zomgggg the gauntlet!

Hey guys, go to the Gauntlet forum and put your thoughts in this thread:

http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...ad-191341.html

When I joined FTR 7 years ago (holy crap that makes me feel old), Gauntlet was awesome. We'd regularly have 4 or 5 tables of participants, and it was really fun to play against forum regulars. If you were new to the forums, it was also a great way to get to know other members. I really felt like part of the community after participating in the Gauntlet.

Black Friday will make it tough to get back to old numbers, but it would still be really fun if we could fill even two tables on a regular basis.

If you don't know what Gauntlet is, here's a link:

FTR Gauntlet - Online Poker League

The page is obviously outdated, but you should at least get the idea.

these were fun

**rong** · 08-19-2012 09:46 AM

I'd play if enough forum regs did.

**boost** · 08-19-2012 10:42 AM

wow, I had completely forgotten about these. Last I remember, they were filled with a bunch of bonus whores. But I remember playing in ones with Lukie, Gabe, Soupie, Michael1123, Radashack (lol), etc...

Thanks for the thread donkbee, I'm very excited about it too!

I'd be up for this but, given that we struggled before BF, I don't see how it's possible now.

**aka_red** · 08-20-2012 11:23 PM

the last couple seasons before BF weren't organized very well. While we can't hope for the participation that we got back in 2006, we can definitely do better than the last couple tries.

I don't think I can play online poker because I'm suffering from too much freedom

**kiwiMark** · 08-21-2012 02:28 PM

So if it's scheduled for after the wedding?

Will be fun to have side bets!

**Jack Sawyer** · 09-09-2012 09:42 PM

I'd play, but I haven't been able to log into my PokerStars account since last year. My rsa token stopped working or something, I've already cashed out by then so I didn't care too much about it.
