Maybe GamingClub should be renamed "TruePoker junior", or "TruJu".

I'd play 1000 hands for 1% of a decent player. I think other players would too - just look at the success (I think) full tilt has had with their pieces of the pros tournaments.

Mind you, the Gen Pub probably want a piece of Hellmuth rather than some banana.

Even if 1% of you is only worth $50 that's still 5c a hand which isn't terrible (not trying to say that you're below average, more likely it's worth about 11c a raked hand, but with huge variance).

Honestly, I would rather have a piece of myself than of Hellmut, atleast I do not whine over going out on a bad beat [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think I am above average in any tournament that got 6600 players, but for argument sake lets say that I am average.

The variance is high, but so are the possible payout! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Anyone know the turnout on Full Tilts tournament? were they a success?

I'd rather have any of a number of solid players, but my friends at the bar haven't heard of you, and they've heard of Hellmouth.

If you get this going, I'd be quite keen to see the details.

If I am investing my 1000 hands, which I will, you better not be going out. Heck, if you plan on winning the thing, I will play 2000 hands for my 1%.

that is a pretty brutal beat at the end....I think I ended up taking out colson at the final table...I know I took out Scott Fischman (emptyseat800)....I remember you though and thought you were a good player.
