Read the original post. Date and time to be determined - and it's taking place on PokerStars.

I don't know about TP, but I'm not in favor of this idea. When you play heads up, and you can watch both players (especially knowing what they have) it says a lot about their game - what they do in certain situations, hands they tend to bluff w/, how they play monsters, etc.
I'd rather just leave it open to spectators.

I can go either way with this. We have to at least post the HH from the FINAL hand (or any critical hand throughout the match where we both push in)...
Have you determined yet how we are going to play on Poker Stars? Do they have heads up (or private) NL play money tables? I don't play there very much, so I really don't know. And I have yet to play a single "Play Money" hand in my life, so this will be a first for me  Anyone know about this? |

You guys could play a HU s/g, I don't believe they have HU playmoney tables (could be wrong).
Or, you could just go to a NL penny table, both start with like, say, 3 bucks and the winner wins. Only downside to this the rake will eat up the stacks if it's long. But it is only pennies... Or... you could each contact PS and ask them to create a special match for you. I have heard them do this for players who wanted to play a 25k HU match, why not for you guys? *grin* Cheers, Gutzz |

We have a decision to make.
I checked out Pokerstars. They do not have 1-on-1 play money tables, but they do have 1-on-1 penny NL tables. Of course, if we did play on the real money (penny tables) there would be a rake. (Although small.) I also looked into the 1-on-1 SnG tournaments on Stars. The cheapest limit is $5+.25. To me, this is a better option than the penny NL tables. I did not contact PStars support to create a private table. This is an option, but I doubt they would make a $5+.25 private table... maybe they would. If you wanna go the "private route" let me know. I looked at what PartyPoker can do for us, and it's not much. I can create a private table, very easily I might add, but they only offer limit hold em. Party doesn't have any kind of 1-on-1 action that I can find: play money or real money. So, I'll propose this, let me know if you like the idea. If you don't, reply here, send me a PM, or contact me on AIM: We log onto Stars and sit at a $5+$.25 1-on-1 SnG. The administrative fee of $.25 each is definitely reasonable, and it would be easy for the railbirds to watch the action. We would each start w/ 1500 chips, and the blinds increase every 10 minutes. Although this would be a tournament format where the blinds would increase, it would encourage action. (Not that I think that's a problem in this case! Re-raise!) So, let me know what you want to do. If you have another proposal, let's hear it, but I think this might work pretty easily. Sidenote: given Murphy's law, and judging from past experience that "shit happens" the SnG idea is good because if something comes up for either one of us, then it can easily be rescheduled. Who knows when internet connections go bad, something comes up, etc. Date / Time: Because of my crazy and hectic schedule, the best time for me would be this upcoming Thursday night. I don't know how good that is for you, so you'll have to let me know. I'm kind of addictied to the Apprentice, so I was thinking we shoot for a start time of say, 10:15 est time. Again, that's Thursday 12/9 @ 10:15pm ET. Pokerstars: $5+.25 SnG, 1500 chips each. Let me know if this is amicable to your schedule.
