| | | EF Poker Tournament 2008
Hi All,
There has been a lot of talk about poker, setting up games, all kinds of plans but things on the site do not seem to happen.
I do play regulary at different places with different people and have, perhaps, the possibility of setting up the first EF Poker Tournament.
Before I spend too much effort and time, I want to get a realistic idea of how many people would come, (not just say that they would)!
It would be a Friday night starting at 8pm, date tbd, could be soon.
The details would still need to be defined. This should not be a beginner event, people who join must have some experience, know how to play and understand the rules. This doesnt mean you have to be a pro, just that you wont hold up the game or create problems.
I have set up the pole, please answer only if you would seriously come!

Do you think you could set up a private table for EF people on one of the poker sites and we could have an online game also?

If were all on the same site, we could create a private table.
I personally use pokerstars (i think) the problem is everyone will be using different sites.

Ok people, looks like this can and will happen.
I need people to add themselves to the poll, regardless of the other thread as there are many players from GVA and other areas that I assume would not come to Zurich for this.
Please get your friends to sign up if they want to join.
We can then set up a doodle for dates that are good for everyone once we see there are enough players.
There would be a "fee" to enter the tourney, around 50% of that fee would go to EF, I am making nothing from this event, except if I win.
So get people to add themselves.

Exactly. I don't think I have ever found it so difficult to organise a home game as here. I'm in for a tournement, but would love to see a regular rotating cash game happen too.
