AGN Poker Tournament - Updated

I'm interested. That will be a lot of fun!

yep.

I may have to knock up something for the winner's postbit as an incentive for winning.

I'm game.

I don't know how to play poker.

Any if anyone makes fun of me, I'll stab you.

So I'll wear a low cut top and be a cheerleader for Glitch, cause he's my homeboy.

I'll give it a try.

I will play, depending on the time and format.

I may be interested, but it depends on the time and format like Beldaran said. I wouldn't want to play for money though, only for fun.

I'll do it.

I'll be more than happy to kick all your asses. Sure.

Count me in.

where, when, and for how much?

And mooie, I'll make sure glitch wins if you sit on my lap.

It will most likely be a free tournament, with some sort of forum based incentive (i'm thinking a trophy in the postbit, like the arcade reward.) Setting up a cash game would be difficult, as it would limit the players, either by people not wanting to pay a buyin, or not having a way to transfer the buyin to me. The format will be No Limit Texas Hold 'em, with a starting stack of, lets say, $1500. The rounds(blind structure) will be determined when we get a final head count. If there are more players, the rounds will be longer. It will be a pre-registration tournament, and if there is money involved, it will most likely be no rebuys/addons. Thats what i'm trying to find out here, Beldaran and Vegeta, let me know what sort of structure you would like, and i'll work towards something that will make everyone happy. The date, once again, is one of those things.

If anyone knows a good server based poker program, can you let me know so i can try it out?

Of course I'm in, but I work some funky hours. The further out its planned the easier it'll be for me to nail down the time.

Goki, I have used pokerstars.net before and it's not bad. Check it out and see if that would work for you.

Pokerstars won't work for one reason. We'd all be scrambling for the table before someone else joined. I need a program that one of us can host, and we can connect to a private table via IP address.

Check Partypoker.net and FullTilt Poker.

Oh I thought pokerstars had a private room feature. It's been a while since I was on there.

Not that i'm aware of. Unless i've missed it.

This is a great idea, I would love to play.

My preferred structure for a $1500 tourney is $25/$50 blinds, doubling every 30 minutes, with no rebuys. Of couse since we're not playing for real cash I'm willing to play almost everything.

I'm down. It would probably be best to do it on a night in the states, as less people would be working.

Deal.

Well, I work from 9am - 5pm USA Pacific Time, monday through friday. I am willing to play anytime after that as long as I don't have to stay up past midnight on a weeknight.

So basically any time at all on a friday or saturday is fine, as long as it's not something rediculous like it starts at 2:30am pacific time. 😊

I'm in.
And I believe PokerRoom.com supports free custom tourneys, if not, you can e-mail and get one I think.
I would suggest a friday night.

i'm cool with friday night too.

Hey Guys! Im sorry I haven't been here in a while. I have been working 12 hour shifts 6 days a week so I won't be able to play this time. After this summer I won't be working so much so if this works out maybe we can do one in the fall. If so I'm game. We could also alternate between poker game types.

Count me in. Hey does any one have a vent server? That would be awesome for this. Plus I have not played poker for ages and don't remember most of the details on how to play and such... and if we are playing for money.... Im crunched as it is.... (losing 300 dollars in a poker game + 250$ a month for my new comp + 94$ A MONTH 57 IN. Television monitor + 80ish$ a month digital cable, cable internet + 38$ a month various video and audio equip. = OH SHIT! at 8$ an hr part time)

If I remember, I will.
