$4/180 Challenge - Tonight @ 7:30 EST

Ontario_Tory · #1 10-10-2006, 01:42 PM

When: Tuesday, October 10th @ 7:30pm EST
All members must register for the next FOUR 4/180s on PokerStars AFTER 7:30pmEST (19:30 Server time). If a tournament has less than 20 regged at 7:30 then that tournament will be the first one. I will post in this thread when we are starting.

Cost: Please send $10 to Ontario_Tory on Stars. (That's Ontario_toRy, not toNy... Make sure I'm in Toronto before sending the cash...)

Scoring: Same as last week:

Missed tourney = 0 points
180-150th = 0 points
149-120th = 0.5 points
119-100th = 1 point
99-80th = 2 points
79-60th = 3 points
59-40th = 4 points
39-30th = 5 points
29-20th = 7 points
19th = 9 points
18-15th = 10 points
14-10th = 12 points
9th = 15 points
8th = 17 points
7th = 19 points
6th = 21 points
5th = 24 points
4th = 27 points
3rd = 30 points
2nd = 35 points
1st = 40 points

Wins and final 3's are HUGE in this stucture. Tie breakers go as follows.

1st tiebreak - Total Monies Won
2nd tiebreak - Highest Finish
3rd tiebreak - 2nd Highest Finish

If tied after that it is chopped

Payout structure is the same as last week - notice it's a bit different than the 20/180 challenge - a bit flatter.

Payouts: Less than 10 = 1st-100%, 10-19 = 1st-80%, 2nd 20%, 20-29 = 1st-60%, 2nd-30%, 3rd-10%, 30+ = 1st-50%, 2nd-%25, 3rd-%15, 4th-%10

I'm not 100% sure if I'm playing this week, but I can definitely manage the $$ and post updates every little while... So who's in?

Same name. Week #2 for me, I got like 4th-5th or something last week after Nimda owned me KK > AQs.

Money coming later Tory.

No, Party Poker isn't kicking US clients out for like another 270 days or so, and PS hasn't decided what it's going to do yet. If PS stops its US players from playing it's not going to be for a little while.

Oh. Great news! Me = retard for not knowing this.

I just know that by next Tuesday you U.S. guys will still be playing on PS. I may not be correct on anything else I said though.

[/ QUOTE ]Awe, come on. You know you want to play tonight. This is WAY too much fun to pass up if you can play- plus I won't be playing next week. My company is having a "casino night" for my department. It was my suggestion to the social comittie so I can't very well not attend! Plus, I'll have too much fun owning my cow-orkers at fake-money Texas Hold Em.

So if you want a piece of me, gotta do it tonight [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
