Sorry guys. I said I was in before, but I'm out now. I was just offered a new job that starts a week before this starts. My schedule is changing from completely free to unsure. Plus when taking on a new job, I like to be more cautious with my funds, just in case. I will still be playing poker but probably not as much and for smaller stakes. But, if you got a tourney going on when I've nothing better to do, I may come around and watch.

Im in, Ive an idea that whoever sets this up may like to take on, whatever site you use for the tournys it may be worth all forum members who join deposit the entrace fee 20 tournys at $5 or $10 whatever is decided into TPs account and TP shares out the prizes at the end, this way you can run all the tournys as freerolls and that way we dont have to give PS anything. It may mean we play against non member players but we base the result on were member finish, and we may get some more good members intrested in thr forum
Jeees my spilling is crup

well
if we happen to be up against a non forum memeber it will totally destroy the point scale we are gonna be using. Its interesting Idea but also we dont expect each memeber to make every single torney. Some may have things come up or whatever so they might be paying for a torney they dont even show up for. This will work trust me the only thing is we need to get to 30 people or so to get this to work. TP....I dont have the points to set up tornies so kinda need you to do that each time. If all you can do is the $10 private tornies then that buy in amount is fine by me. BB will have a schedule set up so you can get them up early before you and B-dog go win those tornies. the only other thing that kinda worries me is the how many people show up we cant run it unless 15 people show up for each torney any less it will have to be voided in the point race for the leaugue. |

Can you set up private tournies were we pay the host before hand and no non members can enter then. the password thing will be broken again I feel unless we pay someone a entrance fee and this is split at the end.

k
I read this like 4 times and didnt get what you mean, I may just be dumb but dont get what you are saying. Host im guessing means pokerstars, if we set up private pay torney and a password we wont get anyone that dosent belong im sure of this. I also like the fact that each torney the players who play the best win something its like a extra boost to play your best. Dont want someone in the mindset of well its ok there is nothing at stake but a couple of points I might miss, this way not only is there a 1 point difference between 5-6 but also a money value. |

I "think" he means we all give TP the money for the entries up front and then we just play in private non-buyin tourneys and split the pot up at the end.
No winners for each event, but also no rake.. Another way to do this ( I am concerned about the # of players per event as well-it would suck to have a bunch of 4-6 player SH SNGs as events) would be to make it so the top 1-2 in each event qualify for an end of "season" event. The league fees could finance these free entris into a $50+$5 tourney at the end and then other people could still buy in if they don't qualify. The won entries would be paid through TP so you have the money prior to the final event. More of a WPT style tour than a league though. Maybe that is something else to try another time or maybe it might work better for this.

Ok... i will get my coat.
What i am trying to say is = if 20 members say they are intrested and we must play an min of 15 games @ $5 a game, we all transfer $75 into TPs account. Because it will be hard to ever get us all to play at all the times, we set up 20 freeroll tournys on PS which will be password protected but enable certain non members to play if we need to achieve the PS playing figures. Yes we may have to play against chancers and spoilers, but this will show what we are as inderviduals made of. There is no cash prize on offer for each game so not many chancers will bother to enter. At the end of the 20 comps we tot up the league scores based on those members that entered the $ comp ant TP pays out the prizes, The benefit of this also means forum members that dont want to play for $ can/may play if we like them too.

like it
I like this idea alot, I think this is the best idea for our league. I also like the fact that we can let non payers in at last minute if we need to. Maybe like we could hold contest that week and the prize is entry into league for following week. wow thats a great idea didnt even cross my mind way to go.

Good luck with that. I just don't see it happening. With a month notice and a FREEROLL, we barely clear that. No way are you going to get near that number if you do the optional "Play in the ones you want" format.
