Re: Are Poker Contests going to be popular in the US ? Recent Court ru
I've been thinking about how this could apply to cash games, and I think I came up with something that might work. Maybe you guys can expand on it a bit.
It is a poker contest with guaranteed prizes. Basically, instead of paying a rake, the participants would pay a time charge. Say you have a $50 buy-in. The contest could start at time X and run for 30 minutes. With 9 players, you could guarantee a prize of $441, keeping $9 in fees. These could run everytime a table fills up. I think this meets the criteria. It would be a little bit different than your standard cash game as you would have to wait for the table to fill for the contest to start. And then the contest could run until time was up; at which point the contestants could just join another contest. Perhaps there could even be a 'play again' option and a 'waiting list' for players who choose to not play again. Let this post cover me in case someone tries to claim a patent before I do. |
