Heads Up Battle Royale Part Deux!
 
I'd like to make this at least a monthly thing, but I don't feel like waiting until the end of March, so let's do it right away!

Talking Poker Forum Heads Up Battle Royale II

Since I didn't end up having to pay the bounty I put on myself - what with me winning the whole thing and all ;) - I am going to place another bounty on my head this time. Here's how it works:

Be the person to eliminate me (Rogue23), and you will win:
$25 if you have 100+ posts*
$15 if you are a member of this forum but have less than 100 posts*
$5 if you are not a member of this forum

*Post count is being determined right NOW, as I am posting this. So there is no need to go on a crazy posting spree over the next 2 days. It will do you no good.

Here's hoping we can get at least 16 people registered for the tourney. We had 18 last time.

DUDE! It's confirmed! You have a great mind, TP! You see, I was thinking the same thing today!

I was about to make a thead just like this and make a tourney for Wed., March 1. I was going to make the first Wednesday of every month Heads Up Battle Royale Day!

This is weird, but Great idea!

I couldn't play in the last one because my computer had a virus, but I'm in this one. Registered and ready to dominate. Just curious how many places got payed last tourney, or was it winner tak all?

Talking Poker 02-27-06 05:44 PM

I like it. The first day of every month it is!

I'll even sweeten the pot a it and let the winner have a custom title for the entire month. I know that's not a bonus for you 1000+ posters, but it's a nice touch for everyone else.

Talking Poker 02-27-06 05:48 PM

4 places got paid. We had 18 players, so 14 people got first round byes. Actually, a better way of looking at it is that 4 people had to play an extra round. Then we went from 16 to 8 to 4 to 2 to 1. And after winning 4 straight matches, yours truly was the grand champion. Not that there was ever any doubt. :rolleyes:

What I am wondering is how who has to play that first buy in round is determined. I was hoping it would be the last people to register (which would encourage people to preregister), but I think it must be random. Well, as random as having 3 Canadians and the big shot bdawg play an extra round can be anyway.

Robbie Robb 02-27-06 08:13 PM

definitely wasn't last people to register as I was one of the first :)

I do, kinda think though, that Nikki & I having to battle WASN'T a coincidence. I'm wondering if they look to see if there are multiple entries from the same IP and punish them :)

That said, I'm in. As soon as I fire up PS to register.

**Also, not to hijack - just as a reminder - WWdN Robbie Robb Invitational TOMORROW night (TUESDAY) at 8:30pm EDT!

PShabi 02-27-06 08:21 PM

First Wednesday of every month.

Talking Poker 02-27-06 09:09 PM

Eh.... either way. April 1st is a Saturday, so yeah, moving it to the 5th would be a good idea.

Nikita 03-01-06 03:38 AM

Well, count me in this one now as well.

I didn't think I'd be able to make as I wanted to build up my bankroll a little more, but don't have to worry about that now, since I took down the MTT I posted about in the Railbird section. :D

Talking Poker 03-01-06 11:35 AM

That's right you did!

Just a little reminder to everyone that this is tonight.

PShabi 03-01-06 01:57 PM

I rarely, RARELY, miss a forum function. However, I must declare myself a game time decision.

Talking Poker 03-01-06 02:53 PM

It's ok to be afraid, pshabi. We won't think any less of you.

Robbie Robb 03-01-06 03:24 PM

Yeah, I did give him quite the spanking in the last one. :D

PShabi 03-01-06 06:18 PM

Whatever, bitch. I know how you think. Your EV goes WAY THE FUCK UP with me out of the way! So, try to soothe me into not registering, huh? I may register and sit out just to spite you!

PShabi 03-01-06 06:20 PM

If going all-in, getting called by a monster, dropping to your knees and praying like an alter boy, only to hit a miracle 4 outer on RiverStars is a "spanking" then you are THE SPANKER!!!!!!!!!!:D

sjay2k 03-01-06 08:05 PM

I'm in!

Robbie Robb 03-01-06 08:07 PM

85 minutes till the cards are in the air! Let's get some more people out for this one! Hurry Hurry HURRY!!!!!

Talking Poker 03-01-06 08:14 PM

Funny thing is, if you do that, you'll probably still outlast bdawg!!! :D

Only 5 registered so far. Weeeeeeeeak. Let's go, people. Don't be scared. Need I remind you about the bounty on me, which makes this +EV for everyone?

eejit101 03-01-06 08:31 PM

Im in. Now everyone is -EV. TP first round please, i think ive made more than 100 posts:D

Tony Cheval 03-01-06 08:47 PM

Hmm yes, and how many outs did you have when you busted me, again? :D

Gordogg 03-01-06 08:56 PM

Well shit, don't really have the roll for this now, but I'm in. Going to take out TP to guarantee myself some cash. ;) :D

Talking Poker 03-01-06 09:09 PM

20 minutes to go, 10 signed up.

Would love to get 6 more.

bdawg31 03-01-06 09:14 PM

bdawg is IN
 
i cant do any worse than the first one (in theory)

Talking Poker 03-01-06 09:17 PM

Hey, who let the dead money in?

13 and counting. Here's hoping for 3 more. If we get more than that, maybe we'll be treated to a Robbie Robb/N1k Round 1 matchup. hehe...

pokerfreak25 03-01-06 09:23 PM
