View Full Version : Practice Game 2: 2/16 10PM EST
The Eye in the Sky!
February 15th, 2006, 07:50 PM
Hey everyone, I'm hosting the second practice table tomorrow night at 10 PM EST and it is open for anyone on the play server right now. It will not count for points or rankings but I will be using them to form the Las Vegas Odds for this series. So, you can just tell me if you are coming, or show up. It is really an official-unofficial table, so I will be letting people in on a first come-first serve basis. If one of my co-mods are there and willing to host another table, then that is their decision. I will be holding the rules as if it were a real game, though:
- Everyone sits in with 1000 in chips.
- If you are eliminated DO NOT SIT IN WITH MORE CHIPS. If you do, you will be booted and kicked out of the GWPS.
- We will use the disconnect rule so everything is fair for everyone.
- The reserved seats are still intacted and if you take a host's seat before they can get there, you will be booted.
- Bad behavior in general (throwing the game, unneccassary flaming, and being a total annoyance) will not be tolerated.
Other than that, be there or be... uh... not there!

i might not, i have a test that night. hopefully i make it
wouldn't it be an unofficial-official table? it follows all the official rules but it won't be counted. if it was an official-unofficial table all it is saying is that it is officially unofficial

Official-unofficial. It is unofficial, but it is sanctioned by the GWPS and uses it's rules. Officially unofficial.

I have something to do to around 9:30 CST. So I guess I'm not in unless someone starts a second game later.

Just to remind everyone, the table opens at 9PM.

I think I will stop in.
I will be studying bio-organic chemistry at the same time though, so this may be your only chance to defeat me.

Only if it's the only game you make it to. :P

I have a whole lot of homework to do, and three hours left til 10 PM EST. If I can't get it done by then, I can't play, obviously.
If I do, I request to play at Cole's table. :D

I request that I play at AP while everyone else plays at CnR. :D

You are going to play with yourself?
Pumpkin Escobar
February 16th, 2006, 07:52 PM
We all have to accept that sometimes, there's nothing we can do other than play with strangers. I don't like it, but it's something that cannot be avoided.
EDIT-- I can't make it to the game tonight.

I request that I play at AP while everyone else plays at CnR. :DI'll play with you. CnR screwed me over ALOT today.

If someone can find a better program with private tables for play money, I'm all ears.

No, I like Check n Raise.
BTW, finished up my homework. My five page report on Ivan the Terrible has been completed up to where it should be for now, and my friend sent me the answers for my Social Studies. I didn't even ask, I'm just that awesome. :D
So, I should definately be playing, unless my computer dies...I die...or my dad comes home piss drunk and gets on the cpu.

My table is now up, and will be first come first serve until Tom gets here (if Tom gets here) or if/when Brian gets here.
Private - Medium - zCole.
All reserved seats are in effect since I don't know which of them are playing. First come first serve. Watchers are instructed not to sit. Obey all rules, blah blah blah.
For you new people, remember to say you're from GW or I won't let you in.
[EDIT] Tom has arrived, and has opened up another table. DO NOT GO TO IT. Just come to mine. If we get more than 10 people, we'll split them up.

I'm just getting all the 'lose' out of my system. I'll be ready for action by the first game of the series.
[Insert random "BTS sucks" post]
Anyway, good game everyone, and congrats to whoever wins the tables tonight.

My plan sorta worked. Get shorstacked so my poker skills kick in, which they did.
Then, I think domething possesed me so kut could kill me.

i knew once it got down to me and tom that i would lose unless i had a kickass hand and he only had a kick the baby hand. it didn't help that he stole almost all my money before it with his trips that he slow played vs. my 2 pair :shrug:
even if i was still big stacked i think tom would have beat me, it just would have taken a couple more minutes :)

Heads up is really my strength... that and valuing cards preflop. It was so easy to win that trips hand because you bet right into me and called my raises. Nothing wrong with your play, I just had the 7.

joe was still there, until the river the largest thing i called was 100 or 150 preflop when i had AQ so it wasn't a bad preflop call

Focused on playing rather than how much CnR sucks. I didn't get impatient, either.

I've figured out what happened. When I called Eye one hand, our souls switched.

I'm pretty glad with this game.
Cluck cracked me up... coming back from the short stack.
Good game.
