Talking Poker NLHE MTT?

[PShabi]

Fear, does not exist, in this dojo, does it?

Bring it on! I've been trying to line up a game with someone, anyone on this site all weekend.

Don't let me intimidate you. Although I will go Joe Willie Namath style and make a prediction about the result of this tourney:

PSHABI













EVERYONE ELSE

[ChipFish]

How about next weekend It's Mrs. ChipFish's Birthday this weekend.

[SirFWALGMan]

Ok. Come on over to my 5/10 6-Max game one night and we can get it on!

[GeoffM]

Oo, how kinky LMFAO !

[PShabi]

Don't play 5/10, and definitely don't play 6 max.

Anyway, I can't account for the other 4 players we're sitting with. You'll prolly pull a "matador" on me and be winking and blinking and fidgeting and flicking and I'll get schooled by your team.

I'll be playing a shit ton of party 2/4 badbeats tonight, so why don't you look me up son?

I'll turn off my search block just for you.

Anyway, let's wait til tourney time, if you cowards ever decide to step up, and we'll see what happens. I'd be down to play a 5-10 man tourney tonight if anyone wants to set one up on Stars.

[johnbaker]

i for sure want to play this, but i need to get some money on stars first. TP can you set a date for sure so i can know when to get some money by? i know 2 guys who play stars, and i think theyre both broke on stars right now, so i might need 2 get a trade from someone on here (i can trade partypoker or paypal money). if anyone can trade me some stars money, please pm me, thx.

[SirFWALGMan]

I do not play on Party so I have no access to the BBJ tables. I would love to play some 2/4 with you. I was just smoking ya a little, but it would really be fun to play some poker with you!!

[ChipFish]

January 30th. Pokerstars.
Mr. TalkingPoker sir, would you like to set it up?
Or shall I.
The only way to get this thing going is to just do it.

$10+1.
Whoever can't make it for whatever reason can play in the next one.

This gives everyone enough time to save up their bottle refunds and deposit to Stars.

[SirFWALGMan]

Just tell me when it is up there. I now will have the TP Invitational for $10, and the Blogger Tourney on Feb 2nd. Thats $30 of my initial $50 deposit to stars. So that leave ten bucks to waste in Freerolls and low-level-limit. Or I could play 1 hand of 10/20! lol. Any good freerolls on Pokerstars?

[Aequitas58]

Freerolls? Not really, unless you have a good amount of FPPs and you consider those types of buy-ins "freerolls." If you have $20 left, and you want to play low limit, you won't find a problem at Stars. I think the NL goes as low a $.01/$.02, and the limit starts at $.02/$.04. For MTT action, there are buy-ins ranging from $1, $3, $5+$.50 and up.

Being a competant limit player, I would suggest taking the $20 and building it at the $.25/$.50 tables.

See you at the tournament.

[PShabi]

I was just blowing smoke too.

I like how you "want to play me" after you saw my hand history posts in the other thread.

Has you chomping at the bit huh?

I didn't think I was that bad!

I can't wait to play against anyone and everyone on this site. Be nice to be able to associate "some game" with the name.

I'm always chasing bragging rights.

[omahilo]

lets set it up Jan 30th... like 1 PM or whenever. Just someone make it and whoever shows shows.... we should get 15-20 aleast I think... maybe even a few strays lol.

[Aequitas58]

Another thing to consider... whether to password protect the tournament. This way, we can guarantee that only forum members can get in the tournament.

If there is no password protection, then any random Joe Sixpack can click on "Private" tournies and just register at will. This has it's advantages, because then the prize pool will be higher...

So I guess, collectively, we should decide to keep it just between us, or have it open to all.

[johnbaker]

i beg 2 differ buddy;

as helmouth said about stu ungar in his last wsop, this is going to be a tournament for 2nd place. stu.... er, I've already won

[Talking Poker]

I COULD set a date, but I'd really rather you guys do it. If I absolutely can't make it, I'll speak up, but otherwise, I'll make it happen on my end. THIS coming weekend is no good for me... but after that, I should be able to make it happen. You guys decide when, and what the buy in is, and I'll set it up... probably on Stars.

I vote for a $10 buy in (for this first one) any time after this coming weekend. I may or may not add money to the prizepool, but I will definitely put a bounty on my own head!

Ok boys - figure out the details!

[junYUN]

$10 buy in, and i don't see why january 30th wouldn't work for me. i'm sure if you simply said it will be jan. 30th then people can plan for it and make it happen.

[Aequitas58]

January 30 puts us in the middle of a PartyPoker deposit bonus. Since everyone would probably want to consolidate their bankrolls and re-deposit on Party to gain the max bonus, maybe we should have the tournament after?

I wouldn't say anything if PokerStars allowed a deposit for $11, allowing entry to the tournament, but I believe the minimum deposit is $50. I dunno about you, but I'd rather have that $50 earning a bonus.

Anyone else? Thoughts?

[PShabi]

January 30 is fine. Seriously, you guys should be able to come up with $50 unless you're a college student or younger.

[omahilo]

you can deposit on party for the max bonus then withdraw I believe... unless you need all the money for the limit you play. Could withdraw $50 then put it on stars for the tourney.
