We have a HORSE game starting in 10Are there any more hold em tonight? Im in if so
I have you not paying - if I missed it let me know. I'll subtract $20 from your payout if you didn't pay.Yeah. Nice job. We both had the best hand lose a couple times with all ins. I was ready for it to end. Literally had a monkey (my 4yo) on my back for last 10 mins, trying to get me to play.
Yep. $1500 each. I sent you the payment for all.Late Night HORSE

It was $1500 each, correct?
Done. The 9:00PM ET tournament will now run at 8:30PM ET each night. I kept the blind intervals at 5 minutes, but increased the starting chips from 3k to 5k. Let me know if anyone has any objections to this or any further suggestions. I cancelled the 2nd scheduled recurring NLH tournament since we have an Omaha game, but we can always create one on the fly if there are a bunch of folks wanting a 2nd NLH game.@UniAlias Hey, can you move the NL tourney up permanently 30 minutes to 8:30pm ET? We've had good turn outs for the PLO8 at 10pm ET, and I've set that up to run at that time each night. Don't want them to overlap. Thanks

When we have a good turnout for the early tournament, it goes really close to 1.5 hours as it is. I think almost doubling the chips will make the games overlap, which is tough.Done.

Maybe slow down the blindsWhen we have a good turnout for the early tournament, it goes really close to 1.5 hours as it is. I think almost doubling the chips will make the games overlap, which is tough.
My vote would be to keep things the same in the early game. But, I'm willing to try it to see how it goes.
I considered this as well, but they're currently set to 5 minutes, and the next interval would be 10 minutes. I think that would have a larger time impact than the 3k->5k starting chip stack.Maybe slow down the blinds
There is some support for a pricier game. I know @Getzlaf15, @The Scorpion, and I would all play for $50. Maybe we carve out a game once a week with higher limits?I would rather play for say 50 bucks and have longer blind levels and more starting chips. But whatever.

I think we should designate one day where both tourneys are $40 entry fees. JMO. We did the PLO8 with 10,000 starting chips last night to try it. We had 13 entries. When we got to the final table, I asked all about the 10k chip start and everyone really liked it. That tournament last two hours. You could make a mistake/get bad beat and not feel like you were immediately in all-in mode.There is some support for a pricier game. I know @Getzlaf15, @The Scorpion, and I would all play for $50.

Too early. 9pm EST works better.Game in 20 minutes! New time - 8:30 PM EST
I actually think that will be a popular opinion but I’m already on and ready for 830 tonightToo early. 9pm EST works better.
lol yep, I just went to check the 9 PM game. Oh wellToo early. 9pm EST works better.
you're 2 minutes late for the old timeAll the random time changes are making it really easy to plan for these.
Like a well oiled machine....
Had to adjust it so the 4 guys who like Omaha can get the game started earlier.All the random time changes are making it really easy to plan for these.

had 13 last night. played at same time as tonight. Moved the NL because started with 5k chips, not 3. Will last longerHad to adjust it so the 4 guys who like Omaha can get the game started earlier.
Mary wouldn't do that to us.I'd really like to establish a rule where we pay BEFORE the game starts. It makes it much easier to pay out when everyone pays, and then the winners get paid out. It just complicates things when I have to take entry fees out of winnings. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but I have a fancy schmancy spreadsheet set up for payouts, and it's just much easier to track things when everyone pays.
So, sign up for the tournament, and pay the banker. Make it a two step process. Your banker will thank you.
Completely agree. I think part of the problem is the folks that join in the late reg period. They're focused on playing right away.I'd really like to establish a rule where we pay BEFORE the game starts.

I agree that’s part of it. But it takes like 10 seconds to PayPal money.Completely agree. I think part of the problem is the folks that join in the late reg period. They're focused on playing right away.
How does that even happen?In the first 37 hands, I've flopped a set of 9's five times.
Last night with more starting chips was better.Rating of FBG poker so far, 1-10?
