If you try, be sure to remind him that 2 guys who were in his tourney last January are involved.

We don't want to scare him off now. :rolleyes::cheers:

Very obviously, eejit has been removed from the participants list. Unfortunately, that removes The Storm's potential $500 bounty too.

In other news, I wrote to Stars and asked them if they would be willing to donate some gear for our league. Their response:

Damn eejitgate ruined my bounty. Oh well, this is more satisfying anyway.

I'll think of some more bounties soon.

There was some talk in the other thread about trying to get some pros in on this. Just to let you all know I sent Barry G. a message on his website with all the info for the league in case he would like to stop by to play a few events. I also gave him the address of the forum in case he wants to join. So yea, if Barry randomly shows up on the forum or one of these events, thats why.


I'm hoping but doubting he will.

:D

That would be very cool - thanks for the effort, regardless of what happens.

I'm in, money sent.

Stars = Akverno2

He didn't post in this thread for some reason, but 7 posts in 3+ years forum member Brijac is in.

Silent but deadly.

$5 bounty for whoever LOSES to me first in a coinflip. Definition of coinflip is the 'standard' - 2 overs vs a pair all-in preflop. To qualify, I have to either be in the money or have 3x BB when the money goes in (no meaningless coinflips in otherwords). Bounty good for League play only (not warmup or TOC - see below for TOC if bounty still alive).

One catch - if i lose FOUR coinflips in a row - then I get the bounty back!

If the bounty is still alive when the league wraps up (no one loses to me and i dont get 4 in - which could happen since i dont think i am going to make a ton of these), then the $5 will carry to the T.O.C - and go to the first loser of a coinflip hand, regardless if i am involved or not.

Money sent

I like this, even though you are pretty much guaranteed to get your $5 back. :rolleyes:

Storm - put bounties on people who aren't in the league so people will harass them to join.

Says a guy who... isn't in the league???

yeah, well I can't join anyways, im practicing "bankroll mangement" lol

League entry
 

Hi all,

Just sent my league registration to TP on PS... My Pokerstars name is XjedimasterX and my Fulltilt name is brokestack

See you at the tables.

Jedi Master

This payment hasn't shown up yet... Maybe they are just slow today.

Jedi Master - your payment never came and others have since. Did you get a confirmation that it went through? If not, please resend. If so, we need to email Stars support.

I'm adding another bounty to the league:

For the first three people herschelw busts in any league event (not including the warm-up bounty tourney), I will buy you a $15 herschelw group lesson if you want it.

Simply post the HH here after he owns you. :thumbsup:

Anyone have any other bounties they'd like to offer? We are coming down to the wire here.

League entry
 

Hey TP,

I just looked at my history in PS and I sent 20.00 to INDIALANTIC for sure... the transaction number is 0113223918. What's the prob?

JM

Uhhh, Imdianatlantic is his CITY. his stars name is talkingpoker.....you should email stars and get it reversed before lucky Indianatlantic plays with the 20

Lolz

League entry
 

Doh!!!

I want it, but I don't, but I do, but I don't, arrrgh.

Ok... my stupid mistake is fixed.

TP you should have the money now lol I'm such a noob.

See my above post for my screen names

Oh dear. :rolleyes:

Got the new payment.

Edit: I can't believe someone actually has the screen name Indialantic. I wonder where they are from.

$20 League entry sent for Jakebarf

Stars name is Jakebarf, he will have to tell you his tilt name

One more league member would make a cool $200 for the overall winner (me)... then $150, $100, and $50 for the rest of you chumps to fight over. :thumbsup:

Currently:

Depending how many more people we get, we may want to talk about paying 5 spots. For now though, I think this is good.

Hope I'm doing this the right way by posting in this thread...

Disregarding the fact that these league events will be taking place at fairly ungodly hours for me, and despote the fact that I'm probably head and shoulders below the majority of you guys in skill level...

I signed up to this forum all that time ago to improve my game and learn from you guys... and what better way to do so than to play with y'all?

So be prepared for some stupid plays on my part, and I'll get prepared for some tough lessons :D

Sign me up... will edit post when shipped the money ($20 fee right and then just sign up to the $5 +0.50 tourny?)


Edit - $20 sent to TalkingPoker on stars (Trinket13)
Don't have a Fulltilt account, but probably will in time. Will post the name up when I have one.

I would like to play league if its not too late.
Cali

It starts tomorrow night, but people can sign up whenver they want.

Your points will start counting once you ship the $20.

Also, we have a bounty tourney tonight. To qualify for bounties (DOUBLE bounties if you are in the league), ship $5 for that too.

And don't forget to post your screen names in this thread, so we know who you are when we are playing.

Welcome too the forum and GL!

Ok but where do I ship the 20$ to? Im new and a lil lost here, but I am ready to play! ;)
Cali

ok I see it..20$ to TalkingPoker on Stars.... sending now..sent

My SN on Stars and FullTilt is CalifNaughti

Please read the in this thread. There is a lot more you should know, and everything is spelled out there.

Ok I read it, sounds pretty good. Can't wait to play!
Cali

I would like to join the league as long as the $20 is optional. My stars name is hurt50 and my ft name is jdiana86

You can play in as many events as you want, but in order to "join the league" (ie, be eligible for the prize money, TOC, bounties and so on), you need to pay the $20.

Play all you want, but your points won't count until you've paid your league fee.

im olydajew at both stars and FT

Event #1 is tonight!

Last night's bounty tourney ended up costing me $130 in bonus money for league members. :o

Anyone have any last minute prizes/donations/bounties/whatever that you would like to add for the league? Now is the time. It can be for anything you want - minimum $5, please.

Topaz3 will be joining many of the games on Stars. Still trying to talk her into joining the forum.

Table manners kids, it's Oceanwaves Mom.

Oh man. If she wins my bounty I'll make it $133.37 :D

She is not in the league though. Granted, the last time we had a forum tournament (not last night), I seem to recall she busted you. ;)

$20 sent. My screen name on both sites is PokerRef.

It's been over 20 minutes and I haven't received it yet.

PLEASE tell me you sent the money to TalkingPoker and not to Indialantic. :rolleyes:

Here we go again!:eek:

I like reruns

*grabs chair*

2 minutes until Event #1 begins! So far 20 peeps are registered. Nice turnout!

Remember - even if you aren't part of the league, you are welcome to play.

GL everyone!

Heres the e-mail PS cashier sent


Hello PokerRef,


We have transferred $20.00 from your account to 'TalkingPoker' as per your request.

Good luck to you both.


Regards,

PokerStars Cashier

I still haven't received the confirmation, but the money is in my account, so you're all set!

Welcome to the forum!

:thumbsup:

Good Game everyone, I had a lot of fun. Surprised by the turn-out since I was 30-45 minutes late and heads up started with me having 3-4k vs Blib's 22k (?) .

Wow - I forgot you showed up late! Just goes to show everyone that it's always worth preregistering. If you miss a few hands (or in this case, a lot of hands), its no big deal.

Glad I could give you that early double up to really get you rolling....

here is juice's victory statement before his agent edited it.

:D:D:D congrats juice.
