avongirl Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY being able to only set 1 table is a pain:wall but other than that it went pretty well i thought Now we have a tested format I guess we can set them up a bit earlier next time. If we had 4 who know how to do it we can alternate so we can keep up and keep the flow going. I was pleased with how smoothly the change overs went (other than setting up the tables) and everyone bought in correctly and sat out at the right time pretty much. Well done all. :clap I think I preferred that to the regular kinky games. It only cost me about $5 and I lasted all night. :loon Actually, I think I must have forgotten to do the $2 add at one of the changes because my figures don't add up. :eyes:lol I can also see that I'm crap at omaha but better at hilo - I think we need razz in there. :tongue2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodger Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY Worked quite well. To retain the ''kinky'' handle I don't think we should have NLHE...that just ain't kinky is it? Including 5 card draw limit or Razz instead of the limit omaha hi/lo would allow for pot limit omaha hi/lo to come in. Then could end with no limit omaha instead of NLHE. My favourite bit was when I realised that Teaulc was getting peed off because some wouldn't fold in the stud! Problem here was the ante was too high and made folding very difficult from a pot-odds perspective. :eyes A good night. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubermonkey1 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY in fact i have an idea:loon drop it to min blinds(1c/2c) and antes (4c) and make it pot limit:ok at least that would allow for some play:nana:nana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyhornet Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY I agree with the others, the format worked well. Ironically, Stud was the only game I won at, in spite of the ante's:unsure. I too would get rid of Hold Em, and put in another variant (if that is possible). I'm quite good at Pairs, passable at Snap, and my Gin Rummy is to die for.:loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaulc Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY i did enjoy last night,it worked well but as Uber said no-one could lay down their hands and i forget how many times i was rivered:sad,then my KK/888 gets done by Rvrd`s AA/888 and had 2 other full houses beaten,but hey am i depressed? TOO FECKING RIGHT I AM ;);):lol:lol i look forward to the next one,well played all :clap:clap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY Thoroughly enjoyed it ( except for the last hand i played !! i didnt go off in a huff honest, the misses wanted to use the pc and threw me off it ) None of the expected chaos Thanks to everyone that organised it :clap:clap would like to be able to miss a round as before Think we should drop the NL holdem too as its not kinky enough, im up for some pot limit beat your neighbour tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubermonkey1 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY i enjoyed the holdem at the end ,maybe it had too much say in the outcome tho. maybe dropping it to plholdem would be better:unsure i think it run pretty well ,nearly everyone got to the holdem and i'd doubt many would go out pre pl omaha.the add ons actually added to the game really ,as the shorter stacks could sit back and wait a little:ok if we do it again ,we may as well move back to laddies if nobody objects. the stud antes work the same on either and at least you can set up 3 tables on laddies,will be much easier;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgey Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY Yeah get rid of the holdem as I went bust in that in 2 hands and that's supposed to be my game of choice! :$ :lol Thoroughly enjoyable night as usual. :clap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having made it through 3 kinky rounds, the whole outcome was decided on our standard game. The advantage with holding it on Prima is the choice of sites. I found I had about $70 in BetonBet, where I've not played since the league we had, whereas I would have needed to deposit into Laddies. I think we can get round the 1 table restriction with some pre planning of a few setting up tables, but the biggest problem was not being able to chat unless you were sat down - can you chat on Laddies, I can't remember?

She asked him to test out a table with her, think they played a 0.50/1.0. 7-card stud fixed limit. I think the outcome was it was still a 10c ante.

Izzy Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY Hey guys, That's correct; I have contacted MicroGaming to see if the antes can be changed in the Private Games so that they will be more balanced with the blinds. I assume that if I can get it done you guys will be playing on 32Red solely on the Fridays! I'm not doing all this work so you can play on Ladbrokes when it's fixed (will be fixed there as well when I manage to get the change through since Ladbrokes uses the same software) ;) Haha, ok hope you're njoying the 32Red Poker Olympics and I'll see you all on the tables soon!

Izzy Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY Thanks ubermonkey1 (very special name;))! That's good news:) Yes, about the NL Omaha and Stud... currently looking into that and think I will change them into PL. That's obviously the regular way to do it & dunno why they were set up as NL. But I will double think that over and I'll post the results here on the forum tomorrow; if anyone has an opinion about this plz post it, ideas always welcome!

Izzy Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Update Antes & Stud/Omaha Format Hey guys, Quick update... I now changed all the 7 Card Stud & Omaha tournaments into a PL format (rest remains as it was). As of tonight the new format is active! About the high Antes in Private Games, I had to log a Development Request with Microgaming (which I did) and since it will be a change far in the backend it will need time to be realized. There is a queue of developments and they are handled in order of importance. It is being worked on however it just takes some time so I would like to ask for your patience in this matter. Good luck in tonights games!!:poker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubermonkey1 Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Re: Kinky Friday Cash Variants - BPP Focus Game Friday 8th - 4x100m SWIMMING MEDLEY thanks izzy:ok i have a couple of other queries about the private table software. maybe you could look into them if possible:notworthy 1) no 5 card draw.....again seems odd as i sometimes play the $5 draw tourney(badly:tongue2).the software is there ,so why no draw on the pt's:unsure 2)any chance of razz ,stud hilo and horse ever being added:hope. everyone keeps asking me if we can play these, but no site has them on pt's :sad 3)any chance more than 1 table could be set up per player. our original home(who i will no longer mention;))you can set up 3 which is quite handy.although we can get round it with a bit of planning ,if it could be changed it would help:D cheers for the help so far :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
