Name a Tourney - & win FREE ENTRY

edited June 2010 in Poker Chat

We are still finalising details, so nothing is in the Lobby yet, nor will they be until Sunday or Monday (Staff Holidays rule, ok?), but all being well (still not 100% certain, but 90%+) the T-o-T stylee FREEZEOUTS, priced at £2.20, £5.50, & £11 will start next week, probably Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday.

We need a nice, catchy, Title for EACH of these three Tourneys, please. Something that will catch the eye, &, maybe, "link them" as identically structured Tourneys.
 
I really want these Tourneys to be a success, & will be working hard towards that end off & on Forum, & I think they will, as there has been a lot of noise asking for better structures, & these fit the bill a treat, imo. So expect - I hope - decent sized fields.

They do NOT need to include my name, not at all, though if it helps raise their profile, maybe it's worth considering. The existing T-o-T Rebuy, which debuts tonight, WILL retain it's existing "T-o-T prefix, come what may, so we need to be careful with not mixing them up.

There will also be another new Tourney on Wednesday, which will run in parallel with "my" Freezeout, & it will be called "Rich Pickings", & it will "belong" to Rich Orford. It will be a pile of poo in my opinion, compared to mine, though. ;)

So, just come up with names for the £2.20, £5.50, & £11 T-o-T stylee FREEZEOUTS, & one free entry to EACH of them is on offer to the winner(s).

    Oi!

    PS - OK, it did make me laugh. In fact, I laughed so much, I nearly.......

    But no, needs to be a little more "politicaly correct". We don't want to upset our "older" players, now do we? They can be a shade grumpy, you know.

    An embarrassing attempt at:

    £11 ToT - "The Nelson"

    £5.50 ToT - "The Napoleon"

    £2.20 ToT - "The Ducks"

    I'll get my coat....................

    Before this gets out of hand, the word is "catheter".

    Suggestions for tournament names:

    The Big Freeze
    The Medium Freeze
    The Little Freeze

    Hi Tikay.
    I think the tounaments could be linked by calling/advertising them the "DeepFreeze3"

    Each tounament could then be individually named as listed below.

    "DeepFreeze220"

    "DeepFreeze550"

    "DeepFreeze11"

    TSOP - That I LIKE!

    And well done the other night on winning that Orfordable, in the face of some provocative trash talk.

    Very impressive, the way you handled that puerile nonsense.

    As to "REAL" poker for the masses, I've devoted several years & scores of weekends to helping to promote "real poker" at affordable prices - & then arrived at Sky Poker & regularly stand accused of "not caring about the low staked players" - by guys who have never lifted a finger to help promote "poker for the people". Poker is a place inhabited by some very strange people.

    PS - Welcome to the Forum.
