If 8-tabling will only be possible by having 2 accounts, I am assuming that they have no qualms with this and that players who have 2 accounts will be able to link these accounts for total rake calculations. [/ QUOTE ] That would be my understanding. |

not to rain on anyone's parade or anything...but the site actually has to have 8-tables running for 8-tabling to be possible. And for a brand new start-up site this might not happen. If they have some great marketing somehow (maybe they're attached to a sportsbook like Bodog or something like that) then maybe they'll have that many tables. If they're figuring out ways to allow players to 8-table then it seems they think that this could be a possibility. But there are enough start-up sites out there where 8-tabling consistently would be near impossible. So this whole 8-tabling bit may be a moot point. Of course...everyone will only know for sure once we learn the site and see what kind of action there is there. [/ QUOTE ] Hey Bob, You're not raining on my parade, you are just a realist. Me, I am an idealist with realistic expectations and I have all the same concerns you do. This site will have to do some serious upfront marketing to drive players to their site so it can handle this flow of high volume players. Here's hoping they can pull it off as it will be very beneficial for players, forcing the online poker rooms to compete harder for our business. |

Great Job O Doyle especially on the longer period for us that are low limit guys.

Also, would we get our choice of any WSOP event (including the WSOP circuit), and/or WPT events, or is there a limited number of tournaments we would be eligible for? Any talk of EPT events? [/ QUOTE ] A lot of these things will have to be fine-tuned, but it is my impression that they will be fairly flexible. |

When do we start? [/ QUOTE ] I am thinking and (hoping) it will be sooner than later. |

You've done a really good job with this. Regardless of how it works out in the end, you really came back with a great answer to all the good questions I heard about the arrangement.

Re: O Doyle\'s Army - NEW UPDATE ON START UP SITE OFFER
A couple people who expressed interest in this idea are under 21, so I am really hoping they're flexible in which events we'd be allowed to enter since the list is a lot smaller for us. Great job overall Doyle!

Re: O Doyle\'s Army - NEW UPDATE ON START UP SITE OFFER
O Doyle RULES!
So um, can I re-enlist (given I wasn't going to be able to be part of the first wave of players, but I do want to get started on paying lots of rake over the next 9 months so I can go WSOP)? |

Re: O Doyle\'s Army - NEW UPDATE ON START UP SITE OFFER
glad that it looks like this thing is going to get off the ground and that some of the lower limit players like myself will have a shot as well.
I might not play high stakes, but i'm willing to put in a ton of hands to try and accomplish it. |
