Re: Official 2+2 HU Tourney Thread - Planning/RSVP/ideas
[ QUOTE ]
Ok, Chuddo was definitely on to something, and seems like one of the only ones that actually cares enough to inquire and get this thing setup: [ QUOTE ] if a good solution dealing directly with a card room can not be reached, i submit: -we use someone as an escrow. -we play at whatever the lowest hu NL stakes available. (provided the blinds are in correct place). doing these two things will alleviate some of the issues that will suck if we can't get a cardroom to hook us up. -the rake will not chunk out any significant amount of money -players will not have to worry about moving any real money over to any sites. the amount of chips they need can simply be transferred over. someone will have to be in charge of all this to get it going and having it run smoothly. i offer my own services to run the thing, and have some ideas regarding the structure of the tourney and payouts etc. if there is enough interest and support, i can draw things out and get started on setting it all up. [/ QUOTE ] So, if you are interested in playing, RSVP in this thread so he can get a list together. I only know of HU play on Prima, but CreedofHubris seemed to think we could hook something up with pokerroom. He should be contacted. I also agree that random numbers should be given to everyone and then we can just set up a bracket. I also like Yeti's idea of money distribution. Obviously it depends how many people we get for this, but this has a lot of potential. Start RSVPing in this thread and I'll get a tentative list together of players. We'll also have to poll times that are convenient for everyone. I'm in. [/ QUOTE ] While the initiative is appreciated, I think that y'all are going about the process backwards. I think that it makes more sense to establish the guidelines for the tournament PRIOR to people committing. Otherwise, it's going to end up being a bunch of maybe-type answers strung together with suggestions. That having been said, in order to play along, I'll give my RSVP, reserving the right to back out like a little b!tch if I feel like it... ML4L

Re: Official 2+2 HU Tourney Thread - Planning/RSVP/ideas
I agree with ML4L. I'm interested and am willing to put up 1k or 2k if the structure is good. Perhaps a 16 man tourney where the buy in for round 1 is 1k, then 2k for each round there after. That way the players make money if they survive the first two rounds.

[/ QUOTE ] Again, I'll leave the planning to the planners, but I think that a really good idea being tossed around is the one about playing the match at micro-stakes and then settling up for the $1k or whatever afterwards. No need to pay extra rake, and depending on the structure, it eliminates the chance of someone winning/losing far more than the $1000 (i.e. if someone is $950 "up" already and then wins $2000 more to put himself over the threshhold, that ends up being $3k instead of $1k). Just my opinion... ML4L
