Would you be up for a Poker League for members of this forum?

[adibe]

I would be interested in joining a poker league but what software or site would we be using?

I'm trying to get us a sponsor.

As for the tournament itself, I thought about at at least 3 a week two times a day (for different time zones), and at least one of them should be a freeroll. Depending on the place you finish you would be awarded points for the Poker League, and in the end of the month prizes would be paid for the top players in the League.

It's a gread idea though. i'm also poker player and i love it if there's any poker league in bitcointalk. and yeah we need sponsor for get that.

To get site for host I think will be easy but the problem is active sponsor

You are right it would be easy to find a site to host this. I also think it will be easy enough to find an active sponsor because not all the games will need sponsoring. Only a couple will need sponsoring. I have not played poker for awhile but will be willing to join you guys in this poker league. OP you should contact luckyflop and ask if it interests him which i think it will as he was always a very good admin when i used to play. pm him a link to this thread.

yeah it was interesting just imagine bitcoin poker site with the smallest bet size bits, unfortunately there are no poker gambling site to bet like that

im very interested in playing poker in real life and in online casinos so of course i would be very curious to try the poker league i think it would be a very great idea to do it though it depends on how much money we would have to spend on it as different people can spend different amounts

The idea of having at least 3 weekly tournaments was exactly thinking about that. One could be a freeroll, and the others could also have different buy ins. Maybe not to big, since this would be the first tournament, and it would be nice to allow most people to join, so they can build up there poker bankroll. I thin the ones with buy in could be somewhere between 5 - 10 mBTC, what do you guys think?


EDIT: I also just remembered that at the end of the month we could have something like a "main event", that would be the tournament with the biggest buy in. Nothing to big of course, but something to make it more exciting.

yes i agree with that, at the end of the month all top players play at 1 table main event. and yes it has the reward or prizes for 1st,2nd,3rd. are you already got sponsor ?

When I thought about main event it would not be for just some players. It would just be a more serious tournament that would award more points for the league and would have a bigger buy in than the regular ones during the month. This would be the last tournament of the month before the end of the League. It could have some cool feature like a bounty for the top league player by the time of that tournament etc, but I will still have to think more about it.

As for the sponsor I think I'm pretty close. I will keep you informed!

[FrueGreads]

All of that seems nice, I don't play poker in a while but I sure like the game. I will keep a eye on this, maybe I will join it if it goes live.

[hua_hui]

make it has different level for different target range of players. i am not really good in poker but if there is a possible gameplay for me, i am interested to try it out too otherwise i rather bet on other stuffs.

Hello guys, I'm a poker and sports betting enthusiastic. I'm glad to see the sports betting thriving in this forum.
Every day we see new tipsters threads, and we even now have a competition for tipsters, in which I participated and that is now in the IV edition.

So the big question is:

What about poker?

Would you like to see a monthly Poker League in this forum?
If so what would you like it to have?

I think it would be great if we had some exclusive tournaments for us during the week, and at least one could be a freeroll, and we could get points from participating, based on the place we finish in the tournament, etc, and in the end of the month prizes would be paid for the top players in the league.

Let me know what you think about this. What would you like to see in a Poker League?

Its a great idea but what would work really good if a bitcoin site ran it for members of this forum in exchange for adding a small prize for the league leader board.  Maybe could do something with a signature campaign to boost prizes.

That is exactly what I have in mind, and what I'm trying to achieve. Did not thought about the sig campaign option.
That's probably not a bad ideia as well, although it would limit the number of participants I guess, since they would not be able to were their campaign sig.

Maybe you can send a message about your idea to betcoin.ag or betcoin.tm . I'm sure one of those two sites will happy to support your idea, because it will bring more traffic to their site. And for sure I'll be there when the poker league is ready to run

Yep I'm already in negotiations, so everything should be up and running very soon I hope. Stay tuned!
I'm pretty confidant we will have this Poker League!

Signature campaign would limit amount of people joining for sure.  Could have it as optional would bonus is what i mean i think.

[crairezx20]

Great idea and interesting i will keep on eye here if there someone start it.
And i think need some sponsor to start host it..

[buyinbtc]

of course i would be interested to join it but i dont know if i would be able to participate in them if it would be held on night time in my time zone, also it depends on what amounts of money i should put into it as im not willing to loose more money than i can afford to loose

Be sure to include and the buy-in in the leader-board formula. E.g. the freeroll should bring a lot less point to it.

Sounds good, tell us if we have this poker league. betcoin.tm seems good, because they have many promotion about their website. and this poker league will boost new player to come to their website.
