Poker Tournament
I'm not sure if we've had a poker tournament for GD yet, but i think it might be quite fun. Instead of talking about maybe doing one we should just do it.
I propose a game for this Thursday (26-01) starting at 7 or 8pm (please voice your best time)
Client would be Ladbokes (as it seems to be the most popular with people here), if we get enough interest maybe an mtt (or stt if 10 or less), Texas-holdem no limit.
Buy in of $8+0.80, $10+1 or $15+1.5 (keeping it low at first - again voice please).
Anyone in? If there is interest i'll finalize a time, details and entrance etc.. Wednesday evening.

Re: Poker Tournament
Are there any other clients that allow private games (stt / mtt) that isnt ladbrokes? Also allowing connectivity at uni and having a low initial deposit?

Where is dace our poker king, also yes you can have private tables on the prima network(expekt, nordic, bet365 etc) all part of that network.

Re: Poker Tournament
I don't mind using any website, do you think there is a way of having a poker bot for irc? That pms you cards and gives each person time to bet.

Re: Poker Tournament
I use www.pokerroom.com - you can play online or download the client. It's pretty good and easy to use too.

well terrible. Anyway to try and understand why ladbrokes isnt working,
i thought id help ya with a few things. I dont really know much about
t'internet but what I do know is im on the University network, this
network is restricted as far as I cant download illegal music (ie
limewire etc) nor can I do anything illegal etc, but I can do pretty
much everything else, mirc works, msn works, other poker programs work,
except ladbrokes. Anyway im getting really annoyed playing at
partypoker, its a joke people call you on the flop when they have a K
and a 5 and you have trips, jesus.
