I'm registered, as tomexcelon

We've got 8, we need one more to keep the tourney from voiding. Come one come all!

I realize that i am retarded, but i spent over an hour registering and trying to get money into my account. Since they dont like my credit or debit cards, I am now waiting for a few cents to be deposited in my checking account so i can verify that it is mine.

If I am able to, I would love to play. but i have never before had so much trouble having a casino take my money from me!!!

So who won?
 

Were there any bad beats?

I don't think it's until tonight!

Thanks, Sean!

Sorry going to dinner with the bosses

Next time ;)

So, how does one watch (and possibly cheer)? Do you have to download to do that?

William- you will need to download the software to be an observer.

I am registered under the name aisleorwindow :)

good luck!

I'm registered, but it seems to be Limit Hold 'Em and not NL. At least I won't go out in the first hand!

it is no limit. are you sure you're in the right tournament? my tournament lobby says "Level 1: 15/30 No Limit Hold'em".

Okay, I'm registered.

GL all.

Koko - are you playing?? Don't you want to try for another 'Ace high royal flush'? ;)

Ah, guess I just saw the "Hold 'em" in the registration menu and then the 15/30 and got confused. Good, I can go out on the first hand! Woooo. My favorite thing to do.

Promise? :D :p

Too bad. I can't do that from work. ;)

I'll see if I can download from home when I get there later tonight. Regardless, I'm a sucker for a poker game, so I'll try to play some other time.

missed your post!

are you in this thing?

Who won?

Update:
 

Well, it was not my lucky night: I finished 12th out of 13.

I was in the small blind with A 10, everyone folded to me and so I raised the big blind, jcooketo 150 (from 40). He reraised to 300, and I called. So, 600 in the pot.

Flop was A Q 10, so I was feeling good. I bet $400 and jcooke went all in. I called, but sadly he had K J giving him the nut straight :(

Next time you guys are all in BIG trouble!!! :D

As of right now, we're down to 8 (out of 13)

poor koko...
 

I wish I had a tape recorder of kokonutz crying b/c he was one minute late and missed the party... :(

My ex-friend mike is an asshat (but i am going to expense him Gordito's anyway).

The first FlyerTalk Poker tournament is over and JerryGuitar is the champion! He cracked my Aces early and carried my chips to victory.

We all decided to make it a regular weekly event so let's double the size of the tournament next week!

QL

Lots of fun, looking forward to doing it again

Sean

sounds like a great idea, i'll make a note to set up an account this week ^

I finally registered on the Full Tilt site last night (too late for the tourney, but thanks QL for the pointers on Neteller etc). Still learning to navigate the site, so I still have one question:
How do we know which one is the FlyerTalk $10 tourney? I saw the password listed in the first post, but what if there are multiple private tournies happening at the same time--just keep trying to register until you find the right one?

Thanks--looking forward to next week.

Was definitely a good time, I'll be back again.

if you narrow down the tournament choices by clicking the "private" tab, there shouldn't be too many starting at that time for that buy-in. once you click on the tournament lobby, it says "FlyerTalk" at the top. (at least that's how it worked this week). wasn't hard to find. there is also a tournament number that might be helpful to post after QL sets up the next one.

I registered last night to watch, but it was way too late by the time I got home. Would consider funding and playing - even began the process of opening a Neteller account - but I don't get home until around 9 PM Central on Thursday nights. Can you sign up to play and come in a little late?

Yes. You'll be forced to post blinds and your hands will be folded, but you can pick up where you left off.

Yikes. Sounds like I would need to get home in a hurry. An hour's worth of blinds and I might not have anything left. :eek:

Or perhaps we could think of occasional 10PM ET start time--might help west coast people join too.

Thanks also for the earlier guidance on tourney selection.

Rigmutt

As soon as I sign up, the table will turn red in the list. That will make it easier to find. Of course, I may not be able to play every week but I am already signed up for the 24th.

William, the tourneys are Wednesday nights, not Thursday.

QL

I'm gonna have to get in on thise :)

Maybe after we get this thing going for a couple of weeks, we could mix it up a bit so that more people are accomodated. One suggestion would be:

1st Wed of month: $10+$1, 9pm est
2nd Wed of month: $10+$1, 10pm est
3rd Wed of month: $20+$2, 9pm est
4th Wed of month: $$20+$2, 10pm est
5th Wed of month (next occurance is November): $50+$5

just a thought, although this might be more work for QL.

My bad. I knew that and just posted the day (Thursday) I came back to the thread. :D

But, Wednesdays are a long day for me as well. My short days are Tuesdays (soon to be changed to Monday) and Fridays. Not that I expect anyone to change the night of the game so I can join. I'm just trying to figure out how to work it in. ;)

I guess if you see me, I'll be there. I signed up under Brindle as a user id.
