    The thing to do to make it safer for the proper two players to get a heads up tournament going on paddy power poker without an imposter sitting in is to (1. join but not sit in on an empty table. (2. Type a sentence in the chat section. when player 2 types a reply thats the 'q' tfor both to sit in immediately. (3. For convenience sake if its a $10 heads up game enter the lowest $10 1x1 table on the list that remains empty?.

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,295 ✭✭✭ionapaul


    I'll play, assuming life doesn't get in the way (it has the tendency to do that) - Stars, Party, PPP...

    Right, to date the following people have signed up:
    lafortezza, Imposter, okidoki987, careca, karlh, Waylander, DapperGent, Shortstack, BigDragon, NickOD, musician, Amarillo Fats, lennyleonard, Dub13, HectorJelly, bohsman, LordJimbo, Fathead, PokerEvents, Vamos, DaveyDevil, assensi0n, Marq, roryc, hallelujajordan, JuanPablo, biteme, padser, Bookable, Roundtower2, podgeen, willis, ionapaul.

    1) Closing dates for entries will be next Saturday the 7th May. I'll do up the first round brackets then.

    2) Each match is to be played on one of the three main sites that were suggested most often: Paddy Power Poker, Victor Chandler, PokerStars. If 2 contestants want to play on a different site that they agree on thats ok too.

    3) Matches can also be played live, in the Fitzwilliam/Merrion/someones house. As long as the two players are agreed on how it works and the live game's structure matches the online games as close as possible. Make sure all games are cleared and ok with the card clubs.

    4) The first round will have 1 week to run so you can arrange your busy schedules so that all games are played when it suits.

    This makes sense when setting up your matches!

    5) Each match should be played so that it is suitable for each players bankroll. IIRC VC/PPP have very small buy-in 1v1 games, less than $1 I think. Each match is played as a best-of-3 contest.

    6) If people do not make themselves available for their match their opponent gets an automatic bye into the next round.

    All of these guidelines are off the top of me head, feel free to make suggestions, if anything else crops up we'll deal with it then.







    Now to the good bit!

    I asked mcaul, who runs the Special Days Poker Supplies business that many of us have bought chips/cards/etc from, about a prize or a trophy for this contest. I was thinking that he might sponsor us a set of chips or else give me a generous discount to buy a prize myself.

    He went a whole lot further than that and has given us (for free!) a 7 foot professional folding table as the main prize. It's valued at €239 (current special offer price €199). It will be delivered free of charge to anywhere in Ireland to the winners door.
    You can see the table on the Special Days website

    I think that's a pretty savage prize.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭threebeards


    Yup, I'm in too. Usually VC for me. Again I'll have to be an online player only cos as DeVore will attest to after last night, it's a hell of a long way from Castlebar to the Fitz :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,619 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,322 ✭✭✭Hitchhiker's Guide to...


    Fitz only at mo...


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,806 ✭✭✭Lafortezza


    Fitz only at mo...
    That may be a problem, as alot of people don't frequent the fitz, ie if they're down the country or similar.
    Is there any way you can get signed up to PPP or something?

    Does anyone know of any sites to 1vs1 games with Playmoney?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,322 ✭✭✭Hitchhiker's Guide to...


    well, i do have $1 left in my vc poker - so maybe that can work! otherwise will put money in PPP
