OT: *STTF-HUC-II* - Blind Draw Calcutta
I will organize just ONE Calcutta for the *STTF-HUC-II*. It will be a 32-spot ($50/entry) Blind-Draw Calcutta.
Anybody (all Sttf'ers welcome) who wants to play can xfer $50 to me on Party or Stars...PM me for account info. Anybody can buy more than one entry. If we don't get 32 paid entries, I will buy all the remaining spots so that we have a prize pool of $1,550; ($50 vig)....Once all the spots are purchased there will be a "blind draw" performed by 66's / Slacker progeny so that each participant will now "own" one (or more) of the *STTF-HUC-II* players. McPherzen won the *STTF-HUC-I* BDC and I'm sure he will attest to the pleasure of that little "BooYah" I was a little surprised that nobody offerred to "buy" an existing spot last year; but given the level of understanding/sobriety, I guess it makes sense. ToRepeat: All Forum participants are welcome to play the Blind-Draw-Calcutta regardless of whether they are going to the event or not....It's a pretty cheap ($50) way to participate even if you can't manage to be there. I will not organize either of the other Calcutta's this time around...Way too much effort required &/or nobody seemed to "get-off' on the whole thing anyway (Thank You Gigabet)....If somebody else wants to take a stab; "knock yourself out" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]"SFB" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |
Re: OT: *STTF-HUC-II* - Blind Draw Calcutta
skip,
i would like a spot in the blind draw. i will also put some work in to the other sidebets/calcutta this year, if i'm reminded especially. i have no $ in stars right now, so either can i lock up a spot and zap you dough later or can i do it through other means? |
Re: OT: *STTF-HUC-II* - Blind Draw Calcutta
Skipper,
Bump it up too $100 a piece and I will buy $2500 worth thanks to Yugo [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Thinnin. Seth |
Re: OT: *STTF-HUC-II* - Blind Draw Calcutta
What "other means" Nitwit?...Mental Telepathy?...Kidding aside, You're down Dude...Get me the $50 when/how you can.
Tell Yugo to pay me...Owe him? Let me know if you want help with Live Calcutta(s)...GrekeHaus did a great job of organizing an online site for Calcutta action & sidebets, so check with him. The sidebets turned out to be fun/popular, so we prolly should do that again....Except that I have a bad feeling that Zen was planning to stiff me for the $Mil if Yugo won [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] People "IN" , so far, for "BDC": 1.SFB 2.Citanul 3.Irieguy 4.Zen 5.66's 6.Slacker |

Re: OT: *STTF-HUC-II* - Blind Draw Calcutta
Could someone explain how this works and I'd probably put a piece in. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: OT: *STTF-HUC-II* - Blind Draw Calcutta
It's a lottery with only 32 tickets (23 already sold)..If you buyin ($50 for one ticket), you will have "pure" odds of 31:1 of winning $1,550....If you get lucky and draw one of the pre-tournament favorites(e.g.Lacky,Raptor,Unarmed), then you have much higher chances of winning....It's called a "Blind Draw" because the ticket-holders will be assigned their players by virtue of a "blind-draw" (all luck)...The drawing will be held as soon as all 32 spots are sold, so each "owner" will know who his "horse" is far in advance of the actual *STTF-HUC-II* and there will be some serious side-betting going on.....Let's suppose you draw Irieguy and I draw Yugo; then I would bet $1 against your $1Mil that Yugo will win [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]....Got it?....Get in!
PS: I do not conduct the drawing...It will be conducted in the presence of 2 respected 2+2'ers (Suited 66's & Slacker) (well maybe not respected, but old anyway) and it will be performed by their children; Kianna (of pink Tutu fame) and James (a bright young man with more sense that his Dad) |

However, I don't want to put the money up (at least not all of it). So I can either "buy" all the initial entries for $0, which would be really lame, or one or more people can help me put up the initial funds. Any comments/suggestions about this as well as stakes, payout strucutre, etc would be welcome. I'm gonna stay busy for a few weks, so likely, the calcutta won't be ready to go for a while anyway. --GH |
