just thinking that it would be cool to pay out reverse some time. who goes out first gets top, second gets second ect ect or even second to go out gets first fourth to go out gets second well any way you know what i mean . just if you do try something like this do it on day when i am not there so i can realy kick myself for taking the day off. by the way you would give the game an odd name and keep the pay out structure secret. keep all honest!!!
That's the only way I could win
I like it
Crazy ideas.
Crazy is right. A payoff structure like that...especially were it kept a secret would piss me off. I doubt I would ever play another tourney at a site or forum that did that.Quote:

But according to your payscale Id be getting bank, so now i dont know what i want.
crazy idea, it might be fun to have it a low buy in 10 chips and get a lot of people..it would have to be a one time thing
Stop moaning! AK vs AQ chop and JJ vs QQ..... im failing to see a serious problem with those hands.Quote:

thats retarded, why would you want to pay out the worst players? only bad players would play in a tourney like that...
where do i sign up??Quote:

This specific event will be called the TPNDN (NDNPT backwards) and the payouts will pay in reverse.
I hate it when you spoil my fun:(
Fixed Limit FTW
I like the sound of it. I think overall with my horrible play, I'd definatly have a better chance of cashing :-p Sounds like fun though, ya definately gotta mix things up from time to time, think outside the box, and all that good stuff.Quote:

I was Chip leader by a mile with 5 left, so called an all in with 24 suited and donked off 20k of my 50k on purpose.
I then decided to try and take 2 out, and i did.
3 left, im back to chip leader.
I then nearly took someone out, he was down to 1k chips, with 1k Big blind. Ut oh!
I wont say how, as i need to save this for that tourney, info is awesome.
But i came third, by sheer matheatical geniusness
yea thats where i saw it.. i think it was for some poker tokers forum. Ya see, the prize payout is crazy because there all tokin weed, get it... But yea, thats definately good to throw in the mix, wouldn't want that to be the usual thing though :-/. Theres definately something to playing against everybody, whether it be bragging rights for some :-p, or just generally trying to play better, and having the people that you talk to everyday help by playing sharp. Honestly i dont know how itd work if you were trying to place in the bottom rung... wouldnt everyone just fold till the blinds got big?? the more i think about it now, the more i think itd be tough to work out... seriosuly. EEej im kinda interested now in how you would manage to play a game like that and not have everyone just fold around... i wish i was a mathematical genius :-(Quote:

Would be fun I think... if it was a freeroll..lol..
being on the money is already hard sometimes...
having luck to get the best place than would be almost imposible...
Hope to see some new things..

Wrong.
I had to put alot of thought into the betting for each hand. Preflop raising is fine, as if you get called then your on to the flop, if you get raised you just fold and give them the extra chips TYVM.
Now on the flop its different. If your 1st to act then only bet if youve missed. check/call if you hit it slightly, and check/fold if you hit big.
The thing about cake, which made it harder, is you cannot fold with no action, so if your 1st to act ont he flop you cant just fold your hand instantly, you have to fold to a bet.
I did it by simply calling his BB, he pushes for a bit more, i fold. Repeat this a few times, let him raise to try and get all in behind, and keep folding.
I ended up getting 3rd by some slight luck.
The chip leader and the shorterstack went all in. I "look down" and find K3 i think it was.
Now if i fold, and the CL wins, im 2nd for sure with a big chip loss, unless i can beat them HU, which is likely, but as a 5-1 dog your mostly gonna lose.
If i call, and lose, im 3rd and everyone is happy. If i call and win, im just ahead in chips and i play HU.
Was a simple call. I flopped a king, someone else had a pair, one guy was drawing dead. Luckily for me the river gave them trips (i had 11 outs to lose the hand) and i came 3rd.
Its not so much math as advanced play strategy.
when i posted i really thought i would have a shot if it came about.. but reading so far it could be a harder and more mind stressing game than holdem straight up!!!
