We're calling you all out

For about a year I've been running a poker game for XIII- and previously USYSC for ISK after a couple of guys were talking about how good they thought they were.

I've been threatening the regulars that I'll open up the table to other corporations.

So here it is; I'm throwing out an open invite to the WH community - and just the WH community for now. If any of you fellas think you would be up for for an inter-corp poker tournament, get in contact with myself and I'll let you know the details. You don't have to be amazingly good - or even know the rules (some of our players don't).

-Tournament will use a 3rd party program - there is registration, but no fee involved.

******************************************************************************************************

Update: Over 3bil paid out at the last tournament

Next tournament:

-Saturday 11th July @ 2030 utc (1930 eve)

-200mil buy-in

-ISK to Top Three finishers

Would love to be involved, but that's a little early. Good luck, have fun, and let me know if you schedule anything after either 0100 eve time or a weekend.

Thanks for organizing this anyway though. Always nice to build community.

Oh, and nice KB btw.

Yeah, well, it's just like my opinion, man.

I have a lot of ISK and I'm very bad at poker.
One of those things was a lie.

What constitutes 'WH community'? Will you turn those away not deemed to be part of the 'WH community'?

For the inter-corp tournaments, yes. At this point, I'm not ruling out opening it to the wider eve community or even individual at a later date. In fact, if this small, manageable expansion is a success, that may well be the plan.

Can't you ******* let ANYTHING not turn into an E-peen measuring contest? For fucks sake. Shut your trap for once and let the man run his poker tournament.

If I get PL to come and populate your poker game, will you make a thread on reddit and cry about it?

I think you need to work on relaying your Intel to people. If we had known, you were calling PL we would have tackled an additional Nyx and probably a few carriers. That might be the reason we were mad at you. But then again what do I know. I am just a random guy.

Monez Monez Monez !!! give me all your monez!!! lots and lots of monez!!!

Im gonna go cool hand luke on all your asses!

Im gonna be like Dustin Hoffman in the rain man... minus the retardation.

Your gonna be caught with your pants down, bent over in a compromising position, possibly trying to pick up the soap you just dropped.

Then ...right in that moment where you are at your most vulnerable,, im gonna go all in!! Im gonna maintain hole control for as long as possible, until a small tear runs down your cheek as you come to the self realisation that you just got content .... just maybe not the content you desired.


On a further note I would like to enquire as to what day this tournament will run on? How much will the buy in be etc etc.
