Doc /images/graemlins/cool.gif

no love for party poker :-( hehe gj on gettin the ball rollin on some 2+2 games, i might have to get a stars account so i can get my asswhipped.

[DMACM]

Theres a 120 reload bonus running for a 600 deposit on Stars til the 28th. I want to do one of these it seems like fun.

[DrPhysic]

It is fun. And since I haven't posted this in a while, here's some promo for new players:

To all the lurkers and newbies out there:

Jump in.

Getting to play against top 2+2 tournament players at a reasonable buy-in one or two times a week is the best education money can buy! You PAY for your poker tuition. I know of nowhere that you can play against consistently good players at such an affordable price.

We want more players. To those who have watched, read, thought about jumping in to play... The Brown Trout games are FUN. They are also a way to learn poker from some of the BEST!

Getting beat by Toro, Patricio, heyrocker, or wayabvpar is a PRIVILEDGE! Because I learn something new every time they do it to me. And once in a long while, I manage to get bragging rights!

Jump in. You will be glad you did.

[/ QUOTE ]

Toro definitely has my number, I'll find something tricky to do to outplay him yet...

[vindikation]

I'll play the Pacific.

a quick question for DRphysic, will we have a game analysis after the game is over? if so maybe somethign can be figured out as far as a chat room or something to that sort where everyone can be involved in the same convo, taking turns seeing what is thought about each individuals play. Maybe as you bust out just hang around in the table skin and we can just use that or something. anyway ill try to get stars up and see if i can get my money in by then.

[codewarrior]

Fear the doughnut. I may sit with you all this week. That Tax Chick broad may show up, too.

[bluewilde]

Clearly my level of enthusiasm is embarassing, no one else is signed up yet /images/graemlins/smile.gif. I only went ahead and registered (Atlantic) because I worried about a cap, is there one?

[codewarrior]

Most people don't sign up until the last minute, in case they can't play. No cap.

[Isura]

I think I'm going to play this week, looks like fun.

[DrPhysic]

That does not make you the lone ranger.

Doc

[DrPhysic]

The results get posted on this thread after the games. HH posts, commentary on play, another misguided monograph about weak tight Docs, etc are all welcome. I don't do IM but I suppose I could learn if you guys want to set something up. I think stars closes the table pretty soon after the game is over.

Hanging around on the rail and bs'ing with the rest of us is kind of traditional. Watch the play, rofl at the chat line.

Doc

[DrPhysic]

Nevermind the socalled warrior, It's the tax chica that's dangerous.

D

[lem45216]

I think i may give one of these a go in the future (not sure about this wednesday as i might be out, and i need a stars account), they definitely seem like a great way to watch and learn from the masters. Excellent idea!

[durron597]

Yay "sticky" citanul, having a good moderator rulez.

[bookish]

I'm thinking about this, but it starts at midnight in the UK (yawn). How many enter, and how long will the tourny last
(roughly)?

[kasey2004]

Sweet a 2+2 tourney on stars, i have yet to play in one of these. Should be fun.

Probably a stupid question but, is "atlantic" and "pacific" for east and west coast ? or is it just anyone can play in either or both ?

/images/graemlins/spade.gif Kasey /images/graemlins/spade.gif

[codewarrior]

They are just names, anyone can play in either or both.

Calling it a "2+2" game is verboten - they are "forum" games.

[Big Limpin']

ok, its ON !!!

I will be making my trout debut today (in both oceans). I have already planned my day out. Copious drinking will be involved before, during, and after those games, so be prepared for a plethora of spite calls, PVSs, bluff calls, and checkraise bluffs.

I will be under the alias of "Heinrichsohn", the donk with the Beeker avatar.
I will finish 1st, or 1st out.

MEEP !!
BL' - (who hopes not to be passed out by then)

http://home.arcor.de/beeker/beaker.gif&lt;---one bad dude!

[fnord_too]

These are MTT's are STT's? NL I take it.

If this is an MTT I'll play tonight, Wed. I usually do a light schedule of a tourney or two and maybe a couple of ring games, so this fits nicely.

[DrPhysic]

We get anywhere from one to three tables. A two table game lasts about 2 hours. They play just about like a similar size SNG, except that with all 2+2ers we have less dumbski early fallouts so it takes a bit longer than an SNG.

Doc

[DrPhysic]

These games started a year and a half ago as SNGs. We changed to a private MTT so everybody that wanted in could get a seat early this year. And y they are NLHE.

Doc

[DrPhysic]

OK, If you wanna be that way... I'll have to decide between Heineken and Crown Royal for tonight. And I know I'm not the only one to imbibe during the games.

Doc

[DrPhysic]

Hey, that citanul guy is all right. How do we rate a sticky?

Thx.

Doc /images/graemlins/cool.gif

[tigerite]

If only you'd put the tourney on some time for us in Europe to play it.. I can't really stay up til 2 or 3am UK time

[reecelights]

Finally opened a Stars account about a month ago and have been looking for the Trout games. If I'm done with the wallpaper removal in the new house by 8:00 I will come make a donation to the 2+2 beer and whiskey fund.

Same screen name.

[codewarrior]

Europe had a game at 4:30pm EST for a long time - it got to the point that only 1 or 2 trout played in it, so it was dismissed.

[utmt40]

I'm gonna try and make it out tonight as well. Sounds like we'll have a decent crowd for once. See you at the tables.

[DrPhysic]

Go to the Tournament tab, Private tab, then look for

"Atlantic Trout" $10+1 NLHE at 20:00 Stars lobby time WEDNESDAY JULY 27
Password “supbro” without the quotes.

"Pacific Trout" $10+1 NLHE at 22:00 Stars lobby time WEDNESDAY JULY 27 Password “supbro” without the quotes.

These games are open for registration now.

Doc

[DrPhysic]

The "Atlantic" and "Pacific" games are open to anyone of course. They refer only to relative time zones that are easier times for people in those time zone areas.

The "Euro" game was at 4PM EDT which would be 9PM in England and I think an hour later on the continent (at least the closer parts.) It died due to lack of interest in about January of this year. If you have enough people that would be interested in resurrecting the Euro game at perhaps 4PM EDT Wednesdays (or earlier if that is what people want), let me know. It's not hard to schedule and post. We just didn't have enough players.

Get some friends together, either from europe or afternoon US players. I can give you a list to contact of all the people who played on the Europe team in the North America vs Europe Tournaments.

If you want to make this work, I would suggest that you make a post, probably on this thread, with a poll for time/day, asking for responses as to who would be interested, then send pm's to all our previous Euro players.

Doc

[Big Limpin']

well if we are taking requests, how 'bout a 2+2 STT "Canadian Great White Northern Trout"?

We will kill you with politeness, eh?

no euro's wanted to play - it seems they only come out for the NA v. EU challenge.

[bluefeet]

we need a bounty on this sucker just for kicks. as bust-ee, you xfer 5dullers to your bust-er. it might make your bubble bust less painful if you collected a couple bounties along the way. or better yet...added incentive to make your spite calls!

[durron597]

Eh, bounties shouldn't be standard. It's more fun to say "$5 to anyone who busts pergesu" for example (no, I'm not offering that, I want to bust him myself /images/graemlins/wink.gif)

OK ! now we talking !

I am putting a 5 (canadian) dollar bounty on myself in both games.

Ill pay via Neteller within 5 minutes, its about 4 bucks US). Only qualifier is that you must PM me after "the bad beat" to claim it, AND you must have posted *meaningful* trash talk in this thread before that tourney has started.

Cover your bets people...lets hear some chirping!

"Dr Psychic's mom could totally beat down Pergasu's mom in a ugly contest" No wait, pergasus mom pretty hairy. well, hmmm, depends if the judges are more disturbed by fat or hairy. /images/graemlins/blush.gif /images/graemlins/shocked.gif /images/graemlins/blush.gif /images/graemlins/shocked.gif /images/graemlins/laugh.gif

BL' - who hopes others will follow my lead...lets get a whole slew of bounties.
/images/graemlins/wink.gif

5$ to the blue-foot-buster (via stars xfer)

stars name: bluefeet

(ditto....must acknowledge via this thread to get your $$)

[IHateKeithSmart]

I like this bounty idea, but aren't you supposed to make them for busting someone else? I have $5 stars dollars for our humble organizer's Dr. Physic's buster (just noticed it wasn't psychic, as I thought all this time /images/graemlins/blush.gif ).

Post back to acknowledge, and offer your own bounty. I will probably only play the atlantic, I'm phatbeetz.

Requisite trashtalk - let's save everyone's time and transfer $10 on stars to me right now.

[bluefeet]

i'll get back to you BL...still waiting for your mom to get cleaned up and get out of here

[Superfluous Man]

OK, I'll try to get home in time to play this (by which I mean be a donk and bust in the first level). And just so I qualify for the BL bounty, BL's mama so dumb she sold the car for gas money.

Edit: I also acknowledge the bluefeet bounty.

That pic with the maple leafs IS Limpin's mama, and I threw her back, she has cold feet.

I am in.
/images/graemlins/cool.gif
Looking forward to getting my butt kicked. It has been quite awhile since I played, so I will have to work out the kinks in my game.

[octaveshift]

I'm in.

Looking forward to spite calling each and every one of you.

[Superfluous Man]

OK, registered for the 8 PM one. I plan on spewing rap lyrics in the chat box and missing lots of hands due to eating dinner. I'm looking forward to never bluffing, having a 5% VP$IP and sneaking into the money.

Edit: s/n is Pechorin. You may remember me from the time I accidentally jammed with 9-high because I thought I had a flush.

[DrPhysic]

The bluefoot couldn't beat his own mom at cards. And I'll do the busting, TYVM!

Doc

[durron597]

C'mon guys only 16 players we can do better!

[DrPhysic]

:-)

[bluefeet]

thanks for the /images/graemlins/grin.gif...i hope the last 2 hours aren't an indication of what's to come.

&lt;--- considering dropping his bounty to a shiny nickel

[bluewilde]

Psh, back off Blue, the only dead money tonight is me /images/graemlins/smile.gif.

[bluefeet]

31 BABY!!!

That's right...I meant business!!

/images/graemlins/confused.gif

[reecelights]

I tried to beat you to the punch

Out AQ v KK when flop came Q42

30th. Anyone get the bounty on you?

[bluefeet]

nah, some T7s limp/raise caller /images/graemlins/frown.gif ....asked what site we were affiliated with, not sure how he got there

(JJ in the SB, hit trip on the turn...got a 'tad' aggressive w/ my reraise /images/graemlins/blush.gif)

[fnord_too]

Bah, didnt make it to my computer in time for the 8est one, may try to the 10 est one.

[reecelights]

Cool. I went out in 30th of 31 in an attempt to set the bar really low for myself, as this was my first Trout match

Hopefully I only get better after this!

[shish]

I'm in for the Pacific one. First time playing in one of these.

Killerbeez was pushing and/or raising every single hand at some point. He raised my BB and I jammed with Q8o, hoping he'd have something like 87. He woke up with a real hand, Ax, and called. I say "all aboard the suckout train" just before the river provides me with the Q.

"WOOOOOOOOO WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

So, who got my final auoposted blinds in each games? I'll still make good on my bounty.

Hey, these are weekly deals, no? I'll be sure to pace myslef better for the next ones /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[bluefeet]

dude! you're too much. watched your sorry ass blind down in both of them (well, not long in the 1st one!).

next week. no drinks until 1hr prior.

[bluewilde]

Turns out I'm not the best heads up player...whoops /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[IHateKeithSmart]

We were worried about you. At one point I was dispatching someone over to wake you up. Drinking martinis at 2 in the afternoon is never good.

Anyhoo, this was fun. I sucked out a ton and ended up third in the pacific tourney. It was good playing with everyone.

About an hour into the game my hotel got hit with the storm blowing through and took out the wireless Lan. Two sets of blinds being up for grabs at the same table ! (RealJobu)
