Title: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 20, 2006, 05:39:26 PM Starting on SUNDAY DECEMBER 3rd at 8.30pm and every SUNDAY at 8.30pm there after blonde are proud to announce the SUNDAY SIZZLER. a $50 freezeout with 30 minute blind levels.
everyone will have a chance to gain entry through $5 sats which are going to run nightly at the following times. (starting on Monday 27th November) Mon 8.00pm Tues 8.30pm Wed 7.30pm Thurs 9.00pm Fri 10.00pm Sat 10.00pm Times that will hopefully suit everyone on one of the days. Of course you could always buy in directly if you dont win a seat. I aim to take advantage of the fact that some blondeites will be at the APAT event in Newcastle by winning the first SUNDAY SIZZLER ..... unless you think you can stop me ;) Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Rooky9 on November 20, 2006, 05:44:48 PM Are the sats rebuys? If you win one seat can you play another sat and get the cash alternative?
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 20, 2006, 05:47:40 PM The sats are FREEZEOUTS. And yes you can take a cash alternative if you win more than 1 seat.
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Rooky9 on November 20, 2006, 05:51:49 PM I would be more tempted in by a rebuy sat or a freezeout and add on or, a mix of sats across the week? (i need better odds than 1 in 11 to qualify sadly)
I can't play in the first weeks but will give the second one a crack! Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp.

Good point, perhaps I could make one of the sats a rebuy .... leave it with me and I will see what i can do ... Thursday looks Fav. for a rebuy sat. Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp.

Thursdays could go on a bit long if it gets a bit hot. How about a poll! Stop disturbing me anyway, i am trying to revise! Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Poppet7 on November 20, 2006, 06:23:54 PM Sounds good.

Post by: kinboshi on November 20, 2006, 10:02:13 PM Excellent - 30 minute levels, very nice. What are the starting stacks - 2,000?
Can't make the Newcastle event, so this will have to make up for it. Looks like a decent substitute. Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 21, 2006, 11:51:56 AM Forgot to add ...... blonde will guarantee 1 seat in every sat. so if only 9 start in any given sat, a seat will still be up for grabs.
Still looking for some feedback on whether peeps would like one of the sats to be a rebuy ? Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Bainn on November 21, 2006, 02:12:09 PM Typical, starts an interesting new comp when the better players are away at the APAt event.
Roll on the 10th of December ! Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp.

Still looking for some feedback on whether peeps would like one of the sats to be a rebuy ? Yeah, I think at least one rebuy satellite would be good Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Indestructable on November 21, 2006, 05:27:52 PM Sounds good, can't make the first one as in Paris for the weekend. Good luck to everyone entering.
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: KeithyB on November 21, 2006, 08:06:36 PM Good to see something like this on a weekend rather than weekday. Well done Kev.
As for the satellites, I personally don't like rebuy ones and wouldn't play that format. But changing one or two from freezeout to rebuy doesn't seem unreasonable if the demand is there?

Post by: RED-DOG on November 22, 2006, 09:47:42 AM 30 minute blind leves? Wow!!!
We're not worthy ;kneelsucker; Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Sheriff Fatman on November 22, 2006, 10:20:26 AM Excellent, even Tighty will have time to find a hand with that structure!
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 22, 2006, 10:24:06 AM Excellent, even Tighty will have time to find a hand with that structure! Tighty would struggle with 30 day levels ;) Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Sheriff Fatman on November 22, 2006, 10:36:32 AM He's loosened up recently though. He plays Aces AND KINGS nowadays!

I like Queens, always have done. Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: kinboshi on November 22, 2006, 02:23:27 PM GFYourselves I like Queens, always have done. Is that why you were hanging round the ladies loos? Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: TightEnd on November 22, 2006, 02:25:24 PM Secret's out
Last night in a comp I even played a pair of eights Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp.

(are you really as tight as people make out?) Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Sheriff Fatman on November 22, 2006, 03:17:17 PM To clarify, Tighty's definition of 'played' includes a making a slight 'Holllywood' dwell followed by the usual fold.

Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Sheriff Fatman on November 22, 2006, 04:48:40 PM (are you really as tight as people make out?) The recent stick came about as a result of this post (http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=16432.msg340348#msg340348), which has resulted in a few good-natured wind-ups. I don't think he minds really, as he'll be able to steal his way to victory in the next BPL event because no-one will ever call him! Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: snoopy1239 on November 23, 2006, 11:17:48 PM 30 minute blind levels sounds cool, at least it won't be a crapshoot that way.
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: TightEnd on November 24, 2006, 03:13:31 AM (are you really as tight as people make out?) no. I murdered 8000 chips in one level and one hand with blinds at 25-50 tonight. Merely crap then. Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp.

What happened? Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: TightEnd on November 24, 2006, 03:19:27 AM I don't have enough 50p pieces available for the past 24 hours to describe it, or do it justice.
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: snoopy1239 on November 24, 2006, 03:21:57 AM I'm an pro updater, if I ask for a poker story I'll get it. Somehow and by whatever means I'll prise it out of you, it's my job goddamit! :)
Now tell me what happened to you tonight, and remember, I am numb to bad beats so I won't mind. Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: TightEnd on November 24, 2006, 03:31:13 AM five overpairs spanked by underpairs or a rag Ace (thanks Sofa King, grrrrr) etc...cash, satellites, comps, money went all in with me well ahead.
and then the set against set did for me once and for all :D Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: snoopy1239 on November 24, 2006, 03:32:21 AM Was it set v set that did your 8k today?
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: TightEnd on November 24, 2006, 03:37:43 AM most of it, then took AK vs QQ, hit the Ace and lost
Not my night, one of those things Folding is much easier, and seems to gurantee a top 70 finish in most fields! Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Graham C on November 24, 2006, 08:31:18 PM Is there a feeder tonight? I can't see one in the lobby
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 24, 2006, 08:42:56 PM Starts monday, first Sunday Sizzler is on the 3rd Dec.

It says 8pm in the news box in the top right corner, but it's 8.30pm start according to this thread - and more importantly on the poker room itself. Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 28, 2006, 07:34:55 PM It says 8.30 on page one of this thread ....
Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: kinboshi on November 28, 2006, 07:35:58 PM It says 8.30 on page one of this thread .... That's what I said... Title: Re: bpl ... A new weekly comp. Post by: Colchester Kev on November 28, 2006, 07:43:37 PM so the only logical conclusion ......
Tighty fked up in the news box :) |
