Arrow $100 Freeroll for TalkingPoker.com Posters!

We've had a lot of fun when we've all played together in the past, so let's do it again. But this time, how about if I pony up ALL the cash, and we have ourselves a good old fashioned freeroll???

I haven't set it up yet, but it will be on on either 11/30 or 12/1, probably after 9 PM ET. That's when you guys have said in the past is best for you. I'll update this post in a few days after I decide on an exact date and time.

In order to keep this amongst friends, there are going to be some easy to meet requirements for getting in: For the month of November (yesterday will be included), people need to make a certain number of ***** reasonable quality, poker related posts *****. The number of posts you need to make depends on how much you have contributed in the past. If you've made 5000 or more posts, you're already in - woohoo, that's me! Here are the requirements for everyone else (Pre-November Post Count, Number of quality posts you need to make in November):

Post Count ----- November Posts Required To Play
1000+............... 5
500-999............ 10
200-499............ 15
50-199.............. 20
<50.................. 50

So as you can see, for those that have been posting here regularly, this will be a piece of cake. Even for those who have only posted occasionally, making 20 posts isn't hard at all. But for any brand new people who see this and want to take part in the freeroll, they are going to have to make 50 posts. That might sound like a lot, but making 50 posts is actually quite easy.

BTW, regarding the "quality" part. I'm not expecting long essasy and that sort of thing. All I'm saying is I don't want to count the no-brainer posts, like making NFL picks, one line insults, Railbird updates, "Me too," "I always lose with AA!" and so on. The final judge of "quality" is me.

So, once you think you've made the required number of quality posts, PM me and I'll send you the touney password so you can register. Do NOT share the password with anyone else - that kills the point of this whole thing, which is to reward the contributors around here.

If all goes well, we'll do this again next month - with a bigger prizepool.

Probably not... when I polled everyone in the past, weeknights were a lot more popular than weekends. Sorry.

Looks like I'm going to miss out on this one. I'll try to post 50 but I don't want mindless posts connecting with my name haha. Wish you all luck. I busted out on PS awhile ago so I'm always looking for ways to get a bankroll going again there. Glad TP has successfully arranged this with PS I don't see many private FREErolls so thanks in advance for the next one!

oh, one other thing:

to minimize the number of sitouts, password sellers and the like, id suggest you post the password no more than 30mins before gametime...

(excepting of course PMing of the regulars on this forum in advance)

just my two cents.

hi, i am new to the forum and just want to introduce myself. i have been playing on PS for almost a year now and saw the freeroll in the private section and thought i'd check out the forum. 50 posts does seem like a lot but it definitely will weed out a lot of people that dont contribute to the forum. i will give it a shot and maybe see u guys at the tables at the end of the month. i go by drkneenie on PS also.

I know this is kind of late but as an extra reward...if one is help monthly then you could hold sort of a bounty on those players chose by TP but only people that could win the bount were those people making say 100 valuble posts in that months span.....

it is really confusing

also to let you know im good at poker

also i want to get in the pker tournement

so i getting the hang of this site

Do NOT multiple post like that. I merged your posts (this time). It WILL NOT get you into the freeroll so don't waste your time.
