Open Challenge February Pairings

[bakku]

First off, Scotch78 is aiming for 10-15k hands and needs a partner, someone challenge him!

I'll try and do an update post every week, probably starting on Monday 2/7. Try and get your hands in on time, please..if you take too long I'm gonna have CDC come to all your tables and wreak havoc. Remember, live hands are counted at 35/hr and I believe if .5/1 isn't your normal limit those hands count as half. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong).

Anyway, here you guys go, pairings for the month:

dealer_toe vs witeknite
SomethingClever vs shadow29
mantasm vs Alobar
Seether vs jasonHoldEm
Transference vs emonrad87
MarkL444 vs Brian
Ponks vs DBowling ($100 sidebet)
bicyclekick vs Bunky9590
Perseus vs JinX11
uw_madtown vs detruncate
Surfbullet vs Chobohoya
Tosh vs sthief09
Chris Daddy Cool vs bakku (I get a 3:1 handicap)


Ok, it's the first day and CDC has 3k hands already. I have 300. Looks like I'll soon be getting a 10:1 handicap and I'll probably still get my first avatar.

If it makes you feel better I've got zero. /images/graemlins/frown.gif

Thanks for doing this, it's my first time and sounds like fun.

Feel free to match me up with him - had thought that I PMed you but I probably screwed it up. I was planning 15-20K for the month.

[bakku]

Sounds good! (I didn't get your PM, btw)

Ok I'm gonna make a slight change to the matchups to make it a little more fair

jgorham vs Transference and emonrad87 vs Scotch78.

I'll hold off until tomorrow on posting up a revised list in case anyone still wants to join in.

[sfer]

I need incentive to start playing online again. I'll match up with Scotch78 if I get a 3 to 1 handicap. There's no way I'm going to exceed 5K hands.

What is the wager?

You suck, you can add your hands to Josh's and face me. Bitch.

[sfer]

I have no idea what you're saying, but in the interests of my masculinity, all I can say is:

Bring it.

Fairer for who? I'm on dial-up!! /images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Oh well, ante has been upped, its on.

[MarkD]

I should do this some time. Maybe next month. I never play as many hands as I would like to (I would like to play 10k and I never make it, 15k would be great though).

[Ponks]

DBowling is going down. That is all.

Ponks

[MarkL444]

whats the rule on 6-max?

[Ponks]

As far as I know nothing changes. The tradeoff usually is that you can play more full ring games then 6-max so it pretty much evens out in the end.

I yearn for such a carefree and cavalier existence, one unencumbered by my perpetual and seemingly endless need to assist the compulsive, drunken, moronic masses with the dissociation of their riches.

It's recent. I've rekindled my love of beer and whiskey and my willingness to drag my ass to work feeling tired and dehydrated. And a ton of good bands are working their way through New York right now. /images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Tosh vs sthief09/sfer?
Chris Daddy Cool vs bakku

I've also taken the liberty of giving myself a 4:1 handicap. Hopefully it won't have to go up to 5:1 before next week.

[bunky9590]

I'm aiming to keep this one close, Kick averages 10k hands more than my biggest month, but, we'll see if I can save some face and not get totally pwned.

Definitely will motivate me to play more hands, hopefully the 3 outer machine gets turned off this month soon. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'm doing okay so far, but we're only 2 days in. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

[/ QUOTE ]

So weak its not true, why not play 1 hand, give yourself a million to 1 handicap and be done with. Pathetic.

[bakku]

haha 4:1 handicap was a joke, it's still at 3:1. If CDC stops playing 3k hands a day I should be able to keep this close.

[Tosh]

Fair play, sounds like CDC will need a whooping next month though.
