I have set up a private Poker Tournament for ASF members.

Please use your ASF name when setting up your player registration.

Every Tuesday at 8pm AEST

Every Wednesday at 8pm AEST

Tournament name: “Aussie Stock Forums”

I believe Full Tilt Poker has the best platform, and most secure, so those who don’t have an account can get one here:

http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/download.php

Once you have downloaded the software and set up an account,

Go to: Tournaments / Private, then scroll down to $5 + 50c

Our tournament starts at 20.00 every Tuesday and Wednesday evening.

It is No Limit Texas Holdem. Tables of 9, and maximum of 900 players.

You will need the password to access the tournaments.

Please PM me to obtain the password and keep it secure.

I have already registered for both tournaments, so you will see my name there.

Pretty excited about the kick off tomorrow night at 8pm (7pm Brisbane)

Hope to see you there, cheers Gundini… :)
 
Really cool idea Gundini!

Althought i have no intention of playing i would be really interested in reading about the result etc.

(I know if i got started i would never have time again for systems and trading :D)

Good luck to all participants, looking forward to hearing the stories.

It's going to be good mate, it is a hassle I know, but once you are set you are good to go!

I'm not competing with Poker Stars, have no problem with them!

Just looking forward to tomorrow nights game....;)

I'm all in!
 
My apologies to those who joined our private game, but they have put our game on at 2000 ET (US time) which is not 8pm tonight for us. I have emailed them, but as it is about 3am in the morning over there they may not change the game in time.

I see all but Lombardy74 has unregister from this one. Hopefully all is good for tomorrow nights game.

Sorry, I thought it was all ready to go.

Cheers Gundini :eek:
 
When I start the installer for the full tilt client software it say's the certificate publisher could not be verified - anyone else getting this - I'm a bit wary of any of this sort of stuff with anything involving personal details and money.
 
hey jersey,
keep us posted on the details, and I will play at poker stars next week......
wont be playing on full tilt....
peace...
:cool:

I think it would be better if we weren't playing for money :p: I just bought a new monitor, I don't want to lose more!

Well I've just registered for full tilt but not pokerstars yet - have you got anything in particular against full tilt shrewd crude or are you just not wanting to sign up to multiple sites when your already on poker stars?

Yes, I agree....

You do have to make a minimum deposit of $50USD on Full Tilt, but no biggie for me, and it's only $5.50 per game, not a ball breaker and does make it a good bit of fun!

Maybe we set up both, a free and a money one!

I find money games are more skillful as players don't want to give away their hard earned to easily.

Free games can get silly early. A 90 player tourney can be down to 30 remaining in 5 minutes, where as a money game will still have 80 left. :cool:

I have nothing against full tilt...
I do have a full tilt account but dont play for money there...
only play in the NZ freerolls and a few other freerolls on that site.....
I dont like the cash games on that site, ie the Omaha not so popular so theres no point in me putting money on...
Its a hassle for me to put money online because I dont have a credit card, so have to ask friends etc etc...

so I will wait for the PS tornys, would love to play against all you's...
:cool:

Well, although $50USD is hardly anything to be concerned about, I just know that I'd prefer to spend it elsewhere :p: Surely a $5 game could get very silly though, as well? I mean, who cares if someone goes 50c preflop? It's 50c!
 
hey hey hey...
cant make it tomorrow nite... got to take a chick out...
UMMM.... maybe I could pull out and tell her 'its business'...
heheheehe....
...
I didnt actually see the details for the PS torny...
so kep me posted next week and I will come...
peace

i don't use a credit card i use a mastercard debit card linked to my savings account, i think most banks can now organise these cards with your savings account not requiring you to use a credit account

It doesn't work like that...

When you enter for $5.50, $5 goes to the pool. 50c goes to Full Tilt, and you start the game with $1500, everyone does.

So you may win the tourney with a balance of say $30,000 in a 20 player game, but your actual winnings may be only say $48, being a % of the prize pool. In this instance, they may pay 3 or 4 places.
