Yes I enjoyed HU play but format makes for very long tourney with a lot of dead time waiting to play. I will be away from home till early next week so will not be active in forum for few days and will not be playing sundays game

at 5min. blinds I'm probably back again at 5K and 10min. definitely not!
Nice weekend all

New Tourney with 5 min Blinds is set up for tomorrow. Do not register early. I deleted 3 from the league and I have suspended the others that were registered early except Eberetta1. Again, Eberreta do not register too early for this. If you do they all think it's ok because you do. I can't set the registration for 1 hour in home games.
Less than an hour, who's in??
everyones scurrred
just me and eberretta in so far ....hopefully he sits out and i take it down
Ha
I am in.
Good Luck to all on the tonight tournament :)

Another 6th place! ;-)
Just a tip: you can also schedule 1 hour before the start of the tournament. So do you stop people register earlier. I have this rule really overlooked. But now i know it. I hope that my suspension will be deleted.
Do you think FTR admins are just going to sit around and wait to schedule things an hour in advance? I have a Job, a family, and a life. I schedule FTR Gauntlet games when I have time. Same as the other freerolls and money added events. The owners of FTR have several businesses.Quote:

Oh, here is a Guarantee in case all of you playing haven't caught on. An FTR reg will win the Gauntlet money. You can choose to become an FTR reg as of now or not, that is your choice.
theres also another rule that you've overlooked. look at the first post in the signup thread and repeated on the 14th april by jymsQuote:

Yeah format was spot on. Deep stack meant plenty of poker, turbo meant it didn't drag on.
Good. We will have one more week of HU going forward. I will make the next two weeks games up tonight. I will also update the standings from Sundays games. I should be able to play in quite a few going forward too. Still plenty of games for people to get 12 good placings.
5 minute blinds improved the HU game so much. Like that starting amount is $3000, not the $1500 that most free tourneys are.
Hello Jyms,
Is there a possibility that i can return to this tournaments?
What can I do!
I have learned my lesson well.
I would very much appreciate if I get another chance.
I will read the rules and I will comment if I can.
I am sorry for the misscommunication
Greetings
