This Melting Pot of Poker Double game has an extra added BONUS or Booty..which ever you wish to call it. We are asking each Admin of the 5 different forums to contribute 10$ to add to a BONUS game. The winner of the Bonus game will recieve the BONUS which is up to 20$ right now. Should be 50$ by Wed. In order to win the bonus the Winners forum Admin had to have contrib. to it. This should be pretty exciting and make the cash very nice!

Heres how it will work...say 50 people played each tourny. In each tourny the winner would get 50 points, 2nd would get 49, 3rd would get 48, 4th would get 47... all the way down to last place getting 1 point. You do this for both tournys and whoever has the best combined score wins the $25 or $50, whatever the prize is. Say you get 1st and 11th, you'd get 50 points for your 1st place finish and 40 for your 11th place finish for a total of 90 points.
That was an example. This added to the regular prize pool will be a nice win!!
Thank you Talking Poker for your 10$!!!

CalifNaughti 01-29-08 11:28 AM

The BONUS for this game is now at 30$!!! :thumbsup: This is in addition to what ever you win! Not a bad first place price for the best score of 2 games! Im waiting on 2 other forums and if they agree it will be 50$!!

Should be alot of fun! Lets see some TPF players sign up! :);)

MAYHEM45 01-29-08 12:26 PM

VeryMoonFunk 01-29-08 02:19 PM

this is exactly what I thought when I saw this thread.

CalifNaughti 01-29-08 03:18 PM

Absolutly!!! Slow roll me all ya want! :D:) ;)

bunny 01-29-08 04:34 PM


Are you serious?

You do recall last night's conversation, right...and the difference between *slow playing* &/or *slow rolling*?


:confused:

CalifNaughti 01-29-08 04:51 PM

I think we are all joking around here. :)

VeryMoonFunk 01-29-08 05:02 PM

I'm super serious.

CalifNaughti 01-29-08 05:09 PM

I think you guys are beating a dead horse to death. wasnt this taken care of last night. If you want to hold a grudge on a connection problem go ahead go feel free.

skippy76 01-29-08 07:10 PM

Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now
I'd be smilin'

CalifNaughti 01-30-08 09:47 AM

Is there late registration?

CalifNaughti 01-30-08 10:09 AM

I have no idea but maybe like a few minutes there might be, you know how Stars is ..Just register now :)

Talking Poker 01-30-08 01:01 PM

Would be strange if two of the forums didn't put up money toward the bonus. If the would be bonus winner is from one of those forums, they don't get the money and it goes to the next best finisher, right?

Existing TP Members are elibigle for the bonus!

If even one forum doesn't kick in the 10 bucks, you have my permission to post in the appropriate thread there (the one about this tourney), and tell those player that if they become active members here, they are welcome to play for us NEXT time. Obviously, it's not fair to current TP members for them to get a shot at a bonus from us when they aren't members here yet, but if they do get stiffed from their forum admin, they are welcome to come to a better forum where the admin actually cares about them. :thumbsup:

P.S. I assume you (Cali) will determine who earns the Bonus and will post it here, so I know who to ship too, right? Not knowing who is playing for what forum and so on, I'd have no way of knowing who is eligible... and I don't really feel like doing the math either. :rolleyes:

CalifNaughti 01-30-08 01:56 PM

If the winner is not eligiable because the forum didnt contribute it goes to the next qualiying winner in line. The math will be done to determine who has the most points and the winner of that will get the entire Bonus,

I will let the people at the forum know that they can join here and become eligable for Bonus as long as they are active. Active members are the best. :);) I agree completely with everything you said there in the post. I will post outcome tommorow.:) I can ship 10$to the winner and you can pay me back at Stars, the winner will want their Bonus right away. :) This ok with you?

I would like to keep this game Melting Pot Double Game for every Wed. Up to you or the members to donate/contribute the 10$(1$ each isnt bad) to win the Bonus each week.

I hope you plan on playing tonight!:);):)

Talking Poker 01-30-08 02:57 PM

I'm registered. Hopefully I can make it.

And sure, send the Bonus money to the winner and I'll reimburse you. Actually, I can send it to you now if you want. Just make sure you send it to the right person - if their forum admin didn't pony up ahead of time, it needs to go to the next best finisher (making it more likely someone here will win it).

CalifNaughti 01-30-08 03:05 PM

You can send it to CalifNaughti (redding) on Stars. I know who is who and who belongs where pretty much. I'm right on top of it. :)

Talking Poker 01-30-08 03:16 PM

Shipped.

GL to all who play. Let's have a TP person win this bonus money, shall we?????

CalifNaughti 01-30-08 05:03 PM

Quick update!!! BONUS is at 40$!!!! :)

Let's see some signups! ;)

New Guy 01-30-08 05:50 PM

Dude your the best!!!!!! CLASSIC

CalifNaughti 01-30-08 06:15 PM

Ok everyone BONUS hit 50$ !!!!
Thats a nice size bonus for the winner! Winner of total points from both games gets the bonus! Sign up!

Nikita 01-30-08 06:59 PM

I'm registered.

I also want to say that these weekly tournies are a blast and I'm glad you set them up each week. It's always nice to have a more social game of poker once in a while.

PokerRef 01-30-08 07:11 PM

Heres the way to look at who gets the most points. This is how Cali will be figuring it out. This is ONLY an example

Right now the games each have 11 registered. If it ended with only 11 then the points would be:

1st - 11
2nd - 10
3rd - 9
4th - 8
5th - 7
6th - 6
7th - 5
8th - 4
9th - 3
10th - 2
11th - 1

If the game ends up with 22,
1st - 22
2nd - 21
3rd - 20
4th - 19
.
.
.
.
20th - 3
21st - 2
22nd - 1

It is also possible for each game to get a different amount of points... if game one has 30 players the winner gets 30 points, if the 2nd game only has 25 players, the winner gets 25...

Points earned from games 1 and 2 are added together and whoever has the highest combined point total wins the $50 bonus.
