(If you don't know what this is about, read this thread).

Given there seems to be sufficient interest in running a repeat of the SNG experiment, I thought I'd take a stab at organising a time. My suggestion is Saturday 31st March at the following time:
- 1pm West Coast US/Canada
- 4pm East Coast US/Canada
- 9pm UK
- 10pm CET
- 6am (1st April) Australia East Coast Sad

The tourney will be a $5+0.50 at Stars (since it's honour and glory rather than money we're after here Wink) and should take about 2 hours because the blind levels are 15 minutes rather than 5/10. Note also because there is a late registration period that the tourney will start off as two tables of 4 and 5 players until the late registration period is over; we may be able to overcome this by sitting out until the tables join.

Please PM me ONLY if you CAN make it and I will maintain a running list of the confirmed attendees. If we get enough for two tourneys I can set up two separate games. If the time does not work I will try it for another time.

Confirmed attendees:*
taipan168
fold_station
K2 the ArmA
anarchoi
Sprayed
Fimanoid
TLR
Random_Hero
zachaser

Reserve list
dev
TreNd

* OK, even though we have 9 players, please PM me if you're interested because a) we may have dropouts prior to the day and b) if we get another 9 interested parties we may be able to run two separate tourneys.

Sorry man, I should have been a bit more democratic about it and held a vote whether weekdays/weekends worked best for everybody. If we don't get 9 players I'll post a poll to find out what works best.

At this stage yes, assuming we get enough players Wink

Bump. The tourney has been created as a $5.50 on Stars - I'll send out the password, the instructions for commenting on the HH and a few other things to it via PM over the next couple of days.

Anybody on the confirmed list who can't make it please let me know as we have two players on the reserve list.

Great, thanks a lot - the tourney ID is 45986391 called "FTR SNG Experiment" in Tourney/Private in the Stars lobby. If you're on Stars at 4pm Stars time (EST) then come to one of the tables - if we have a vacancy I'll give you the password.

Of course, anybody else is more than welcome to rail too!

I just finished reasing the full HH. gg's all around. Can't wait to see some comments.

-I can't believe how well I was reading hands. I almost puked reading the HH when that never translated into any situations where I could bluff.

Did knowing that the HH was going to be posted amongst peers make anyone play this differently than they would have just any other sng?

Just curious...

Someone had commented about possibly folding because he knew they would see the hand later. I don't think I played any differently.
