Buy-ins & Freeroll tournies

[scrawnybob]

hi all

After yet another poor turnout for the buy-in tournies I've changed next weeks (Sunday 17th September) buy-in game at Pokerheaven into a $50 FREEROLL

This will be put into the 4kingpoker Freeroll Tour league table (game 14)

I really need some feedback on the buy-in tournies we are trying to run as the amount of time and discussions / justification required for sites to run tournaments for us isn't worth the time and effort for me or the few keen members who turn up / deposit at new sites etc to keep the league alive

Aside from the amount of hours I put in to get them organised I don't feel it's fair on the players who do keep turning out to play and find it doesn't run.

So although this means I have absolutely no chance of recovering the costs (from new deposits and sign-up through 4kingpoker)

Can as many members as possible vote in the poll / let me know what sites they DO play at with REAL money ??

I will try to sort out tournies at these site in order to keep the buy-in tour going

Cheers Scrawnybob

well you know me rob, i really like these games. a good standard of play and the $50 added is a great bonus offered by you.

as i said in my pm, if we keep them on the more popular sites, i still think that these buy-ins can work. i'd love to see some games at ultimatebet for example.

others that i think will work :
poker.com
titan
absolute
paradise (maybe)
pokerstars (maybe)

let's see what the other members have to say.

cheers harry

I agree about the site - I prefer the busier sites.

Stars and Ultimate Bet sounds a good idea.

bob and all,

agree with what you said harry.

i`m not looking to add new sites.

dream poker just closed my account because

i bank out of wa.

like ultimatebet, ap and noble.

Hi bob, a quick gripe 1st.
The poll asks which sites but you can only vote once.

I voted dream mainly because I can only deposit with Ukash.
Titan would also come into this category.

However I would play at any of them if I could deposit.

I try and support the forum by playing in the buy-in tour. I have money at plenty of sites and like small buy-ins but certain sites I don't have either because I didn't like them or had problems with them. I don't have Pokerheaven because of Boss casinos restriction of 4 programs per computer. Chances are I wouldn't put money there If I had it because I'd never play there.

hi guys

thanks for all the feedback - and please keep it coming everyone - it's a real help to try and get the right thing going on for everyone

thanks braisco - totally understand

the poll didnt quite setup as hoped - was suposed to allow multiple votes - any sites that aren't on the list - post em up and it will all go into the mix

cheers scrawnybob

How about some of the newbie sites out there?

Cake Poker?
Jungle Poker?
Others I'm sure.

I mention those two because I won some cash at each.
