Well Done ChipFish, great tournament TP,,,,some good players and play,,,,some dodgy players and supporters, some luck (Fishie) but all in all a great tournament. Should make these regular and have a league system.

I don't know about you guys, but I think the tournament was a big success. I think Stars has a great blind structure for something like this, and it was really enjoyable playing with a bunch of people that all sort of "know" each other. Well, all of them and the New Guy. At least his avatar is easy on the eyes

Default hey

I was actully thinking about the league option, Its a great idea but having enough players with the days off will be tough. If you could make specific days of the week then yes it would work like say wed, sat,sun. That way the weekend guys can play along with the weekday guys but have to make specific events for each day. Say like 3 per day I have a formula I have used on different leagues if you would like it to get the amount of points for each place. TP if you would like to try to do this just leave me a message and I'd be happy to work out the details with you but I know for sure we need alot more people if we actully even want to concider doing this.

Excellent game and VERY good play by Chip Fish and BB. I was rooting for BB, because he's my boy, but Chip Fish deserves everyones respect.

Don't forget Jackass_Man, who (unfortunately) never showed and literally donated his blinds to the rest of us.

lol i signed up, then realized that we were going to play 1/2 NL at my friends house, but i know he plays stars so i signed up anyways nd didnt cancel... i go there and his computer's broken, and we're playing 1/2 nl with 3 of the worst players ive ever met, so i was torn between owning a 10$ fun tourney or $300 in a cash game... so i called a friend nd had him play it for me, he told me he went out donating with KQ pair w/flushdraw vs a set of 2's, when he got checkraised on the turn he moved in for some reason... anyways i just wanted you guys 2 know it wasnt me playing, whether the plays he made were good or bad. tp when do you plan on doing another one of these, i really want 2 play with you guys lol... ill set aside time next time i promise :-P

Congratulations ChipFish. Sounds like the pWo had an interesting weekend to say the least. I was my usual centre of attention this weekend in a club full of 400 people. Boy was I half in the bag that night. Almost got tossed (how does this happen when your buddy bounces there?). Well, in any event, congrats, tough luck about the connection problems. Next time you're all my little bitches though LMAO.

LMAO, sounds good. I actually played a sitngo with ChipFish this weekend and got my clock cleaned. I think he ended up 2nd. Shitty cards I've ever seen and flops weren't hitting the good hands. But PP still made my weekend more than worthwhile .

How late did it run? I wanted to play but didn't get a wink of sleep Saturday and ended up in bed by 8:30 last night.

I was out just after the 1 hour mark and there was 7 left.

I'd guess 2 hours or less total running time.

Ya, I think like a 1:00 start time would be great, allow those in the east to join, and that would be 10 am on the west coast.
