$5 TP Tourney on 7/11 - Money Added/Bounties/Etc!
 

It's been a while since we've had a big TP Private tourney, so let's do this right - with ADDED MONEY!!!

I want to encourage non-members to come play in the tourney with us (hopefully we'll get some out of it), so this tourney is open to everyone.... New members will be eligible for prizes and added money, but in order to reward long time members, they will be eligible for MORE bonus money.

For the purposes of the rest of this post, Members and Non-Members (aka New Members!) will be definied as follows:

Members: If you were a registered user of this site and made at least 25 posts BEFORE 7/5/07, you are a Member.

Non Members: Everyone else.


Bounties/Prizes

1. Bounty on me (Rogue23 on Stars): Knock me out of the tourney, and get $10 if you are a member. Everyone else gets $5 for knocking me out.

2. Win a pot with 72o in the tourney: $20 for members and $10 for everyone else. The hand MUST go to showdown in order to qualify for the bounty. The first person to pull this off and post the hand in this thread is the winner.

3. Get knocked out holding Aces: $20 for members and $10 for everyone else. The first person who gets busted while holding AA gets this prize. Don't muck if you lose - You must show the hand! Again, just post the HH in this thread.


Money Added

Sucks to Be You Award: Be the first player busted and get your buy in back: $5. Open to everyone.

3rd place: $5. Members Only.

2nd place: $10. Members Ony.

1st place: $5-$55

The added money for first place will depend on the winner's post count (as of right now - 7/5/07), like so:
1000+ posts: $55
500-999 posts: $40
100-499 posts: $25
25-99 posts: $15
1-24 posts: $10
0 posts: $5

Hopefully, by setting it up like this, new players will want to come play with us, but the long time members and big contributers around here will still be the most rewarded. At least that's my intent. There is a total of $35 (7 buy ins) of extra money available for people who have never even visited this site before and $125 (25 buy ins!) extra available for long time members. This is on top of the regular prize pool, of course.


Fine Print
In order to be eligible for ANY of the above payouts, you MUST post your Poker Stars name in this thread before the tourney begins (do it when you register so you don't forget). That way, not only will I be able to determine who is eligible for what prize, but we will all be able to look here to see who's who, since Stars names don't always match TP names. And yeah, it sucks to be the people who were too lazy to read this far. :rolleyes:

Banned Members and Members with Red (negative) Rep at the time the tourney begins are not eligible for any prize money.

2 things, well 3 I guess

1) I'm in
2) fr-vpfrt
3) if you can make edits to the description of the tourney TP, then I suggest you put the URL of the forum in there for those who are too lazy to use google (yes, they exist. although we may not want them...)

Not allowed, per Poker Stars rules.

My name on stars is a secret that will never be revealed. JD is pretty sneaky tho, maybe he knows it. mayhem45

BTW - for those in need of money on Stars to play in this, if you have money on Full Tilt, I may be able to hook you up with some $10 trades or something so you can play. I'll make a new thread in the backer section and we can sort it out there.

Members only.
