Hey there,
I have created this thread to organize our first
Bitcointalk Poker Night!
It looks like there are many poker fans around here and what would be cooler than a fun private poker game with your fellow bitcointalk buddies.
The tournament will take place at Sportsbet´s poker room. Of course - and this is the hardest part - we have to define some basic conditions.
1. Time/Date We all are located in different parts of the world and I know it will be hard to find the perfect timing for everyone. For that reason I suggest we play on a
weekend, some lazy
Sunday would be good, no?
2. Buy-inThe buy-in should not be too high so everybody can join - how about something in between
$10-$20? Please share your thoughts and make suggestions.
3. Tournament Rules/StructureI suggest we start out with some pretty standard
No Limit Holdem Action. We can of course also choose other games but maybe it is a good idea to start out with NLHE.
No Rebuy/Add-Ons with a
starting chip stack of 5000 and a
blind increase every 10 minutes?
Payout for the top 20%? Including breaks?
What you think? Let me know.
Please just remember everybody it makes sense we keep it as simple as possible. Did I forget anything? More ideas? Please shoot!
Really looking forward to your replies and I cannot wait to meet everybody at the table and see who will be crowned the first
bitcointalk poker champion!
Also share this in other threads and/or with other forum members you know would like to play some poker! The more we are, the better of course.
P.S. I have several other things in mind but I will not post until fixed.
Update:- Date to be announced (
Sunday next week would be cool?) / Tournament will start at 2 PM GMT
- Will post instructions on how to join the tournament shortly.
