Ness said:Hello everyone, Ness here. I'm planning a supervised Texas Hold'em poker tournament to be held some time in the next month. Much of the detail behind it is still being worked out and tested, but I am certain I will be able to pull it off. My question to you is this:
Would you be interested in a scheduled, staff controlled Poker Tournament?
This would require an entry fee and a set amount of seats available for the first tournament. My current thoughts for an entry fee is 50k, with 30 seats available. The winner gets 1 mil, the runner up, 400k, 3rd place 100k.
So what do you all think, shall I prepare the tournament?
eww no. I have a suggestion.. get everyone who is willing to sign up e-mail their names in and then at first try and get a large number of people, 80-100 maybe. You can have an all day long elimination tourney and eventually there will be a final table. At the final table you could have let's say 8 players all 8 players get a cash prize of some kind for making it there but 1st place gets the grand prize and named the champion (no+20 AR lol)Br02ad said:I say open as many seats as possible with a buy in of like 50k since you can purchase gold on this shard. Make the first prize 70percent of the total prize pool with a l337 gold bracelet or ethereal. Something other that some lame colored weapon or piece of clothing. Maybe a bracelet named 2006 Hybrid Poker Champion with like +20 AR.

Yeah I'm all for a braclet the thing that got me off was the +20 AR lol. Yeah, as long as there is no "1337 poker player" weapons i'd be fine with the prizes. But i think there should just maybe be a memorial or something where a replica of the winner stays, and every time there is a new champion it changes, just an idea lol.Br02ad said:I'm just saying something a little more than a colored weapon or Doublet with some custom saying like everyone else has...The bracelet saying 2006 Hybrid Poker Champ would suffice. Just like the World Series of Poker bracelet. Just something worth the time of playing all day long and is worth our while. I've seen some pretty outlandish items givin out as prizes for these PVP tourneys which take like an hour and I know a poker tourney would take alot longer than that willing everyone is playing their best and not being stupid
*grins* No.Bloodstone said:This sounds awesome, do you have a date or time set yet? Or any Idea who will be selected to join, or how we can get on some kind of list? You dont have to give me a detailed response if your busy figuring stuff out, or if the things Im askin have been asked of you 2 billion times today already, as obviously this is an event that caught alot of attention Im sure. A simple "No" to my entire post will keep me off yer back till I see another post about this.
