Due to some of the players from Season I not having Absolute accounts, it has been set up at PokerStars. In your PokerStars lobby, go to Tourney, then Private and look for:

Sep 01, 21:00, FTR Gauntlet II: Tournament of Champions

More info: http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...ic.php?t=14187
That's this Thursday at 9:00pm ET.

$25 bounty on each of the season Champions, LeFou and Les_Worm!

The password for registering to this invitation-only private tournament has been sent via PM to qualifying players.

PLEASE DO NOT SHARE THIS PASSWORD WITH ANYONE NOT IN THE LIST BELOW!

Qualifying Players:

1. LeFou
2. zenbitz
3. DavSimon
4. robe43
5. Smack29
6. ttanaka
7. dwarfman
8. Les_Worm
9. esattech
10. EasyT
11. mgobluefb
12. Mashey
13. Aquabug918
14. Jes_Gru
15. realgenius
16. mike4066*
17. MrSlippery*
18. Eric*


*Qualifiers from Season I, rocker52 and cupandhandle, have not logged into our forums in several months, and DavSimon qualified in both seasons, so I've filled out the balance of 18 players with 10th place from Season I and 10th and 11th places from Season II.

Much looking forward to it!

Does the winner get an FTR t-shirt, or what? Of course nothing compares to the bragging rights.

EasyT.

I'm not worried about Les Worm, he'll only be up against 17 players, not worth his A game. Now if there were 50+ players then I'd worry about him. But otherwise, yeah, this will be one tough ass tourney.
This is a true story. I'm not a paid actor. FTR does not guarantee any results. People can and do lose money when playing poker.

Bounties, Sweet.. Those guys better look out!!!

If and win I win I will put it into an WCOOP Event. I was planning on playing in a couple of them, was anyone else?

I like these events myself...

4. September 7 (Wed) Pot-Limit Hold'em $200
9. September 12 (Mon) Seven Card Stud $300
3. September 16 (Fri) Pot-Limit Omaha $500

I've been trying to qualify for the 2500, don't feel like dumping that kind of cash into an event though.

I should have made that a little clearer. I should have said I like those events beyond all the NL, under 500 events.

Dwarfy, If you are able to play...time wise,and want to play just let me know.....don't worry about the money. If you cash in the tourney send the $22 back no vig, if you don't cash no harm no foul. I don't want you to miss this opportunity just because of 20 bucks.

I got all in against Jes_Gru 3 times. I sucked out on him the first two and then he busted me by sucking out when his AT beat my QQ.
