hello boys and girls,

im setting up a midstakes team competition that will last for three weeks in january and i want you, yes YOU, to be a part of it. the contest will last three weeks and will run from january 1st - january 23rd (this actually covers 4 sundays). im making this thread today because with christmas and new years, a lot of posters might not be on p5s towards the end of the month so i figured id get the ball rolling now and see who is interested.

Buyin: $250 (might be 260 if we have to pay $10 to a scorekeeper, id like p5s to run this contest and will contact n82 - im not sure he charges). Payouts will be determined once we know how many teams there are but odds are its winner take all unless there are more than 10-15 teams

Freezeouts: up to $109
Rebuys: up to $20r
Cubed and quads: up to $20. ie the 5 quad counts, the 20c counts, the $5r 25a/o counts, the 30 quad doesnt
2x chance: the $55 2x and $109 2x WILL NOT COUNT because the scoring system cant currently do that. i believe the only other 2x chance tourney that would count is the $8 one

sites: FTP/PS/UB/AP

Scoring breakdown: Teams of 4. Minimum of 10 scores per player, maximum of 17 scores per player. top 60 scores per team count.
-------------------------------------

before the inevitable influx of people saying "omg if we do $109fos, why not the $129ko? why not $163s? why not 30rs?"...do me a favor and stfu. these stakes are non negotiable. we are going to get more people if we max it out at these stakes than if we include 163s, 30rs etc

this will be a team contest ran in the form of a snake draft. the draft is tentatively set for wednesday 12/29 at 8pm est but can be pushed back until the 30th if necessary.

we need captains to step up so please volunteer yourself if you want to have control over who is on your team and not be stuck with a bunch of withered players.

oh and lastly, please dont sign up for this contest if youre not planning on putting in at least some volume. every contest has a handful of guys who just end up deciding they dont really feel like playing that much. when you do this you not only pretty much guarantee you wont win money, but youre screwing over your teammates. dont be this contest's joey baggadouche

the buyin and stakes are pretty much locked down, so if you want to participate and know youre 100% in you can send me the money whenever you want.

Hi, im joey bagadouche and id like to join.

i plan on getting tons of 9ths, drooping huds on fools on the reg and generally being the life of the party.

pm me for details.

in, im against the 163s but you need to include 1ks and any live tourneys

omg if we do $109fos, why not the $129ko? why not $163s? why not 30rs?

Do you have to be a big winning player to be included, or will I just be one of the last ones picked? I've been playing more lately but don't have any big scores to my credit yet. I feel like something like this will motivate me to player more, drink less, and try and play well more consistently if I have others affected by my results.

you can join if you put up the money. im sure nobody is against having more people enter the comp. the thing is though are you rolled to be able to play all of these tournaments? will you be playing all the 109's and the 55's and 20r's without a problem of being rolled for them? im not passing judgement on what your roll is or isnt, but these are just a few things to consider. because most of the people that enter this comp will be playing ALL of the highest buy ins allowed for this comp.

i want to do this but i have dreams of becoming a withered live pro and the borgata winter open is calling me...

yarks

Would be more interested if the buy-in was in the $1k range, I feel like I killed myself during the last midstakes comp for a whopping $100. But in all likelihood I will prob play live during this and won't make a great teammate.

disagree, id venture to say that most of the people who are going to be at pca arent going to be super concerned about joining a contest whos highest stakes are a $100 freezeout

I am pretty sure that is per person Perfect. I am very torn on playing this.... Someone talk me into it! :P

In will ship tomorrow

im interested. i will not be playing the first sunday however

in and 250 sent on PS,from shumeilove
