Hi-Lo - Anyone up for a High-Lo Quadathlon Tonight?

edited June 2010 in Poker Chat

It's not my PTP evening, but I fancied a little light entertainment, so if anyone is up for this, feel free to join in.

I'm going to play FOUR different Hi-Lo Omaha Tourneys this evening, as follows.....

8.25pm, £1.10.

8.55pm, £11

9.25pm, £3.30.

9.55pm, £5.50.

A sort of quadathlon, 1 each at all 4 buy-in levels, so something for everyone.

Not sure we sort out who the overall winner is, because not many will play all 4, & not everyone can afford the bigger buy-in ones. Also the £1.10 will get a LOT more runners than the £11, of course.

But unless someone comes up with a better idea, I'll make the rules up as we go along, & hopefully fix it so that I win, & you don't.

Whoever the winner is, though, will get free entry to this Friday's "take-on-Tikay" Tourney. Especially if it's me.

Anyone up for a bit of this, then?

Remember, you do NOT have to play all 4, & the scoring system will sort that out somehow. (Vince - help me please!).

I'll be on the Steam-Driven Lappie tonight, so doubt if I can manage Forum Updates, but lets wait & see.

Who's up for a bit of this, then?

    GREAT start to this - only been up 30 seconds, & we have FOUR entries so far - 1 in each of the 4 Tourneys.

    Fancy that.

    Lol, that was SO funny!

    YOU thought your "Lo" was good, & I was betting the Low hard to get you off. 

    But you called, thinking your Low was good (it was not) but instead, you took the High - with pocket Fives!

    Loved the game, loved the evening.

    See you later.

    PS - Good luck in the HU, Gareth.

    ELEVEN Entries now.

    Excellent.

    If we can somehow scrape together 50 entries between the 5 Tourneys, that'd be pretty good, I think.

    Hi Nillis,

    Nice one. That's the whole idea of including the whole range of buy-ins, something for everyone, just a bit of fun, really.

    Amazingly, we now have NINETEEN runners spread across the Four Tourneys.

    PS - Thank you for signing up to my twitter page - the benefit will be seen at WSOP time, where you'll get the news FIRST!

    TWENTY THREE now - with 3 hours to go.

    We might yet make the half-century.

    ACHEM - That was me, not YOUNG_GUN. Hahahahaha! Thanks for returning the favour by the way, very greatful. You'll be the first one to know about how much money i'm in the process of winning/losing while i'm grinding at the local Gala!

    I would love to join you this evening but unfortunately my girlfriend has a very shoddy internet connection, and she would kill me if I spent more than a minute away from her anyway. Must you pick the ONE night a week that I spend at her house to do an Omaha Hi-Lo Quadathlon??

    I will play in most but may give the £11 one a miss - gonna be hard to multi table all 4 at the same time if still in all.

    P.S. I don't mind updating the thread for one of the tournaments if that helps gramps - i know how slow you are in multi-tasking!! Maybe a few others could update as well in other tournaments to give you more time to answer those constant questions being fired at you

    Oh dear, my apologies - I got confused between "Young Gun" & "YoungUn"!

    We will do another one of these on a different night soon - see you then.

    Well I shall be playing Cash this very evening as well as the Main even at 8pm.. However if my current forms holds true I will probably be 'released' from the main event in time for the 8.25 HiLO... Should I manage to stay in by some strange twist of fate I shall defo come and add some more VALOOOO to the next HiLo Tourney on the list!!

    COME AND GET IT!!!

    If I were you, I would not overly concern myself with that highly unlikely eventuality. There's more chance of Cardiff reaching the Pemiership.
