7 of us registered already for this weekends tourney.

8 now including me and we have a new name registered. Looks like we are getting atleast 12 again this round

Code:

Boolog

Wonder who is this guy 

would be nice to see owlcatz and another new guys on the tables this sunday

So it seems we havent know who is these two huh

Code:

twentiwan
straateflu5h

I recall that straateflu5h wrote " fellow gosu " or something similar to Iv4n so probably someone from btcgosu

I heard a rumour Icopress its using black magic for his luck, its that true?.

It seems to me that you were the one waving your wand and uses all the magic spells lol  . I didnt remember much but by the time I was knocked out, you had around 1 BB or something while straateflu5h had more but then you ended up getting #2 spot which was amazing !

If we could average 15 players each game that would be a $300 pool every game. Only 3 spots get paid on 15 entrants, but it motivates players to win so they can finish in the money. Personally, I don't see how we have never averaged 30+ in every series??? We have millions of accounts registered on the forum and we average <15. Puzzles me. Maybe everyone is only here for a cash grab and there are no real gamblers?

Generally speaking poker is not really a game that everyone can play. You need basic knowledge on that and not to mention that half if not all the field that these potential newcomers are playing will be against us that pretty much know how to play already. Also time factor would be the other one, I guess most people arent really interested to spend hours of playing I guess

Well atleast this time we got decent number of new faces to join us so its great !

The poker hype is over for years unfortunately.

And well, I don't know if there is a large number of active poker players here in the forum. Additionally, Betnomi is of course not known as a big poker platform (yet). Also the tournament password is protected. This all leads to the fact that there are hardly any interested players if you do not actively follow this thread.

It is of course a bit of a pity that we are so few players. Personally, I was expecting more than that as well. But whatever, maybe we'll still crack the 20 players in one of tournaments.

I always talk about this, and really anoys me, i cant believe how a lot of guys dont play any thing of tournaments we have here in the forum, no matter what fee they have, and also they clearly can pay that, because they are enrolled in the signatures campaign.

The only pool were we see a really good ammount of people its the one for EPL, 65 or something like that, but asides of that....

Hahaha man yes, i said it in one post before, im going to end like 4 or 5 but you know poker magic, and high blinds can teleport you. Pure luck in this case.

I don't keep up with any soccer pools or leagues. Is this a free pool? That might explain why so many more participate and further proves my cash grab statement. If it's a paid pool, then it would show that more people are more interested in soccer vs poker.

No, its not free pool available, but yes a lot of paid one, one for PL, LaLiga, Champions League, Serie A, Fantasy EPL, F1. But we are allways the same.

Now we have one really interesting league in developing who can be played for free. And you enter in third division.


Well coming back to poker 8 registered so far. I send a PM to one guy who i think maybe he can play.

[Hhampuz]

I was twentiwan at the last poker tourney, betnomis software was nice, reminded me of pokerstars.

Might join again tomorrow, depends on a few outside factors.

ohh, that's good to know. because if i quote you here again and look at the poker history of the first tournament, you were eliminated as the 2nd player and the one who busted you would now get the bonus

✂
Also, I suck at poker but I'll put a prize on my head each week to the tune of 0.015BTC which means that if you take me out in any of the weeks you are basically freerolling the rest of the tournament.

btw would be nice to see you at the tables again tomorrow

[Hhampuz]

I might make som changes to that knockout, don't want to be a sour loser or anything but when making that post it was under the impression some things would be different (like the buy-in). But don't worry, I'll take care of anyone who knocks me out .

Maybe that will be the running gag of this series. Who is Boolog? 

Might join again tomorrow, depends on a few outside factors.

It would be nice if you were there again. Fingers crossed it works.

Still only 8 of us registered currently. Question for next weekend. It's Easter weekend and many may have plans with their families, are we pausing for a week or still planning on running the tourney same day and time?

I would be for a break. It's quite possible that I won't have time on Easter weekend. I'm not sure yet, but so far it looks like it. What do the other participants think about this topic? 

[icopress]

We can easily pause (I would be grateful if someone else would speak).

I'm fine with it either way. We are doing dinner on Saturday here, so it's whatever everyone else wants to do. I do not know how many participants do things with their families and we mightwant to find out so we don't have 3 people in the tourney.

Hope you enjoy the dinner. Yes, it's very likely that a lot of people do things with their families. It doesn't look any different for me. Therefore I would be for a break. I might still be able to play, but I'm just not sure. Therefore I vote for a pause. It would be really sad if the third round consisted of only a few players.

Yes i support the idea, i was claiming this a long time ago when the tournament was in the organization.
Here we are gonna have a long weekend so maybe im gonna do some travel.

But well lets see wha tthe other guys thinks.

See you tomorrow, prepare your chips and hands.

i have also thought about this and now that i look at the last posts from you (and i personally would also be for a break on 09-04) i suggest that we should take a break on this date (easter sunday) and then it continues on 16-04 with the third tournament
@icopress can you forward this to betnomi so?

That is a good decision! So we all have time for family and friends at Easter. 


Come on people. Sign up for Game #2 today. So far 8 people have signed up and I hope we'll get even more in the next few hours. It starts in about 7 hours.
