U.S Poker Bowl - complete joke or potentially viable?
the first PokerBowl™ is taking place in vegas from oct 20-23
despite the participation of many pros from a wide variety of players (tv mtt pros, known online mtt players, high stakes live and online cash players), i think it is kind of a rough concept that is going to be executed poorly. click here to read about the format also more info on the website's FAQ i will leave it to astute readers to point out some of holes in this structure, concept, and rule set that said, ill be rooting for team raptor! |

Re: U.S Poker Bowl - complete joke or potentially viable?
seems kind of cool. the idea of disallowing baseball signs but allowing chip placement signs is kind of dumb though. obviously you can't police collusion in this format so they might as well just make all forms of collusion legal.

Re: U.S Poker Bowl - complete joke or potentially viable?
so you're on a team??..that's terrible. You buy in but your buddy donks off the chips and you fight. Poker is a one man game for a reason... Depending on others' play makes the tourny more stressful. This will die faster than the PPT (if thats possible....thanks Matt Corboy and Chris Bigler..and fake crowd track cheering in the background)

Communication: Players are NOT allowed to discuss strategy at the table, whether they are in the hand or not. They are NOT allowed to indicate their hands, regardless if they are telling the truth or lying. In addition, any kind of obvious signaling, similar to baseball signs or sign language, will also be penalized. The only type of communication permitted are any unenforceable gestures such as chip placement, a player scratching his head, adjusting his or her sunglasses, etc. [/ QUOTE ] This just seems like a training ground for cheating. Amirite? |
