We will be holding a texas holdem poker tournament at our house on friday nite. We will decide on tournament method the nite of the event. Please post in this thread if you are going to come out. You don't necessarily have to post to join us but it would be helpful to know how many will be coming. Please bring chairs if you have them. We have some, but as the ones that came to the first one can attest to, we ran out. We have room for about 15 or so people. We will have the livingroom reconfigured to fit more in here as well.

Here are the basics:

--$20 buy in

--Registration open until 7:45pm

--Game play begins at 8pm sharp!!!!

--We will take hourly breaks which we will draw cards to see who sits at what table and the blinds will double.

--Play continues until one person has all the chips.

--The second place person will get at least their buy-in money back ($20) with the overall winner taking the rest.

--If time permits, we may have a second smaller tournament like we did at Andy's for a smaller buy-in (probably $5 again but we can discuss that).

--------------------

Why this friday FOCKER. We just played last weekend. Make it next weekend cause I will be out of town this weekend. Or make it sunday or somethin.

Same here, I am going to Duluth I think snowmobiling so I won't be able to make it. I could next weekend though. Have to take advantage of this snow before its gone.

CRAIG

I'll be there! And after looking at my calander the 13th is next Friday.

We have dinner reservations the 13th at 8pm so we are out.

Tyler, check the dates. It is next friday. I'm busy this weekend as well so that's why we decided on next friday. I have to go pick up a bunch stuff at my fathers house.

I can't wait!!

I think they should be less often because you will get more of a turnout. Not all of us are rich ;)

im retarded

I know the feeling. We're not rich either. I just got an itch to do it again.

We will be having many more so there will be plenty of opportunity for you guys to take our money. :D

Just so everyone knows, this tourney is still on. Regardsless if my car is running or not, we will be having the tournament here.

I'm going to talk to the management here at the townhomes and find out how big of a deposit they need for the party room and maybe sometime in the future we will hold it there. They have basically a full kitchen and livingroom for a party room. I'll go down and look at it someitme and find out how late we can be in there as well.

That'd be cool :) Renting a party room would be fun :banana:

Good idea. I can host the next on at my place in our party room cause it is massive and stuff as well.

I am down to come for tomorrow. Who is all going? Or how many people are going that is?

I'll come if I get get a ride from one of my friend's. I don't pick up my new Eclipse till Saturday morning since I totaled my other one.

I could probably get you!

I am definately in!

Who all is going to be there?

I am in Duluth right now, so I don't think I am going to make it, got to use that snow before it melts.

Good luck to whoever plays.

CRAIG

count me out! I have to take care of my dog. He is still a bit young. I would have asked to bring him along but I wouldn't want to put that on anyone's home. Sorry all. I will try to host the next one if I can find out what dates work best for everyone.

Yeah, I'll probably show up.

You could get me Ty?
