oz poker tour-is this a dumb as i think it is?

Mate I'd almost say completely guarenteed if you can jag a top 7-8 finish as when I've been there, there's never been more then 13 runners.

I didnt go last week, but the structure hasnt changed so I would assume it would be a similar field.

Very friendly bunch there and Ahmed the TD is a decent bloke.

If it wasn't for the ME entry I think the numbers would have been somewhere approaching zero. Promotion FAIL.

Borgorg,

Would you be the tall slender guy with blonde hair and glasses?

Yeah but no good to introduce the "Passport" when we were all getting tickets.

That's me - the TD thought I was a noob and gave me a passport. No biggie.

BTW I for one think the $10 rebuy drunkament (2000 or less chips per rebuy) is pointless even for a pub poker structure. Nobody likes it and I have no idea who in the equation keeps pushing for it's existence.

Yeah thought that was you. I have seen you several places playing. LOL @ getting your 6 stamps to get into the regionals. See you at the ME. GL

I agree with you on the "Rebuy" situation, I dont think there is a place in any pub or club for rebuys, well unlimited at least. I dont mind a 1 or 2 rebuy tourny.

Yesterday OPTs new event at royal oak had 1 table (ended up being ten players after a few knockouts)

surprise surprise.

being the convicted felon that i am and cannot drive till august i got a few friends to get me a lift there. They play poker, they were there in the carpark, they were bored and i STILL couldnt get them into play the event.
