Heads up

[Dingdell]

This might already be happening so shout me down if I'm behind the times - but is anyone interested in a blondite heads up tourney? I love heads up play and often at the final table it's chopped so heads up doesn't happen very often....

Is it something that already happens or not?

I was thinking that blondites could go onto one of the sites offering heads up and play their game on the cheapest heads up game ie. ten cents and it could be done on a league basis. Games have to be played within a week - that type of thing.

Thoughts anyone?

Excellent!

I have thought about suggesting this but know you have to be careful to make sure you get people to take part in the matches, it may be better to have a knockout comp then there will be less issues. A B&M cardroom tried to set a HU Comp and it has been going on for months and there are a lot of frustrated people, they didn't set dates by which games had to take place.

we could always set up a HU tourny to be played over and evening

if there is intrest in that it can be arranged on a week later in the month

good idea in theory

I suspect the powers that be and their grandad will wish to establish the weekly blonde MTTs first

but the idea of a blonde league has certainly been mentioned before

and heads up would be popular too I suspect

Of course, if Blondepoker had it's own skin for a site.................

Great - i was thinking about how they run local squash/tennis leagues where you enter a league and then have to have played your game by a certain date - normally a week or so. it's up to the 2 players to contact each other and agree the site and time and then liase on messenger or something about the game they log into. If it all goes wrong and they get a quicker caller one of them may have paid ten cents - no big deal.

All matches/results etc posted on web site - final games have to have been played by a specified date.  If its a knockout it could be run every month to keep people interested. Possible prizes donated by companies looking to promote them selves or just the glory of winning.

ah, how about this for an idea
 has anyone ever played in a pool padder? this format would work brilliantly for a HU league.

here's how it works.
Say there are 20 players drawn randomly to begin with. all pay an entry fee of £10 into an account
once a week you must challenge at least one personabove you in the league to a HU match. any stake, any site.
if the challenger winsthey move up one rung of the ladder and the looser pays £1 into the prize pool. the challenged player doesn't move (unless they were directly above the challenger). if the challenger loses no one moves and the challenger pays the £1

EG after the random draw I might be in 15th place and spot a fish in 10th and challenge them. we agree on a $10 HU on Laddies. if I win I move up to 14th and the fish pays £1 into a pot but remains in 10th. i he gets lucky no-one moves and I have to pay the £1.

Everyone must make at least 1 challenge in a week. a player mustaccept at least 3 challenges per week, althuogh if they're not challenged the only game they must play is their mandatory challenge.

Thoughts?

bump, busy board today

Sounds mighty confusing and complicated for a simple venture.
