Okay well tonight I am playing a super satellite to try to get into the $2700 Johnny Chan ME in May at River Rock. This means that I might not be home to play the Gauntlet. BUT if I somehow busto super early, you can bet that I'll be racing home to donk off in game 14 of Gauntlet because I really want a shot at the pretty trophy.
There are 11 games left this season and I am allowed to play in 9 more. This means that if it gets to 9 games left and I haven't played in any yet (so I'll have to play 9 of remaining 9 games), then I'll be registering for all of them no matter what. This is because you get points (for the leader board) for even participating in the game, no matter where you place ...
Okay that's irrelevant right now. I'm just reminding you guys that there's a game tonight and that you should play. Go register now!

I also cannot make it tonight, I only need 8 of 11 so I think I have a slight edge

Go for it! Best of luck in the super sat.
I'll keep your FTR Gauntlet chips warm tonight. Will be my 3rd. I'm going to need to play most of the rest!

Can someone please PM me the PW because everytime I click on "get PW", it tells me I'm not registered. Or if you don't want to PM me, can you tell me how to fix this??
Oh yeah, I definitely bustoed the satellite, lol.

Okay well nvm, finally got someone to help me out. But still would like to know how to solve this stupid problem. I think Xianti may have told me how to do it one time, but I forget how and still just don't get it.

Funny thing is, you managed to make the final table without even showing up!! You don't see that happen too often.

$20, points earned from games you enter but don't play don't count.
This is a total sucker bet by me. Behind 50 points and if the weather is nice on a Sunday: Ultimate >>>> Poker. The line should be at least +150, but whatevs.

Ohio State versus FL version for $20? I know you are behind right now, but you also have played two less games (counting last nights game that I weak/tight bustod out in 12th place in).
If you're scared, just say you're scared!!!

We can re-evaluate after you play Sunday. We can always put this on hold till the next Gauntlet if you aren't confident that you can catch me.
Of course, if you aren't confident in that why are you playing since you won't have a shot at winning unless you think you can pass my luckbox ass? Yes, I did just throw the Gauntlet DOWN!! hehe

Or we could put it on the championship game after both our teams win in the final four.

I think games I enter but don't play should be allowed if you have an equal number of games played. If you actually play the games and I am just registered and I sit out the entire time, you have the advantage anyway. What do you think?
That being said, I'm definitely not able to play this Sunday because I have to work.

If we have an equal number. I'll likely only get 10 in. I'll just have to make sure I don't loose by 50 pts or something stupid.
Using the official standings does make it easier. I was just looking for some edge because right now everything is in your favor.

Haha k well how about we'll see who's played the least games at the end and we'll take the top finishes of the same number of games from the other person and add up the points from that. Person with the most points is the winnah.

Bah, too complicated.
$20, official standings FTW.
I think it's safe to assume that being a guy makes up for any other edge you may have.

you could always do average finish with the criteria that you have to play in at least 6 games.
