Sweeeeet Ronny D Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I may be interested, how long do you expect this thing to last for? I am too old to be playing online poker till 3am EST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrano Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 If you are in the US then you are in luck, it will begin during your early afternoon and not go on for too late, as we are also accommodating European players. It will most likely start at around 7-9pm server time (we'll decide a bit later), that is, I believe, around 2-4pm on varying US times, and will end hopefully no later than 1am server time each night.

Sweeeeet Ronny D Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I assume players have the ability to auto blind themselves since I would most likely be at work at the start of this tourney? I assume the blind structure to be pretty slow since you expect this tourney to last two days? I guess i could just bug you on discord when i get home.

Syrano Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Come bug me on Discord when you get home The tournament is being allocated about 5 hours on each of the two days, for a total of 10 hours game time, which is pretty darn short considering. We'll be keeping it in that time frame by adjusting blind levels as necessary. You can auto blind yourself once you've sat down, and that shouldn't be a problem at all on Saturday afternoon when the blinds are low and the table is full - but on Sunday, assuming you make it to the final table, you should definitely be there from the start.

If you can't afford to play, but you're actually good at playing the game, come find me on Discord. I've bought four seats and am looking to hire some folks to sit down and win me money. The people I hire won't know who else is hired, although the game masters will know that they're playing with my money (since I've already sent the cash and am now gathering up the people). Precautions are in place to help ensure that cheating and collusion doesn't happen. As for why I'm doing this, it's smart business sense.

We'll probably be trying at some point in the future with a smaller buy-in, like 50M. Won't be a 1 billion prize for 1st place but meh...
