The Dragon's Fury's Poker Tournament!

Hello! I bet you stumbled upon here because you are one of those people who love to participate in the usual Dragon's Fury Poker Ladder every Friday at 10 PM, or you are one of those people who really likes beating people with their Royal Flush in a poker table. Well, since we have played so many games together, I have brought you guys the first ever:

Dragon's Fury Poker Tournament!

I'd figure it would be awesome to host a tournament so those who could not be in our poker ladders due to time zones will now have a chance to compete! This will certainly bring excitement into letting our poker regulars to show off their skills and see who the ultimate poker player is.

For those who do not know what poker is, or do not know how to play, refer to this link: http://www.pokerrules.net/community/texas-holdem/







How We're Going to Play

This tournament will consist of two parts: we play poker like we usually do in the poker ladder, and then I am going to introduce you guys to the idea of having a shootout.

When we play regular poker, it will consist of having a minimum of 6 people per table, depending on how many people participate. However, when we get to the final table, only 9 people who qualify (number of people per table to be determined) will be able to compete in the shootout.

A shootout is kind of like poker playing, except people tend to go all-in with what they think is a winning hand. This will test the poker player's luck to see if their wishes of winning a hand will be in their favour. Don't think of this as a bogus way so players can play their bluffed hands. This is a way of seeing who will be the last people standing in their chance of getting first place in the tournament.

Since this is a poker tournament, and when we usually play in the poker ladders, we fight for points. Well, guess what guys. As administrator of the poker ladder, I am allowing you guys to fight for points, and DOUBLE THEM UP!

Oh, but wait! Only the final 9 people will receive points, but only the top 4 will have their points doubled. So you guys will have to play smart and fight hard so those points will be yours.


Point Values

Rules

* Please do not flame during the course of the tournament. Any encouraged continuation of it will result in disqualification.
* While you are allowed to take poker seriously, do not get to the point where it annoys you with how a person plays. There is a reason for why people are showing their skills.
* Do not go all in with every hand you get. If you do that, any admin or mod present in the table will warn you. If it continues, you get eliminated.
* Please remember to have fun!


The first part of the tournament will begin as soon as possible. The second part will begin on an unknown date, more preferably a week after the first part of the tournament.

If you guys have any questions or concerns, or you guys may have an addition to the OP presented, please ask.

kay i'm in c:

also, thats what he said. ^ mwaha.

I'm hopefully in. Depends on when you're hosting this.

IN.

EDIT: The aspect of a shootout doesn't entirely revolve around constant shoving and what-not; what makes a shoot-out a shoot-out is the fact that huge tables will conclude with one players standing and the winners of those tables will play at one table, etc.

typical shoot-out field in a 6-max tournament:

180 -> 30 -> 5 -> 1, etc.

In.

Like.

Fuck.

So in! Hopefully we agree on a time that works well this weekend.

Might be in. Depends on the time-frame.

ABOUT TIME

In as long as i can play rofl

Another donk-out? Count me in I suppose

count me in

sure, I'm down for this~

Guys, I know it says November 20th as the date of the tournament, but it could be a problem for some. ._. And I don't want to interfere with any sort of activities you guys have that day. I don't mind changing it at all.

Change if needed.

Okay, change of plans. I think it would be okay if I moved the tournament to Sunday. That way the tournament won't interfere and it'll give us still a good amount of time until the second part of it.

I'm working 2-10 everyday from Saturday - Wednesday... >__>

I'm in I'll just hafta be reminded...A LOT because i'm gonna forget >.<;

Working on Sunday.. .__.

Plus, I'll be at my mom's all weekend anyway. No internet access for stuff like this there.

I hope we can do this in the day time...
