FIVE ACES POKER TOUR
FORMAT
This is how the FIVE ACES POKER TOUR will work. There will be 10 'touring' members of the tour. These 10 'touring' members will each pay a $20 buy in at the beginning of the season.
There will be one tour stop for each month from September 2006 to April 2007- that's 8 total.
Each stop will be at a different touring members house, or 'venue.' Each month the winner will receive 15 points, 10 for second, 5 for 3rd, and 2 points for attending. The point leader at the end of 8 games will win the big money. (Payouts are explained below).
Here is what will make this tour work: Every month, there will be a $5 per player buy in. This pot, minus 20% will go to the player who wins the game that night.
If in any given month, there are 'non-touring' players at the game, they can play and win the pot that night, but 20% of the pot still goes to the final pot to be awarded to the point champion at the tours' end.
Only 'touring' players can win points. The games are not exclusive to 'touring' players, but 'touring' players get a seat over anyone else.
Depending on where we play there could presumably be more than 10 in the game if there was room. 2 tables would be necessary. (I have rules in mind, but will wait until there are people in to help with the details.)
DETAILS BEING WORKED OUT
Rules... Texas Hold'em, Blinds raised every 15/20 mins. If there are 2 tables, they will join when there are 3 players at each table. Seats will be determined randomly....
