the tourney was great,,, unfortunately i did not have my eyes on the money...even played a bit different then i usualy do...
in early stages i even did not want to knock out some players,,,and placed some softbets..on river. my softspot....other brmobbers. so not a killer instinct in that game for me...
although,, i ran very well ,but with 13 players left i made a bad move..went all in with A-J to steal a pot in early position...was dealth 4 times K-K and 5 times A-A ,,could not believe my eyes..
anyway , i fucked up in the last minutes before final table....but had lots of fun. it was very nice to play all against those reg. brm'érs...
exept one guy who cursed on my mother ,who already passed away 20 years ago... that unpolite lithuanian guy...forgot his name...
so he got totaly mad ,,,for losing a hand against me...that was the only negative thing during whole tourney..
ps. if you can arrange some higher buy-inn tourneys on our homegame pohui,,, i will play them every evening ,
let's say from 0.50 to 3$ would be very nice...not only rebuy tourneys.. i think this will attract other mobmembers to attend in the homegames a lot more...
0.11ct is nice if ur broke,,but it's no challenge if one plays micro limits or higher at stars.. and we will not see and play our best poker ,with such low buy-inns.
manpohui i know we all loved it,,sad we have to wait another 12 months,so hope you arrange some nice tourneys in homegame and we can all play against eachother more often,,,
would aslo give us more material to disguss over here,, hands ,gameplay...strategy.. and you never know ,,even new projects ,we can attend together. (i do not mean collusion or cheating)
that's it... merry christmas to all of you and may all your monsters be winners...exept for the lithuanian wanker, he should lose more hands and quit poker asap.

to be honest- not a lot of people play anything else than $0.11- we have $1.10 tourneys running twice a week (plo & nlhe) but lately they had 0 players registered...so it's safe to say higher buy-ins do not attract more players....then we tried to make it a tradition to have a monthly $5.50 game- but same problem here- no players, or 2-3 max...
actually i think maybe we should try a donkfest type tourney $0.11 buy-in with unlimited rebuys: this will inflate the prize-pool quite a bit & be fun and relaxed for the rebuy period, then the real game would kick off....dunno- maybe this would work...
p.s. glad you had a great time, bad luck with finishing 13th...still was nice to see you in the tourney. merry xmas

Most fun i had in a long time playing poker. Was a nice change from the usual F.U. and all that crap one gets used to read on the chat. There's always the exception as uhhcallmi says. Would be hard not to find an ass between 42 players lol.
Anyway, overall very nice tourney. Great stuff to play against regs so just for that it deserves

eeh ,that's quick pohui..
the thing is i'm also member of another homegameclub ,,and there we run 2 sorts of tournaments daily.. a 1$ freezout and a 5$ freezout. + a few cashtables nlh and plo
but it would be very nice if the rigged place would have more different tourneys, if possible.
like a knockout, 4max or 6max table tourney...sng..with different buy-inns.
To be honest, if i have to lose money,, i'dd rather lose it to other BRM members then to the total strangers i meet every day from all over the world.
at least i'd know where my money goes and it would hurt less.
it's just an idea...hope you will fix some for us.

Wow what a horrid idea mate. I think your organizational skills and the fact you have proven time and again that mobsters can trust you is what made our Xmas game as good as it was. The idea that you would give the rains to someone else is disheartening. Please take a few days to reconsider and rethink things over. Everyone else stop your damned complaining.

We are also glad that you enjoyed the game. I would love to see a game for New Years Eve as well. What you all think about a New Years Eve game? I know its is not much time to plan but hey we could do it.
There could even be another bounty placed on my head.

Posted by pinku135: That was a great game
Thanks pochui for organizing a great game And Thank you Ronin for the stake
I crapped out at 19th !! Huh i played bad and few sick calls took me out !! Anyways a game to remember Gl to all remaining players
Merry Christmas
You did better than i did mate. congrates to you for that. What a difference a day can make. Yesterday i was crushing the rounder tables and even placed on several final tables. today it seems nothing is going my way. i mean i even lost after flopping quads to a higher quad. All i can say is owch dang it.
One day you will be crushing every single opponent but you cant expect it all times , you can expect it only if you put same amount of effort as you did on the first day !!!
That quad thing hurts a lot !!! I know how it feels !!

actually i do not give my reins...simply any home game club can have a club manager (that's me at the moment) & many admins (that's anyone who wants to put the effort in to help the club to grow) if there are any brm'ers who have some spare time & will to help this club grow/organize new exciting tourneys- i will happily make them club admins...

it's doable (29 or 30th- sat/sun could be the date). depends only from the donors...BRM has given a huge base to start from regarding the Christmas tourney, without anything similar for "New Year's Tourney" it will be a lot harder to make the prize-pool look attractive enough imo...
we can give it a shot though...

Posted by xdomagojx: 0.11 buy-in is good once a year, but you should register for 1.10 so we can play decent game every week. So little people interested.
yeah very little interest for anything bigger than $0.11

I finished 5th but i was very happy with the results and the way the tourney went, there were some players doing extremely good moves and things were taugh. We were only 37 but it took more than 4 hours to find the winner of the event. I'm very glad i made to the final table and i guess i could have gone further than the 5th, i was in last and that pocket 77's made my head blow, had to go all-in, and grucas, after thinking a bit, didn't have any problem in calling me with his pocket 99's. The table magic was logged off at that moment and he fairly won, sending me away. I loved it, and the prizes were awesome, i'm already spending mine at the tables in this moment, thanks a lot
I think that it would be at 22, not 21
