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 not to 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.

Thanks for the recognition. I don't know if I should play just yet because my ban ends Feb. 5th. I SO wish I could play as I really could use the money and practice, but I can't. Please, if from now until Feb. 5th (that's on a Thursday, so if i get nominated that week, I would be able to play) you want to nominate me, can you make it an honorable mention? I don't want to take others places. If you want to invite me, thats fine by me. I would just feel bad if I took someone's place who deserved it and could have won.

Now what to do with this invitation. I can sell it on ebay! Lmao. But seriously, good luck everyone and I can't wait to play with you all after Feb. 5th (will end towards the end of the day, so when I am able to play, I will probably see you all the next day.

Wow gamer...I have to say I am really proud of you for sticking this thing out. Can't wait til you come back tho...I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss playing with ya!

[gamer4life27]

Thanks lilady, but I didn't know I was THAT much of a donk that players actually want to play with me.

Edit: I would be lying if I said I didn't miss playing with ya also.

[liladypokerpro]

LOL not a donk, just fun to play with

[Fictive]

Thanks for the nomination. For once I DON'T have to work on monday, so I'll probably get to take part in this. It's been a long while since the last time I played with the good people of rakeback.

[Wyte22]

Good luck ya'll, after trying for 30 minutes to even get to the PTOTW tournies, it kept freezing and locking up on me, I give lol Next week I'll be on my desktop and I know it can run nordica

[liladypokerpro]

Dammit! I was looking forward to playing with ya....IT'S BEEN TOO LONG!!!

[Wyte22]

as was I! I even knocked myself out of the Freeroll on Full Tilt to play on Nordica lol and then Nordica hates on me but it's all good, there will be more and the supa donk shall be there

[liladypokerpro]

True, I just don't know how much longer I will have access to the few sites I have left...the full ban is supposed to be implemented by Jan 19th...

Thanks rakeback for the opportunity to play in one of these. I finally saw some return on this one even though it took sucking out with KJ against AJ (on gainer?)... sorry again.

[lakedweller]

My apologies to all who played in the tournament. I registered a few days ago, then was unable to play today. I hope this did not adversely impact the tournament.

[C8H10N4O2]

I don't know if it did or not but I think it was ok. I was sitting out for the first 40 minutes or so. My alarm did not go off in time to actually start the tournament... but luckily I hadn't blinded out yet.

[liladypokerpro]

LOL was anybody on time today? I was almost a half an hour late myself...no excuse, tho...just simply lost track of time.

It was fun...glad everyone enjoyed themselves, and as always I enjoyed goofing around with everyone.

[irishpkr]

Here is the JJ vs JJ (still cant believe you :P) hand from my view

[GainerRakeback]

Thanks rakeback for the opportunity to play in one of these. I finally saw some return on this one even though it took sucking out with KJ against AJ (on gainer?)... sorry again.

Yes that was the 2nd bad beat that finally did me in. The first was my raise w/JJ against lilady w/66 and indyice w/77 who both went all-in. Only four outs between them and they both catch one ! Flop= 67A.
Here's what the damage looked like to me:



It was still fun. Thanks RB.
