yeah so same tourney except instead of a 14k overly, they take 16k vig.

16% is still pretty good for a midwest tournament. prolly a good value even if they don't sell out.

Just hopped in the car to go play some 3/6 O8 and called in for a place on the list, only to find out the list is an INTEREST list (with me being first on it) as the game broke less than an hour ago. WOW! Has this happened much lately?? Only reason to haul my cookies to MKE is for the O8. May as well play in Hammond...

When a guy says something like this it tell me one thing about him...
that he really has played the 3/6 O8 at the Potawatomi.

Yeah I sit down with a rack of pink and they start complaining about me having pink chips. Now hes going to have to make change blah blah blah. I was only staying till called but those old guys need to learn how to keep games running. Just depressing worse then the old stud game.

Keep the game running? You mean like when a 3rd person walks to bring the number seated down to 7, and they start whining about not liking to play "short-handed"???

FFS, dudes, learn to adjust.

1/2 RxR was going early Thurs morning with 7-9 players, later becoming a soley 1/2 PLO game before dying around 4-5pm. Rake capped at $5. Betting post-flop was rounded to nearest $5.

Meant to say 1/2 RxR was going early TUESDAY morning. Great that rake capped at $5 not $6. Could this catch on? Not much preflop raising when converted to 1/2 PLO. Shouldn't scare newbies to live PLO.

Anyone playing 1-2 during the daytime tomorrow? Instead of the classic "sup bro" I'd like to see raises to $14 as a "Hey I'm a 2+2 poster" secret at the table handshake.

$100,000 Autumn Feast
No-Limit texas HoLd ’em Tournament

Sunday, November 13
$500 Buy-In, $50 Entry Fee,
$30 One-Time Optional Add-On

How to register: Fire Keeper’s Club members can register in person in the Poker Room beginning at 7 a.m. on September 26 through 10 a.m. on
November 12. Registration is first-come, first-served.

Tournament Date and Time:
10 a.m. on Sunday, November 13

How it works: Any player not seated at 10 a.m. will be blinded out until they arrive. To start, each player will receive $7,500 in tournament chips,
and an additional $5,000 in tournament chips if he or she buys the optional add-on. Rounds will be 30 minutes with a 10-minute break after every
four rounds.

Winners: The top 20 places will win cash prizes.
The top prize is $30,250.

So basically same as mid summer classic but this one costs $580 instead of $470.....Really doubt they'll be able to fill it without satellites.

Called 2 days ahead of time on last tourney and they were sold out, they definitely need to change registration so late reg's can get in--there's gotta be space somewhere.

but thats the thing, there is no space. they have 20 tables and that's it. they aren't willing to open tables in other rooms outside the scope of security cameras.

consequently, the overlay tournaments fill up with ease. not sure if this upcoming one will sell out or not but if it doesn't they let you register all the way up until start time.

Anyone know what the hell the story is behind the guy losing his mind (in the Finley jersey) Friday afternoon? Threatened to break a guy's eye socket, then went racial as security was escorting him out.

Attention Potawatomi floor staff, here is how you do it
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Venet...32658470147301

Real-time updates about games being spread...

(One thing I would add is the phone number to get on the list in the About Us section)

Packer game and Brewer game killed the tournament interest yesterday - only 20 players.

A facebook page would be great for the room. I know for a fact I would check it before calling in and asking the floor ten different questions about which games are running, how many tables, interest lists ect.

does 5/10NL ever run? i'm sick of playing 3/5 shortsacked poker with a bunch of dumb nits. i get bored and spew and play bad. well i always play bad, but does it ever run?
does anyone else think the must move is a stupid system? how about the phone at the table rule? how about this room is a terribly run room? any good home games around?

The phone I cant complain because I played when you couldnt have a phone or ipod at all. The only home game I know about now is a 15/30 limit. A few years ago there was some good 5/10 home games but not sure about now.

Anyone call up the Poto lately and see the # of registered people for the November donkament? I have a feeling they wont fill this one because they aren't adding in any money but there was a solid demand down the home stretch for the last tourney so who knows--wouldn't be the first time I was wrong.

Sorry I'm sure this has been answered, but I was thinking of heading here tonight.. how's the action on Thursdays? Should I expect anything other than 1/2 and 3/5?
