lol, nobody likes Americans...

nah, we like all of you, we just have problems with drunk englishmen, and with americans that somehow are convinced that dutch people don't speak english... (they talk about people that are right beside them in a very loud voice... doesnt work)

I need a girlfriend who loves me for my money... and is pretty bad with math.

that sounds about right. most americans are arrogant and inconsiderate. which i find annoying on a daily basis.

What matters most is how well you walk through the fire.

Glad to hear you are in Vic.

Had a thought....could this thing be turned into a deep stack? Stack size 5K. Blinds increase every 30 mins so late come comers would only see 15-20 blinds in the first couple hours.

I am playing one now and we have only been dealt 55 hands in the first hour. About 2.5 orbits per blind level.
At that pace, late arrivals would only be down a couple hundred.

Just a thought.

No one has any thoughts on this? If its too late for this one, maybe we could set the next up as a deep stack.

Since the tourney is already in the list, I don't think you can change anything.

Also, many players that usually play higher buyins don't want a deepstack tourney for low buyin, it would just be too low a value for the time you need.

They do require a bit of time. The one I'm in now is 2 hours old and we have only lost about half of the 153 that started. Im holding my own though, 5th or 6th in chips with about 70 still in

Low value for the money but bigger value for fun... As most of us are loosing players, hell to the money and pump up the fun... Just a thought.

Do you speak Dutch? If not, then of course the ones you spoke to spoke English. If they didn't, they wouldn't be speaking to you.
