Just seeing what interest there is for another Betnomi Poker Series

[yahoo62278]

As the title states, I am looking to find out how many of you would be interested in participating in a poker series hosted on Betnomi.com? SERIES from the past so that everyone can take a look.

I'd like to know who all might be interested, How much we should make the weekly buyin, and what time we should play each game UTC time? Previously we were playing around 6pm UTC which was good for some, but not others. We would need to agree on a time that might suit everyone as best we can, or we could have each week start at a different time and make it fair across the board for all countries so we all have a shitty start time here and there.

Betnomi would sponsor a prize pool like they have in the past, and each tourney would earn you points towards the final if you place in the top 10. Anyone interested would need to create a new account. Old logins do not work for whatever reasons. I would like interested parties to use my affiliate link, but it is not mandatory. Post here and share your thoughts, I would love to see 20+ in this series.

The old rules and time work for me.

Hey guys,

Sundays at 6pm could work for me too!
Thanks for your effort

How about 2 per week? Wednesdays and Sundays, I'm in if so.

Suggestions are always welcome, of course we have to go with majority rules on issues like this. Maybe we could have 2 different series? a weekday 1 and a weekend 1? Whats everyone think?

That could work, but my thinking was.. Run the 2 per week for participants to collect points, just have a small buyin of like $20 per (or even less) which goes towards the final prizepool. Have betnomi only juice the finals, too. Gives some more variance and opportunity but yeah. Let's see what others say too

[Betwrong]

I suggest everyone to write their preferences regading time, tourneys per week and buy-ins; and then, maybe, it will be easier to discuss the final schedule. Here's mine:

1. Starting time:

Friday, Saturday, Sunday - From 5 PM UTC to 8 PM UTC

2. Buy-ins:

If one game per week: $15 - $20
If 2 games per week: $8 - $12
  
 But those are just my preferences. I've been waiting for this for so long that I feel like I'm going to agree to any scenario that's good for the majority.

Same here!

I don't have a problem with buy-ins, it will be as the majority says... but when it comes to timing there's no perfect one for me! With two kids everything is different, I don't even know what will happen tonight! I will try to play and adapt to any timing, but I will probably miss a game or two when things are "critical"! So maybe two games per week sound interesting maybe, I guess I can catch some game every week if not both!

[gagux123]

wow... interesting topic!

Well, I also believe it could be more valid twice a week. Regarding the time, I don't have much preference (of course this is my opinion)

We need to try to create dates and times that are great for everyone, or most!!

Looks like I'm in it again if it's the weekend, the time will always be the problem for us Asian people but if it will be on the weekends I might gonna make it? Not familiar with betnomi guys but I'll take a look on the accepted currencies.

I do like that point system from the past, I get the chance to experience it and no complain on that. I'm into both weekends and $8 buy-in, nvm the time I'll be the one to adjust. I think we can get that 20+ attendance.

[CCwatcher420]

I'm in as always, but definitely could not do midweek.

Was thinking we could have two tiers and two games at once:

Low roller $10 and below
high roller $20 and up

Obviously there will be a cap, but I'm open to anything. Sunday UTC does seem to work very well due to Soccer being on at the same time.

What are you all doing during the weeks that you can't put aside an hour or two towards this?

Totally down for the next series ! I miss having poker with the community

How about 2 per week? Wednesdays and Sundays, I'm in if so.

Lets go ! Im good with twice a week as well

I think we can get that 20+ attendance.

I dont think we can, probably max of 15 if there is alot of interest on this series


Should we stick with $15 for the buy in like the previous series though? even if we decided to go with twice a week, its still not an obligation for everyone to join all the games so some people could always stick with weekend games if they prefer to do so.

[1r0n1c]

2 tournaments per week I can definitely not handle! Please just stay with 1 tournament per week on each Sunday.
Similar rules as last time

Some users may have jobs IRL and cannot do the weekday game if we had 1. Whatever we decide to do as far as the series goes, its not gonna be the perfect scenario for all. I just hope we can get a bigger number interested cause the last series was 10-12 people max playing which was disappointing.

I have played the cash games quite a bit on Betnomi and the players suck. The regulars from our series I think could make a living on the poker from Betnomis site. Just my opinion, but we have some really good players in the series that could do well.

Most people that is seemingly showing interest now took part in that and want it to be the same which is why I'm a bit skeptical. I think there is potential to increase the interest in this but things may need to be drastically different.

Do you have any timeframe as of when to launch/start this or just asap?

[STT]

Im interested though I dont know for sure I will regularly attend or not but certainly if I have the time I cant see why not as I play Poker for fun anyway, send me or post the affiliate link to sign up with please.   Was it Betnomi I played previously and came 2nd or 3rd I think it was, end of series free roll.   I will have to practice a bit and get back upto speed.  I do imagine there is a vast number of casuals who should be practicing and then are more likely to step up and partake properly, some people have a talent and dont know it yet; its not too big a game to (re)learn quite quickly.

No timeframe yet, was considering starting within 2 weeks. Just gaging interest currently.

I can send you a link here in a few mins. Hopefully you can commit to the whole series.

So... I believe this could be a small problem, but not a very serious one.

Do you believe that it is necessary for us to create some voting regarding the days of the week, time and quantity?

Or can this be defined in the future!!?

I want everyone to post their thoughts so we can try to get as many in as we can. Everyone may not be able to play every week but a person can miss a game and still be ok.

There will be for sure a game on the weekend, that seems to be when the most people are off. I would like to see a game throughout the week as well, but that's gonna depend on the interest shown.

Just an FYI, I was given the ok to make this super large if I wanted. Just something to think about, but this could get as large as 5k.
