TAM7 Poker Tourney

6pm it is!

I'll confirm with the poker dude.

Is someone maintaining a proper calendar?
 
6PM? I thought it was 5pm - at any rate I'll be there before 6pm.

Jeff's post refers to the Welcome cocktail party. We've discovered that event runs 5-6pm, so we're starting poker at 6pm, so you can go to the welcome party for most of the hour, then come play poker!

So the idea is that we get smashed on Grasshoppers and Wallbangers before heading off to play poker?

Sounds like an excellent idea.
 
I'm definitely in, i have a small prize, which may interest some people, to give away as a bounty. Given that i will be playing poker in Vegas for most of the previous week, i intend to wipe the floor with you guys anyway, so the prize may go unclaimed :)

Heheheheheh - I'll stick with soft drinks and beat everyone at the tourny... ;)
 
Is there still room? I've can afford to contribute $50 to whoever among you is the ultimate winner. And if it doesn't conflict with the reception, that's perfect.

So far, we seem to have lots of room left. Show up with money, and I seriously doubt we'll turn you away!
 
Cross-posting this to the appropriate thread! Come One, Come All, to see the Great Hokulele/Horatius Smack Down, Drag Out Pokerama!

You, Yes, You! Might Even WIN BEER!!!!!



Hokulele said:
Guttersluts!




Since it will be hot and dry in Las Vegas, I am thinking something lagery or European-style pilsnerish would be nice. Thanks!

Hey, does anyone else want to be a Gutterslut? There are still two openings.




Or you could make them your bounty for the Poker Tourney and I can win them from you. :cool:

Hmm, Horatius, would you be interested in a side bet? If I am knocked out before you, you win and vice versa. You can put up a six of your beer, and I can put up whatever thingy from Hawai'i you are interested in (coffee, mac nuts, real pineapple, whatever). Maybe this should be in the Poker thread.

Horatius said:
Well, I've already ordered your the NWO Kitty mouse pad, so that's my bounty.






Or, I could just let you drink them during the tournament, so I don't lose in the first place.....


No idea what I'd like from Hawaii, though. I don't drink coffee, or eat mac nuts, and I suspect a pineapple wouldn't travel so well....Any other suggestions?

Hokulele said:
The dried pineapple travels very well, and the whole pineapples travel rather well, but you might have a problem getting into them. What sort of things do you want/need and does this constitute an acceptance of the side bet?

Horatius said:
Why don't we go with a straight up beer swap? From looking around, this one:

http://tastyisland.wordpress.com/2008/01/10/primo-beer-returns-to-the-islands/

sounds like something I'd try, but I'm open to suggestions.

Oh, and yes, you're on.


Although I may also offer the beer as a bounty to anyone who can knock you out before me. I'd still be out the beer, but I could then brag about my Evil Ways. ;)

Hokulele said:
Primo isn't bad, but I tend to prefer these.

Let me know if you would like to stick with the Primo or try something a little more adventurous.

And I like your twist on the Evilness. If I outlast you, the beer goes to he/she who knocks you out (unless they do not like beer, in which case I get to drink it!).

Should we cross post this in the Tourney thread to drum up some excitement?

Horatius said:
Actually, the bikini blonde lager looks good, just for the cans!

I'll try an adventurous beer for one or two cans, but if I'm drinking 6, I like something a bit lighter, usually. Do they sell mixed sixes? Something like that would be a hit at the Skepchick party, I'd expect.

And yes, we should cross-post this. Maybe we can get some others into grudge matches!

Hokulele said:
Yep, they do sell those, so I'll bring a mixed six (2 each of the Bikini Blonde lager, Big Swell IPA, and CocoNut Porter). It will have to go in my check-in bag, as stupid, stupid TSA doesn't allow liquids in my carry-on, so shaking may be a problem. If karma were real, the terrorists who attempted the liquid bomb would be very, very thirsty right about now.

If you would rather take the left-overs to the Skepchick party, feel free. I won't be there, as I have another thing I have to attend in San Diego that night.

ETA: I'll let you do the cross-posting. I am going to have to sign off here very soon.

So there you have it folks! I've got a bounty on my head, and so does she! One of us walks away with the other's beer, and one of you might walk away with ours!


And, we invite you to put a bounty on someone else's head!

From my count in the Unofficial Events thread, we have 14 Yes and 4 Maybe.

I told Joe the Poker Guy that we'd need room for 30. I'd like to at least approach that :) If any of you know JREFs coming that aren't on the forums that might want to play, please send them on.

You can add my husband and I to the Yes pile :)
 
Horatius said:
Surely, in your 6 posts here, you're formed a grudge, right? Offer up a Grudge Match!

Otherwise, Hokulele and I will spend all evening berating the rest of you!

That went right over my head...I have no idea what you're talking about, sorry!
 
To get in the spirit, I have just now decided I have a grudge against... let's see... KarlG!

You are going down, KarlG. I will beat you with the bounty I am going to win from Horatius.
