$40 buy-in ... $40 re-buys for full starting stack .... $20 add-on for 1/2 stack

Thanks for the replies.I think i can handle 7 - 8 hrs.

A buddy is having a tourney with the following blinds and starting chips. As well as full re-buys for 2 hours and add ons after 2hrs.How long do you think it will take to finish? My estimate is at least 12 hrs.20 ppl, Start stack = 800 ; Blinds as follows below. 1st two levels are 1hr blinds, after that it goes to 30min.Also, it's a home game, so no designated dealer and there will be lost of ppl who won't know the betting. Any estimates on time would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to figure out if I want to spend the time it will take to play.Thx4/85/1010/2015/3025/5050/10075/150100/2

what's the story with this tourney?I know there were some maintenance issues or something today, but when I click on my ticket, it won't bring up the details.Is this tourney still happening today?

OK .. here's my question ...When do I have to go to the table to sit down?, and how do I get there?When I go to view the tourney it says I'm registered and there is a button to click that say's "PLAY NOW", but obviously I can't play yet bc it hasn't started yet.Will this open up a few minutes before the start time.Today is the only evening I can play, so I don't want to miss itThx for any help

k .. I think I'm already registered, at least it says I am, but how do I know where, I.e. what table I'm playing on??Do I just log into FCP Poker and wait for a pop-up or something, or do I have to find the tourney and sit myself down?

Ok, now that you've opened the thread how about a little infoI'm registered to play in the Round 1 Protege thingy, all signed up and whatnot. How do I know where to go to play this thing?Do I just go back to "my accout", where I found the ticket for the tourney?Some general help would be appreciated.I'm an online poker virgin, so please no anal.

Go into "my account" ... I got an email with the link, but you should be able to find it on the site, then just log in and any tickets will be shown at the bottom of that page

Well, I don't know,The tourney for the 6th is up right now, and that doesn't start for 1 Days 7 Hours 19 Minutes?Anway, maybe I'll just wait until Monday night and try thencheers,ray.

Can someone help me out and explain if I can sign up for say the Monday, Jan 9th tourney in advance.I'm looking at the sign up, in "My accout" and it seems like the only tourney I can sign up for right now is the first one on the 6th. If I want to play on the 9th, do I just wait until a few hours before the tourney and then sign up?Any help is appreciatedray.

This should definitely be looked into. Great Idea!

First of all, why such a big jump in blinds, 1000-2000 to 3000-6000 ... seems a bit crazy.Anyway, I think these blinds force you to push here. If not, you're going to be forced to put 1/4 of your chips in on the very next random hand you pick up, leaving you with 12500 - 3300 = 9200 and blinds at 3000-6000, so you're forced to push on the next hand anyway. I'm happy to go with J,10 here and let it play out as it may.

Daniel,I also have a question .....If a tree falls in the woods, but no one is around to hear it, does it still make a sound?

. Well ... perhaps Go back and read some of my posts. You, like most uneducated people will form an opinion based on one event. Just like how when you won that tourney w/ your friends for a $50 profit and suddenly realized you were a phenomenal poker player. . Wouldn't this be a nice change. Then I could weed out all this cr@p before every other innocent person had to be subject to it. Ahhhhhh ..... Yes I am. . If you had a difficult time coming up with an answer then you sir, may very well be one of the retards posting in general. Have you had your medication today? .MY GOODNESS! .... I

Uh Huh! ... I LIKE IT!

You, sir, are acting like a snob.Best...A good example of what I'm talking about, if nothing else.Are you suggesting that the mods start deleting posts where people have similar opinions in a thread?No, not really ...I was sort of referring to the DN vs DC thread ... 20 posts in a row state that "DN just sat down". For cases like that, couldn't the repeated comments be deleted?

. I guess this is the place for me then since my OP was so ridiculously moronic and stupid and idiotic and whatever other 4th grade level vocab words you used. Someone do something about these idiots flooding the general forum!Oh how I wish this weren't true.

You, sir, are acting like a snob.Best...A good example of what I'm talking about, if nothing else.

No genius, a) and B) are 2 courses of action. the post is about the moral dillema that this presents for top pros who dont need the kids money. but like I said, you missed the point from the beginning... so there is no point in arguing it..by the way.. .when you use words like moronic, and absolutely ridiculous and stupid, you sort of discredit yourself...... I knew I shouldn't have posted in general. Read this, then think about it before you reply .....If you play poker for a living ..... There is NO "moral dilema"!THAT IS THE POINT! ...That's what makes your hypothetical situation so st

Ditto....I'll be checking this out!

Ya ... I think I'll stick to strat for a while. I haven't been playing lately, and I usually stay away from strat when I'm not playing. Anyway, here's hoping things take an up swing soon.

I was waiting for the obligatory one dimensional response from the guy who misses the point. Please refrain from stating the obvious, and try sounding respectful and intelligent with your dissenting opinion. And yes, youre right this forum has become a "crapshoot for the retarded", you just proved it.Refrain from stating the obvious? That's impossible ... your moronic, hypothetical situation only contains obviously simple answers. In fact, I think you labelled them a) and B).

OK, I know the influx to the site caused by DN's protege has resulted in the number of mentally handicapped posters to go through the roof, but will it ever stop??And where are all the regulars?? I'm hoping it has something to do with the holiday season. I wouldn't call myself a regular poster, but I check out the site just about everyday and I used to enjoy a lot of what the regulars used to discuss.Even if the thread was completely ridiculous, coherent thoughts still managed to arise making it at least entertaining. Now it just seems like everything's gone to hell. 20 people will post the

Why do people write as if the outcome of a poker match is predetermined because one player is better than the other. If DN were to play, he's not guaranteed to win. He, or anybody else risks the same amount of money as their opponent. It's absolutely ridiculous and stupid to take into account someone's financial "well being" when deciding whether or not you're willing to play them. ESPECIALLY when you play poker for a living.PS. The general forum has become a fucking crapshoot for the retarded!

Really? C'mon.
