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.

Talking Poker · #**127** 01-03-06, 01:55 PM

I'd like to point out one more time that THIS is not the point AT ALL. The point is that $10 is the minimum buy in for a Stars tourney!

If people want to do a $5 tourney, FINE. But we can't do it at Stars. So instead of coming up with this crazy major headache potentially disasterous player limiting idea about having a fake freeroll, why not do a little research and find a site that will host a $5 tourney for us?

I hate to restate the obvious over and over again, but I guess I have no choice.

(This post was not directed at you, Brian).

Talking Poker · #**128** 01-03-06, 02:04 PM

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.

BrianSwa · #**129** 01-03-06, 02:06 PM

alright,
well id be fine with the $5 also but would need a trade from someone seeing as all my money will be on stars. BUT in no way would I do a freeroll, then we get riftraft....see I knew there was riftraft somewhere!!!!

honestly transfering tp $5 from everyone on other forum is never gonna happen. Its like saying hey everyone here transfer this guy money that you dont know! come on who would do that I dont even trust people on here ive talked to for 1 year now.

Talking Poker · #**130** 01-03-06, 02:06 PM

But you wouldn't enjoy it more than TWO icecreams? LOL...

Talking Poker · #**131** 01-03-06, 02:13 PM

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.

rookette22 · #**132** 01-03-06, 02:18 PM

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!

Talking Poker · #**133** 01-03-06, 02:29 PM

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.

rookette22 · #**134** 01-03-06, 02:29 PM

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.

Talking Poker · #**135** 01-03-06, 02:29 PM

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

Edit: Please try to act like an adult.

Govman6767 · #**136** 01-03-06, 02:32 PM

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

BrianSwa · #**137** 01-03-06, 02:38 PM

this post is Brian approved you get yourself a + feedback!!! But as for seeing people yea I plan on seeing TP at main event next year. I will be the one yelling you suck TP!!

rookette22 · #**138** 01-03-06, 02:41 PM

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.

BrianSwa · #**139** 01-03-06, 02:43 PM

im not allowed to talk to rook (her rule) soooooo if someone could tell rook that im interested that would be great.

rookette22 · #**141** 01-03-06, 02:53 PM

You interested in tourney YES or NO; simple as that! If yes, type in your name under my tourney post. If no...thankyou for stopping by; and have a nice day! No more drama needed in this thread.

Talking Poker · #**142** 01-03-06, 02:57 PM

I think it's safe to say this thread has been ruined (big surprise) and has nothing to do with the tourney any more. I would strongly suggest you start a new one for your sign up list, instead of making people wade through 6 pages of shit to get to it here. Call it "TP vs PF Forum Tourney Signup List" or something informative like that. I would think you'd want to come up with a date and time for the tourney first, but that's your call. If you just want to get a general idea of how many people are interested in playing, go for it.

As for the "name calling," I'm not going to explain that one comment YET AGAIN, but it was hardly name calling. You can read my explanation in this thread, in the other thread you dragged the drama into, and most importantly in THE post where the comment was made.

But for the record, if someone wanted to tell me they thought I was acting crazy or even that they thought I "s***ed c***," it would be their right to say so. I would hope that they would have a mighty good reason to say such a thing and some evidence to back it up (especially the latter), but it would be their right to say it, just as it you're right to say that you are being treated unfairly for whatever reason you have this week. It's just funny that you are allowed to call all the "rich people" (most of whom are by no means rich) names, but if someone says you are acting irrationally, you get very offended.

Talking Poker · #**143** 01-03-06, 02:59 PM

Too late.

Like I said, start a new thread for the tourney, and maybe try to keep the drama out of it, if at all possible. Let's let this annoying thread die, shall we?

Zybomb · #**144** 01-03-06, 03:46 PM

you rich guys? who's rich first of all? I come from a family that makes 70,000 dollars a year combined and we live in new york where expenses are high as hell, and like I said I havent received a cent in 4.5 years from them. You'd rather play in two 5 dollar tournies than one 10 dollar one... ok, well why not five 1 dollar tournies instead of one 5 dollar one.... what makes 5 dollars the line? Like I said, if you don't have 10 dollars to play in a tournament, then you dont have 5 dollars... if you do, it needs to be spent on more important things than poker.

So you can turn 1.20 into 5 bucks, but it is impossible to turn it in to 10? Why not turn it into five, then start with 1.20 and turn it into five more and boom ten dollars! I broke the seal! Im not even going to address this further... and secondly, most people who play online poker, have a bankroll. If you (as in one, not you personally)don't, it's not to say you arent wanted here, but the tournaments arent geared towards you -- because obviously since they cost money to get into , the geared toward players with a bankroll.

If you wanted to play in the poker tournament for 10 dollars and it meant you'd be missing a meal, you shouldnt play. In addition you shouldnt play in a 5 dollar one. You also shouldnt be buying ice cream at dairy queen with your only spare 5 dollars... nor should you be eating at restaraunts at all -- since it's all about the value of a dollar, you should be buying food and preparing it at home,which saves you a ton of money...you shouldnt be buying a wristband for 4.75 -- and if it's between poker or a wristband, make a choice!
I seriously cant believe this is even being discussed

Rich spoiled kids dont know the value of a dollar? A dollar has no value anymore in todays society, a damn soda costs more these days. You can get a bag of chips, a candy bar or a pack of gum for under a buck, thats pretty much it. Ive been working since I was 15, including 40 hours a week while going to college -- so i dont wanna hear a word about spoiled.

10 dollars is one hour of work or less , and i mean real work, not poker, if you dont have a spare 10 bucks to play then you dont have a spare five bucks to play period

I love how you draw the obvious line from my statement into what i would do about a poor lady. If you needed .40 Id wonder what the hell for, but i would give it to you... but do you mean to tell me you dont have .40??? Or you just dont feel like depositing money? Theres a huge difference there. If you really didnt have .40 id give it to you, not ask for it back, and tell you that you shouldnt be playing poker for real money if u dont have a spare .40.

Brians analysis is 100% correct also. Only 3 type of people beg for money, addicts, underage (14) kids and free money players. I want neither of the 3 around here.

Oh the rich do get richer and the poor do get poorer by the way... but not for the reasons you're referring to.... it often has to do with rich peoples drive vs poor peoples laziness... not in every situation, but in general. Also the fact that you need to have money to make money is a huge part of it as well.

Edit: Sorry didnt realize this is dead already...

Talking Poker · #**145** 01-03-06, 04:30 PM

Silly, Zybomb. Your logic will accomplish nothing here!!!
