  • wats the buy in how many people get paid , and will 1st get tickets no matter what to go to amsterdamn and for how long
  • How could PokerJAH miss a pot tournament :D
  • I am willing to bet the trip to AMSTERDAM is actually a trip to AMSTERDAM's bar.

    Any takers?

    From the website-

    Toker Poker Tournament 420pm registration – game starts 5pm.

  • :s: :d: :c: :h:

    How high are you? Oh, I mean - Hi, how are you?
  • First to say it:

    " Is this going to be a pot limit tournament? "

    :D:D:D
  • I'm guessing there won't be any limit to the size of the pot.

    the grand prize is actually a trip for two (2) to AMSTERDAM on a PLANE to EUROPE... not the amsterdam bar... duh .....

    the prize package is valued at $2000.00 - $3000.00

    the wong bong pipe may or not be an actual prize***

    add-on - a single add on will be allowed.... price: $25-$75 gets u 15%-33% more chips
    rebuy: none
    tentatively its a T2000 tournament, blinds starting at 25/50
    the game is Texas Hold Em NO LIMIT
    there will be awesome secondary and tertiary prizes and gift certificates
    minimum: 40 players
    maximum 100 players

    if the tournament reaches or exceeds 100 players
    the grand prize or 2nd place will be increased
    option1 : 1st place trip to amsterdam for two (2) 2nd place trip to Jamaica
    option2 : 1st place trip to amsterdam for two (2) fist-class air fare
    option3: 1st place trip to amsterdam fot two (2) plus gift certificates

    www.cannabisweek.ca
    this is a non-profit fundraiser


    ps - you can be high as u want to be
  • constructive criticism - your website did not have much in the way of details when you posted
    - firm details lend credibility, especially given your organization... :D

    good luck with the tourney
  • i agree with posting items lends credibility
    again this is our first large tournament
    there are many many unknowns including the number of players showing up

    how do u base the prize value vs. buy-in ?

    ur right - many of the organizers are firm about credibility issues like this. they
    should have firm details , esp given our organization, but how do u fill the missing gaps?
    put a 'subject to change without notice' on the info??

    thanks


    ps - that was POSITIVE criticism - ty
  • as for the prize info, you can list the prizes, based on number of participants. so you could say first prize is x, second is y, with a "* based on z participants" (go for the max here). no one will fault you if you have to scale back the prize if you only have 75% of the expected number of participants.

    p.s. make sure you tell the people they shouldn't be munching on the chips
  • One week to go.

    Anxiously awaiting to see it off the ground.
  • here's the link with the new 411

    If you posted it on a website and posted the link here then it is public knowledge. If you were privately emailing the registrants the address then I would agree with you.
  • You have the Red chips as 5, yet you aren't handing any out.

    Why not make them 10,000 and colour them up when you get bigger chip values later in the tourny?
  • everything is coming together
