The Return of the "Grudge Match" !

Gholimoli

just wondering if ppl are interested in grudge match part two.
seen as in the first one ppl expressed their interest in a similar match again ,i was wondering if there is still interest to get this going again.

the first one saw the following line up fighting in a "winner take all" one table tourny.
it was 10K stack with 30min clock and all the levels.
the line up was:
HectorJelly
Ollieboy
KpNuts
Dathio
Gholimoli
O'Callagh
BigCityBanker
PPPSpecial(he was very Special in this)
Mr PillowTalk.

it was won by the one and only HectorJelly and once again he came back from the dead to kick ass.
i suggest a very similar setup for the tourney and it's only fair that first choice should go to thoes who made and effort to show up in the first one.

just like the first one the event will be followed by "the night on the piss" in town.
please reply here if you are interested.
we will work on the date later when/if there is enough interest.

BigCityBanker

yeah - this was great craic, id be up for it again.

the feckers lost my bag and i had pretty much everything fit in to one bag.

Flipper

I'd be interested in playin if there's room.

Ollieboy

yeh count me in, but dates could be a problem with all the poker action on over the next few months.

cardshark202

Can I take daithio's place? Since he's in australia and all.

Hectorjelly

yeah definitely.

Ollieboy

Gholimoli
Olliboy
HJ
BCB

Reserves:
Flipper

Hectorjelly

if theres enough interest you could have two tables. Alternative just get everyeone to send me the money on stars and save the hassle.

This may have to be run as a side event at the EPT..

Flushdraw

If theres gonna be 2 tables i'll play. I'm all up for showing you superstars how badly i've deteriated as a player over the last 9 months so it should be fun watching me 4bet you allin with J10 only to be shown AA.

Of course though, i'll hit 2 pair and couldnt give a sh!t as long as theres 2k in my back pocket

NickyOD

I'd be up for a 2 table grudge match. You're all sh1t at poker anyway so the dead money makes the game very attactive.

Mr.Plough

Fatboydim

I might have to throw my hat into the ring as well as my belt , trousers, shirt and underpants.

Shortstack

Stick me down as a reserve. I can also get an amateur documentary maker to film it also depending on dates.

DeVore???

DeVore

Oi!

Depending on the buy in I'm interested too. This has to be the worst value tournament ever.

Also, HJ, I havent forgotten about our heads up grudge match. I'm still up for it, maybe at the Boards HU finals as one of the side fun games?

DeV.

Gholimoli

wow this is getting much more interest than the first one which im glad about.

we will make it a two table tourney this time .
by the looks of things places are going quickly so get your name in quick.
there will be places reserved for the people that played the first one unless they say that they dont want to play it.
im still waiting to hear from pillow and kp and that's pretty much the first table.

the second table would be based on first come/first served.

If the buyin is 200 or less I am in. I have equal grudges against everyone.

I'll add some value to the game depending on dates.

ok so the above is the second table and the list of reserves.
i still need 2more ppl to confirm from the first table.

as for the buy in i suggest a 250 buyin.
the reason being that it's not much to put ppl off but at the same time it's enough to make ppl play proper which is always good.
it will be a winner take all tourney as per last one.

now moving on to dates.
it will have to be a saturday.
i want to get this going asap to can people start voting on which saturday they can play from the below list:
Sat 15 Sep
Sat 22 Sep
Sat 29 Sep
and the first Sat in Oct.
please all thoes who are listed just reply and say which one you prefer.

I can play 15th or 22nd.

PS: Gholi, make it tables of 10, then I'm in Lol.

opr

Yeah 22nd would be ok for me.

Opr

5starpool

It is unlikely I can play the 22nd. 29th would probably be best for me if I make the list.

Flushdraw

I'm working on the 15th.

I should be good for the 22nd or 29th

BigCityBanker

im free whenever.

Fatboydim

22nd

Gholimoli

ok based on repliys so far looks like most can make Sat 22nd Sep.
so can every one who is on the list and can play Sat 22nd please say so here.
obviously thoes who have already said they can play that date dont need to do so.

also make sure you leave the whole night free as the last grudge match day ended with me,pillow,KP,BCB ,halibut totally hammerd and playing omaha in the jackpot at nearly 6 am.

Hectorjelly

Ollieboy

sikes

I should be ok for that day, will know closer to the time.

cardshark202

22nd is fine

ocallagh

Eshan I'd love to play this, but I can't make the 22nd - my sister is getting married on that day! If the dates are changed in any way then stick me down,it was a great tournament last time

Gholimoli

This is so far the final list for the grudge match on the 22nd.
The venue will more than likely be the Fitz.
I still need a few people to confirm if they are able to play on that date or not.
People have until next Tuesday to confirm their place otherwise it will be given to the next person on the list.
If any one on the list wants to drop out please let me know with as much notice as possible so that I can get a replacement.
Also there will be draws for seats on the day and the below layout is not how people are going to be placed.

Table 2:

Flipper
Flushdraw confimed
NickyOd
TheChopper confimred
Sikes confirmed
BigDragon confirmed
Fatboydim confimed
ShortStack confimred
Devore

Two things:
1. I think it might be better to draw for seats - that way all is fair.
2. If we are playing 2 tables - might I suggest that we pay top 2, 1st with 2/3s the money and 2nd with 1/3rd. What do people think?
