thanks to ABC for setting it up.....

let's try to get a full table next time.....

[cartman]

I'm in. Gotta make it 3 of 3 in these! I want to be known to FOFC Poker as Quiksand is to IWS. :D

[AnalBumCover]

I'll try to make it this time. BTW, it's at 9pm ET.

[RGunner]

Sorry I couldn't make it to the last one, something came up at the last minute and I was out of the house then...I'll definitely try to make it this time

[Logan]

I'm in, as long as I'm around...

[Vince]

I might be in for this one. I'll keep tabs on it.

[TLK]

Registered.....

[cthomer5000]

I am 99.9% certain that i WILL be in on this.

[SirFozzie]

I'll be in it to win it.

[Huckleberry]

Keep these going, guys. My 50 cent PokerStars account is up to $10.11 now. I'm on my way! :)

[SirFozzie]

Tell you what.

To try to get a full table Plus, I will transfer $2 to any first timer in this tourney. if you make the money, I get the $2 back. K? :D

[Cuckoo]

I'd like to play... especially given SF's generous nature. :D

Here's my only problem. I have an account at PokerStars, but I can't deposit into it because it won't accept my credit cards. I've looked into the other options and decided not to use them. However, I have a money account at PartyPoker. If someone would transfer me the money in PokerStars, I'd transfer them the same at PartyPoker.

Let me know if anyone could do that.

Thanks.

[cthomer5000]

Cuckoo, I'd do that if you wanted. I have accounts virtually everywhere. :)

[Cuckoo]

Thanks cthomer, my ID at PokerStars is Cuckoo77. What's yours at Party?

[cthomer5000]

Thanks cthomer, my ID at PokerStars is Cuckoo77. What's yours at Party?
cthomer5000 at both. I'll send the money from PokerStars now.

[cthomer5000]

dola. Duh, we'll do $50? I think that's the minumum at Party.. right?

[Cuckoo]

cthomer5000 at both. I'll send the money from PokerStars now.

Cool. I'll do the same at Party. Thanks man.

[Cuckoo]

dola. Duh, we'll do $50? I think that's the minumum at Party.. right?

Yeah, you're probably right. That sounds good.

[cthomer5000]

sent to you at PokerStars.




Hello cthomer5000,


We have transferred $50.00 from your account to 'Cuckoo77' as per your request.

Good luck to you both.


Regards,

PokerStars Cashier</pre>

[Cuckoo]

sent to you at PokerStars.

K- give me just a sec. Party is telling me I have to have $100 in there to transfer $50.

[Cuckoo]

Hey, cthomer, jump on AIM for a second if you have a minute, and let me know your AIM ID.

[Cuckoo]

Okay, sent. Thanks again.


I'm in.

[Cuckoo]

If it doesn't fill up and you don't mind, let me know. I may have a friend who would like to play.

[TLK]

bump....

[Radii]

cool, i'd forgotten about this. Can most likely play, but will wait til Sunday to see what the plans are before I register.

[RGunner]

I'll only be able to play if my computer gets fixed by Sunday, if my recovery CD comes tomorrow or Saturday then I will be in, if not, then I cant

[Cuckoo]

I'm bumping this one now. I'm going to be missing the Cubs game to play so we better get a full table. :)

[sabotai]

registered

[TLK]

bump.... seven registered... a full table is looking realistic....

[Logan]

I'm in (Terps54424).

Could this spill over onto another table, or is this a one table max?

[TLK]

yep, it can spill over to another table....

[GoldenEagle]

I would be in, but have no money.

[Vince]

I'm with GE. I was looking forward to doing this, and my car's CV Joints had to go out this week. :(

I've got nothing better to do, so I might watch.

[Radii]

registered, full table!

[MJ4H]

I would play but all my money is in party poker now. i think i only have $6 at stars :(

[SirFozzie]

Matt.. see if you can trade money with someone on Party.. you send them the money on PP, they send you the money on Stars

[MJ4H]

Matt.. see if you can trade money with someone on Party.. you send them the money on PP, they send you the money on Stars

Nah minimum on party is 50 and im not going to do that much. Ill just sit this one out.

[RGunner]

If u need 5 bucks to play Matt I can xfer it to you, won a 7 card stud tourney last night for about a thousand bucks so its no biggie just let me know your name and such...I'm registered by the way but on a crappy computer so it might make me play slow lol.

[MJ4H]

K I go by Gorgonian on stars. I have $6.19 so Id need $5. If you want to do that Ill be happy to pay it back asap.

[cthomer5000]

If you change your mind Matt, I'd gladly do a money swap on the two sites.

[RGunner]

K it should be sent soon Matt just sent it thru support, pay it back whenever, not a big deal if you cant, glad to help get more people in this thing, means more money for the winner (me) haha

[MJ4H]

got it. tx

[korme]

i want to put money on an account. i usually only play at AP. is Poker Stars better?

[cthomer5000]

Stars is definitely a better site than AP. I can't stand AP's software, although it has gotten better in the last few months.

[apoc]

Im a HT FOFCer so I hope you guys dont mind me playing but Im in :)

[cthomer5000]

hattricker's are like the adopted children of FOFC. ;)

[korme]

when do you guys play? i'd like to watch if i'm still home.

[sabotai]

It starts at 9pm EST

[cthomer5000]

9PM Eastern

[Logan]

I knew this was going to happen.

Really was looking forward to this, but I had to unregister as something came up. Glad that my leaving will still allow for a full table, plus...

Good luck guys, and I'm sorry I'm not able to contribute my $10 to the eventual winner :).

[cthomer5000]

Man, i'm having a great time watching Phil Hellmuth's table in the current WCOOP event. He's actually responding to the observer chat and has said a number of funny things.

It's some nice entertainment between my own hands in ring hames.

[TLK]

I don't care what anyone says about him.... he's been a hell of a sport today, from what I've seen

[rockboy70]

I am in. Lurked around here for years, but not much of a poster. Hope that's OK.

[TLK]

12 in.... still an hour to register....

[SirFozzie]

We are pocket rockets and we are seven-deuce off suit. We play monster hands, we play pocket pairs, we play the occasional pet hand for fun. We make huge bluffs. We call huge bluffs. We post a lot or a little... We laugh, we curse, but mostly we just shuffle up and deal.

We are FOFC Poker.

[RGunner]

Im psyched for this, I sent GE 11 bucks to play too, but he hasnt signed up i don't think and is not responding to my messages on AIM so i dunno whats up with that, but good luck everyone

[GoldenEagle]

I am in, thanks kev.

[TLK]

Gunner's starting his own "crew" :)

[RPI-Fan]

I'm a maybe.

[Comey]

I wish I could play. However, I am stuck for another few weeks until I start work again, and cannot deposit any dough.

Good luck all. Maybe I'll stop in and watch a little bit. Comey11 is my name...hopefully I can chat a little bit (if there's an AIM chat, my AIM is Super Comey).

-John

[SirFozzie]

There's 3 $100/200 Limit tables running. Just saw a 3K pot. Sick. Sick Sick Sick. I love it

[panerd]

Am I a well enough known name around here to do the $50 trade thing? Is there anyway that I can just trade $10 on each site. I really prefer to not have a significant amount of money at both sites. I have $96 on party poker, is that enough to do the trade?

[TLK]

dood-

watch the Hellmuth table w/ all the kool kidz


:)

[cartman]

T minus 45 minutes to go.

Looks like we're gonna have a good turnout tonight!

[GoldenEagle]

Who is rockboy from Houston?

[Comey]

Can't watch Hellmuth anymore. He just got busted by pocket 10s.

[panerd]

Just downloaded Pokerstars software and set up account. I am waiting in the FOFC lobby. However I don't have any way of depositing funds except for the trade thing. Anyone want to trade pokerstars for partypoker. After I win the tournament I promise to trade back! :)

[Cuckoo]

I'd help you if I could panerd, but I had a rough day yesterday, and the wife won't give me anymore money. :)

[Cuckoo]

Who is rockboy from Houston?

He's that guy above - says he's an FOFC lurker.

[SirFozzie]

I don't play on Party. Sorry.

[cthomer5000]

panerd - i'll trade if you want

you want to send to me first at partypoker?

50 is the minimum person-to-person there, so we can do $50 at each site.

[panerd]

I really don't any have a problem with the money thing. I just am not familiar with any of the depositing companies and my credit card companies will not deposit in a online poker account. When I made my deposit at Partypoker thru some Europian Visa I got a confirmation phone call at 3AM from some lady in India. Let's just say the girlfriend isn't too fond of the online poker thing.

[panerd]

panerd - i'll trade if you want

you want to send to me first at partypoker?

50 is the minimum person-to-person there, so we can do $50 at each site.

Yeah, I will send to you first. Do you mind if I make the $10 back at Pokerstars if we trade back? I kind of like Party Poker and consider it my "home court". What is your ID at Party Poker?

[cthomer5000]

Yeah, I will send to you first. Do you mind if I make the $10 back at Pokerstars if we trade back? I kind of like Party Poker and consider it my "home court". What is your ID at Party Poker?
cthomer5000

Yeah, we can trade back at the end of the night if you still have 50+ at Stars.

[Pumpy Tudors]

If PokerStars had a minimum deposit of $25 or $30, I'd be in, but $50 is too much for me to put in to that site. If it's possible for me to go in and watch, though, I might do that.

[panerd]

And what menu do I use to send $?

[SirFozzie]

In Pokerstars, under the requests.. Transfer funds menu

[Pumpy Tudors]

You know what? I'm getting more and more temped to go ahead and put the $50 in anyway... the plot thickens.

[TLK]

33 minutes......



Do It.....

[cthomer5000]

And what menu do I use to send $?
Hmmm, I can't seem to find it myself. Did they remove it or am I just going crazy?

[TLK]

(not a) dola.....

I wish ABC would make one of these considering he sets them up for us....

[Vince]

I was about to do it anyways also...then I realized I'm supposed to go out to dinner with the girlfriend, and she'd kill me (I've already blown off two 'dates' because of live poker with my buddies).

[Pumpy Tudors]

Well, I said I could do $30, and really, I can afford an extra $20. I'll be in if Firepay doesn't crap out on me.

[SirFozzie]

wow. Lots of new players. Looks like I'm paying out tonight. (IM me or whatever to get the $2 transfers after the tourney)

[Cuckoo]

wow. Lots of new players. Looks like I'm paying out tonight. (IM me or whatever to get the $2 transfers after the tourney)

Yeah, I need it too after the weekend I had... :D

[GoldenEagle]

Just won a big pot at Party Poker, so lets hope that is a sign of things to come.

[sabotai]

Actually, I'm going to hope it's not, for my sake. :)

[cthomer5000]

And what menu do I use to send $?
ok, go to the website and login under the "my account" section. Inter-account transfers are the 2nd item in the options that come up.

[panerd]

Anyone know how to transfer money at Partypoker?

[Radii]

up to 14, i'm impressed!

[cthomer5000]

Anyone know how to transfer money at Partypoker?see my post above - go to their website.

edit - and I think you need my real name, so I'll PM it to you.

[Cuckoo]

Anyone know how to transfer money at Partypoker?

Go to the My Account page, and it's the second option down (interaccount transfer).

[panerd]

No dice. I only have $90 and it says I need at least $100 to transfer $50. I appreciate you willingness to help me out though. Looks like I am out of luck on this one. I don't think my credit card company apporves of Neteller and I am not interested in the direct bank account link over the internet. Thanks again Cthomer!

[cthomer5000]

bleh. sorry!

I had the exact same problem about a week or so ago, but I just went ahead and deposited up to $100. I understand how you wouldn't want to do that, though.

[panerd]

Oh well. What do you guys use to deposit with anyways? All of the pokerstars comapanies refuse my credit cards! You surly aren't attached by your bank account are you?

[cthomer5000]

Neteller.

[panerd]

Neteller takes your credit card? All of mine are MBNA America and I guess they think they are "protecting me" by not allowing transactions!

[Cuckoo]

Neteller.

Neteller wouldn't accept my credit cards either. I'm just too gun shy to give out my bank account info online.

[cthomer5000]

Neteller takes your credit card? All of mine are MBNA America and I guess they think they are "protecting me" by not allowing transactions!
Neteller, bank account.

I'm conducted about 8 billion transactions online and never had one security issue. I guess I'm just not as paranoid as most people.

[panerd]

I think I will watch a little. Unfortunatly I am used to devices like the WPT card cam so I am not sure how interesting not seeing the cards will be. I will be pulling for CThomer due to his genorousity earlier.

[Radii]

neteller, bank account. It happens to be a secondary account now with not nearly as much money in it, but for a year+ it was my primary bank acct. No problems, no worries/fears.

[Pumpy Tudors]

I use Firepay with my bank account. Why Firepay and not Netteller? I have absolutely no idea. I can't remember the impetus for choosing Firepay, but it's gone well.

[sabotai]

5 minutes until go time...

15 minutes before I'm looking for something else to do for the night. :D

[cartman]

tables are about to be seated. Strap yourselves in boys, it's gonna be a fun ride!

[sabotai]

I use FirePay(bank account) as well.

Ok.. guys.. if you get a key hand, an all-in, or a really significant pot, get a Hand History, I'm thinking of doing a little project book on this one.

[panerd]

I will keep a running commentary on who has the gayest logo.

[TLK]

late registration still out there....

[cthomer5000]

so who's in the lead for gayest logo? I have to imagine I'm at least in the discussion...

[panerd]

I screwed something up and when I relogged in I just have names. It is taking a while to get used to the format. It is real bright and colorful, not like Partypoker at all.

[cartman]

First blood drawn

[TLK]

apoc vs. Ragone for this one....

[Logan]

I'm really mad I had to run out. Just observing now and its looking like a ton of fun. Anyone up for a late-night tourney? :)

[sabotai]

That's ok.. I hear putting a pair of fives on your door keeps out the poker monster :D

No, doing that REALLY PISSES IT OFF!!! :D

[rockboy70]

Woohoo, can't believe I made it to the money. It was loads of fun.

[Cuckoo]

It's holding for you apoc.

[TLK]

what the hell?

[Cuckoo]

Okay, now it's not holding

[Cuckoo]

But he won that hand, and is now holding again.

[apoc]

i cant get a connection to it boooooo

[apoc]

ok i rebooted the trace looks good so i have no idea whats going on :( This sucks big time

[apoc]

i cant establish a connection prolly cause the servers are overloads from the damn WCooP railbirds or something. Ill keep trying but it may be beating a dead horse.

[apoc]

so um am i winning? ;)

[Cuckoo]

It's on break

It says tournament has been paused. They're trying to fix technical issues

[apoc]

well thats good news at least I hope its gets fixed soon

[Cuckoo]

He's back in.

[apoc]

congrats to drag on winning :) hand that killed me was i flopped the nut straight and slowplayed it he caught up with running 4s to make a fullhouse and i had very few chips left after that :) Well played.

[Ragone]

thanks apoc.. that longish break when pokerstars was having problems kinda helped me clear my head a bit.. just glad i didn't win with stars forcing you all in

[korme]

congrats guys. had a little poker tourney tonight at my hosue so i missed this. i really hope i can put some money in and show you guys the ropes before i ehad off to college..
