    Default GAUNTLET - 8 GAME on Sunday

    Seriously, is anyone going to play this?

    I'm happy to donate for fun but am 100% going to get my ass kicked. The Gauntlet needs a back-to-basics revamp IMO.

    behind you with an axe
    I'm tempted, just for kicks to play against some of the guys on here. I missed too many as had no internet for 2 months so not playing serious. Trouble is, do you multitable like normal so you dont get bored, or do you play 1 table and really concentrate to try and look good? Cos I would quite to like win it, but have a very low boredomn threshold.
    I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong.

    The Gauntlet is effectively over (really, no one but Geno and Stacks have a chance at winning) so come and play B for fun and don't worry about it screwing up your place in the standings. Everyone sucks at it, so luckboxx your way to manies.

    pretty sure this isnt true, if anyone in top 5 wins out...next 3 and stax/geno dont play i think they have a shot..

    Only 10 games count though. Say drmcboy, Courtie or TLR win all 3 and get about 300 pts for doing so. Each of them have played 9 games and so wouldn't receive 300 additional points, rather about 230 in dr's case and less for the others, as two of the games they have already played would drop off. That's not enough pts, even if Stacks and Geno don't play (and they will if it means a title). That said, good luck getting 300 pts, if only because attendance has been poor.

    I feel outclassed in this word-war.

    I'm pretty sure it was either Captain100-n-coke, or Peppermint schnapps. Either way, I shouldn't have been playing poker...

    honestly, i really enjoyed the 8 game...even though i depise limit and deuce to seven...i think there should be more of these games especially at the beginning of a gauntlet season so people are more likely to play them...the NL HE should be more at the end so it will keep participation up

    I'd have to go back and look at the history, but I think I lucked into a good 9-low by 6th street. Not that it excuses the prior streets..
