Among other options we have Neteller and PokerStars accounts.

I can handle transfers but I don't want to do collections, etc. In other words, since this wasn't discussed before the season started I don't think we can force people to do the extra $10 Bonus pool. Anyone who wants to be involved for the extra $10 Bonus pool should transfer the money by an agreed upon date or else they are out of the mix for the $10 Bonus pool(but still in the mix for the original $50 FTR pool).

Oh yeah sure this is an optional side pot of $10.

So whoever wants to get involved PM Eric on how you want to transfer it to him.

It's the holiday season so I've been a little busy. I'll be able to be more on top of things later.

I'm down for the extra $10 pool, Eric can you organize, set a date, and provide directions for transfer? Neteller charges 2% so PokerStars may be a better option. Count me in.

Tyson and I just discussed this. We'll use PokerStars for the transfers since Neteller charges fees.

Anyone who wants to be involved in the "make it interesting" pool
needs to transfer $10 to my PokerStars account by December 31st.
My PokerStars handle is "ERockDog" and you can count me in(no need to transfer $ to myself).
{Edited 27-Dec-2005}
We'll do a 50%, 30%, 20% payout for this "make it interesting" pool.

Note: Regardless of the "make it interesting" pool, everyone is still in for the original $50 prize pool.
Per the http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=219241#219241 post, the distribution on the original $50 pool is 50%, 30%, 20%

I think the best idea would be to pay every spot so every plays til the bitter end since there might be a few more bucks in finishing 8th over 9th etc

thats pretty decent if u consider 123 for the 10 bucks then also the 50 we could split 123 its a decent picup for those 3

Yeah, I think 123 would be more fair than winner take all.... but since I am in first place.... ahem ahem.

Have a list of all people that contributed in the side pot, and pay the top 3 finishers out of that group (50%, 30%, 20%). And the $50 prize will be for the top three out of all players.

I will create my PokerStars account tonight and get the money transferred. Once we agree and finalize EVERYTHING, we should send a PM to all involved and give a deadline or something.

I have an interesting question though... how many of you have played in the Yahoo fantasy B-ball before? Towards the end of the season, they have like a "fantasy playoff period", where they do all kinds of special matchups based on records or something, with BYE's and everything... I think it lasts for maybe the last three weeks of the regular season or something. (need to read up on the details, but the matchups seemed a little weird to me) But I was wondering when our season will end... Will it be who ever has the best record before the fantasy playoffs, or will we let Yahoo do their special matchups and determine the placing?? (Like I said, we probably need to read up and understand the playoff structure better)

The 50%, 30%, 20% was for the original $50.

It sounds like we also wants to do that for the $10 "make it interesting" pool so I changed my post above

Obviously the 2 groups can be different. For example, if the #1 person in the league doesn't cough up the $10 then he is only 50% in the $50 pool, not the $10 pool(everything shifts down one).

You got it. I checked earlier today and storm75m's transfer went through so at the very least it will be me, you, storm75m and my brother Joel(jjstokes).
