dmarc117 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 we should get the best huddler poker player and back him in these tourneys. i'd be willing to put up some dough. have one of the resident lawyers write something up. it would be a blast watching our guy make it to the final table. and possibly be very profitable too!!! and maybe they could wear some huddle gear for some great advertising too!!!! lets find the best huddler poker player!!!!

SheikYerbuti Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 With a name like moneymakers, how could he not be a good poker player? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brentastic Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 How would we determine the best player? If grits has his old data from previous years on pokerroom - I'm pretty sure I am one of the best if not thee best. I don't play anymore because I hate the moneymaker software.

Big Country Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 One thing I've wanted to do if I could ever get at least 10 guys to commit to it, is to have 10 guys put up $100 each every month. Each month they play a tourney, with points awarded based on finish. At the end of 10 months there is 10K in the pot, and either the top point earner to that point goes to represent the group (all having a 10% share) or they could have an 11th tournament where the starting chip counts were based on the points earned throughout the year, say 1000 chips for each point earned (if doing say 10 points for 1st down to 1 point for last) and whomever won that tournament would represent the group, again with all holding a 10% share. With this method, no single tourney would determine who represents the group (well, sort of with the latter method) so it would be a representative who played the best over the series of tournies.

You, Sir, are a genius! I would be HONORED to try this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 You, Sir, are a genius! I would be HONORED to try this. The other part of the idea that expands on this would make for a cool poker reality show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love this idea and I would love to participate - BUT we would need to figure out where/how to play. I wouldn't participate if it is moneymaker's software.

I wouldn't participate if it is moneymaker's software. If we were to do a Huddle version of this, I would strongly reccomend that anyone interested have/get a fulltilt account or pokerstars account. You can do private tournies for real small buyins there. Perhaps a Paypal of the cash upfront gets you the password to the monthly tourney which would be whatever the minimum buy in amount is for a provate tourney. One other thing that I would not be oppossed to was to do this for a smaller amount for entry to one of the $1500 or $2500 events as well.

I've heard stories of people doing this before, with maybe a 110 buy-in, and the extra grand going toward airfare, hotel, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmypg Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I'd be game but I always said I'd rather do a 10K WPT tournament then the WSOP. The WSOP just seems like a crap shoot anymore. Besides WPT tournaments can be found yearly & more local. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godtomsatan Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 A guy my sister works with is playing in the WSOP this year based on a 12 person field they have with this setup. The local underground tables I go to have a weekly tourney and have talked about making it a collective thing where the winner gets a buy-in. You could even stretch it down to a $25/week kind of thing and do it every Wednesday or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
