That's cus it was a freeroll...this one isn't!

Edit: that's what happens with freerolls; this one will be set up almost like the league thread ...it should run a lot smoother than telling everyone it's a Freeroll cus it really isn't a Freeroll!!!

It will be advertised as a $5 BUY-IN tourney! Payable in advance to their forum adminstrator. We will have the list of players prior to tourney. I'll be looking over the list, if I see someone I know on there that I don't trust I might even disallow him/her from joining.

Another thing; if PS allows it maybe we can close the registration to tourney a few hours beforehand. Maybe we could even set a player limit.

I'm really fired up about this, and I really do think it will work. It won't work if none of you are interested in even giving it a shot, though.

In case I haven't mentioned this lately (I'm only approaching page 3 now), I still think this is a very bad idea.

Pros: Will allow people to play that can afford $5 but not $10.

Cons: Far too many to list... but I can easily think of a dozen or so, including this one that SINGLE-HANDEDLY offsets ALL the PROS.... LESS people will play in the tourney if it's set up all goofy like this than will if it's a simply $10 buy in where Poker Stars is trusted with the money. In fact, you can go ahead and put my name at the top of that list.

Hmmmmmmmm.... I wonder why you want to make this a $5 tourney anyway? Why not make it a $1 tourney or a 5 cent tourney? Just think how many more peoplw will be able to afford to play then?!?!?!?
