TPF League III Interest List and Suggestions...

Talking Poker · #1 08-17-06, 04:32 PM

Excellent suggestion. I have no problem adding PLHE to the list. LHE is already on there.

Do you really want PLO8, or limit O8?

omahilo · #2 08-17-06, 04:36 PM

Either Omaha8 game is fine with me, whatever you guys decide on. I missed limit HE being on the list, just assumed all the HE was NLHE.

BlibbityBlabbity · #3 08-17-06, 04:49 PM

either limit only or one of each, IMO

Sitting out.

No peer pressure, tp.

I'd like to get this scheduled, but honestly, right now I'm not sure we quite have enough interest.

Maybe we should wait until Stars confirms that we can play in these new events and plan this for an October start date...?

omahilo · #6 08-21-06, 11:40 AM

sometime during the winter would prolly be best since more people will be indoors.

Anybody else notice that our events being on Sunday might conflict with NFL games? Don't know how many people would have an issue with this, just thought I'd mention it. I'm in btw, as long as work cools down a bit before the league starts.

Talking Poker · #8 08-22-06, 12:50 PM

They conflict with ONE NFL game per week... It's not like the tourneys are during the middle of the day.

This sounds like fun and I'm interested in it. I think it would be great to have many different games and not just NLHE. Can anyone tell me how the standings and point system works?

GeoffM · #10 08-30-06, 11:33 AM

I'd likely play in a couple of tournies (O8, Stud H/L, HORSE) but that's about it. I'd be dead money in the hold'em events which is why I don't wish to donate to the league. And for O8, I noticed it is limit which is probably a good thing as it gives beginners to the game a fair crack at taking it down. The differences between limit and PL O8 are vast.

I like the format you have chosen though. Eventually, it would be sweet if you played the HORSE schedule more, ie 5 holdem, 5 Omaha, 5 Razz, 5 Stud, 5 O8.

In sum, I will join the next league if you guys enjoy this format and are comfortable adding some additional "non-standard" games like stud and O8.

I have tryed some other games and nothing is even close to holdem, so I think that TPL3 should be more holdem orientated.

Zybomb · #12 08-30-06, 11:05 PM

is slovakia that country that the kids wound up in in eurotrip where 1 US dollar made them kings?

GeoffM · #13 08-30-06, 11:12 PM

Ding ding ding, well done.

It was exaggerated though.

Slovaks and Czechs hate each other though, that is a fact, my sis-in-law is Czech.

murkosk · #14 08-31-06, 07:18 PM

Do Americans hate Canadian? Do Canadian hate Americans?

I don`t know maybe some do. I think that Czechs and Slovaks are still very friendly to each other. When we play hokey against each other, well that is a different story, but when they are playing against somebody else, we keep thumbs to Czechs.
In every country there are people that don`t like somebody.

murkosk · #15 08-31-06, 07:54 PM

What do you want me to ansver? Is that the only thing you know about Slovakia? That is sad! Are peolpe realy killing each other in the streets in New York?

Zybomb · #16 08-31-06, 09:55 PM

Glad to see someone picked that up.... and it was made WITH A QUOTE from the poster for a reason... lol. *sigh*

Oh yea... and...

Yes.... duh

Don't you watch movies?

kkirk1329 · #17 09-04-06, 01:44 PM

due to my recent bankroll boost i might be up for playing in this

Boobie Lover · #18 08-31-06, 07:49 PM

I nominate this post for overreaction of the year.

EDIT: Ah shucks, murkosk deleted it.

murkosk · #19 08-31-06, 07:56 PM

I did before I red this.

Sorry It was there only for a minute.

murkosk · #20 08-31-06, 07:59 PM

Its just too much of it everywhere. I saw Hostel and Eurotrip and I didn`t know thether to lough or cry. It is so silly.

Talking Poker · #21 09-05-06, 12:45 PM

Registration is now open for Thursday night's tourney:

I moved it back a couple of days in hopes of a better turnout.

In other news, Stars is still not offering Razz or HORSE Private tourneys, so I think we're going to have to schedule the league without them. I'd still like to get things kicked off in early October, so I guess it's time to come up with a schedule.

BlibbityBlabbity · #22 09-05-06, 04:52 PM

Proposed Schedule.... [UPDATED SCHEDULE BELOW]

Talking Poker · #23 09-05-06, 05:40 PM

I think the TOC should be NLHE, personally. HORSE would be cool, but honestly, I'm not getting my hopes up for that being an option for us... and it would be stupid for the TOC to be Stud or Omaha, etc.

My first request is that you shift the schedule to START on Sundays (10/1) and then second tourney of the week would be on T, W or Th.

If there is No Razz by Week 9, I say we make it LHE instead (we have plenty of NLHE). The rest looks great to me, but I haven't matched it up with a calendar or anything (have to avoid Thanksgiving, etc - well want a Tuesday tourney that week).

BlibbityBlabbity · #24 09-05-06, 06:26 PM

I will adjust a little later.

As far as HORSE and RAZZ @ Pokerstars, I have no specific knowledge of this but once they get them up and running in all forms, why would they NOT make them available for private tournies as well? I pushed them till the end to leave as much time as possible, but I would think they will be all set by the WCOOP, my guess. I might shoot support an email in the next day or two to try to get a general sense of their schedule.
