FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
~Welcome to the FFR poker league~
Emerald's Generous Deal: "I will give out credits to everyone who participates to the first tournament where there will at least 10 participants. I will give 100k to the winner, 50k to the runner-up, 25k to the 3rd place, 12.5k to the 4th, ... so ceiling(100000*2^(-n)) credits to the nth position." February Schedule: All times are in server time. There will usually be five games every day. This is a tentative regular schedule. There will be special events some days and any day is liable to permanently change due to popular demand. If tourneys are lasting too long or not long enough that can be changed as well. February 3rd, special tourney at 8PM: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...d.php?t=122368 Format: There are 200k credits up for grabs for the monthly leaderboard. Whoever has the most points by the end of the month wins the most of the credits. You get points by placing well enough in any individual tourney. (See tourney structure when tourneys are set up in pokerstars for details.) Credits are going to be awarded via a 20% award structure. Everyone in the bottom 80% receives nothing. But you don't necessarily have to be a great player to win. This format encourages regular playing, winning percentage is irrelevant. In order to count as a "player" for the month you have to participate in at least 4 tourneys. Note: At least 4 people have to be in a tournament for that tournament to count towards the monthly leaderboards Payout Example: 50 players. Top 10 in total points win a share of 200k credits. 1st:35% 2nd:20% 3rd:14% 4th:10% 5th:7% 6th:5% 7th:4% 8th:3% 9th:2% 10th:1% ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introduction: This is a league on FFR to promote regular and varied poker tournaments and ring games for all to enjoy and partake in. Even if you want to play just for free, you can still win your fair share of 200k ffr credits (and counting)! Pokerstars is a great place to play poker with people online period. There was an attempt to start a league like this approximately a year ago but it didn't get off the ground. Jae is the founder of the league. Also "Black Friday" (http://www.pokernews.com/news/2012/0...iday-11693.htm) occurred last April which was a huge speed bump for online poker. It has somewhat recovered now, at least if you don't live in the US. How To Join: (Any confusion, feel free to ask) 1) pokerstars.com pokerstars.net.

Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
damnit, awein - I'm soooooo tempted to join this..
I used to be stupidly addicted to poker, and earned close to $200K from scratch in a few weeks on zynga poker. I bet I could get back in the rhythm of things If I started playing in pokerstar's free league. $_$ |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
Sweet! Ya brought it back! Donated 100K for the tourney pot. Account made.
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-

I live in the US for now. Can't play legally for money and can't set up the games legally either. And I won't. Maybe if we want to play for real we could say this game is for "x" dollars. And we handle transactions outside of PS. But then again we could still get in trouble for that I think. |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-

Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
We had our first tournament that counted toward the Feb leaderboards, 7 entrants, and the game more than lived up to expectations. We had some excellent play, some sick hands, some "awein getting lots of 10's", and a key suckout that was the biggest pot of the tourney that knocked emerald out in 3rd place just shy of points. They got it all in on the flop on a q9q board. ksl had jacks. Em had queen eight. Jack on the river.
He did a good job of finishing me off afterwords, therefore I took second for 2.9 points and ksl33zy took 1st for 4.1 points, currently in 1st place for the leaderboards! Congrats to him. Join in next tourney for some crazy ass poker fun :) |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
That was a really nice match, even with that stupid jack at the end. Let's hope more people join. It would be crazy to have more than one table!
At that end, I just got an idea. I will give out credits to everyone who participates to the first tournament where there will at least 10 participants. I will give 100k to the winner, 50k to the runner-up, 25k to the 3rd place, 12.5k to the 4th, ... so ceiling(100000*2^(-n)) credits to the nth position. Let's hope that might bring some new people. Free credits to everyone! |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
I'm in, when is the next tourney?

Yeah, let's get those 10 people! It's tough though. |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
For now on all tourneys in the regular schedule will have a maximum of 10 minute blinds.

I spilled water on my laptop earlier this afternoon and the keys are completely spazzing out. I can not use it. I can only dl pokerstars on that comp. I can't make games or participate until it fixes somehow.

Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
so how about i'm 1/5 in preflop allins with aces this month at cash games. LOL
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
how bout losing a cool 500 dollars to aces last week.
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
Haha I can't even win with aces I swear the casinos are rigged somehow. I run so bad every time.

I just applied, the username is TotalBlank.
Anyone able to help me with some confusion I'm having? I haven't played in a while and they've seemed to have moved/removed the ability to look into chip count totals and info that used to be on the right hand corner near the local time display. Is this feature gone or just hidden? Also, my avatar has disappeared, I used to have a small head shot of myself and it's just empty now. |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
Finally, a decent cash win. Idunno how to do all that show spoiler bs, but I have a picture in my profile. Turned 275 dollars into 1500 bux (:
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
I forgot to post that I found out what the problem was, turns out PokerStars.net and .com have two separate installers (which I failed to see that anywhere). I had downloaded the .net one which has limited features and only Play Money, so I reinstalled the .com version and it's ok now.
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
For now on if anyone wants to play a home game with fellow ffr members play at "WSOPlaymoney" home game.
THE RESULTS ARE IN (finally. (Not a single person asked for any credits yet though)). February Standings: Code:
Rank player games points KO trance 55k, efefar 43k, jjtrixx 35k, emerald 35k, ~Riotpolice 16k, allycat19 12k, musicalkate 10k, iironiic 6k, blacktiger98 6k, m0nm0nm0n 6k, imlolhotdogz 6k Underlined people haven't been awarded credits yet because I don't know their ffr names. I need help. Everyone else has been awarded :) Payout Notes: Because I'm so late I'm giving away tons of bonus credz. I payed out everyone according to the formula who got points except myself. Then for the people who didn't get any points I gave 1k for every game played. Then I gave everyone extra credz for teh lolz. More extra if you have points. Total credz I'm giving away is 230k. The initial prizepool was 200k and I'm not paying myself for winning ;) FFR Poker League Talk: The turn out for this was rather disappointing. Games only count with 4+ entrants and more than 80% of the time I couldn't even get that. So in general it was a pain in the ass to even get a game going. I don't plan on continuing FFR Poker League unless there is a spike in interest. I realize that this is a forum centered around a rhythm game and that a poker league most likely will not interest most people, especially if I personally can not involve real money online. I had lots of fun playing despite the low turnouts. Feel free to discuss. Special Thanks: Trance and Riot for being regulars. Flipsta for donating 100k credz. Jae for organizing "the big tournament" with me/supplying credz. Emerald for his additional credit formula/support. And everyone who helped try to recruit more people. |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
I joined :) but I didnt join "WSOPlaymoney"
should i join that one? Im in the other one haha |
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
pretty sure this is dead, but i'd play if it becomes alive again
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
Andrew, emerald & myself still play some sporadic PLO/HORSE from time to time. Once the official is over perhaps we should organise a big tourney? I'll throw down a couple of 100k for one of those~ (just to see more than 1 table turn up...)
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
if there are 5+ people interested and participating fairly regularly i'll happily start this up again. only reason i stopped was because of lack of popular interest.
|
Re: FFR Poker League -ALIVE!!!-
Well yeah i'm in fo sho. Just hit me up.
