The tournament will be rescheduled for next Saturday, August 23rd.


We will send the tournament password to all of the nominees. This tournament is ONLY for the nominees, so we ask you to keep the password for yourself.

We reserve the right to ask Poker Nordica to not pay anyone who had access to the tournament outside of these players.

If you do not have an account at Poker Nordica yet, open a rakeback deal with Poker Nordica now

Dang, the one week I would most likely be able to play I don't get nominated. Oh well, good luck everyone.

[PointerJake]

Hey thanks for the nomination! Ill be there for sure. Good luck all

[frob23]

Thanks for the nominations.

PS. Has anyone else gotten the password yet? Because I usually have the PM right around the time the thread goes up (if I got nominated) but it's over 6 hours later and nothing's there.

[frob23]

I can't wait for Legion to get online. He's going to be so excited. He was telling me that he'd never get nominated because he didn't know enough about poker. I told him if he was just himself and participated that it would happen eventually. And look, it pretty much happened right away!

Have not received pw as of yet.

Later

[Legion III]

Man, I am so stoked! Thanks for the nomination!

And for the rest of you players… I may be new to poker, but you will know fear!!

[Wyte22]

Grats on First PTOTW win Legion maybe you can teach Frob something new!! just kidding

[liladypokerpro]

LOL right on Legion that's a good attitude right there! Looking forward to playing, although not sure yet if I'll be able to.

ps > did not rec. pw yet either, to answer above question...

[BUILDMO]

Although I try to keep my posts a little witty & wacky sometimes, I am dissapointed in not making the Tourney. I tried to get the honor to play. I wish all of you the best of luck.


BPL- Stay Tuned.

[gamer4life27]

Lol, I totally forgot I wouldn't be able to play anyways. I am putting on a magic show for some kids (around 50) for my family friend's kid's B-day party. It's not going to be much, but I hope to make some money out of this in the near future.

Again, best of luck to everyone, and congrats Legion on your first Nom. I know I was stoked on my first one too. I took 1st, so maybe fate will be on your side like it was mine.

[frob23]

Ah, so it's going to be next Saturday. I guess I can wait the week.

[liladypokerpro]

Okay cool well that's a relief...

My friend will download Nordica so I can play at party Sat. Cool.

Thanks rakeback.

[Vito_Nuccio]

When can we expect the password for the makeup tourney?

Thanks

[frob23]

I really expect to be there this Saturday. The only exception will be if Fay does the unexpected and strengthens a lot before swinging back into Florida. If that happens and we lose power or internet... it could be down for several days. It shouldn't be and I am trying to stay positive but it's possible.

If I can't make it... someone else will have to shatter Legion's dreams for me. I'm holding you guys to that. You saw his post in the tournament area about how he thinks he's the sit and go master with his 270% ROI (or whatever it was). Someone needs to put him in his place. I was hoping it would be me... but if it's not... someone else better step up and do it.




PS. And if he wins... and starts playing on there and getting rakeback... I will win too. So this is win win for me. lol

[Legion III]

Hey I’m no superplayer or anything. I was just trying psych myself up for the game.

[phosphorescence]

shucks, first time i got nominated too but i'm working when it's on

oh well, now maybe you guys will have half a chance hehe

[frob23]

There is no power at my house right now... so if that doesn't get fixed... I am out of luck.

I'm at my mother's and might be able to come over here on Saturday if I need to.
