LOL - grinding away at 1c-2c. I started w/ $2.99, got it up to $4.05. Big pre-flop raise w/ QQ. Call. 593 flop. Big bet, Call. J turn. I go all-in ... putting a good read on the guy w/ overcards. He calls... AQ... catches his ace on the river.
So, I'll need you to transfer me $5.25 prior to our matchup.

What are you talking about? If you transfer me the money, and you win, then you'll win the money back. MINUS a quarter.
Hello, McFly!?

LOL - I now right.
I can't deposit the money myself - I think the min deposit is 50... but all of my money is tied up on Party.

Umm... yes, I'll win MY money back, but what about the $5 you were supposed to put up that I should have won? LOL... I think you should go arond Stars challenging people to play for $1000 heads up. Then tell them they need to transfer you the $1000 first, so you can play them. But fear not - if they beat you, they'll get THEIR $1000 back!!! How could anyone ever pass up on a great deal like that???
HELLO??? You're one of a kind, dude. |

YEA RIGHT.
I don't believe I ever said that... ...maybe I was under the influence of a substance.

I can tell math wasn't one of your strong suits.
Ok - say I deposit $50, so I play you in this SnG. Hypothetically, if you win, then you'll win my $5, and that's not part of the deal, Turbo.

TP, you better stop this arguing or your going to be playing for $100 instead of $50 when Lou hits his 1000th post still trying to work out these details.

Devil's advocate
But I thought the $50 from TP was added money so if you bought in for $5.25 each you would actually get $60 total,his $50 and the $10 in the pot.

He's either drunk, stupid, or maybe a little of both. I guess I need to spell this all out very clearly. Maybe if I type r e a l l y s l o w l y, genius boy will be able to follow along.
LOU: You suggested we play in a $5+.25 SNG. Fine by me (I'll play you in a $100 heads up tourney, if you like). I asked: You responded with this: Since you said we are ADDING the buy ins, I took that to mean that was additional money we would be playing for (even thought the rest of your statement was incorrect, as this does help your EV). So, I figured this is where we are at: $5+.25 buy in each = $10 in "prize pool." ON TOP OF $0 transferred to me if I win or $50 transferred to you if you win. Are you still with me, math major? Everything look ok? But now you are asking me to front the entire additional $10 prize pool. That's fine, since you can't seem to scrape up 5 bucks, but all I asked was how am I supposed to get the additional $5 you'll owe me when I win. For some reason you seem to think I wouldn't be entitled that that $5 of yours, and that by me winning MY OWN MONEY BACK, I will have somehow received your $5. Um.......... yeah. Ahhh... now I see this quote from you: Reading THAT tells me you don't want the $5 to be "on top of" the other money (which was helping your EV, remember), even though you had earlier said we'd both be adding money. I guess you need to make up your mind. So, if THAT is the case (treating the buys ins as part of the original deal), that brings us to this: $5+.25 buy in each (paid by me) = $10 in "prize pool." ON TOP OF $0 transferred to me if I win or $40 transferred to you if you win. Maybe instead of throwing around insults, you could have tried to clearly explain how you wanted to handle this... Anyway, this leads me to this question: Will Stars allow a $5.25 transfer? Isn't the minimum $10? Do you seriously not have enough mopney in the entire world to come up with $50 to fund your Stars account? Can't you take some of that money you have "tied up in Poker Room" and move it to Stars? You're freaking killing me here! |

Since the $5.25 seems to be such an issue, why not go back to the play money heads up match. Bugsy's club/Pokerpages (free part) has a good tourney structure and if Lou doesn't have that site TP has a link to it so would even be helping him out a little more there. Then if Lou wins transfer whatever amount you decide on through whateveer account you want.
This is funny but I would have to compare it to Dennis Miller doing a play-by-play of a root canal. Play some poker already!!

If this is true... then $5.25 is way more than your bankroll can support.
I wonder if If I were to mouth off to Phil Ivey about how bad I would whoop him in a game "IF" I had the entry, people would start to believe it. The moderator votes that if there is one more post about this challenge by anyone not fully willing to fund their own entry then all previous postings by said person be checked to see if they are worthy for the 10cents per post eligibility. Anyone care to second that?

I'm probably in the vast minority here and if you don't agree with me don't bother telling me how stupid I am, we just disagree. This isn't some big corporation giving something away, I think we all understood coming in that it was one guy trying to start up a forum and shelling out cash out of his pocket and maybe, just maybe we should all have a bit of understanding. The other side says "hey he promised me xxx amount of money and now he ows it to me", well I get it, but let's look at the big picture here. Almost all of us came from RGP and this is a giant step up the food chain from that hell hole, YOU WERE POSTING ANYWAY and now are gonna get a few bucks in the deal. If your plan was to post here, take his $25 and turn it into a fortune, well that wasn't gonna happen, face it. This was for fun and money makes it fun.
If this were my decision I would post a set of rules I was comfortable with as far as the heads up matches go and everyone would play by the same set of rules, with the possible exception that the buy-in (that each side put up their own) could be negotiated. If your on the other side, well your right too, TP did promise the money for the posts and if you followed the rules then yes he owes you, I mean your word is your word, but let just take a step back and look at the big picture and exactly what we are dealing with here, if you came here just to run up a bunch of posts and worry about $25 of $30 or $50, well, hhmmmm...... I am not playing on a gigantic bankroll here either where I can just say $50 is chump change, but if the deal was I had to go back to RGP after getting the money then TP could keep it and I'd stay here.

I don't think you're in the minority at all, Penguinfan. Everything you said makes sense (same goes for ChipFish).
And in case I ever was unclear, I never even once suggested that I wouldn't pay Aeq what I "owe" him. I only said that if he wanted to play me heads up, sure, I'd be all for it, but he can only "double" up to $50, and not $60. That's it. Then it got blown into this huge thing.... Had I realized ahead of time that Aeq's bankroll coun't support a $5.25 buy-in, things would have taken a far different direction. |
