- There won't be a runner-up tournament this time around - I am sorry but due to limited time, I wasn't able to set anything up. :/

F you and SwC 😘
You guys are awesome 😀

- There will definitely be a 3rd series and I will start organizing shortly - some details will be discussed in our respective thread.

I can not wait for this. Surely I will have a boring weekend. May be I will find some other tournaments to spend the evening while you guys will run for the title. I am yet to make my place in a final tournament in any series. May be this 3rd series will be my first.

The 2nd Bitcointalk Championship Finale Game is live!

We will have a Freeroll with a 50,000 Chips Prize pool for the TOP 9 players of Series #2. Big thanks to SwC for hosting + sponsoring us and thanks to all players!

Qualified players don't need a password as they have been manually registered!

There will be just the one Final Table unlike the last time. Wink

Starting Stacks are 5k - shall I kindly ask them to make it 10k or are we cool with 5k?

No announcement on a tournament of losers, and I didn't notice it at the time when I checked earlier. So far just a 3rd series has been confirmed. Sorry to hear about the part time shifts.

I hope you got my sarcasm not the real job I was talking about 😛

So, finally us losers are real lose? LOL
Are you one of us or you were able to get a spot?

Looking forward to the next series.

I will play some poker today.

Yeah the Final Table is live and all who qualified were pre-registered! Regarding Starting Stack: Shall I ask them to make it 10k or do you wanna play with 5k?

I'm fine with it if everyone else is. You and they are busy and as I've said previously I'm not looking to come at them or you to make changes often. I'm pretty good with the "it is what it is" moto, deal with it and move on. Just something to make clear for the next series and hope there isn't another oversight.

Efi I feel that I lost my shift of the part time job I had in every week end. Any plan for anymore poker for us losers and a new series? Sorry last few days I was away and did not follow any update.

Thanks

Glad to hear they are going to continue to host our series. Good times.

I noticed today they have launched the final looks to be same time as the qualifiers on Sunday.

It does still have 5000 for starting stacks this time around. Looking forward to Sunday I'll get rested up after work and try to record the final. Heavily dependent on my families mood that day, understandably the wife seemed a little less than impressed when i told her the schedule.

I'm not sure about all the entries but it looks like we have the .05 BTC generously donated by SWC, and .0286 from the 200 chip fees for the prize pool.
This doesn't include the big BTC ticket worth .01 BTC and the SWC hat for the winner.

Can't wait.

Hey guys,

I still haven't received confirmation but I am confident I will hear back today - be prepared for the Grand Finale on Sunday!

That is a great news! Thanks again for your efforts, mate!

As for the Grand Finale, Sunday seems perfect to me, and I have no preferences regarding time.

I'm really proud to be qualified for the event(in the #1 Series I didn't make it). Can't wait for it to start!

Is there any news regarding runner up tournament? If there is nothing official/sponsored maybe we could just set one ourselves with 1mBTC buy in for the same time as Grand Finale? That way we could play some casual hands and at the same time keep one eye on the Grand Finale.

i'm not positive but looking through the last thread, ~3 hours. quite long for a single table tournament. Shocked

in fact, there will be bigger starting stacks this time.....

And last time I was out in first 5 minutes, I don't think anybody will be doing something like this time around

I am expecting a very tight game but with blinds increasing very fast after 2 hours on the table it shouldn't be much longer then 3 hours.

Sounds good Thanks for the info. The bigger stacks shouldn't be to big an issue as I assume the blind structure would be proportional.
The timing should work okay, I'd just hate to run late and have to cut out to go to work.

Ideally we could have discussed a date and time; the following week would have been free and clear. 5 hours earlier and i could play right after work; tired but free from time constraints if I make a run at it.

You can't always accommodate everyone so I will just count myself lucky that I am on nightshift and not dayshift.
Just have to cooler you guys with AA, bet every flop suck out hard and never lose a flip and I might have time for a nap before work. Wink

so hopefully sunday works? play from work again? Tongue

i'm pretty open re day of week if we need to switch things up.

Better than Saturday at least this way I only have the one shift left that evening. Working nightshift I'll be in the middle of a good sleep I'm hoping it starts at the same time as the qualifiers at least this way if I hear my alarm I can play the entire final. Just shit timing is all.

My schedule is so sporadic, with the shift work and random covid scheduling it's hard to plan much longterm. I wasn't to concerned as the championship didn't have a date set at the beginning.

So I wanted to wait until I had an idea whether or not I would qualify before bringing this up. Next weekend I am back at work. I can't remember when the last Championship played out but I'm curious what peoples thoughts are on time and date for the next Championship game.

I didn't really hear any opinions about this. I am working nights this coming weekend, no getting around it.

so hopefully sunday works? play from work again? Tongue

Sunday is cool, too - I have asked SwC and will let you guys know as soon as the game is live. You won't need a password since they will manually register the finalists. In addition, I asked them to remove Late Registration this time. Wink

only one table i hope? Tongue

Quote from: iv4n on June 01, 2020, 03:00:57 PM

Why not Sunday? I don't know about others, but this week I am free on Sunday and Monday, Saturday night will be a bit tricky for me. Of course I will find a way if all others are for Saturday. Anyway it would be good to make it official as soon as possible, I will have more time to ask some colleagues and to make some changes in case it's Saturday.

I would prefer Sunday too, thank you.
