ColU_FC Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Re: Mansion Poker Dome - HUGE VALUE Well done Colufc on 3rd in the $500 added :clap :clap :clap Thanks Red. Once again, please accept my apologies for missing your chat to me but I was running 3 tables at once and didn't have time to look at the chat boxes (in fact, I didn't really know whether I was on my a**e or my elbow). ;) Hedonist - well done m8, sorry I didn't stay to watch the HU but I was totally knackered and went straight to bed. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This means the final table does seem to take an inordinately long time. But, like you, I'll be back for more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedonist Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Re: Mansion Poker Dome - HUGE VALUE I agree about the small blinds, the game lasted 3 hours 45 minutes and there were only 118 starters. It took half an hour on the bubble to go from 19 players to 18. One thing you may have missed ColU, when you left I typed in the chat box, c u m8 but they took it as a swear word and altered it. :lol Love the sit, will be playing there again :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDaveG Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Re: Mansion Poker Dome - HUGE VALUE I felt this deserved a thread of its own. 1c qualifiers running at differeing times daily (by the looks of it). First place wins a $7,000 package to Vegas for a TV tournament (looks very similar format to UK Open from last year ;) ). Last night had just 97 runners!!!!!!! 216 places up for grabs overall - I see no reason why we cant get around 50 PL'rs in each event (a 35% chance on last nights numbers!!) and 20 or 30 of us winning a Vegas package!!!!!!!! GET IN THERE PL!!!!!!!! Next freeroll is at 9pm tonight - download HERE to support PL. Not sure if it's a fault at my end GAF but can't get this link to work. :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valiant23 Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Re: Mansion Poker Dome - HUGE VALUE Have a look in the daily diary. There is the link there too, if that doesn't work it could be your end, because its fine for me.:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Re: Mansion Poker Dome - HUGE VALUE Yeah - works fine for me too. Try copying and pasting rather than clicking? (Or click on the mansion ad at the top if you see it - it rotates, so if you don't see it at the moment, it might be there when you refresh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpe1ne Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Re: Mansion Poker Dome - HUGE VALUE Poker Dome Is Go This Weekend Finally, after much legal wrangling and questions about whether the project would ever get off the ground, FSN’s MansionPoker.net Poker Dome Challenge will finally air this weekend. In what is surely one the most audacious (not to mention slightly ridiculous) ideas for televised poker, players will sit enclosed in a soundproof glass dome, into which a live audience in downtown Las Vegas will be able to see the cards as they’re dealt. Players will not be able to see the audience, thanks to the fact that the dome itself is a big one way mirror. Having cobbled together a long line of commentators and analysts, including pro Mike Gracz, FSN will show six players each week battling to make it through to the semi finals, followed by the grand final. The top prize is $1 million. The show goes out this Sunday (May 28th) on the Fox Sports Network. It’s worth watching just to see how exactly the whole thing will work in practice.
