Poker Tournament Next Wednesday Night

[Nightcrawler]

A couple of us guys are heading to the Casino next Wednesday night 14th Dec for Chops' Birthday bash and the weekly poker tournament. Anyone interested in coming?

Here's the rough deal - for more info Click Here

Basically you have to register (and pay I think) by next Monday/Tuesday (else it gets booked out), and it goes from 7pm till around 11pm Wednesday night. Basically it is about 60 people (or so I am led to believe), and if you finish in the top 10 you get your $75 back, and the prizes increase the higher you place. From memory the winner gets a bit over $1,000, and a $455 buy-in for 1st and 2nd place to a giant tournament in February.

Who's up for some no-limit Texas Hold'Em??

Worst case scenario is a couple of hours (if you're careful with your money) entertainment for $75. I believe you get 2,000 chips to bet with in the tournament, and they consolidate tables when people get knocked out. Most fun you can have with your clothes on, I reckon

[MattR]

yeah sh*t yeah. let him know i havent got his bank details to send him the cash otherwise ill give it to u when i get home?

[Nightcrawler]

yeah I'm sure he is in no hurry to get the cash off you mate.

How's the weather in sunny Olympic Dam? Boiling at the moment, I bet!

Fyi Chops was out fairly early in the tournament tonight, a mate of his Ryan was out in about 40th place, I was out in about 28th place, and Burgers (another of Chops' mates) made it to about 18th place. Not too bad out of 70 players. Had a ball!

[chops]

Stupid cards.

Big hand first up, and losing 1/3 of your chips to a better hand sucks.

All down hill from there.

[Nozila]

[Nightcrawler]

we left around 10pm I think .... ah well, next time

[MattR]

[chops]

Them's the breaks Matty.

Sometimes you win on a big hand, sometimes you get done by a bigger one.
