In Response to Re: OMAHA OR OMAHA HI/LO? : Hi Mate, just curious, why is clash with Live show a possible issue?? Can't figure, but i can be very dumb admittedly, lol Posted by HITMAN_RV
Reasoning is quite simple really. On a show night the main focus on the threads will be NLHE especially with the live show going out being all NLHE.
By doing it on the night after a show then not only are they not forum competing but also gives us a chance to get onto the show thread to advertise and promote the comp. Show advertising to maximise our efforts. Hitting the forum users and the show watchers
Too be fair no matter what night there is going too be some other event be it on tv or the bigger tournaments that some will play Monday is a non starter -dtd night Tuseday turbo/football night Wedensday rebuy/football Thursday b/hunter minor football night Friday drinking night Saturday hungover/drinking again Sunday has the super roller
For me it looks like a choice of sunday or thursday and so far most seem too prefer the thursday and thats the one i would go for but wait and see if we get some more comments
thanks also all who have replied/voted and said they would play all the best churchy18
Whatever night you eventually choose, I'll do my best both to play it, & support it.
I really don't mind how the evenings are structured as long as we can have a bit of fun & bants.
My only caveat is that under no circumstances should the evenings be "Both". It has to be one, or the other, or even alternate. If we are going to try to convert new players to the 4 card game, playing "both" would be a disaster.

That would be great macacgirl and thanks all for the replies hopefully we can get the FOSP hi/lo league up and running sometime soon ..all the best Brian

Look forward to playing this league if it goes ahead.
I suggested Thursday because it is a night that people watch the show. I play while I watch the show & this wiil be great. Ideally, the same format at DTD (three tournies for £5.50) as this will encourage new players.
For whatever reason, Wednesday doesn't seem to be a good night & there are already events there. Tuesday or Thursday suit me best because I can play every week virtually (miss a few Tuesdays due to football) whereas Friday or Sunday depends on whether I am playing live or away for the weekend.

Yes, we can always change day at later date obviously, but its good to try & get best one set from the off!! it seems popular idea with PLO regs, so we wont know till we try. I'm up fa next week, but Brians decision!!

think by far most seem too agree with thursday so maybe go with that if we can david just let me know anything else i need too do and we can get it started
Count me in this, as a new rising star to plo8 (future champion you know) I would go for option 2 but with a buy in to equal DTD £5.50. I think keeping the overall buy in as low a possible, would definitely attract bigger fields imo. Don't think new players to plo8 who are learning the game would want to get there fingers burnt with higher buy ins.
Thursday night sounds good to me. I really do hope this can take off and attract more players to plo8. As for playing three tourney's of plo8 at the same time, this will definitely mash my brain. I struggle playing DTD, this is going to be a challenge for me (but I will be victorious).

"Oh no she's not"
She may well appear on Ch 861 in the New Year though.
If it helps to promote the game, I'll play (in the loosest sense of the word!) them until we move.
Good luck with it!
