Into Poker?

Question

A couple of colleagues and I have been talking about setting up a poker tournament in our area. The whole idea is at the earliest stage and I was curious to know how many of you (18 and over) would find this of interest.

The top prize could be as much as £10,000 with a 'buy-in' of just c.£150, with incremental cash prizes ranging from £250 - £5,000. The tournament would be held over an 11 week period with a all winners of the preliminaries going through to the 'Final Table' for a chance to win the top prize.

I love poker but can't get down with playing on the internet. I don't think you can beat sitting around a table 'live' with 9 other players with all the banter etc.

I'd love to know what you all think. Thanks for taking the time!

Answer 1

I would definatly join,  love pocker and there not many tournament where i live, i think if you set it up, the players will come!

And im not bluffin.. lol :)

Answer 2

I think £150 is a little high for a first tournament. Perhaps £50 would attract more people, then increase after that so you know you will have some people interested.

Answer 3

i love poker an all but i wouldnt bet that much money
