Agreed, but spoiler that.^

I wouldn't really begrudge any of the remaining three the victory.

I just tried those new timed tournaments on Stars. They last a set amount of time and then it ends and prize money is shared among remaining players based on stack size.

I played three of them (120mins, 90mins, and 60mins) they were all $5 buy-in and 30mins apart so all three ended at the same time. I cashed in two of them for $25 and $65, not too bad really.

Also, I've noticed now that Stars lets you show one card. It might make things interesting if next time we have a home game we make a rule where the winner always has to show a card.

Yeah. After the comparitable success of the GRSOP this year, I was thinking of starting up a regular cash game evening to help blood in the newbies a bit more. Something like every Sunday evening between the hours of 7pm-9pm for example.

Would anyone be interested? The games/stakes etc can be discussed later once we know whether the interest is there or not.

I would be interested in that.

Yeah I'm game for something. Sundays aren't great for me though.

Maybe clashing with Sunday majors for others too.

But TBF you would only need a 6 max ring filled to make it successful.

I have 2200 FPPS and an urge to spend them. What shall I get?!

I also have 2200fpps and was thinking of using them on satellites on Sunday when the games are extra fishy.

I'll be finishing off the GRSOP PLO video tonight. I just need to record the commentary for it.

I lol'd hard!

Just called two all-ins pre flop with my KK, they both have AK. Ace on the flop and I'm dead. :fp:
