Looks good. I would even throw in the occasional mid-week (non-Flames game days) games. Maybe earlier (7 pm-ish?)

This would give us two games per week, one weekend day, one week day. I won't be able to make most of the mid-week tourneys since I get off at 8pm Calgary time. I'll start setting them up and see what kind of turn out we get for them. It's not like it cost money to start them up and I figure by April we will have a better idea of what kind of turn out we should expect.

I will join in at some point, but I really need to go to bed at the end of the Toronto Ottawa game (can't believe I'm actually watching it tbh).

It's nearly 2.30 am here and despite only having one glass of wine tonight, I'm wrecked.

I guess we are playing 5 handed tonight...looks like they allow 10 minutes for late reg if anyone is running late.

I joined but I can't play tonight. I should be good for the game on the 23rd though. Do I need to do anything else to join? It said it was waiting for manager approval or something.

Sorry Hoot, I was trying to make it tonight but I got caught up doing other things.

I registered though and I'm good to go on 23rd.

Congrats to Fire, the winner of the first game taking home $120. We had a small turn out but it was fun with the 6 of us, and even 3 people showed up late so hopefully they can make it on the 23rd.

Look like there is a points system as well and the top 2, Fire & Frank, in this tourney got points out of it.

You forgot to mention who went out first HOOT. I'm sure he played a very good game of poker just got caught by a couple bad beats. Right?

No problem! It was fun, hopefully over time we get a full table or more coming out.

Sorry stupid stoner brain. Corrected to Wed.

Ya you guys went back and forth a bunch of times H2H. I was watching while playing another game so I got to see all the action.

What do you guys use to fund your Pokerstars account? I usually play on bodog and the money is put it directly from my bank account using usemybank. Anytime I have tried with a credit card it has been declined.
