Dear 4king, and bob.

I understand that the times are normal for most of you, but here in Holland , the tournaments , freerolls and buy in's start way to late for me ,,, since im a student and have to go to school in the morning, or work when i got a work placement from school which i need to attend to, it gets diffucult for me to enter these tournaments that start around 24:00 here and then when it takes 2 hours , it would be 2 o clock in the evening which is way to late for me ...

Hopefully this might change some events in the future .
The event of pacific will be around 9 o clock here so i will be able to play that one.


Ohye im in the Pokerheaven Vip Freeroll 1000 $ guarantee , will update how that went ..

I'm in the UK and I don't get to play the late ones.We usually have an early one for us 8pm.
Bob is very good as he does accomodate both time zones.

Default Non US league should be good for Euro players

hi

I appreciate that if the Euro players are die hard Full Tilt / Stars / Bodog or Carbon players then the US Open games are a bit late

but thats why I setup the Non US league at around 5 hours earlier

so those games are at PKR, Pacific, Titan & RedKings

as half the games in both leagues are freerolls - why not signup to the sites (via our links) and play those ?

;-)

cheers scrawnybob

i hear ya buddy....

i dont know what time it starts at holland but here in israel its 03:00 am!!!

and i already tried askind bob about this issue without success.
btw, the previous league (in 2007) was much more comfortable for us europeans but that was changed.
personally, i dont know about you but only the US league matters to me, and if i were you i would adjust my thursdays from now on in order to be there for the final stages of the tournament. meaning, going to sleep at the afternoon, or not going to sleep after the tourney and crash after you get back from school.

you know, do the things you have to do....

i've made these adjustments long ago, and look im the league winner!

Wink Oh well

Ill try to figure out a way to play in all the events,

To bad yesterday when i tried to play the pacific one, my computer shut down , because of a error that pacific makes, and then i reboot , i tried to get my seat again , the game makes strange noises , and then i hear some beeping and then my computer reboots again , so i have big issue with pacific, i might aswell just delete it from my computer since it doesnt work , does anybody have the same problem with pacific poker >? the comp rebooting .

i also cant play there, or titan or virgin.... only PKR. where is that "cry" smiley from carbon when it's needed....

here is how i was donked out this time, at yesterdays FTP freeroll.

So, its an early stage and after folding all the junk i am getting QQ second UTG and make a 4 time standard raise. get RERAISED!!! by some cutie and an all-in from the player at the small blind!!!!

So i call, and the reraiser flips over pocket 55's!!! (which he re-raised me with earlier ...)
and the small blind flips the Jacks....

5 on flop to send me sleep early.

LOL only on FTP

Default Time zones

Same for some of us US players too. Sure wish all the poker sites had a drop drop list so you could adjust times for your area instead of having to add an hr on 1 site, subtract 2 hrs on another, ect

I was thinking of going all in with pocket 5's , OMG , maybe he taught you had Ax low and would fold , he thinks the one who went all in behind him had a bluf , and you calling was like no alarm bells around his ears , it was music , oh cool 1 hand i know and the other is a bluf , im surely calling with my pocket 5's .

...

To bad you went out like this, be happy it was a freeroll , and you had nothing invested.
Hope to see ya tomorow at the buy in from ftp , i was second to buy in after bob .

On pokerstars they have a lot of tournaments which start early. Also, they have nordic free rolls.

I have a unique problem in that I'm a US player that can't play past 9PM CDT.
Alot of day games are set up for non US players at sites I can't play at.
I work a night shift job and have had to blind out at a final table to make it to work on time several times. I guess u can't please everyone all the time.
