Talking Poker WSOP Freeroll - 12/20/05 9:30 PM...

[Talking Poker]

Ultimatums don't really go over all that well with me, for future reference.

[Tony Cheval]

Deleted my last post, as it is no longer relevant, I strongly encourage 'Mr Ultimatum' to do the same.

ive been playin well lately, but in all these PS freerolls ive gotten sucked out on sooooo many times. no bad luck plzzzz

[Zybomb]

TP, obvious freeroll chasers should not be allowed in this freeroll, it's pointless, kills the entire idea of a forum freeroll and its a waste of your money and time.

Lets make it fun

[Talking Poker]

It's not a "forum freeroll." It's a semi-open freeroll (see first post)... much like the one rook requested last month that was for non-members only. I hated that idea, but this is a compromise. This one is for new members AND long standing ones. Why not have a big field and see who comes out on top? It will be fun. And it's not like there is tons of money up for grabs. It's 100 bucks.

Quite frankly, not having to deal with all the shit I did last time trying to protect the password only to have most of the field be crashers anyway - not to mention the hell I went through PMing everyone, etc, etc - no thanks. I'd rather just pony up the $100 and open it up. So that's what I'm planning to do.

Holy crap. I just realized that I don't remember the password! LOL - you GOTTA love that! Hopefully I can find it

[Tony Cheval]

Indeed, considering I intend to be there tomorrow night to beat all you biznatches.

[Robbr25]

So you will post or PM the password to us?
I want in on this one.
Need to get the bounty on TP, lol.

[Chogs]

hi
congrats to you

stars ID is Chogs
pm me password when you can

[Talking Poker]

Yes

In other words, it would probably be a good idea to be online here right before the tourney starts.

[surfinluke]

i am new to this forum and saw your freeroll. i like this forum alot and will hopefully become an active member in this community.

[Zybomb]

the key word here is new MEMBERS... look how many people in this thread have 1 post and will only have 1 post ever....those arent members, those are what i called obvious freeroll chasers

[rookette22]

Zy? Give them a chance. Bet you said the same thing about me and hey I'm still here aren't I?

[Zybomb]

I didnt say the same thing about you rook dont worry

and i HAVE given them a chance, look how many 1 post people have replied in that thread for days/weeks and have no had one other post since...nor will they.

I can read someone's response and right away know 98% whether or not they will be a contributor around the community

[FatRufus]

u guys all thought i was going to be a one poster. I'm not like those fish. I'm a donkey WOOT WOOT!!!

[JPSmiley]

Hey everyone, im really lookin forward to joining you guys tonight in this freeroll. Been looking around and it looks like this place is good for helpful tips and poker insight. Cyas tonight!

[JPSmiley]

Oh and my Pokerstars name is SurfinPanda.

[TyKing]

TP. I am not gonna be avialable for the tourney tonight. Just thought I would let you know. Gl to all of the participants and may the winner be 100$ dollars richer.

[Talking Poker]

I understand and appreciate your objections. But that's not how this one time tourny is going to work. Maybe you've forgotten the hell that was the last tourney. Do you really want 100s of idiots flooding the board with stupid posts, pretending to be legit members of the community? Not me.

This is an open freeroll, and that's that. One post in this thread, with a Stars screen name, is all it takes to get in.

I have my reasons. I'm thinking long term here. Just trust me on this, will ya?

If you don't want to play because it will be mostly strangers, I understand, but I hope you do. would like to see as many regulars as possible signed up.

[Tony Cheval]

...and this isn't?

[Talking Poker]

It's contained to this thread, isn't it? That's the key. And if we get 5-10 new good posters out of it, like we did last time, I'll be happy.
