I have a proposal. We've tried the poker nights at Absolute Poker with some success. I think a cool idea would be a heads-up tournament (meaning 1-on-1, single elimination). If we could get 8 or 16 players interested, then we could all sign up at www.pokerpages.com where they have heads-up tournaments. Both players start with 10,000 chips and the blinds increase every 10 minutes (beginning at 50/100 I think) until one player has all the chips. This could be a single-elimination, bracket style tournament or maybe even double-elimination if it would be more fun that way. What do you guys think? Id be willing to handle the administration of this tournament. Sound fun?

BTW I love these tourneys there, Im 5-0 so far :)

The scheduling of this would be dependant on each person setting up a time with their opponent that works well for them.

At the time we tried this Absolute Poker was the easiest place to get a table with 7 or so FOFCers for a tournament.

This tournament idea does not require an entry fee.

This tournament will be with the pokerpages software, not absolute poker.

I haven't played as much lately as I would've liked, but for a competitive tourney, I will find the time.
