    That is kind of where we are coming from Davey. €25 monthly is not very attractive but might work better weekly or fortnightly. We are working on these thing so keep the suggestions coming. At the same time we are unlikely to change the €50 monthly game for the foreseeable future.

    Right everyone get ready to shout at the noob!

    What the hell is a freezeout tournament?

    Me and about 10-15 of my mates have been having regular (2-4week) games and are getting seriously into our poker.....3 or 4 of us in particular.
    We want to branch out and see just how good or even crap we really are.

    What do you recommend we do?
    Come along to this freezeout match, or go to a free in night?

    I have only signed up for this today by the way, but I'd say I'll be here alot from now on so be nice.

    P.S. You may want to save this posting, as it'll probably be worth money once I've won a few WPT championships. :D

    A freeze-out tournament is one in which you can't rebuy more chips if you go out. Once the stack that you started with is gone, you're out. Freeze-outs are generally much tighter games than tournies with rebuys, as there isn't the safety net of being able to get more chips if you lose an all-in bet encouraging people to play looser.

    I'd recommend going along to the Fitz of a thursday just to get acquainted with what it's like to play poker in a casino tournament (see this thread for information), but I would definitely come along to the 50 euro freeze-out organised by boards - it's an excellent game. good standard, good atmosphere and good prize-money.

    Oh, and everyone that posts here has one a couple of WPT championships. You'll soon see it's no big deal.

    DaveyDevil:Whoever suggested the nametags, I hope they are taking the piss cause I ain't wearing one.

    How about havin' the top 8 finalists from last months game wear a target, so we can all gun for them? :D

    The 25 game is in the pipeline, be cool.

    This time no bad beat prize but I like the idea of gunning for the previous winners and will work an idea around that maybe.

    Will write more when in a country with qwerty keyboards. Stupid French.

    Thanks again lads for all the organising, really lookin forward to it - right after the BSOP july final too so I can wear my crown :p


    Any chance of HCGA after or are you renting the room by the hour?

    Maybe worst come to worst, they can even give us dealers and take a rake in place of rental?

    Just an idea for some month.

    Bo!
