god overall worst ****ing 9k hands of my life

2k hands more TC!!

Rake is f*cking ridiculous for challenges like that even at midstakes even at heads-up even at site with lowest rake cap ($0.50). $1200 aka 3 buy-ins for 8,500 hands or few nights challenge with a friend. Imagine if you want to play some first person shooter game over internet with a friend and have to play $1200 for few nights play, ridiculous.

Yeah, ****ing ridicilous. We're getting hustled

HH's from latest session btw?

gary, do u have the hand where we chopped on JT2J2? i had J9 and u had J8 i believe. i cant seem to find it in my db...hmmm

+1

oh and also thanks to TC/gary haven't gotten to rail at all but fun to read updates/HHs

Yeah Thanks TC/Gary for playing this. Nice to read the updates and HHs. Some pretty novel hands there.

fyp

Maybe these challenges should be played with play money with each player putting like 20 BI's in escrow?

Given the rake, yeah, this should be seriously considered. Or ask FT to provide help with such matches.

Genious

wtf and no hud?
hmmm

Hud's don't work for play money? Fine, just play micro stakes with the escrow.

excellent idea

lol damn good idea

Perfect idea if HUD works IMO

2nl ftw imo (or 4nl to keep the relative sizes of 400nl )

lol u guys realize zachvac suggested that exact thing when we ran the very first 200nl tournament right

actually a brilliant idea for any reg match over 1k hands - just play at play money tbls or micro and escrow pays up after match and returns whats left (both xfer 10bi or so beforehand). these escrows should get a % tho, since there would be lots of transfering.

imagine if at least part of the regs played each other like this - I know i would save like 2k a month lol

Maybe we need an escrow thread, where one provides escrows and arbitration, site transfers for a reasonable fee?
