TPFHUC2 Bracket Pool...
 

Same deal as . If anyone is interested, it's 5 bucks to enter. You must transfer to money to "TalkingPoker" on before the first match begins, probably sometime this coming Friday.

Here is the bracket in XLS format:


Fill out the entire bracket and post it here or email it to me at poker <at> talkingpoker.com if you are having problems converting it to a jpg, etc.

Scoring is simple and the same as last time:
Round of 32: 1 point each
Round of 16: 2 points each
Round of 8: 4 points each
Round of 4: 8 points each
Championship: 10 points

Unless we have a lot of people participate (lets say 12+), we'll do winner take all. If there is a tie, the tying players will chop the prizepool.

Once again, you MUST post your bracket (or email it to me) and send me the $5 BEFORE the start of the first match.

If we have 5 or more entrants, I'm in.

I'm in again...

I'll be in. Just haven't filled out my bracket yet.

Ok, I'll post my picks first. I know you are all waiting for me, since my bracket picks were GOLD last time.

This time, I went with a few early "upsets" and I also took myself deeper than last time. Ah, screw it - I just changed it to have me going all the way! Only one guy did that last time (Zybomb), and his confidence turned into a win for him, so maybe it will work for me too.

There were definitely some TOUGH picks here... I think I may actually submit an additional bracket that I create by literally flipping coins.

Anyway, here are the winning picks...

How does it work..
 

How does this work? We challenge each other to HU on PS? What $$ level? We just work out times ourselves?

Mt Bracket..
 

Here is my Bracket. I take out TP personally because he dis-respected me in the first round (lol, would be fun to play you man!).

For the love of God, man. I know when you signed up, you said you didn't read this because it was "too long and boring," but just read it:


Don't ask me to cut and paste it here so you can not read it in this thread too.

P.S. Don't forget to send in your $5 for the bracket pool if you want it to count.

im down/...TP once again im web challenged and cant get the spreadsheet format on the post, wanna do it for me again? :rolleyes:

Retard
 

Lol. I am becoming a retard. der.

Sure... just email me your picks (or post them and I'll add the attachment).

I don't think it's that. I think you and junYUN are just lazy and don't like to read posts that have more than 3 or 4 lines in them :)

Hmm..
 

Maybe that is why I like 6-Max Tables!!

Come on, people - let's get these picks in. I know more than this will fill out brackets! It's 5 bucks and makes the whole tournament a lot more fun to follow...

TP please clean this up for me... thanks

Could the final two from the last HUC tourny be the same this time?!

Doubtfully imo.... I have a real tough first two rounds, and after 2tone first matchup with an unknown, he potentially faces a semi finalist, or a 1000 poster, then in the next round potentially 2 more dangerous players

Edit: Doesnt appear im gettin too much lvoe in the pools so far either -- maybe even a longer shot than I thought lol

Here are my picks TP... feel free to fix up. :)

My picks
 

Lou and TP are overdue to go deep, but I've got Badblood taking it down. If I'm right, Chip will have had the misfortune of drawing the eventual winner i the first round twice in a row.

NFLchad, I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I really doubt I'm going back to back. Interesting that we both have us facing each other in r2, and we each picked the other guy to win.

TP, money has been transferred.

Come on, everyone - let's try to get at least 10 participants, shall we?

And don't forget to send your $5 to 'TalkingPoker' at Poker Stars ASAP...

Im in. Yeah thats right TP I'm taking you down in the finals. Watch out.

Theres a bunch of upset picks in the first round too, and Im gonna have a helluva time making it to the finals.
The poker player who thinks and he can do it, and the one who thinks he cant are both right. Which one are you son, which one are you? *cue dramatic music*

Ive been watching too much football, lol. Oh and apparently after study C++ programming all day, I cant even figure out how to compress my pics so they will fit. Ill email them to you TP, and can you please post them here for me?

Mayhem's picks...

And add him to the paid list.

My Picks...Guess I'm following the crowd :rolleyes:

Sent

Damn at least a little love from the regulars in the brackets.........

TP, if I could transfer you the $5 on either Bodog, Titan, or PokerRewards, I would be in. Dont have any money on Stars (usually dont), and dont want to go thru the buzzkill of trying to do it last minute. No biggie.

Thanks and good luck all.

Sweet
 

At least I have love in the forum. Aeq -- Et Tu Brutus? Lol. It should be fun any way. I would love to play Gordo in the second round. It would be a match between two competitors that know each other very well.

I had you going pretty deep last time and you let me down :D

Received.

Go ahead and send it to me at Bodog. PM me if you need more info.

Why haven't you paid for your bracket yet?

Paid!
 

I paid up.

Yes, confirmed.

20 minutes til the official start of the tournament.

Ya, tell me about it. I had a 2:1 chip lead, flopped Broadway on a rainbow board, and lost to a back door boat!!!!!!!!! @#$%^&*(&%$@#$%^&*

Yellowcab then made a good run at it, losing in the semi's to the eventual winner.

Oh well, maybe next, er ah, this time.lol

I may not be able to WIN HU Matches, but I sure can pick 'em. Looks like I'm 4 for 4 in the bracket pool so far.

I wonder if Blibbity will keep score for us again. :)

Yeah, I will post it when a few more matches get played.

Heavy losses early
 

With only a few matches played, two of my semifinalist picks are out in the first round. Badblood, you've got to go all the way for me to have any shot at this.

Meanwhile, I'm 5 out of 5, baby...

If Zy wasn't a luckbox, things would be looking better for both of us. :)

Better to be lucky than good right? :confused: ;)

A little less than 1/2 way through round one....

Sick chart, BB. :)

Close Game
 

Pretty close so far.

Starting to spread out...

Possible points are for suckers. It's the ACTUAL that counts!

(I really crushed myself when I lost my match)
