Yeah, PokerRoom didn’t allow for real “tournament” style play, you had a set limit game you had to move from room to room to get increasing blinds. PITA. PT allows a true tournament format, but .10 is as low as they go..and .50 to the house. Nobody will get rich, just bragging rights (if that slacker Logarithmic Nanook ever posts some updated scores).
So have some fun on Thursday!
Welcome back Omni. Pokertropolis is much better for our needs. It actually runs a blinds schedule. There is a small real-money fee per game (sixty cents, and you have to initially deposit $20 into your account), and even the winner is not guaranteed of breaking even on his sixty cents, but I like to think of it as money put into a coin-op or a jukebox; a little cash for some good entertainment.
That was a bit harder than I thought it would to program. Stupid excel. Anyways, without further ado…

Nesta is at 71% currently, but doesn’t have enough games to qualify.
Man, if I can just keep from sucking tomorrow, I can stay in the hunt!
Thanks for updating the scores, I guess you ain’t such a slacker, after all 
Uh, what do the percentages mean?

“Accidently” kicks GO in the keister, knocking him down
Oops, sorry about that. 
If you look on the first page, 3/4 of the way down you’ll see this link, which explains the ranking system we’re using.
::walks over to GO, looks down, and thinks “I can’t kick a man when he’s down”::
Well, maybe just a little…
Glad to see you guys have found a new whipping boy!
::runs up and kicks Duke in the nads:: :eek:
Fifth place is unacceptable…prepare to be M’Fed by the M’Fr!
Sneaky little bastard. Thanks for the warning.
Hey, guys! I’ve signed up but I’m on the road this week, with a slow dial-up connection that I need to restart every 30 minutes, so I may be a real nuisance tonight – fair warning. It might be best if somebody else initiates the chat … any volunteers?
Also in the way of a warning, there are version updates again, so you late signers-up need to allow an extra couple of minutes.
Finally, if there’s anybody new to the PT game who wants to get in tonight, post your PT name and ID number here as soon as you can. I’ll check back around 7pm EDT and try to get you in the game on time.
Nanny, thanks for the rankings!
We’re still going to steal your blinds while you restart. Because, well, that’s what we do.
“Some Players” even do better when they don’t play
We’ll put up with the restarts, just hope one doesn’t come up right when your in a big ol’ juicy pot and it all-in folds ya! (not sure how this site handles it, I don’t think I’ve ever been cut off…)
Geez, you guys are swell!!
Well, I’m in for tonight. I decided to bite the bullet and deposit the $20, then I won three bucks playing ring games. So right now I’m playing on other people’s money. Yeehaw!
Sorry folks, but I need to milk my lead. I’m out tonight. (Actually I need to take a buddy to the airport)
Sorry for dropping out of the chat at the end. My computer sucks.
Good game. Nanook owes me 25 cents.
