We'll need a volunteer here to do that; Full Tilt doesn't have that feature.

How many players did it turn out to be this week?

I'm going to play one time for sure. It's just that 5pm is such a difficult time. :( boohoo

I think it was 17. Apparently it was split up between a couple of tables and toward the end the remaining six or so were transferred to the final table.

It was fun to watch. Hopefully, I get funded in time to join in next week. :) The time thing is rather challenging. 5 PM in Alaska is 9 PM in NYC and starting any later affects when they can go to bed for work the next day.

Maybe if the interest was great enough we could have two of these. One for Westcoasters and another for Eastcoasters and guys like me could choose which one they wanted to participate in. For me, the West coast version would be better because of my work schedule.

Then we could have a West coast vs. East coast tournament of winners. ^

5pm for us in Alaska is a difficult time but I was still able to make it work this week. Looking forward to your participation in the coming weeks.

Congrats again to Mark for his victory, locksmith(jaimito) for his second place finish, and to all the players for their participation and special thanks to QuietLion for setting this up.

Well who where the top 3 last week and how much? This week it is: markbach-$85; locksmith-$51; jerrylaska-$34.


How about on Saturday afternoon at like 3 PM CDT? That would be noon in Alaska and 9 or 10 PM for England and western Europe.

I was lucky enough to take 1st last week for $65

Jaimito Cartero Aug 25, 2005 5:27 pm

This week was $51 for second, last week was $41 I think. I don't remember who got third last week.

I'll be in Brazil for a month, and I know some sites don't allow you to play in certain countries. I guess I'll find out.

If i remember right, last week's third place was Scott B-something? I don't think he was a FT'er, but was invited to play by an FT'er.
Also, the payouts are 50% for 1st, 30% for 2nd, and 20% for 3rd, so:

Week 1
1st: $65 - JerryGuitar
2nd: $39 - locksmith (Jaimito)
3rd: $26 - Scott B
$130

Week 2
1st: $85 - markbach
2nd: $51 - locksmith (Jaimito)
3rd: $34 - jerrylaska
$170

Now if only my work schedule will cooperate. :eek:

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.

Are we on for Wednesday?

This is a fifth Wednesday coming up 8/31... is it gonna be $50 + $5?

And what time?

Still $10+$1 for now. It is scheduled for Wednesday, August 31st, 9 PM Eastern. When I signed up, it was the only one scheduled for that time slot...and the cast of usual suspects had already signed up as well. ;)

Ugh! Right at 5pm!! Maybe I'll register and get blinded in case I get home in time. I'd have to either play at work or schedule a late appointment with a client located near my home. Oh, and make sure it's one of those that will not stay 10 seconds past 5pm!! :)

I play online all the time but it's more fun when you "know" people. Not that I know many of you but maybe I will soon.

Thanks.

OK by me, the $50 + was more than I wanted to <strike>blow</strike> invest anyway.

IMHO, I think you should pay attention to your clients... :D

Jerry-
I personally wouldn't mind just keeping them at $10+1 just to keep it friendly. But, of course, I will bow to the majority.
