Title: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Colchester Kev on October 24, 2006, 12:42:52 AM SINGAPORE SLING For those of you that havent yet heard (well maybe there is someone I havent told) I am going to play in the Betfair Asian open in singapore 12th-18th November its a $5,000 buy in and an estimated prize pool of $2 million !! I have sold 10% of myself to blonde and I am also donating 5% as well ... so there is 15% of me up for grabs..... This is how we are going to do it. This Friday 27th at 8.30pm we are running a $1 rebuy NLHE with 2 x 15 minute levels of rebuys On top of the usual cash payout, we are adding the following... 1st gets 5% 2nd gets 4% 3rd gets 3% of any return if I cash in the main event 4th gets 2% 5th gets 1% Now I know the chances of me cashing are similar to that of me running the 100 metres in under 10 seconds LOL .... But it would be great if a few blondeites had an interest in the event and a small share of me. So save a couple of $$$ for Friday and lets have some fun Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Newmanseye on October 24, 2006, 12:45:24 AM I'm in for this, ( you better Fu**ing win in singapore kev!!)
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: turny on October 24, 2006, 12:47:21 AM nice one kev :)up
unfortunatly i wont be able to play friday but what a fantastic gesture to donate 5% yourself :respect: then again as you say you got no chance so 5% of nothin is nothin so your not that bloody generous ;) Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: thetank on October 24, 2006, 12:59:13 AM Ye of little faith.
I'll be there, seeing how many rebuys one can squeeze into half an hour. Couldn't really manage more than 20. A bargain for a good shot at 5% of Kev. Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Sheriff Fatman on October 24, 2006, 02:05:55 AM This is great value considering that 5% of Kev is the equivalent of 3-4 average humans (or 20 Snoopys!)
Obviously I say this in full awareness that His Royal Pieness is a waif of a thing compared to yours truly! Sheriff Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: JFKsPOOL on October 24, 2006, 03:04:27 AM good luck in the main event.
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Tonji on October 24, 2006, 08:30:23 AM Great idea Kev, I'll try & make this.
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: kinboshi on October 24, 2006, 08:50:40 AM Sounds like fun, I'm up for that. Nice one Kev.
Which 5% of you are we getting a stake in though? Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Karabiner on October 24, 2006, 09:03:39 AM I'm sure Jermaine Defoe would like a piece of you.
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Graham C on October 24, 2006, 09:34:22 AM I think there's enough of you to go round the whole of Blonde Kev - oh you're talking % of winnings :D

Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Sheriff Fatman on October 27, 2006, 09:04:25 PM Well despite 25 rebuys or so I fell victim to the piece of shit last hand bug on Tribeca, which wouldn't let me rebuy after busting out on that hand.
So 2,000 chips only instead of 6,000 as the freezeout began. Wonderful! Sheriff Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: totalise on October 27, 2006, 09:08:45 PM I had 24 rebuys and had 6k after the break... lasted one hand and went busto to Kev of all people
gl all. Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Sheriff Fatman on October 27, 2006, 09:13:17 PM LOL - I'm sure I've just had a popup appear for this event - 40 minutes after it started!
Or is thiere a 2nd chance tourney? CHIIPS! Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Indestructable on October 27, 2006, 10:40:41 PM Qc Qd

They never listen. Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Colchester Kev on October 28, 2006, 12:02:54 AM Well the Singapore Sling is over ..... And what a fantastic game it was.
Bertpup was the unlucky bubble boy but will get a T-Shirt for his efforts 5th was AndrewT who would have got 1% of my action in Singapore ...BUT after he went out the other guys led by the Bolton Lip himself (Ariston) Decided to chop up the % to 3% each and play for the other 2% ... but then added that if he won he would give Andrew the 2% meaning the top 5 would all get 3% each.The other 3 guys all agreed immediately .... Kudos to all for such great spirit. So after a great comp with over 150 rebuys we have the following result. 5th AndrewT 3% + $14.16 4th Ariston 3% + $17.70 3rd CelticGeeza 3% + $26.55 2nd Happybhoy 3% + $44.25 1st Teacake 3% + $74.34 Thanks to those that took part and I hope I can the bring the winners a few $$$$$ back from Singapore. THANKYOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR SUPPORT. Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Royal Flush on October 28, 2006, 12:20:28 AM What is 3% of nothing?
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: AndrewT on October 28, 2006, 12:28:21 AM Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: ariston on October 28, 2006, 12:29:05 AM What is 3% of a kick in the gonads for trying to spoil his glory? Let him have his moment before he gets knocked out in level one overplaying AK flushy ;)
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: Teacake on October 28, 2006, 10:32:11 AM That was a crackin wee comp, the rebuy period was a laugh & there were so was so much play in the freezeout it was unreal.
Oh & a Scottish top 3 was very nice as well ;nana; Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: CelticGeezeer on October 28, 2006, 11:52:49 AM Top two, well done.
Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: happybhoy on October 28, 2006, 03:15:07 PM Yeah great tourney, madness at times but enjoyable. Well done to everyone.
I was thinking about it earlier and I'm having my first losing year in 4 (down about £500 roughly this year, still up overall) although I put that down to learning to playing live but it'll be fun to have a wee lottery ticket that could potentially pay off. Good luck in Singapore Kev. :)up Title: Re: You Wanna piece of me ?? Post by: ariston on October 28, 2006, 05:34:39 PM Agree with what everyone else has said- Gl in sigapore kev and I am glad we all took 3% each of you so we all have a nice chunk if you do manage to chit the deck over there.
