Ptotw #127

[FlipCoach]

So...

I epically failed to get the ptotw running last week. Nominations were sorted and everything and it just slipped my mind on Friday, sorry for that.

This week's is already set up. 2-7 triple draw.

Those who were nominated last week will also gain entry to this tourney. Will post both lists Friday.

Again, sorry for the fail.

If you're reading this and want to know how you can get in the tournament or a future tournament, read this.

What I want to know is where the rebuy ever went to haha.

Poor me, No-limit holdem aficionado. Apart from the news of Nate the other links to the threads of the nominees don't seem to work.

[manofthehour]

Look at my post "pocket jacks in small blind", it's got 20 replies and over 200 views. It seems like it's bias with the nominees because the same people get in no matter what they post.

The difference is that all the posts nominated above had some substance to them and contributed to the growth of the forum as a place for interesting discussion. Not only was your thread "Pocket jacks in small blind" ridiculously simplistic and generalised but not one of the 20 responses to it was seriously attempting to address your post, with almost all of them being overtly sarcastic.

It seems that your entire purpose of being here is to post as many threads as possible in the hope that one of them will be nominated. Instead, try posting threads with substance that are good for the forum. For example, pokerbucket hardly ever posts, but what he does post is usually really interesting. If you're a beginner then post some hands you had trouble in or are unsure about, ask about table selection or good tracking software. If you're a good player then give helpful advice and analysis to people who ask, post some interesting hands. If you're somewhere in the middle then do bits of both.

Thanks for the invite Flip & RB!

[phaul]

Yeah, thanks very much for the invite. The structure looks pretty good, should be a decent game.

[travz21]

I have a late Thanksgiving get together during this. 2-7 is my best game, so consider yourselves lucky.

Agreed with Phaul.

Agreed with Phaul.

2-7 3way ?

[C8H10N4O2]

Dammit. I'm so tired of getting jacked up with eastern time.

[phaul]

Was a very fun game, thanks. Don't really know what I'm meant to do though when HU Flip draws 3 cards and hits a 9-high (happened twice).

[grimReaper]

lol, what'd you expect?

[FlipCoach]

What I want to know is where the rebuy ever went to haha.
