Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

Holy cow. According to the set up dialogs, we could put together a tourney for as cheap as $.20 + .02. We need to discuss and vote on stakes.

302

I looked at that again. It makes no sense. If you wanted a $1 buy-in, you have options of +.05, +.10, or +1. Why would anyone choose anything but +.05 for the house?

303

Is $0.50 a week too much of a burden for anyone?

304

That is weird. Maybe somebody else wants to set up a different tournament and we can abndon this one?

305

I shot them an email to verify/explain the buy-in structure.

BTW, Ihave alreadycreated next week’s game. It is calledSDMB Private, the password is ‘rudengrim’. It is $1 +0.05. I am looking at it right now with my own two eyes and that is what it says, so it better not change.

310

Just for giggles, I calculated the odds on the hand I went out on. 81.62% to win, after the flop.

311

Root, you got very unlucky there, no doubt, but you played it correctly. Just take faith in the fact that for everytime you are in that situation and you lose, you should win four times.

312

Today is my birthday. I neither need nor expect to win tonight, but I will insist that no one take my chips.

Please. :smiley:

313

Hmmm. They never responded.

I want to say up front this isn’t an attack on anyone. That said…

I’ve been pretty happy with our ranking system up til now. But someone needs to explain this to me.

How the heck can you come in 13th out of 14th and move UP in points?
If indeed that can happen with the current system, I would suggest we need to find a new ranking system, because that is just stupid.
