Let's make it tough.............starting chip count is 1,000 and not the usual 2,000. Start the blinds at 25/50 and ante up starting at level 3.

Then we will see who the big fish is and not just a little guppy

[ChipFish]

Ahhh I see now.
You like crapshoots, and don't particularly enjoy playing poker....
I'm out of Absolute Poker right now, (Won a $20 multi, and placed 5th in a $20 multi here out of 3 trys....)
but will be back on Party when they offer the reload.
How's about we up the starting stacks to 10,000 and play 2 hour levels
starting at 25/50?
Don't you find the better players do a little better when there is room to maneuver (sp)?


Where are you from Taz?
Toronto Canada here.

10,000 stacks!?!?!?! I want a challange, not a cake walk.

I'm not afraid to play against anyone. I like to gamble and love the challange. 1,000 chip stacks with starting blinds at 25/50 does just that. Make you play on the top of your game

BTW, I am from Long Island, NY

We'll have to meet in Niagara at some point then.

You and Chip keep going back and forth ... this silly banter is getting old. Smells like a heads up match might be in order.

lol chip!

anyways... online tourneys are already crapshoots as it is and 1K stacks will just make it more of a crapshoot. Thats fine you like to 'gamble' but also its taking the skill out of the game when you have to play allin poker with any hand you get dealt lol.

[ChipFish]

Absolutely...
The more chips to start and the more time to play with them...
Equals more time for ChipFish to gobble your chips...
The more I shop around the more I like UB and Absolute for their Tourney blind structures..... The Stars 350k is good too. Also The PPM on party was excellent if you had the full 3k to start...(which you should if you were going to play)

On the other side of the coin though, I have been stockpiling T$ at Stars with the $10+1 rebuy turbos....
Does anyone think there may be a run for the WSOP in Chip's Future???

[Tony Cheval]

I've done all right in the couple Absolute tourneys I've managed to get in. Unfortunately, for some wierd reason my older box (this one) won't load tournament tables, though the ring games work fine. Finally had to download the software to my gaming rig, works fine there.

[tazmision89]

It was merely a suggestion. However, I don't think that a tourney should start with an overwhelming amount of chips. Most tourneys I play in, whether it be LIVE or ONLINE start off with 2K to 4K in chips. Either way makes no difference to me.

But if ChipFish wants a slow death, then I will be more then happy to help him out

Heads up battle..........hmmmmmmmmmmm sounds interesting.
