  • Good luck with your satellite, but it should not be described as "rake-free." I personally don't mind paying the $10 or 8.3% fee (more chips), but rake-free means that 100% of a player's cost to play the tournament goes to the prize pool.

    Hopefully, January 4 won't conflict with AcidJoe's rake-free satellite. I believe he hosted one of the last WPT RFS back in 2008, which consisted of 18 forumers! :o

    Somehow I doubt that 2 games 80 kms apart are going to interfere with each other, but it was very good of you to post another game in my thread.

    I guess it's important for some people to rain on other people's parades, even though they never have a parade themselves.

    Sad.
  • Sigh. No, I was thinking of going to your satellite on January 4, but I noticed that I had already written AcidJoe's satellite on my calendar. Why are there so many silly posts assuming the worst? :(

    No assumptions made, it was all in your post.

    No, I was thinking of supporting your satellite and mentioning it to the many players I know, but your replies make it much harder to bring everybody's players together (Milo's idea below) that is necessary to have home game satellites.

    So, like a monthly rotating festival of poker? Week one is Georgetown, week two is Milton, week three is Brampton . . . something like that?
    And, not just for satellites either.
    Anyway, I'll wish you good luck again on your satellite, and at WPT Fallsview.

    BF doesn't like rake, even $10. which pays for food and drink, AND saves him $20-30. in gas..;)
  • If this guy doesn't drive a hybrid then is this real life?
  • No, I was interested in ALL the WPT Fallsview satellites, including Joe's, Glenn's, OPT, YRPL, Scarborough Sharks, THE POKER PLACE, Toronto Aces Poker Club, etc.

    Wetts1012: So which WPT satellites do u wanna play?
    BlondeFish: Every one.
    Wetts1012: What do you mean "every one"?
    BlondeFish: The Professional -- Everyone!
    Anyway, the "'Jamie Gold type of run" continues for me even in the Fallsview raked turbos that I won't have time for non-RFS. After having dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House across from Fallsview, I was so sleepy after the multi-course meal and alcohol, but still won another WPT satellite for $1K.

  • Can you please keep your off-topic self-praise and name dropping out of my thread?

    Thanks.
  • No, I replied specifically to Wetts1012's question.

    Actually, you didn't. Question was if you live in Oakvile. Your post was in no way an answer to that question.

    So, one more time, please keep your nonsense out of my thread.
  • Yes, I answered Wetts1012. We also chatted after.

  • Now that we have that sorted out, let's just try and respect the OP's wishes and keep this thread focused on either:

    • Signing up for the tournament noted in the first post.
    • Discussing the tournament noted in the first post.

    Tx Bill.
  • I'm there. Any chance of 1 rebuy/add-on. Just want to build interest with the ballers. I'm married my balls are gone.
  • When quoting "a Jamie Gold like run" please be careful. You will have to refer to winning the main or "being sued, dropped by Bodog, losing everying on Highstakes Poker and then sitting in a card room charging for poker lessons like run". Keep kicking butt Blondfish!

    Nope. My balls have been gone so long I wouldn't even know how to play with them anymore.

    Trying to keep the cost affordable for the average player that doesn't have over $4k in FPC Satellite winnings already.

    :D

    If we get stuck at 8 or 9 players, I may consider a re-entry option to get the equivalent of 10 buy-ins, just so we can run it, but it will be a last resort.

    Definitely no add-on tho. Starting stax will be plenty deep.
  • Currently we have only 6 players.

    I will give it until tonight to see if we get 10. If not, then I will cancel.
  • Sorry folks, game cancelled due to lack of interest. My apologies and thanks to those who registered.
  • Appreciate you trying to organize this, I would have been in for sure but had other plans already.
  • No worries, it happens. It's always tought to get enough ppl available on the same night.
