TalkingPoker.com Open 8:30 PM ET tonight!
 

I'm curious what kind of interest a last minute Open tournament will generate, so I set one up for tonight.

I'll personally add $25 for the winner. To qualify for the added money, you must post your Stars ID in this thread BEFORE the tournament starts.

See you there!

Bad time for me. Hopefully, you'll get a full table going.

GeoffreyM.

Depends on the turnout though. If more than 1 table I won't have time.

gl, way too late for me

demonstalker

prolly wont make it but just incase.

Can't. :cool:

Darn, hosting my home game tonight.

Doubt I'll be able to make it, but if I can 'TheNextThing'

Will be there
 

Looking forward to playing.

PS this isnt the start of the series of 5 events is it?

Maybe :)

Nah, it's not. But I will be interested to see how many regulars can make it. If it's very few, as it seems to be shaping up to be, we're going to have problems with the series...

Can't do it tonight. No PS account yet, and haven't been able to get the ankle-biters in bed before 9:00 since the time change. :mad:

To those that can't make it - if I had made it later... say... 10:30, then would you be able to play?

Why not? Can't pass up a chance to take more $ from my brother now can I?


Cotter111 on PS

Damn, me too.

But I like it. Tomorrow? 10:30 doesn't help. 8:30 may work because my game doesn't start til 10. Maybe.

TonyCheval (as usual), I'll be there if it's on.

I'll make it if I can.

Short Notice
 

I think the short notice thing hurts. If you map out 5 days (suggest them first) I think you get a larger turnout. If you just say "Hey whats up tonight", us married and otherwise committed folks can not play.

Nope.
Weeknights aren't usually possible for me.

And when they are, it's a last minute thing.

Running this?

I can't find it.

nm I'm just blind.

I'm a gametime decision, depends on the turnout.

I'm in
 

Firestorm23

F the turnout. Get your sissy ass in here. I promise I won't keep you long... :D

LMAO.

Welcome aboard firestorm.

It really depends man. I have a big submission for work to finish up as well, and I gotta be up by 5. 4 players now, if it's under 19 I'm in.

Sleep is for suckers. You're in.

im in
 

ok i am in the tourney i am allduhchips1 on pokerstars....i love these private tourneys because they are low buy in and small fields.....i like any tourney with less than 100 players because i dont generally have the time to devote to playing a 1000 player tourney to completion. thanks for starting this one and maybe i will host one in the future. thx.

You are very welcome. Hopefully you'll stick around the forum too. We have a pretty cool community here...

Ya, I'm in...

Now fuck you too :D

LOL. You guys and your smack talk... I'll tell ya!

I'm winning.

OOOps, I mean,
I'm playing.

Uh, you started it.

Pisshabi you're going down :p .

Shit, it's starting to fill up, I honestly may have to de-register. I can't stay up all night 3 days in a row :( .

HEY! I thought you couldn't make it! Forget it, I'm unregistering.......

Yeah, right. Glad to see you changed your mind, dead money.

my ps acct name
 

Hey recently signed up Ps name is Cabfed

Relax... Even if it's 2 full tables or a little more, it won't take THAT long. And we only have 1 table now with 10 minutes to go.

P.S. I'm Rogue23, for anyone that didn't already know. I want to make sure I qualify for my own added money :)

I can only play until roughly 11, so yeah, as soon as I bust all your asses I guess it won't take me long to count the money, the computer does that for me.

OK, all joking aside, who is taking my $10? ;)

just registered for tourney
 

looking forward to your $25 bucks-

I like this guy.

I am THIS CLOSE to changing Geoff's name on here to SuckoutGeoffM.

You have GOT to be kidding me!

LMAO.

I think someone is a poor loser :D .

I hit a 9 outer for 3K on TP, then hit a 5 outer on another guy for like 3K again.

Cut me some slack, I suck at hold em.

I'm a sore loser, because not much later, I lost over 4k in chips to an all-in TWO outer. You freaking thieves are killing me here. Good thing I had a chip lead early, or I'd be long gone.

Hmm, 2nd.

Time to make a move on first ;) .

It just wasn't meant to be for me tonight. Even got rivered on the hand that finished me off (instead of tripling up).

Geoff's suckout for all his chips stung (he had AT and I had KQs - flop was AKQ and we got all in - you KNOW a Jack hit the board next), but this was the one that killed me:

Sorry guys, I was definately not firing on all cylinders tonight. Hmm, you let Renegade in there after what he did to me on Sunday? :D

Hang in there Geoff... one spot off the money, 3 to go for the win.

In a way, I'm pulling for Lunpy, since he didn't post here, so I can save my 25 bucks :D

I'm out in third.

My oh my, my hold-em game has definately gone south. I sucked out the 2 of 3 showdowns I won and other than blind steals I would've been gone early.

I'm what you call "dead-money" in these tournies.

What are you talking about? You made a buck! LOL.
