I would be in favor of something like that - let's split the difference ....
5000 chips/player
No re-buys
Blinds up at whatever is a moderate pace for a 60-90 minute game.

Blinds are fixed. I have no control over blinds.

I fixed it. 😉
Never be shy to point out something or to make a request.
We have a new member signing up. Becoming very popular. Spend some time just competing fiercely against member hell bent on getting you free play chips!

I have every tourney set to track points...however it only does it once in a while. Seems like the longer time ones.

I got knocked out early yesterday ….. couldn't catch a break …..but I had it coming !!!
And, LOL, the dealer hates you ….. and you know I caught some donkey hands late the other day to knock you out ……. sometimes things like that happen. Actually felt guilty at least one of those hands was 80/20 ...
Did the same thing to Whupapup, like 3/4 hands on a session before that to knock him out too. I caught a 5% on the river with him. I was ashamed of myself actually.
Just dumb luck sometimes - I can assure you most of my first place finishes are pure fluke.

I played like a loose donkey last night...however my cards were well below normal average distribution. It was one of those streaks where most hands hit slightly better.
Next game...Watch out!

Today's games
Running one at 2, 3 and 7 tonight. Not sure how many are around during the day. If enough players I will set it up. If not...keep to weeknights and a few on weekends.
Cheers
Sun
P.S. Don't spend all your winnings at one place!

I think we had 5 players yesterday afternoon. The interest seems to be there.
Could we convince you to set a permanent scheduled game up for 2pm ?

How about a post of AO names to go with our Poker names. I only have a couple figured out.

Thanks Pikergolf. Yourself as well . We seem to play a similar game. It takes a while to adjust to different players doesn't it ?

I think Sundance shows it in the first page here.
The "home games" tab is lowest right hand side.
You can PM him and he will give you details and password.
