Reminder:

I want to modify this a bit. If coordinating schedules is difficult or if both players would simply rather only play one match for whatever reason, that is fine with me. They simply need to agree to this ahead of time and both post saying so before their match begins.

Oh, and remember: You are playing to make the money now. Win a Round 3 match and you are guaranteed to cash...

Okay. One last time. I'm available Sunday morning until noon. Anytime. 3AM? fine. 7AM? fine. 11:47 1/2? fine. Someone just put up a time, please!!

Penguinfan 08-14-05 12:37 AM


I should be on by 7:00AM here in the East and can play till about noon so hopefully we can hook up.

I'll PM you when I get on-line in the morning.

robthedlphin 08-14-05 09:08 AM

It's on! Finally!

Round 1 is finally complete.

Remember, for the brackets, any "rchamberlin" picks will get credit for Penguinfan wins.

Hopefully we can complete Round 2 today: Penguinfan vs. yellowcab and Zybomb vs. lightfungus.

PShabi 08-14-05 12:31 PM

Looks like I'm in the hole $5 to you TP. My final 4 is completely out and I believe we had a bet about one of my pics winning.

We'll see how the other bet pans out first.

Penguinfan 08-14-05 07:21 PM

I'm still looking for YellowCab. PM'd him earlier and I should be around most of the night tonight.

Talking Poker 08-14-05 11:19 PM

Hopefully he'll turn up soon. He certainly is entitled to a couple day extension though, since he didn't have an opponent for 6.5 of the 7 days in Round 2.

Penguinfan/yellowcab - what's the deal with your Round 2 match? I'm hoping we can get it in the books soon, since Round 3 is this week and requires THREE matches....

I know ahut3r is anxiously waiting his opponent.

Round 2 is complete!

The remaining participants are just one step away from making the money...

Remember, Round 3 is supposed to be three matches, but if both participants agree to play just one match (and post saying so), that's fine.

Good luck everyone.

The Final 4 is set!

Congratualtions to everyone still alive for making the money. Win one more match, and you'll have yourself a lucky TP hat (plus more cash, of course). Wooohooo!

Now let's get these semi-final matches under way!

2Tone 08-25-05 01:08 AM

Tough schedules
 
yellowcab had to cancel our match tonight. We're trying for Friday night.

Congrats to 2Tone for making the finals.

ChipFish 08-30-05 03:21 PM

Go 2Tone Go!!!!
I would be happy to have been beat by the Champ of this thing.
:D

Talking Poker 09-02-05 12:06 PM

Any word on this, guys? Considering the final matches was supposed to have been completed 2 days ago, I'm hoping we can wrap this up soon and then see if there is interest in doing it again...

Zybomb 09-02-05 01:52 PM

I am totally in the dark as to the situation. The lease on my duplex ended 8-31, I was supposed to be back in NY over a week ago, yet the work being done on my car is taking forever. The guy doing the work is TERRIBLE about getting back to me (can take 1-2 days sometimes) and multiple obstacles have come up which continue to delay my trip. Its really pissin me the fuck off too, but 700 dollars for an engine from a junkyard and someone to put it in, is a shitload better than the 2900 the shops are trying to charge me. I am saying that I am expecting a call any day (including later today) and once I get that call I am leaving the very next day to drive home. So I could be home as early as tomorrow ready to play, either then or the next day -- however with as much in the dark as I am, it could be several days for all I know -- all I know is that this work was supposed to be done by now, so I am expecting very soon -- yet again for all I know it may be a few days.

If you want to advance GreenBuckets to the finals thats fine, circumstances beyond my control.

Or if you'd prefer to set a date in which this match has to be completed by and if I am unavailable by then Greenbuckets advances thats fine also

Of course if you wanna wait until Im ready thats fine too :D

Either way its understandable

Sorry for holdin this up

Talking Poker 09-02-05 02:11 PM

Well, you obviously have some sort of internet connection wherever you are... Can you not play from there?

Zybomb 09-02-05 06:49 PM

I am on my (old) roomates labtop, he has a wireless internet connection which sometimes goes on and off -- I can give it a shot, the only problem is the connection can go down occassionally, and disconnect as well. I'll give it a shot though -- he said he wouldnt mind if I DLed Bugsy Club -- Green Buckets PM me (or respond) a good time tonight or tomorrow and I'll attempt to be there

Zybomb 09-04-05 06:45 PM

Ok first off sorry GreenBuckets if you got my PM in time yesterday, the wireless internet was not working --I apologize

The good news is I got my car back today and will be driving back to NY tomorrow. I should be able to play after 10 PM EST or anytime Tuesday. Hopefully we'll finish this up and get the final match between Me/Buckets and 2Tone underway.

Buckets PM me

And again sorry for holdin this up guys

Zybomb 09-09-05 04:43 PM

Finally the tournament has reached the finals

Zybomb vs 2Tone

Edit: If Greenbuckets had won, not only would 2Tone have won the Bracket Side Bet, but also had a shot at winning the tourny -- sorry to kill the double threat possibility

Talking Poker 09-09-05 05:02 PM

Hey.... I just realized this means I won the brackets, doesn't it? Look at me go. No one knows TP players better than TP, I tells ya!

I guess it's time to dig up the brackets thread and the side bets to square everything up.... Well, it will be as soon as you two finish, so I can figure out all the payouts, etc.

At least I finally know what hats to order :)
