XXEddie 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I was thinking of trying to set up some sort of Heads Up tourney for our fourm members. I would like to hear some comments before deciding payouts/buyin. I was thinking something like best 2 outts 3 for each round and 3 outta 5 for semi-finals and finals. I know it would be hard for 32 or more people to agree on a time, So I figure myself or someone would draw names out of a hat to set up the matches, then the those two could agree on a time, then post who won. If we get something like 46 people some people will randomly get a 'bye' in the first round. I would prefer it to be on Pokerstars......since I have no money elsewhere. But if we do it somewhere else Ill just pass, or ask someone to trade money on a different site.Thoughts, Opinions, or comments? Link to post Share on other sites

GABMAD 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 if the buy in is 100 bucks or more I'll do it. I'd have to deposit first on FT. Link to post Share on other sites

It would be for pride. If you want to make money I think there would be easier ways then to play other fcpers. Link to post Share on other sites

If all the matches are played individually instead of in a real tournament-format (which would be necessary to play best x out of y I think) there wouldn't be a organized prize-pool for the overall winner(s) - someone from FCP would have to manage the buyins. And who would be trusted enough on this forum to do that?If the set up and the buy-in is reasonable (100$ wouldn't be reasonble for me btw...), I'm in. Link to post Share on other sites

yourboygsarida 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 fourthed....but buyin has to be fairly reasonable, like 5-10. clearly the goal behind this isnt to show off your money making abilities and it'll be better if everyone can afford it. Link to post Share on other sites

MyPlayIsRAB 0 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I'm interested. what about like a $30 buyin then all the individual matches would be for $5?we could just make a private HU tourney at a specific time.. we have no problem getting 15 guys for skipaments on no notice, i cant see why we couldnt get 32 guys at a predetermined time on a thursday night or something.. like 9pm est. 22 or 33$ buyin works for me as well.. and if you keep it at like 22$, first will still be around 200$ and itll be manageable for more peolpe Link to post Share on other sites
