Ping: All FOFC Poker players

[SirFozzie]

How about running our own private poker tournament and seeing who's the best.. I see from the dynasties we have quite a few, so maybe if we can agree to a client (absolute poker?) and a time, we can imporve by playing each other

[MrBug708]

Sounds...interesting....

[RPI-Fan]

I'm most definitely in...

[SirFozzie]

Cool. I can't get pokerroom's tourney function to work, but Absolute Poker looks NICE.. I've signed up for a couple freerolls in the Online Poker Tour

[TredWel]

Hmmm ... this has possibilties, assuming there's enough interest

[Radii]

I'd love to.

[lcjjdnh]

I'm in, assuming we're using play money and not real money

[Pumpy Tudors]

If it's play money, I want in!

[digamma]

I'm probably still a novice amongst this crowd, but I'd be interested in playing, time permitting.

[vtbub]

Play money sounds good.

[sterlingice]

I'd be interested as long as it doesn't cost anything and it is at a good time.

SI

[thealmighty]

Sounds like fun.

[henry296]

I'm not great, but would play if they day and time work.

Well we had six or seven show up, I've won one of three so far ;) At least I knocked out VT a couple of times

Da Foz

[vtbub]

Bah

[SirFozzie]

Newsflash, VT just took two in a row from me..

too bad this time he's $3K down in chips still ;)

(good tourney play)

[MJ4H]

bah looks like i missed something ive wanted to do for a long time. on my way there now to at least watch.

[vtbub]

had a blast, thx guys.

[Esquared1]

Sir Fozzie,

Thanks for setting everything up. I hope we all can get together soon and try it again.

Some guys at work are getting together for the "Little League World Series of Poker" in early August. This was a great practice tool for that. I hope I can win a couple bucks in our real tourney.

[Radii]

that was a lot of fun :) Good idea, Foz

[bbor]

Dammit...i just started playing hold-em on yahoo and i'm hooked......i hope this happens again...i'll be in for sure.

[SirFozzie]

Well, VT suggested we get together Friday night, I'm in the Online Poker Tour day tournament (1 PM) and I think RPI's in the 10 PM tournament that night, but if we wanted to play around that time (or get a heavy FOFC presence in the OPT tournies, since they are free) I'd be cool with it.

[MJ4H]

im in whenever baby. just tell me where and when.

[Airhog]

I might throw down some chips sometime with you guys, It couldnt be friday most likely. But we will see.

[primelord]

I'd be interested in getting in the next one too.

[lcjjdnh]

Maybe it would help if we started a list of AIM, ICQ or something. This way we could tell when everybody is online.

My AIM screename is hermlation.

I posted mine previously :)

Surrender to the Dark Side, Luke :)

I used to be the same way but eventually it just made everything easier to just get it

For those that don't want to use AIm you should look into installing Gaim.

Gaim Link (http://gaim.sourceforge.net/)

It supports AIM, ICQ, Yahoo, MSN, IRC, and few others all in one little IM package. Plus it is open source and no spyware. :)

[MJ4H]

i used to use trillian until i started needing features of yahoo messenger that trillian didnt support (ie conferencing). gaim probably doesnt support it either but ill give it a try.

[vtbub]

AIM is pretty good, I use Trillian most of the time, but somethings are best in AIM.

[MJ4H]

ok got GAIM

add me as MattJones4H under AIM

Damn!
