I have, at the very least, $50k behind ready to deposit, besides the money I have online. The game has changed whereby I cannot get enough volume unless I either play the highest stakes, or play $100s. I don't like mixing them because I like having the increased focus that I do from tabling less hard. I would rather just take the shot because its difficult to mix $100s and my hourly is far worse.

Also its really annoying, in the last 3 weeks I think I ran above like two days out of 21 or something really stupid. I know variance has no memory but I just wanna gambool and see if I actually run 140 bad or whatever I need to run in order to be forced out of the game.

I wonder wether the SNE trophy will be even fancier. I really wonder why they didn't promote it though, some people might have tried harder if they knew there was a nice trophy included . Everybody likes a nice trophy!

No info on the videogame, sorry -- not really allowed to say anything on it. I intend for it to be extremely popular. The closest thing like it in terms of core gameplay is probably Sirlin's "Codex" game [but his game is intended basically only for hardcore players, and probably won't have the sort of "rounding" necessary to be a super popular game.]

I initially thought we would do a kickstarter after a meeting a long time ago. After review, I agree with the team and our inclination is that we won't do it (costs [there are many indirect ones] outweigh benefits) but that we will also review that decision in a few months.

If you are really interested in eg. being a beta tester, maybe email me [alexwice at gmail]. There will be a beta in stages (eg. stage 1 100 people, stage 2 1000 people, stage 3 10000 people.) But even stage 1 won't happen for something like 4-12 months (depends how fast other people work on it which I don't know. I wanted to say 6 months but these things are often slower than they seem they should be. Sometimes I get surprised too though.)
When they first told me about the game 2 years ago I kind of laughed at the idea of it since it sounded so complicated that I couldn't imagine any mainstream appeal(one of the titles they were considering was "A Game of Pure Skill") but after Alex and the other designers showed me a preview of it- I'd highly recommend anyone who likes strategy games send off an email for when they start beta testing.

One night we were considering what to do that evening at 5:30pm and they decided to show the game... next thing you know its 9am and I've got a new favorite game

jesus. at first i was wanting to defend you from all the haters in here, and then i came across a picture of you and realized how much of a dbag you are. you grinded the singe table satellites at the WSOP a few years back and never gave a single tip to the dealers except for the last game of the year where we chopped and i forced you to. good luck with the video game, thats a really easy field to crush, not much competition either, and all your button clicking skills will go far there.

if they do this now, they didnt at the time. these are just live single table sngs, so not the mega sats that have multiple dealers.

Forcing him to tip? Ironic that you're calling him a dbag.

This thread would be a good place to have a "tipping in poker," discussion.
