The Boother Invitational is a great night of poker!
One consistent for heads-up at final tables, whether it is on-line or on the actual felt - Boother
Boother and me Tuesday Internet - Boother wins.
Rounder and Boother Saturday in the Big Game and Rownder wins.
A great night of poker and a good bunch of mopes at the tables. The ring game during and after the tournament was alive and kicking.
I read Matchy's comment on the last post:
"What buy-ins do you guys prefer at tournaments? I know small buy-ins lead to all-ins every hand, but I don't need extra $ tagged on to a buy-in to get poker enjoyment. I am thinking of the loss rather than what I could win."
Ouch. Put me in Matchy's golf cart. And it is not a financial concern, but for some reason (age?), I have grown increasingly risk adverse - and that has killed my game.
I will still be in there because I love the competition - and the agony of defeat apparently.
But I now see myself as dead money, rather than a player.

100 is reasonable. unless you dont have the players who are willing to shell it out. then you need to reduce the buy in. we had 21 last night i think. thats a pretty good turn out for a 100 game. either way im showing up. or did i?

I certainly enjoy the level of competition at a higher buy-in level. However, a poker game at my place just isn't the same without Chesky!!! And by no means Chesky, does that mean you can't play. In fact, I think you play better than you give yourself credit for!! You could certainly have hung with the dudes that showed up on Sat.
I was kinda Jones'en for a bigger game, that's why I selected the C note buy-in.
Maybe a $75 buy-in could strike a happy median... any thoughts???

$100 is by no means unreasonable, and I am an incredible slouch. Honestly the reason I did not show was not the c-note, I was beat after drinking plenty fri. night and getting uo and going to work sat. morning. I know that if I am not down for a late night marathon I won't play up to par and I was snoozin' by 9:45. Not to mention that Blue Moon beer really got things movin' if you know what I mean, it was a point and shoot situation LOL. I was just wondering how you guys felt in general about buy-ins is all. My bottom line is $20 to $50 is perfect, happy if I cash and not too bummed if I crash.

I'm willing to play $100 if chicks are allowed to play. (stupid white lake chauvinist asses)
$100 must be fine with the crowd you had Boother. It's a great game!
$20 is about right.
