Obviously, anyone with a job would have a hard time with that kind of schedule, which leads me to think it's geared more towards grinders, pros and degens. [/ QUOTE ]Whatever. If a guy wants to put up the money, he can play. AMIRITE?

Re: *October TLB 2 Player Teams Contest* Interest Thread
hay guys, glad to see this will probably be a success [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]. Went over the thread, and made some changes.
-Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker (these are EASILY the biggest two MTT sites, most entrants, fattest prize pools, etc., so no bitching) -Results will be posted every week throughout the month, and data will be collected from thepokerdb (so make sure you are OPTED-IN) (anyone interested in doing this? haha, ill be too tired from playing) -Using Pokerstars TLB system Points = 10 * [sqrt(n)/sqrt(k)] * [1+log(b+0.25)] Where: n is the number of entrants k is the place of finish (k=1 for the first-place finisher, and so on) b is the buy-in amount in dollars (excluding administrative fee). -Two Tiers, $200 per team and $1000 per team. You have to enter both tiers if you want in the $1kteam, so it's really $600 each. (like the $4/180 challenge, will probably be using the same payout structre as well). A $1k team will probably scoop but you can still make decent TLB under $50 buyins (for the $200teams). If there is no demand for the $200 I just may get rid of it (would like everyone to be able to enter) -Any tournament that thepokerdb lists is eligible. I notice 180 mans from stars appear but 180 man from FTP don't... anyone know what's up with that? -Top 25 scores for each person COUNT, so if your partner is slacking, shoulda choose a better partner, so 50 scores from each team, top 25 cashes from each) [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] everything look good guys? also I don't really like the idea for 3 person teams, but next time maybe. ps i am partnerless for the time, keeping my options open though.

[/ QUOTE ] Haven't been playing much lately.. just here and there, willing to buckle down and play a lot for one of these though. Will be playing a lot live in the coming months too, starting in Nov for the most part though.
