Worst poker tournies ever!!!!
They are months behind with standings!!!!!
I won a beer stein 2 months ago and haven't heard a thing about it!!

I was waiting for someone to post a Poker thread.

There are lots of players who did not earn the points they got for placing in the tourney. When I say earn I mean PLAYing poker. Signing up and not playing then hoping you get top 10 isn't a hard thing to do, cause others are ACTUALLY PLAYING POKER.
I'd like to see a show of HANDS of those you signed up but didn't play, there are quite a few and some quite regular players.
BOTTOM LINE, IF YOU SIGN UP AND DON"T PLAY AND FINISH TOP TEN, you should lose the POINTS for that TOURNEY and any other TOURNEY you signed up for and didn't play. But I doubt those who finished top ten and didn't play will come forward and say so. But Xaldin should be able to tell who came in late and who didn'y play at all.
Even those who came in late(I don't mean 5 or 10 minutes, I mean coming in when most of the field is eliminated) don't deserve the spot. Gotta start the game/tourney to finish it.
SO, come on all you honest guys, lets see who comes forward to say they don't deserve the points they got in the last 3 or 4 games because they either came in real late or didn't play at all.
Cause there isn't a Poker Tournament that would let a player come in after half of the players are eliminated. Why this Tourney lets that happen is beyond me.

About the administration of the Tourney, imagine if the BCS/Coaches poll was only published at the end of the Playing Season and not updated after each weekend, DOH.

but has already updated that he will for sure make all current standings and everything updated soon.

tourney starts at 10pm . for those of us who work steady afternoons , makes it difficult at times to play at startime. i myself dont get home usually till 10:20. a few times i didnt make it till 10:45. to no fault of my own. didnt make a difference i ended up losing anyway. im pretty regular on playing the tourney , i think i missed a few games. i enjoy playing with everyone. it seems we all get a chance to win & that makes it fun for everyone.!
highest i placed in tourney was 2nd place. im still waiting for my prize as well. from over 5 weeks ago
11pm would be ideal startime for tourneys. i usually play everynite at another poker site at that time and never miss. if the admin of the tourney would like to change the time to accomodate me that would be awesome.

p.s. the Ante usually takes care of things if people are just sitting anyway in any poker tournament. if they sit too long they run out of cash fast.
