Rick Grimes Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Following on from the poker thread, I'm going to look into organising a Hold 'Em tournament at the casino at Fountainbridge. If this is something you'd be interested in please indicate your interest here so I can get a rough idea of numbers. No timescales at present, but in the not too distant future. Additionally, if you fancy running this 50/50 for charity then that's certainly do-able. The casino handle the split so its easily organised. Perhaps Macrae's Battalion? Mods - if you could sticky this that would be great. ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Merse Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I'll play and if need be help organise, I get on fairly well with the people that run the card room at the Circus casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In Absentia Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Am in, however I would only play freezeout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Doctor Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 It would depend on the night, but I'd be up for a game. I've never played live before, but if the company was good and there was a beer or two involved, I think I might enjoy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Era Macaroons Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Im up for it as well. prefer freeze out games to the lottery of re-buy suggest 10-20 quid as fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexton Hardcastle Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Maybe make it a second chance 10/20 quid? gives folk the option if they do go out to buy back in, depends on chip stacks as the game goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon Mayhem Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 A double chance f/o is the best way to establish a reasonable prize pool without creating a lottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaka_22 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Would be right up for that, as long as it was during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsmak Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Count me in for 2 poss 3 but not for a lottery 1 buy in only. The more buy ins the more the lottery it is! 1 buy in = less of a lottery. 2 + 3 = people going all in with anything as they know they can re-buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexton Hardcastle Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Im sure there will be a few sharks hanging about the table in the casinio. You would easily get 50 bodies i reckon fora 2nd chance 10/20 quid. Decent pot as well, and some for charity as you say. try and picka decent Euro 08 game on in the background.

Walter Payton Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Count me in for 2 poss 3 but not for a lottery 1 buy in only. :confused:That makes very little sense- unless you're meaning you can at least buy back in if you suffer a bad beat. Generally though the more buy-ins means a looser game and more of a lottery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsmak Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I think the lad simply missed a comma after the word lottery. The English language is an amazing thing. A comma makes two completely different sentences. OPTION A: Count me in for 2 poss 3 but not for a lottery 1 buy in only. OPTION B: Count me in for 2 poss 3 but not for a lottery, 1 buy in only.

I dont want to play in a lottery with unlimited buy ins, 1 buy in at most. Hope this makes more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
