$.50/1 showdown thread

ATTN: Parasurama, meeloche, noble, Renton, and gametight

We need to figure out the best time for this competition to go down. I live on the east coast in the US but I dont know where some of you live. I would think that a Sunday afternoon (EST) might be the best time for this to take place. Would anyone have any conflicts with that? Something like the 22nd at 2pm EST?
I've suggested a 3 hour 4tabling session to resolve this but I am open to other suggestions, esp. if someone is uncomfortable with this scenario.
Also, I will need 1-2 of the participants to track this in PT or HEM to determine the results. Whats Up?



Also, if anyone else wants to be involved in a session like this on sunday the 15th, just for fun, holla in this thread

you play on stars??

[griffey24]

Sort of! I'm having some problems with them letting me deposit enough funds ($2k max per week/ $3k per month) on stars.

So I'm playing 400nl for the time being, and railing you and sauce at 25/50

[Parasurama]

The 22nd at 2pm EST is perfect

[noble007]

The 22nd at 2pm EST is perfect

Yeah that's cool for me too.

I did suggest on the other thread that it would be better for me dropping down to .5nl if the level doesn't make a difference to you guys & it's just about the results?

[Genitruc]

griffey did you try just emailing them and asking for them to lift your deposit limits?

[Parasurama]

I'm good for 50NL if others agree

[Renton]

im ok with that time frame

[griffey24]

griffey did you try just emailing them and asking for them to lift your deposit limits?

Yaah.. actually the 2k/3k week/month was what they INCREASED it to lol and then I emailed them several other times and their latest email was all this documentation/paper work/identification I need to fax them for them to up it further.

I haven't gotten around to it yet, and I'm not sure how much they will increase it when I do. I mean... it seems odd to me that these sites make it so difficult to deposit large sums of money.

[Alexos]

id play on the 15th if it goes down

[nutsinho]

noble- ive talked to a couple people about this and the decision is that we are gonna stick to 100nl. at first i was leaning towards catering to your request but I don't think that it is the best move.

-this isn't going to be a ridiculous high variance game. I'd say it's highly unlikely that you will be down more than 5 buyins at any point.
-i clearly stated at the beginning of the competition that the 2nd stage would be played at 100nl
-seeing 25 cent chips everywhere puts some of us on tilt

I hope that you are still willing to remain in the competition.

[nutsinho]

also, it seems that the 22nd at 2pm EST is a go for this event.

For the fun game on the 15th I have interest from :
Alexos, griffey, bode, and Renton. Anyone else want in? Is 2pm EST a good time for this as well?

[meeloche]

I'll be there on the 15th as well.

[noble007]

Lol, no worries, thanks 4 considering it and don't worry I'll definitely still be taking part!

This isn't going to be a ridiculous high variance game.

Are you sure? Gl trying to make that 400k from Jan last the entire 3 hours!

I'd like to play in this. Every table of sharks needs a fish to feast on. But I can't say I'm a lock. So consider me a likely sub.

Ill donate to the 15th 2pm est game, but only if someone can tell me what time this is in Brisbane time.

[BigPapi]

if I can be online this sunday evening (i think it's 20h for me), I'll see if I can obtain a seat in this game. Not 100% sure though cause in the afternoon my team is playing their rivals

looks like theres a lot of interest...instead of just doing a few tables with the first 5 customers then ill probably sit at 6 or so tables and give everyone a chance to get on a few of them. Everyone should click 'sit out' until the table is full of FTR players. if randoms sit down we will just tell them there is no action for them and they generally will leave pretty quickly. I will try to get on the tables at 2pm sharp or possibly a couple minutes earlier and you can use the search function to go directly to my tables (thanks stars for improving the search tool). if you participate in this please be prepared to play for at least 2 hours, otherwise its going to be really gay for everyone when you leave and there are 5 randoms on the waiting list that we have to dismiss.

[nutsinho]

also if your stars name is not obvious then please state it ITT so we know who you are
