    Would anyone be interested in a weekly tournament on Full Tilt Poker? I choose there because that is my favorite site to play on. Check out the website, or try the software for free here: http://www.fulltiltpoker.com

    The downside for some is it will not be free. The game will cost 11 bucks. Full Tilt has a $50 minimum deposit, so you will be in for 50 bucks, but that buys you into 4 tournaments, with a few bucks left over for small games. 15 players would pay about 80, 50 and 30 to the top 3, for example.

    Full Tilt also offers plenty of free games so your not stuck there always spending money!

    If you would be interested, please reply to this, Full Tilt needs to know the interest before they will go further and consider setting it up. They asked me to tell them # of players expected and prize structure, which I dont know yet.

    Im sure Jim would be willing with me to kick in a few bucks if needed to make this happen.

    P.S My nickname is MajorGeek if you want to play me online sometime.

    You know I will be there! And someone might even set up a paypal and do $11 transfers for $12 or something. Gotta think of the small guy.

    And remember, the payouts would only grow with more and more players.

    Do you know how many people are in there that are NOT the legal age yet? Quite a few.

    Unless you win big, they should leave you alone.

    *giggles rather childishly* When I first read this, my eyes/brain missed out the "L" in tilt. :eek:

    Time for this battered Brit to turn in to bed, I think. :rolleyes: Silly girl..

    I can't afford to gamble with my money, it's not a toy, it's food! ;)

    I play on truepoker.com

    Is this similar? DO they take PayPal? Paypal said they were not going to work with gambling sites.... I am quite interested.

    I USED to play at TruePoker myself. I like fulltiltpoker better.

    Paypal/Ebay is against using their services for any 'gaming' at all. But FTP should be able to accept a credit/debit card.

    Visa, MC, Neteller, etc. Not looking good interest wise though.

    Ah, but then I would get caught by the wife. PayPal she doesn't question. I will download it this weekend and give it a whirl.

    Take a look at Holdempoker.com
    Maybe you could set up something similar?
    I couldn't get a connection just now, but I've been playing there for a few months. It's free and no download.

    ill look. I actually play UltimateBet.com now more then anywhere else. I think a weekly tourney would rock, but a lot more people would play for free or a couple bucks and I cant blame them.

    As far as "too bad it wasnt my favorite site" I play on 5 or 6 sites and suggest others do too, no one site has it all.
