@Chasetheriver I would love to be added to the league please and thank you for all of your efforts.
I accidentally used chips from my bankroll instead of the tickets we were given to register for tournament: 6433187. Is there any way I could get these chips back?
Thank you Rob
@Spgodog Hi, You are already in the League and I see you have played.
@Str8tplayer Added to the League and tickets issued.
Done
Hi @ChicagoSerbs as @southwestmba said,
https://www.replaypoker.com/tournaments/6433174
At the Heads up stage, your Bounty was 131,813 and Zabby4Aces was 142,500.
71,250 is half of the Bounty of Zabby4Aces. Awarded in 2 steps, since one is Bounty at the time and one is after the end of the tournament.
131,813 is your own bounty paid to self.
103,312 is the Bounties you collected as you knocked players out. 131,813 - original Bounty of 28,500 = 103,313*.
*Rounded up, You must have knocked out an odd value Bounty.
To confuse matters slightly, there was a No Show and Replay kept this players Bounty because nobody actually knocked them out.
The numbers balance in that chips taken as entries were distributed in prizes, with 28,500 left over.
We presently call one of the 71,250 payouts and the 131,813 payout as ‘first place bounty’
The other 71,250 Bounty and the other Bounties are both called ‘bounty for tournament’
I will ask for these to be defined better.
Hopefully the whole 142,500 could be awarded in one payment and called something different to ‘first place bounty’.
Im a Nit and this is usually my strategy.
Interestingly, in the tournament dissected a little for ChicagoSerbs https://www.replaypoker.com/tournaments/6433174, 4th through 7th place finishers did not earn any Bounties.
They managed to place themselves in an end game where other players had substantial Bounties. They were probably in a position where they had low chips though.
Is the best strategy to sit tight or play fast in a PKO? When I switch up the Bounty percentages, maybe it depends?
what do you all think about adding the bounty percentage to the tournament panel (it is already in the tournament lobby) :
It already shows in the individual Tournament Lobby of registering and running, but yes, I agree this a good idea to show it in the main Lobby too
Another one for the punch list: … any thoughts about putting together an entry in the FAQ in the help section about the PKO tournaments for when this gets up and running?
This will happen,
post #95 in this thread will be the bones of that
On to the next stage.
Forthcoming games in The Test League will be alternating omaha and omaha Hi/Lo. Initially 6 or 9 max, but thereafter 8 max.
The games will run for at least though to the end of Monday, and most likely beyond, with some updates.
Thanks again for playing.
Consider simply naming the bounty percentage as part of the game’s title, i.e., “PKO Beta Test 50/50.” No technical changes needed.
would like to be considered for holdem test
It’s very fun @roofinguy! Welcome and good luck!!
Enrolled and tickets provided.
Naming needs some consideration.
Agreed though, if / when we run some Beta non 50/50 I will make sure it is clear.
Is the Holdem testing done now ?
ill give it a go if needed
How can we help sign up more volunteers?
