So again I ask you, why don't you think we should make this a 5 CENT tourney??? Wouldn't "most people" choose that? I mean, you could play 200 5 cent tourneys instead of just two $5 ones!!!

Certainly. So why is it that you can spend $5 on yourself but not $10? I guess I just don't understand how you draw this line, and why you are assuming so many other people must be in the same boat with you, when to date, ZERO have spoken up, agreeing to your freeroll plan... and that's zero people from THIS forum, let alone the other strangers that you are asking to trust someone here (me) with their money.

I understand the value of $1 more than anoyone. What I don't understand is how you can apparently choose to have one less Dairy Queen ice cream per month so you can play in a tournament, but not two.

I seriously can not believe that no matter how many times I and other people say it, you still think this is a good idea... and more importantly, you still think it's about the $5 and not the dozens of potential headaches and problems!!!

Well first thing, the pot wouldn't be as rewarding. I'd probably have to get close to 100 players involved in it which [(knowing me) I'd succeed in doing,] in order to make it a nice sized 1st place prize.

But mainly.....
Cus you 'big boys' wouldn't have accepted that one! If you're laughing at the $5 idea, I can just imagine what names you'd be calling me if I had suggested THAT idea!
Well some ppl told me in PM what they thought about it. Nikita voiced me her opinion in PM,too. She doesn't think she'll be in the $10 tourney, but Robb will. Guess you didn't figure on that did you,TP? But see, if it was a $5 one maybe we'd have the pleasure of both of them playing. I guess after all that's been said in here, people don't want to look bad in your eyes TP. Do you really think that after all this, people are going to SAY WHAT THEY FEEL????? I'm not like most, I tell it like it is. And yeah...it hurts like hell to get the feedback of what YOU all think of me; but least I'm honest and say what's on my mind. I'm not one to follow along with what everyone else is saying or doing, just to get popularity points, never have been and hopefully never will be.

I mean after you calling me crazy and shit like that, I'm not even sure I still want to be here. But hey w/e. Like I said, I'll stay till I can't take it anymore of the name calling or am banned. Maybe I'll start looking for another forum, soon.

If you read all the posts you'll see that most said they don't mind either way. I'm thinking they would prefer the $5 one, why wouldn't they? But that's not even the point anymore. I said you and your little gang won. I'm done. I'll talk to the other guy and if he still wants in then we'll do it your way.

Cus I'd ENJOY THE TOURNAMENT MORE....than the icecream!!!!

Did you read the post where I said I had been beat?????

Or do you just read what you want to read and skip over the important ones?

I'm replying to posts that are being made in reference to other posts I've made before the one that I said that you won. I'm giving you all my opinion if you don't like it well too effin bad.

I had already spoken to a few of my friends in Stars. Most of them were eager to play in the $5 tourney but thought the $10 one was too pricey. I told you already, my friends have a tourney every Friday night, and hardly anyone shows up, the last time was 13 players, the one before that was only 6 players.

That's what I based my opinion on. I was ready to bring them all here to play on our team, about 7 out of 12 for sure. But now I don't think I'll even bother mentioning it to them, not worth it. If you guys tell me off for my thoughts on this, you'd probably crucify them. Not worth taking the chance losing my friends over.

Oh.... my.... God............

I serisouly can't believe you still aren't get this this through your head. The problem is not the fucking $5! It has NOTHING to do with the buy in amount and EVERYTHING to do with the your plan to avoid the minimum tourney buy in on Stars. I am NOT going to retype all the reasons people are against your little plan again. I don't know why you aren't getting it, but please proceed to Page 1 of this thread and do some rereading.

This is insane.

And for the record, the minimum amount for a "Freeroll" is $100, so at 5 cents, you'd have to get 2000 people to transfer me 5 cents - not 100.

So you have friends that you'd tell about this site if we were having a $5 tourney, but you won't tell them about this site if we have a $10 tourney? What in the hell does that tourney have to do with anything? Why can't they come here if we had a $10,000 tourney? Or NO TOURNEY??? I read through your logic and all I can do is shake my head. I just don't get it.

Fuck it. I'm not even going to reply to the rest of your nonsense, rook. Trying to talk logically with you is like trying to explain something to a 4 year old. You're wearing blinders and think your way is the only way, and you refuse to listen to logic and reason. I'm done.

But one last time, for the record, the problem isn't the $5.

With that said, do whatever the hell you want. Have your tourney, have two, have none, tell your friends about this forum, leave this forum - I don't care. I'm tired of this bullshit.

But one last time, for anyone who hasn't gotten it yet: I will have nothing to do with this freeroll idea. I'm not going to set it up, I'm not going to collect the money, and I will be in no way held responsible when all hell breaks loose and people are demanding their money back.

GL.

Again you misunderstood everything I said! Read the post again ffs.

I said that the way you guys treat me in response to the $5 suggestion, you'd treat them worse cus most of them have that or less if any in their accounts. That's the reason I won't bother them into coming in here. Those are the ones that were NOT interested in the $10 buyin. READ WHAT I TYPED !!!!

EDIT: WOULDN'T WANT ANY RIFRAFFTERS UNDER YOUR TURF!

Try getting this through your head: No one gives a shit how much money you have or don't have in your account.

The way you are being "treated" has to do ENTIRELY with your attitude, your overreacting, your taking things personally, your trying to be a martyr, and the simple fact that I (I won't speak for everyone else) think your $5 fake freeroll idea is a very bad one.

It has nothing - I repeat, NOTHING - to do with the amount of money in your poker account, bank account, pocket, or couch.

If your friends are capable of being rational, logical human beings, and are willing to take feedback when they ask for it, even if it's not what they were hoping for, I'm sure they would be treated very well, just like everyone else here.

You're funny, Rook. In the beginning, you thought you were being treated unfairly because you were a n00b. Other n00bs eventually convinced you otherwise. Then for a long time, you thought you were discriminated against because you were a women. Some of the other women eventually convinced you otherwise. And now, you think it's because you're broke. Hopefully some broke people will step up and convince you that's not the case either (I see Brian is trying).

I wonder what will be next. I'd like to think that eventually you'll realize you're treated just like everyone else, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Sent message to Pokerflea.com administrator. He's going to talk to his staff about the $10 buyin tourney. He seems ok with the idea. I'll let you know what he decides as soon as he messages me.

WTF is your problem? Seriously. Why are you being like this?

Edit: Please try to act like an adult.

Your egos are way to big who cares if someone thinks your cheap
I bought a 25 dollar TV ofmy neighbor all I had to do was pick it up from his truck in the alley. Sure the picture and sound sucks and the cops are after me I GOT IT FOR 25 BUCKS WOO WOO.

I guess my point is.... well I don't have a point Buy neither do any of these posts. Some of you people are getting WAYYYY defensive like. "Don't call me cheap. Or don't call me stupid or don't call me a pedophile.....uhh"

Who cares if someone is calling you names GROW UP do you really care what a bunch of people you will never see think about you. Your supposed to be here as part of a "Think Tank" i guess Try to give out the best info you can and get some of the best info other people have to offer. Sites like this when used to the full potential can be awsome for ideas and ideological sharing. At the VERY least you could have fun with it. But NOOOOOOOO your using it to start a pissing contest because some people don't like your ideas.

GROW UP instead of trying to defend yourself to a bunch of people who don't care Start a new thread come up with something cool and innovative something ppl will talk about for a long time. Be the man...... not a bitch

As for the name calling, yeah...I don't much like it. Don't tell me that I need meds or you think I'm crazy! I don't call you a c**** s** do I? I would think that as leader of this forum you wouldn't give anyone the right to start calling each other names. Not a good thing if they see you doing it.
Edit: I saw your signature too...guess that was directed to me too, huh? Don't bother denying it.


$5 idea for a tourney was a BAD FUCKIN IDEA OK? We all in agreement with THAT? Ok let's move on then.

$10 buyin Tourney is in the works. Waiting for Pokerflea to reply. That's it, that's all.

If YOU ARE STILL INTERESTED TYPE YOUR NAME BELOW THIS POST.
