    Unfortunately, scumbags will scumbag. SO, it's incumbent upon SBR to take the bull by the horns here (uh, Hello Doug?... Bueller???) and rectify this. The solution(s) have already been presented to them. Do the right thing here, SBR.

    NOW... let me defuse right now the first numbnut that's gonna come in and tell me "I got too much time on my hands tracking this, mind your own business yadda yadda bullshit...

    1) Other peeps are tracking this also... we're just communicating so all the info is known. I have no problems posting that info.

    2) If you wanna get on my case for trying to PROMOTE FAIRNESS FOR ALL... bring it, assholio... just be ready to throw down.

    none of this should have happened. no-one has any LOGIC or COMMON SENSE anymore. for whatever tech
    issue sbr could not post the regular schedule of 5 tourneys on thursday -- they only did 3. so COMMON SENSE and LOGIC dictates that they don't count these 3 tourneys for the leaderboard, since everyone did not have the same (regular) opportunity to play. and today we go about playing again as usual !
    no polls needed , no added tourneys needed (with 2000 chips) , no bul shit .

    WHAT IS IT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND???

    Hey numbnut... educate yourself on the matter. Doug (uh, poker mod, remember him?) has stated -- naively -- that players should just play a total of TWO TOTAL for Thurs & Fri.
    Got it?

    It's about fairness for all in a poker series w/ a 5k 1st place prize. The amount is really irrelevant, tho... and you should know that as a supposed adult but by the comments in the rest of your post I'm not surprised you don't.

    1. One account per household. Players who operate multiple accounts or are otherwise restricted from the forum during the qualification period may lose their eligibility at the discretion of SBR.
    2. Must be an SBR Pro by December 1 to receive satellite or championship password the next month. Must maintain SBR Pro status.
    3. 40 players max per daily tournament, 11 points entry fee for all users. Limit of one per day.
    hopefully SBR will disqualify all those who played more than 1 tourney / day for breaking the rules

    should either be limited to one tournament per day as usual or just not count thursday/friday

    I'm only playing 1 today, not that it matters, because I've been doom switched for months.

    Nothing, actually.

    As you see above ^^, I'm already on record as saying Thurs & Fri's tourney's shouldn't count... BUT, being the only thing that matters is WHAT SBR SAYS -- and b/c SBR's stance, to date, is that the tourneys WILL count -- your rationalizations for exploiting the situation fall on deaf ears.

    Sure would be nice to hear from our *cough cough" poker mod.

    Get ON THIS, Douglas.

    *UPDATE: ("spider" has already played in 3 total, played yesterday and 2 so far already, AND "dare" played Thurs as well, this morning and signed up for 2 more this afternoon so he's obviously looking for at least a 4-bagger if not more)
    *zwoeins played in 11am and is already signed up for the 3 & 4 time slots. Not sure if he played yesterday as well, yet.
    *Adding deadphish - played last night 11pm -- signed up for 4pm and 9 pm

    I can't improve on daner's take so I'll just repeat it:


    note to biteme , even though i was registered for the 10am , due to tech issues i guess , my table would not open up, and when i tried to login again i was already booted out without playing a single hand . so i played in the 11am tourney.

    Not worth reading past this. ^^

    Hey numbnut... you do realize peeps w/ a brain can actually track poker stats here. You know, total pts won from poker, shit like that and all kinds of other info all around you? Hello?

    Oh wait... NO... you're clueless once again... same as you were when you entered this thread.

    Stop embarrassing yourself, numbnut.

    Whatever style I play (tight aggressive) & whatever tourney's I play appear to be working much better than you, as leaderboards & our ROI will indicate.

    Ah, INCORRECT.

    One would think that a lawyer would have better reading comprehension skills; Let me help.

    Here's what Douglas actually said, and I'll highlight the important stuff so you'll hopefully get it this time:

    Colors, bigger fonts, bolded, underlined... I'm pretty confident you can get it this time.

    we need a clarification

    b/c it also said if you got screwed out of the early trny's yesterday....... for the reason u said about stacked trny's being unfair (and thus why ur pussy ass waited til today), it implied we could ALL play two today, and said EVERYONE HAS THE SAME OPP TO PLAY TWO TODAY....... not mentioning any limitation

    it implied all loaded trnys yesterday screwed the members that chose to play in them, such that the entire field could play two today, not just those who didn't play yesterday

    also, the "fine print" one trny per day rule in the promo rules WAS EXPRESSLY LIFTED BY SBR YESTERDAY, SO IT IMPOSES NO BARRIER TO PLAYING TWO TODAY

    I see four players that played more than one tourney today. Playersonly69, arunsh zwoiens and uscphillyguy. This was just from a quick glance (there may be more). If neither of them played yesterday then its all good. And if those are the only four and they did not play yesterday then all these tourneys should count. Just Thursday was a first come first serve kind of thing. I have nothing to gain. I only cashed for 100 today and am a non pro.

    autodonk --- I know you are a smart guy and I know that you know it would be wrong for you to play a third tourney after playing last night and at 4 today.

    As usual , you are just having fun trying to exasperate your adversaries.

    Deep down, though, you are a fair minded guy who will not abuse the spirit of fair play.

    Seriously, you can't possibly be this stupid.

    1) Nothing was specific to YOU, numbnut. So what you say here is irrelevant. This is about the overall picture... get it?

    2) Did you play another tourney yesterday?... have no idea. But if you did, then you're only suppose to play 1 today. It's clear, numbnut.

    you read too much into what you put in bold.... read literally, it reads exactly as i interpret it, although his intent may have been different....

    reread ur own bs, superyuuu....... if youre a guy who normally plays the 10am and 3pm and couldnt today.

    dumbass, im a guy who normally plays the ten am and couldn't [yesterday].

    read literally, u dumbass, the phrase "and couldn't today" applies only to the ten and 3 pm trnies.......

    So, it is most true to form to make it up during the week day, at times very close to the 10am and 3pm, and everyone has the same advantage to play the extra game.

    Good luck!!!!
    it was in his later post, numbnuts...........

    that's EVERYONE, dumbass.... doesn't say "just the ones who missed the ten and 3 pm trnies"....... doesn't say "just the players who missed playing on thursday", either...... IT SAYS EVERYONE!!!!


    BOTTOM LINE: SBR POKER MOD had one big issue that arose yesterday and could have easily been clarified with a bright line rule/clarification, and it wasnt....... sbr failed to address the one major issue today that 95 percent of all posts on the poker message board sought clarification on.......

    sad............. we got not a f'n peep..........

    I don't want to further clutter THIS particular thread.

    I had a lil sumpthin' sumpthin for your obtuse donk ass but didn't want to post it here.

    Trying to keep this thread uncluttered and to the matter at hand... and you'll note in my last post that I agree that the fault basically lies all w/ SBR... soup to nuts. That you're obtuse is secondary and not important at this time.

    WE AGREE ON THAT FO SHO....... you and a few others had excellent ideas to address the ambiguity (eg., not count points at all; ban anyone proven to play three trnies, etc.) but not a word....

    it does appear, from the last of his posts that i cited above (the everyone post), that sbr was seemingly saying anyone could jump into either of the two "extra" tourneys --the 11am or 4 pm, (we all had the equal opportunity to do that according to Doug's express language), and then play another trny in addition to playing in one of the "extra" trnys, and that they weren't limiting this only to players who actually did not get to play yesterday.

    The non-communication from SBR is the disappointing/annoying part.
