NPP Roll Call

Fourteen years this game has rolled on. In order to keep it moving on, we need players added for next year. They can be in the form of like 6 more part-timers or 2 more full timers. But that is about what we need.

Here are the number of FULL TIME NPP Players. The Core!
1. Beerhog
2. Herbavor
3. Larry P.
4. Thai Food
5. 7Forty7
6. Nik Faldo

Part timers or new arrivals:
7. ToJo
8. Gridlock
9. The Wall
10. CigarJohn
11. Fourputt
12. Matchy (new)
13. Boother (possible)
14. Mark the Shark (possible)

If you have a core of eight players and eight part-timers, you should always have a full table for the game. On average two regulars will have to miss and two PT's will show up to fill the game.

What hurts NPP is that even though our FT's are solid, our PT pool is quite lame. As in Brokeback Mt. lame. Like in "They play for the pink team lame." We need to add alot more PT's or a few more FT's.

Like a college football coach, I like to stack my bench of starters and reserves. You never have such a thing as too many players. An interesting phenomenon occurs. A packed game keeps the game packed. Nobody wants to miss out on the action. Like a crowded restaurant has a line out the door. Where a game low on players can't keep the momentum going, like a restaurant without customers looks lousy.

So get out there and recruit.

Geez some of you guys are tough to figure out (see above). I'm not calling myself a FT yet but I would certainly like to come back, hopefully in Dec.
BTW I will post here too, anyone down for an extra pokerstars tourney over the long weekend?
Matchy the PT

Matchy, you are a full timer if you say you are a full timer. I didn't want to put you on the FT list if you did not want to be there.

Ignore the postings of one very immature and sick ex-player.

I'd gladly be a PT but with Beerhog and Herbavor knocking me out early it is costing me too much in chips and gas money.

Matchy, there doesn't seem to be the volume there for our private game.

Luckily for you - you are still a registered player at the two best games in world - NPP and Poker Stars!

Poker Stars has action up the ying yang. Cruise around that lobby and find what you want.

Some of you may not know it, but you can customize your Poker Stars table with different themes.

On the main menu go to 'View' then Themes.
