Poker Tournament
 

Saturday, 5:00PM EST, 9:00PM UTC

Introduction:
This will be a poker tournament which will be conducted of several rounds depending on how many people turn up, each round will be 3 players + the dealer(myself). The rules will be a simplified adaptation of Texas Hold Em.

Explanation:
Each round will consist of 3 players all battling with each other to move onto the next round. Each player will need 100 platinum to use as "chips". The minimum bet will be 5 and the max will 25. "All in" will only become available after when the 4th hand of the round has been dealt. The winner will be either:
A) The person who obtains all other chips, or
B) Has the most chips by the end of round 6.

In the final round the chip budget will increase to 200 and the round end limit will be raised to 10.

Rules:
- Each player will be dealt 2 cards, faced down.
- The betting begins with the person left of the dealer. They can place a bet or fold. The betting then proceeds around the table clockwise. You will be given the chance to raise, call or fold.
- When everyone has done their action 3 cards will be dealt face up onto the center of the table. These cards can (and will) be used by everyone in combination with their own two cards to make the best hand.
- Another round of betting begins with the player to the dealers left.
- A 4th card is placed face up on the center of the table.
- Another round of betting
- The 5th and final card is placed in the center of the table.
- One final round of betting before the remaining players will show their cards and the player with the best hand will win all the chips for that round.

Prizes:
Prizes will be announced on the day. There will be a prize for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. I can assure you that the grand prize will be worth it.

poker <3

Can't wait.

I want to play but no 100 platinum coins D=

edit: kidding, had a starter pack still hanging in inventory containing 100 platinum coins, the time fits, is it a problem my account is no longer gold?

Texas Hold 'em!

Would be cool to be there and clean house, but i can't discuss bans :rolleyes:

Not at all.

That's such a shame. I would ask how and why but.. we cannot discuss..

Good thing PM's are here :fro:

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time!

we need to get a graal team to collude together on a FullTilt table. we could be rich....

That would be awesome!

Anyone willing to give me 100 platinum? If I win, I'll give my prizes to you, since I don't play GK.

I'll give you 100 platinum if you really want. You could probably get it yourself easily.

Making a business proposition with any new player who doesn't have 100 platinum coins, i'll give you 100 platinum coins for 51% of the prize received. It's a risky bet on my part, only three people will get prizes.

Cool Event
