yes, we did talk about this before the league started and decided there were enough medals but actually i think you are right.
i'll figure something out !  _________________

how about having a heads up tourny for one of the extra by-in tournys.
gives everyone a chance to play heads up with some different league members. i know i could use some practice at heads up. _________________

yes that's right. we'll need to get things balanced if it's straight knockout (32, 16, 8, etc) and it may be a little early to try a small league but we will try this at some stage !
i think it will probably be a freeroll when it happens (probably ). _________________

Here is one, how about a sponsorship program that helps those having trouble getting funded (usa) (canada) or financially challenged and give as needed for like special tournements that represent our forum specifically. We could base if on skill , or improvment , participation, posting or ones who represent and are most helpful towards others in our league. This way when a special game comes up like OFC they not only get to play the freeroll they also get to participate in the OFC buyin.
thank you

we simply don't have the funds for this gina. right now, everything we have is going back into the tournaments and the forum plus i am wheeling and dealing with poker sites to get sponsorships which is why we have money added prizes pools and special events.
we are still a relatively small forum with big ideas, kicking above our weight and whilst it would be lovely to be able to give sponsorships out to players, it simply isn't feasible for us right now !  _________________

i have been thinking on these two things for a while :
1, a heads up championship.
2, an inter-MLP team competition with 3 a-side (plus 1 sub).
as i said a couple of times, there will not be any new leagues for a bit and for both of the ideas above, we need to make sure that we will have enough numbers to make the games worthwhile.
the concepts are ready to go, i'm just waiting for the right time to try them !  _________________

well.. gina I am poor person... but what has help me is that I have made lots of money on private freerolls from difernt sites and I was able to withdraw the money and put it other sites and some in my pockets... welll what you have to do is find private freeroll that dont have that many players but with a good pay out... thats why I like jungle poker it has lots of those and I was able to fill a good bankroll same with carbon poker i started with a priavte freerollsome money.. I have done that with lots of sites..there is at least 50 private freerolls a day..and i usaullly choose the day before what private freeroll or event im gonna be in.... but since i made bankroll i dont usually go in those freerolls that much but i still do the private buy in tourneys...I really woulndt go for sponsring a person so they can play casue as longs they have internet service there is alot free play out there... but maybe towards a charitbale organzition
what i would do is have a buy in tourney ON this site or at least have a league game with all the buy in going towards this site... with no prize and the only prize would be your rank i the standings... I would at least have one game like that.. that way it would help this site and future games. |

I like the USA vs. The World idea. We've seen it done at the NHL all-star game before so I think trying here would be a great idea. We seem to have a pretty equal number of members from the States and other countries. _________________ "Yeah, Candy Mountain...It's a land of sweets...and joy...and joyness."

How about a challenge tourney against another forum? I know of another forum that challenged the poker.com forum. Sounded like fun and I'm sure it gave the challenging forum some name recognition. _________________

A nice idea but who could we play? If you google poker forums you get over 7 million hits.
There are 2 main types of forum, those run by poker sites and those run by affiliates.
We play against other affiliate forums in the OFC games.
I belong to a few poker site forums but most do not allow US players and I do not think we have enough non US players to challenge a UK site forum.
The only site forum I belong to open to US players is poker.com. |

we would love to do more satellite tuornaments but we're a little restricted by our budget at the moment. i'm sure you'll appreciate that for a forum our size, we have a pretty good amount of tournaments with great added value in the prize money.
as the site grows, we hope to be able to put even more money into our tournaments and i am working hard backstage to get the best possible deals for our members (such as the Poker Nordica games kicking off next month) whilst not constantly asking you to download a million poor poker sites to play at each month (something i've seen on other forums). we really do look for quality over the quantity if at all possible - of course some work and some do not.
so hopefully you'll see a lot of these ideas happen down the line and some maybe even sooner than you think !  _________________

We have the occasional bounty game.
I am not a big fan of them because while luck is factor in any hand, it requires continued skill to win a tourney and so should have the largest reward possible. _________________

Hey adam are you good with myspace? If you wanted to make a myspace page for us it would be so awesome! Let me know if your up for it and I'd be happy to help. You could also put on the myspace page something like make sure to let em know you were referred by adam00 so you get the credit.  _________________

Hmmmm,
first of all why should I play cash-games against a lot of good players. I think it's harder to win some cash against MLP-players than against average-skilled players. And the only reason to play cash-games for me is to win some money.
The MLP-tourneys are fun and I like to play them. The difference to cash-games is that in these tourneys nobody will lose lots of money, in the long run even the players with under-average skills will have some lucky days and break even because of the added cash. So everyone is happy.
And because of the great number of tournaments MLP offers its members there are enough chances for competition.
If we had MLP-cash-games the situation would be different I think and I don't feel happy with the idea that MLP-members could win or lose large amounts of money against each other. A forum like this should be a community of players having fun together and for me cash-games have not much to do with fun.
So even if I would belive that I could beat other forum-members easyly at the cash-tables I wouldn't like to play against them. I still would prefer to play against some strangers and try to take their money.
But that is just my point of view. _________________ Patience is power. |

Hmmmm,
first of all why should I play cash-games against a lot of good players. I think it's harder to win some cash against MLP-players than against average-skilled players. And the only reason to play cash-games for me is to win some money.
The MLP-tourneys are fun and I like to play them. The difference to cash-games is that in these tourneys nobody will lose lots of money, in the long run even the players with under-average skills will have some lucky days and break even because of the added cash. So everyone is happy.
And because of the great number of tournaments MLP offers its members there are enough chances for competition.
If we had MLP-cash-games the situation would be different I think and I don't feel happy with the idea that MLP-members could win or lose large amounts of money against each other. A forum like this should be a community of players having fun together and for me cash-games have not much to do with fun.
So even if I would belive that I could beat other forum-members easyly at the cash-tables I wouldn't like to play against them. I still would prefer to play against some strangers and try to take their money.
But that is just my point of view. |
I agree with Fusspliz, if we introduce cash games it could also introduce resentment and bad feeling if a large amount of cash should change hands, and then we may loose the community spirit and the open helpful post that we all enjoy.
There are plenty of cash games out there and its better to take from a stranger u will enjoy it much more.

It was just an idea.. but i wasnt meaning like alot of money.... maybye like use like a 1 or 2 2 oe 4 cents game. the only reason i suggested because this forum has improve my tournament game so much. I just thought it would help me improve my ring games even more.. everybody on here is so friendly that if we had a low buy in cash game it would be good. so if using money is not good for a private cash game. why not have a private ring game with play money.. _________________ Can you spare a medal?

The cash isn't important as you point out Adam.
Recently before an mlp omaha hi/lo freeroll, harry suggested we met at a regular time on a play money table.
That was fun and a good learning experience. I'm sure with the right mind set, we would benefit from 'play cash' time against each other.
I am sure there are differences in between the cash table and tourney mind set, but as I tend to play tourneys mostly, haven't found any hard and fast rules I can pin down. _________________

There is a novel offer in a poker magazine I buy on a new poker room.
The challenge is to make as much money as possible on June 30th from midnight to midnight, players are not allowed to deposit but will be given 1 euro to play with, if you lose it you are out.
The player with the most cash at midnight wins 1000 euros.
Could we run something like this (not for 1000 euros as that is a bit much for us)? |

interesting idea.
so you're suggesting that everyone sits down at a cash table with 1 euro and plays it win or lose until there is just one left. isn't that basically like a simplified tourney but with just one money winner or did you have something else in mind ? _________________
