Punter's Lounge Poker Tournament

[BillyHills]

Ok guys, after my initial post about Private Poker Tables, there seems to be enough of us interested in having a go at this thing. Never done it before but i'm willing to try and set it all up unless someone else has the know how, experience, time etc... Downloaded the Software from http://www.pokertropolis.com/privatetable.asp and had a look at the tables, looks ok to me. Read the rules about setting up Tourney and it appears fairly straight forward. Can only see a couple of problems; (1) All players will obviously have to register with the site, (Use Punters Lounge usernames) which means downloading the software, some may not want 'another' poker set-up, so if there is an alternative then let us know. (ie; if Laddies do one and most of us are already members at that site then it would make sense to do it there, although this one seems ok, as i said earlier) (2)We will have to pay an entry fee, of which the site takes a cut for the pleasure of having us (usual rake%) Obviously this will mean putting cash into account so access to payment method will be needed. (Only 10cent minimum) If after these conditions are met then we have to decide a few things; (1) Date of Tournament Obviously we need to select a day and time that suits the majority, may be impossible to suit everyone. Something like Sunday at 7pm for example. (2)Type of Tournament I imagine this will be NO LIMIT Texas Hold-Em. (3)The amount of Starting Chips This will be fixed at 1500, we need to choose the starting Blinds. Eg; $10/$20 (The site deals in Dollars) (4)The Entry Fee This will determine the Prize Money, i think it will be split in the usual way but by request we can do what we like. A couple of ways of looking at this but for the first one we may want to keep it at $5 or something and see how we go. The extra for the Site would be 10% ie; 50cents. I thought we could have a go early in the New Year when everybody is back online after the Hols. From the posts already recieved the players interested so far were; BillyHills Jay Oskar StaffordRangersFan Topnotchbloke Jezza Dave George MFC MARK NorfolkEnchance There is no limit to the amount of players, the tables will be automatically provided to suit the entrants. Max 10 per table. Anyway, its all trial and error just now so if anyone 'really' interested in playing put their thoughts up and we can take it from there. My suggestion: Sunday 7pm in january No Limit Texas Hold-Em Blinds= $10/$20 Entry Fee= $5 I am fairly flexible, but Mondays/Fridays are a bit of a problem. Cheers BH
