Has anyone seen anything written about a $10 million buy-in tournament to be held in vegas soon. Only 6 seats are available and Phil Ivey has his name down now. Sorry if there has already been a post on this topic, but I couldn't sleep and was reading the latest Inside Edge magazine. I would love to be able to have the financial resources to put my name down as well but that damm Euro Millions must be fixed. I never seem to win. Only joking, if I did win It would be a flat in Monaco followed by a nice rolex which would be top of the list.

Anyone interested in playing a satellite to a satellite to a satellite to a satellite to a satellite to a satellite to this one? Only $100.

If that's to rich for you we might be able to sort out a satellite to the satellite to the satellite to the satellite to the satellite to the satellite to the satellite to get a seat for just $10.

Funny enough im going to have a word with my sponsors and see if they will pay for it .... if not i will sack the bank manager lol

Good one SKIPPYSKIP...

$10,000,000 are they having a laugh no doubt who ever plays in this the money wont come out of there pocket, think there will be firms queing up to sponsor the top players

As far as I can tell. There is only a prize for 1st place....$60,000,000.....it is to be held on 12th of July 2006.

Anyone with the latest edition of Inside Edge - Page 72. Or just hang around W.H Smiths' and read their copy.

 

Poker News published a brief article on this last month, you can find it here (http://www.pokernews.com/news/2005/12/poker-ten-million-tournament.htm).

Oh well...I'm withdrawing my entry if that's all I can win..

PMSL

would it not make more sense for them pool the money and put it in a high savings bank account?

LOL     Doesnt really make for good T.V though

Would that not be true of all poker tournaments?

Let's all give up the game and live off the interest.

BigArmo and I have combined our pokerstars bankrolls and are looking to enter - we have enough for one seat so far. We are hoping by the time they hold the tournament to have two seats secured! This would save on arguements on who plays the seat if we only have enough to pay for one seat

Watch this space...........

That's dollars, not bananas you realise?

rotflmfao rotflmfao rotflmfao

he meant into the sat to the sat to the sat to the sat to the sat ............ for 10$

You think if i had 10 million bananas i'd gamble with them?!?!?! banana are soft and squidgy and yummy, dollars are just a worthless bit of paper - please give me a little credit, i may be a monkey but i'm not stooopid!! :)

Bananas make great smoothies. Have you ever tried a paper smoothie? It's not very smooth.

i think you'll find this tourney is austrialian dollars. which isn't all that much really. like. 2.5 million pounds or something?
and the wooooorld champion will be attending as well as phil ivey i believe. as it's being held down under also. well thats what i saw anyway if it's changed then whatever but it's still rather hard to believe.

Pah, you're right. Mere pocket change.

I think you will find that 4,25 million pound is about 10mil Aussie

Ah bugger, now I can't buy-in.

Never mind tank.

 Maybe you can buy in to the 250,000 pound satellite instead... rotflmfao

Well what I find funny about this is there will be a parade preceeding this tourney, lots of banners of the orange variety and plety of sticks thrown in the air all to the tune of a few drums and some flutes.

Probably kicks off in the glasgow area.

I bet Greenstein plays it. Pocket change to him.

Phil Gordon as well. Although he will be dead money at the table ;)

If we all scraped our money together and got out a huge loan we could have enough for one seat and we can nominate who we want to play for Blonde!  8)

;D ;D ;D ;D

True but Greenstein is quality.

It takes some manner of man/woooooman to play this kinda game.

Who would play this properly and not just sit really tight until there were 5 players left and say...

"Let's make a deal"

Me! I'd fight til the end ;)

Ok, so every registered member of blonde is to come up with £2k by July and we'll pop it on poppet in this thing.

Who's up for that?

Well clearly they're all going to say 'NOT ME!!' Poppet isn't good enough JUST yet ;)

I'd vote for Poppet ;D ;D ;D

Wahey  8)

Poppet 1
Other Blondeites 0

If we were sponsoring someone, Brian Wilson would have my vote.

 :o and why would that be?! It's not like he has won any big poker tourneys is it ;)

Do you feel a poll coming on Nemesis?
Remember to include Colchester Kev :D

FIX!!!

yeahyeahyeahyeahyeah!

Poppet'll win...obviously!  8)

I vote JP, oh wait he isnt old enough. We need someone old then, but still young...ish. Who on here is old and youngish?

Shhhhhhh, shut up about age!! Not that it matters, cos, I'm...errr....23 :)

I'll have to think about it

OK I'll do it
