The drawing has been completed. For the sake of suspense and conversation, I will reveal each 1st round matchup as a seperate post in this thread (smack talking may begin under each sub-post), then I will post the bracket. Good luck to all participants, and be sure your vaccinations are all current.

Well, this could be very interesting since it will likely be Gigabet vs. Daliman.

Tough first round draw for both. I can't wait to watch it.

According to the rules you can announce all in as an overbet and the opponent gets to choose whether or not they wish to call the overbet. This leads to a lot of obvious angles imo. Are we (Am I) to assume that noone will be iusing these rules to their advantage or is the deal anything goes?

Yes, this is pot limit... which makes a big difference.

In fact, here's an open challenge to the group as a side-action game:

I will be willing to play a holdem game where we remove 2 aces from the deck and give them to my opponent. He will have 2 aces every single hand.

The rest of the deck will be shuffled and dealt to give me my hole cards and deal the board.

The betting structure is No Limit, but only after the flop. Preflop there are two big blinds, and there can be no preflop raising. The button will alternate for post flop positional purposes only.

BTW, it's supposed to be uneven. That should compensate for the fact that the $500 buy-in players are taking the worst of it by allowing full $200 value for each player if a $200 player wins it. This is a seeded tournament.

I predict the Apathy-Zen matchup will be a war.
Also, this may not be common forum knowledge, but Yugo is a very very good player.

My match will be a complete joke unless I play at least one hand of either PL OR HU holdem prior to the event. If I accomplish either of those two goals I should win in a cakewalk against a noteless Usher /images/graemlins/grin.gif

In fact, here's an open challenge to the group as a side-action game:

I will be willing to play a holdem game where we remove 2 aces from the deck and give them to my opponent. He will have 2 aces every single hand.

The rest of the deck will be shuffled and dealt to give me my hole cards and deal the board.

The betting structure is No Limit, but only after the flop. Preflop there are two big blinds, and there can be no preflop raising. The button will alternate for post flop positional purposes only.

I had to go to a drug-sponsored dinner tonight. You know... one of those things where drug companies give doctors all kinds of loot and booty even though they don't understand statistics... so, ok, right it was pretty good.

Then it's over and so ok we need to do something, so we go to Club Paradise.

Well, this girl is dancing without any clothes on and she's right on top of me and she looks like Catherine Zeta-Jones except 20 years old.

She says "what do you do?" and I say "I play poker and drink Heinekens and get lap dances and sometimes deliver babies."

And she says, "poker? I love poker... we should play."

And I say, "I'm running a poker tournament over Labor Day Weekend."

And she says, "can I play?"

And I say, "No, but you can come be naked and give lap dances and stuff."


And she says, "ok."

Sweet.

So, right...that's definitely a viable option...I mean...basically as long as you have a plan any play here is probably good....I mean, of course it's absurd to fold, right? So, we can't do that....I raise to t125, but ok, going allin like that is good too...I mean, mathemtically it's +EV....

Alright, new plan, I'm going to hire movers to move my crap into my new apartment, and send the gf to a spa or something so she doesn't get pissy about it, and then:

I'm going to fly to Vegas for the weekend and organize CaS-HUC, or at least the STTFaS-HUCL(w?)B.

Those are the Citanul and Strippers - Heads Up Championships, or the Single Table Tournament Forum and Strippers - Heads Up Championships Losers (winners?) Bracket.

I will be giving free heads up lessons to strippers. Yeah, I like the sound of that.

I really think this tournament should be Swiss with a single elimination final 4. That way you can have a number of people play who aren't a multiple of two.

I wish I had thought of that idea a month or two ago, way too late now.
