I play at PokerPages in the big point tournaments when I want to play for free, go to Pacific Poker and play in little five person No Limit Sit N Go's when I want to play for cash. Once in awhile I'll get adventurous and drop a couple bucks into some huge tournament where the blinds go up every two seconds. I finished fourth in one a couple months ago and won $116! I actually am preparing to hit the books and reinvent myself as a low limit ring game player though, I figure it's a more boring and mechanical game, so hopefully I could learn to grind out a little more money doing it with the added bonus of no all in heart attacks.
Oh and I'd be in for a W poker tournament. I tried to find a way to set up a free private no-limit tournament awhile ago and failed. I have been a broken man ever since.
Is it just me, or are wrestling-related screen names about as common as Rounders-related screen names, or names with a 420 or 69 or 42 tacked on to the end?
Originally posted by JayJayDeanI play pretty much only at qogs.com, and it's all free but they have a game every night at 7:00 pm Pacific and it's $30 to the winner, with no entry fee except accumulated credits.
Congrats on winning that last tournament. I may need to sharpen my skills more before playing in the big $30 tourny. I've been playing QOGS too. Do the most people show up for that tournament? Maybe next month I sink my teeth...

Thanks. Now that you mention it, I think I've played against you in a qualifier or two.
Last night there were 117 entries, and the table I started at had four live players and six "outers", and one guy got beat on the first hand on an all-in, so the first ten minutes was basically us playing three-handed. After I got moved I was with almost all live people, though I think an outer might've gotten to #20 or so.
The coolest part of last night was that when I got to the last table I had only 2700 of the 117,000 chips in play, and at the time that was my highest chip count of the night. I FINALLY started getting some cards after that, but at one point before the final table I had 1300 chips and the guy next to me had over 25,000.
