Trying to figure out party satellites (rant)

The full event will run over 5 days and feature many variations of poker.
Championship game has been set at $ 5000 CDN buy-in plus $250 registration fee. Why $ 5k CDN/? We want the world's best to come to our event and TJ made it clear that anything less would not be attractive for our favorites to come.

Well, if TJ says it then it MUST be true.

I sent party an email too Bob, and i specifically said WHERE, and WHEN, and my earlier reply is what they sent me. I don't think they know where or when, which is kind of amusing. Apparently the first SAT is on Saturday, and has noone registered yet. I don't know how anyone could play in this having no clue where or when this is. Leave it to Party Poker and Canadians to run the most confusing tournament ever.(*Note, i'm Canadian, before other Canadians get offended, its a joke [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img])

"Dear MicroBob,

Thank you for your recent inquiry to our Party Poker headquarters in Calcutta regarding satellites to our exicting CPC.
The CPC, (Caribbean/Canadian Poker Classic), will be held November 10th (possibly) throught December 14 (maybe) in the lovely St. Martin/Calgary area. Be sure to bring your swimsuit/skiis and take advantage of all that the lovely Southern Carribean/Northern Rockies area has to offer.
Our simple and easy to understand sng satellites are offered 24 hours a day. Instead of poker, the winner of the satellite will be the person who knows what they are actually playing for. So sign up today, and we will see you in in St.Martin/Calgary! in late November or possibly December!"

New update on the CPC. Check out http://www.canadianpokerchampionship.com Bob. It appears tbey don't even have a date or location yet? lol. It also says you must be Canadian to play in it, except for a few of TJ Cloutiers friends. Tj seems to be the spokesman or such. The whole thing seems pretty stupid, not sure.

Why would Cloutier give a [censored]? He's not even Canadian.

I thought he was because of his French surname and his CFL career, but then I hear he's from Cali.

Get Negreanu or something: An American spokesman for a Canadian event is a joke when we have our own homegrown talent.

My sides hurt from laughing so much. Without doubt the best/funniest post I've read.

This tournament is called Canadian Poker Champtionship and is located in, you guessed it, the Bahamas.

[johnnydingles]

Looks like Party updated their page with info on this and dates.

Jan 29-Feb 4, 2006. And yes, amazingly, the CANADIAN championships are indeed in the BAHAMAS, lol.

This makes no sense..

Have you ever dreamt about spending winter on a Caribbean island? Now you can, and get rich and famous in the process. How about a lovely trip to the Bahamas this winter? In between lazing in the sun and enjoying all the benefits of a 5* resort, you could also pick up your share of the estimated $2,000,000 prize pool.
