August TPF Heads Up Championship Brackets...
 

Sadly, the details of this tournament are STILL not finalized. I can not express to you how disappointed I am in the poker sties I've been "working with" on this. Hopefully we'll have something set up soon, but our backup plan will be to play each match at - a small site that allows players to set up Play Money Heads Up matches.

I will post the official rules/regulations/requirements/prizes/etc. for this contest in the next couple of days, but since I've already generated the brackets, I figured I'd post them now. Let the smack talk begin!

It will be the responsibility of each Heads Up pair to contact each other (please use PMs) and set up a time to play within the given time frame (TBD, but Round 1 will likely be the entire week of August 1-August 7th).

If someone needs to back out of the competition for whatever reason (or of they are completely unreachable/unresponsive by, say, August 4th), we will be accepting alternates. So if you are not yet signed up and would like to play, please go post in this thread:


Ok, on to the moment we have all been waiting for. Here are the official brackets for the tournament (I will make a web page to track the results as we go, but for now, here they are - #1 plays #2, #3 plays #4, and so on):

In case anyone is interested, here's how I generated these: I took the list of participants and put them into Excel. Then I sorted them alphabitically. Then I went here, and generated a random sequence of 32 numbers:


I pasted the results next to the names, and then resorted to create the bracket. Tada!

Edit: Official Contest Thread:

soooo
 

we can play our matches on the 1st then right?

This is great!
 

I draw Shabi in the first round, and then the winner of Tone / Chip.

LOL.

Here's to starting off easy.

Yes.

No kidding, right? I had a feeling you guys would like how that worked out.

My first two rounds aren't a walk in the park either. First I have lightfungus (who has dominated the BBC this month), followed by Windbreaker/Zybomb.

BTW, I'm certainly not suggesting the above mentioned players are any better than some of the brand new people, but because they have made a lot more posts, they will likely get more pre-tourney "respect."

Meanwhile, did anyone notice the 3/4 match? I am so railing that one...

I think it should be made a rule that if these two do not post what day and time they are playing the match doesnt count and they have to repeat it. Estimated PPV buy rate 4.7

:D

most likely going to be on the first of the month because brian said he has a busy month coming up most likely in the morning because he said thats when hes availible

Why are you guys so interested in sweating the Brian/Kirk match? I hope it's the drama factor...

I'm interested in the TP match w/ Light, Chip's massacre of Tone (Sorry buddy, lol), and Shabi's quick exit. :) OH!!!!!!!!

LOL :D

Gonna be a fun month, or at least a couple of days. I was hoping to draw something easier to go deeper. Hope you arent allergic to the fungus TP! :eek:

Poker Face
 

Since I am a rookie, do you guys recommend that I wear my poker shades to the tourney? :D
I do not know nflchad but if we wait till the NFL season starts maybe I'll have better chance of taking him down!!!!
I look forward to it and will give it the ol' Kinger effort.
BTW, is a pair of pocket 2's worth going all in for pre-flop at a 10 player table if you are first to act? NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All IN- All the TIME

Sadly, I probably am. I just lost to... kirk :o

alright alright am i THAT bad?

Apparently not. Or maybe I'm THAT much worse!

coming from a guy that placed 6th in a wsop event.

got the 10.

Didn't think you'd be going back to school so quickly after the bar did ya?

I'm ya Huckleberry.

BTW,

What are we playing for again? There is a prize right?

And if we don't play Bugsy are we buying in?

I want to buy-in?

Free money is for fairies.

Sweet!

Keep it big (going off the screen)? or thumbnail?

It doesn't go off my screen, but it is pretty big. Can you thumbnail it and link it to the full sized version? I can host them if you like... just send me the full sized image and I'll set it up.

Now it is thumbnailed....I hosted it through Imageshack which lets you do either of these for free.

Sure
 

If we can work out a simple method for entry payments, I'm in. Mr. Chamberlin, I'm not all that familiar with your play, but I have you going very deep ...

Yeah, but it looks like they shrunk the full sized one. It's kinda grainy.

OK, I put it back to full size and I will send you a copy in case you want to give it a page off your main site instead....
