not that I care, but isn't this format just a 5 hour rebuy tourney?

Sort of, except it sounds like there is no max buyin...? Seems like a pretty cool idea.

O/U on the rake?

I might actually download laddies again to watch this when it goes down - sounds crazy fun even for someone like me who hates sweating games.

Default Update

There are 9 out of 12 seats filled now. Tore Lagerborg has been switched against the player known as "pokerkong1" and "kris85" (Kris Kjöndal). TheSalmon or Erik123 is still on as well as Pokergirl1, Nebuchad, Terken89, B60KY1, Theah and as i know Ziigmund has accepted. The last one i dont remember.

Also Mohammade Kwassari known as "Fastfreddie", "Terror of sweden" and "The Terrorist" (not sure about the spelling) will be asked if none of the already accepted players dont have any problem with it.

I think its a really cool initiative by Ladbrokes. One term is that if a player leaves after less than 2h30mins of play all eventual winnings will be forfeited. This and the fact that the biggest stack wins will hopefully create some really interesting deep stack poker, which will probably one of the few times, (if not the first time in online history), that this kind action can be viewed.

Has there ever been a 100-200 game that is full? if so, have each and everyone had a stack that is more than 20K? if so, after a few hours of play the stacks will be so deep that this event will surely be unique, no?

Also ladbrokes is working on launching more interesting highstakes events in the near future.

So there are ten players now. The list will be definte later in the afternoon.

TheSalmon, Pokergirl1, terken89, Nebuchad, Pokerkong1, Theah (ept winner dortmund), B6OKY1, Zupp (Peter Jeppsen a very succesful player who won ept warzawa), Mohammade Kwassari (again apologize for the spelling. He is the legend fast_freddie!!!), cookiedough (a somewhat known tournament player). Ladbrokes has yet to hear from Ziigmund and maybe durrrr will be able to play...

Edit: the first heat will take place 19.00 BST tomorrow 17 okt.
