    Gonna be a while before regular poker tourneys return - we cool?

    22 days. The poker part of the SBR gambling triathlon will begin Jan 7th. I think we are waiting until after the Bowl contest starts to announce the schedule for some reason. Spread out the hype or something. There will be some tourneys sprinkled in between now and then but this seems like poker off season around here.

    Good idea. Ring games are jamming now that people have some big poker rollovers to complete. Might as well take some time to think out future formats.

    GL in the Bowl Contest, John. Still not sure if I'm in. I'm scurrrred.

    Times are tough with Obama winning and all. I just don't know.

    I'd probably login on XMas to check though because I heard that if there is a gift its only for those who login on Dec 25th.

    I like it. I'm in Vegas until the 8th for Bowl Season, don't enjoy playing SBR poker as much when I'm out there. Perfect timing John

    Next is the SBR Gambling Triathlon. Yes, the format will be somewhat similar. There will be 5 daily tourneys and a big tourney at the end with the top 100 earning "Tri points" and fabulous prizes.

    The World Ryder Cup poker tourney will start after the Triathlon wraps up in April.

    Also guys, you can check out the SBR Poker homepage to see the holiday schedule. Hopefully it holds you over until the regular schedule resumes.

    Sounds good.

    Like Tatddy said, the ring games are full now because of the generous Poker Points giving out in the Championship. One thing though: Can we keep the Omaha tables open until the new tournament series starts?

    Gumm I'll check with Lou but I see no reason why we can't.

    TT we will have some here and there and on weekends. That's the best we can do until the 7th.
