acesfull333 0 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Cool.. I can't wait for these to get started...I'll be out of town (and away from a computer) on the 11th, but I'll be ready to roll on the 18th...Let the good times roll!!! Link to post Share on other sites
scottyno 0 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 are fcp tourney breaks 10 minutes or 5? I know the poster above said 10, but he also said 10 for pokerstars, and I know stars is 5. IMO 10 minutes is too long for tourneys of relatively small size. Link to post Share on other sites

Scruff 0 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Any chance at mixing up the dates weekly, so it doesn't completely shut out anyone that can't make Wednesday at 9 p.m.? Maybe rotate the day each week or something? Link to post Share on other sites
Scruff 0 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I THINK the slow structure on FCP is something similar to this:15 min levels:10/2015/3025/5050/1005 min break75/150100/200150/300200/400 (PS would be 200/400 25 ante, FCP norm would be 400/800)5 min break250/500300/600400/800500/1000 (PS would be 800/1600 75 ante, FCP would be 2000/4000)5 min break600/1200800/16001000/20001200/24005 min breakAgain, this is probably not 100% accurate, but I think the big thing is 15 minute levels. I think that is a big difference.Very close FCP (assuming same as PR), doesn't have 250/500 . . . everything else looks right. Link to post Share on other sites
dna4ever 2 Posted January 9, 2006 Author Share Posted January 9, 2006 FYI The first tournament is now set up and accepting registrations.You will find it in the Regular Tournament Lobby. It's labeled "Weekly Negreanu Open"The blind structure is set to SLOW which is 15 minute intervals.No password required, but again you will have to access it from the FCP skin only, none of the other poker room skins can see this tourny.I am still working on the www.negreanuopen.com website but hope to have some information there by Wednesday.If you have any questions regarding the tournaments in the meantime here is the place to ask them for now.

mph552 0 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Is the game no-limit hold 'em every week, or is there some rotation? I love NLHE, but some variety might be cool as well. Link to post Share on other sites

dna4ever 2 Posted January 9, 2006 Author Share Posted January 9, 2006 What will the payout structure be?Standard tournament payout structure which is based upon the number of entrants.We will also be adding $100 in FCP 'Free money' every week on top of the regular payout. $50 for 1st, $30 for 2nd and $20 for 3rd. The free money will have to be raked at the standard 2:1 ratio in order to clear.And dont forget that every week a random person will also win a free fullcontactpoker.com hat or t-shirt Link to post Share on other sites

While this would be fine for around 100 players, I think it's a very steep payout if we have over 150 player.In the flat payouts, 81-120 players would pay 15 places, and 121-170 would pay out 20 places, which I think is much better than the standard payouts.

Paying out 10 places if 190 people pay is steep, and I wouldn't play then.If it was a flat payout, this problem would not occur.Also, why do you need to tell me to STFU?
