SBR Makeup Poker Tournaments

[turtlejc]

you guys and your poker

unreal

go drink some beer and throw some red meat on the fire

go blow some shit up

[USCPHILLYGUY]

If there's a gentleman's agreement in place that only the remaining 9 from Thursday are signing up, then I'll unregister. Otherwise I'm staying.

WTF are you talking about? The "gentleman's agreement" is that you werent one of the 9 players left so why would you think its ok to play? Have some common decency. It's a shit move and you're better than that

[Jimmy Proffett]

Why weren't passwords given to the 9 players? Are 35 people going to jump in to play the 9PM?

I actually plan on burgers and beers real soon and I am going to switch over to the 11PM tourney. But first I always like to stir the pot if I can. Fact is passwords should've been given to the last 9 from Thursday's 9PM game; not let someone who played in the 7PM double-dip. That's ridiculous.

I don't know if SBR can do anything about it though. If you can't make tonight's 9PM a password-only game then those 9 should just be paid out where they ended up. Instead this is going to be a cluster****.

Edit: And I'm not blowing shit up. JPP's message of avoiding fireworks really spoke to me.

[RudyRuetigger]

common you are better than that

[4uk4life]

Yis is registered for the 11pm, just consider those two switched. All is well

[bobbywaves]

why blame SBR for this?

They could have easily sent a password via PM, to the 9 players remaining.

If you weren't one of the 9 left then dont sign up.

Agreed, but that's not happening unfortunately.

would you expect anything less from this angle shooting, cheating, Piece of shit?

No, I wouldn't expect anything less from POS.

Enjoy the holiday weekend.

[frankzig]

no disrespect to anyone here, but i see it filling up so i got in

[bobbywaves]

I didn't get to play in the 11PM. I'd rather play in the 9PM so I can go out afterward. Eat my grundle booby

Is "grundle" the prime piece of real estate located conveniently between Scrotumburg and Anusville? No thanks, I'm eating bacon cheeseburgers.

Your logic for entering the 9pm was majorly flawed. Apparently you realized that & did the right thing by unregistering.

[funnyb25]

All this fuss for 1 sbr tourny...there is 1 EVERY DAY M-F....is this thread really happening right now?

[bobbywaves]

Otherwise I'm staying.

[BigOrange]

I played in the 7pm so I am sitting out this one. Anyone with any self respect that played in the earlier tournament or busted out of this one before it got fukked up, should do the same.

[bobbywaves]

Why weren't passwords given to the 9 players?

Agreed, that should have been done. Why wasn't it done? My guess is laziness.

Are 35 people going to jump in to play the 9PM?

Probably, but doesn't mean it's right. If you were one of the 9 left, would you appreciate a field of 35?

[Mayberry]

Great! Was wondering why i couldnt sign up last night. Thanks!!

[funnyb25]

How about if you were never a part of that tournament...is it fair to get in? If you were knocked out of that tourny and are signed up again, thats kinda screwed up...but what if you were never a part of that tournament and didnt get to play in the 11pm either because the app was screwed up...that is my case..

[yisman]

Yis is registered for the 11pm, just consider those two switched. All is well

No. I am still waiting for SBR to either issue prizes for the 9 PM or have a makeup for the 9 players left.


Crickets.

[Grivas_Digeni]

Well it could be worse. But if I had a real chip stack when it crashed I'd be genuinely pissed off.

Again, what is plan B if this happens in a final tournament with some real prizes on the line?

It's time to look into adjusting software to be able to make deals, distribute payouts manually etc. To add features that are present inLike, you know, every other poker software out there since early 2010s.

If you didn't play Friday you should be in the 11pm, since that tourney never started. You shouldn't be in the 9pm. If you were one of the 9 left, would you want to see all these extra people in your tourney? Basically, the 9 players left have to cash twice.

Thought any reasonable person could see how that's unfair. But apparently not, as you & many others registered for the 9pm who shouldn't have.

I will unregister for the 9pm and play in the 11pm...will that make you happy since i was one who didnt get to play in the 11pm either as the software was down..

[Jimmy Proffett]

I would hope that SBR would be able to create a password for the remaining 9. Maybe they can't; I don't know how much is involved setting that up, I'm not a programmer.

Truth is I wouldn't care if I was 1 of 9 and a tournament allowed a bunch of people in on a Saturday. You're not winning much when you win. It's the chance to possibly be able to 3x rollover your points high enough to get a $25 gift card. Big deal. If people want to play in the 9PM tonight it's their business, I don't see the need to get emotional over it like you and USCPhilly, 2 guys who by the way aren't affected by this anyway.

[bobbywaves]

Crickets.

Not happening...You're getting majorly screwed here, since you were chip leader. Especially if you don't cash tonight. Not fair all these losers signing up for the 9pm.

[bobbywaves]

You should be able to see playing the 11pm is the right thing to do, I shouldn't have to point out the obvious.

[bobbywaves]

They can, as it's been done before.

If you were the chip leader, you would be singing a different tune. What happens if the chip leader (Yis) busts out tonight, when he had an easy top 3 locked up? How is that fair?

I was almost a part of it, as I busted out in 11th. Doesn't matter who wasn't affected, it's about doing the right thing.

[astro61200]

I was 2nd out in the 9pm on Thursday.. but also was too busy working to play last night so I'll be joining one of the two, whichever fits my schedule better. The points from the 9pm aren't going to count toward standings, so saying only the remaining 9 should join is stupid. The final 9 and 3 other cashers should have received a password, but SBR didn't do that. It took days of me bitching to get one last time, and even then a guy who didn't get the password joined and played a major part in determining who won.

Also, if someone took a screenshot of the standings when it crashed that may have been better, as I'm sure they can't access the tournament info at the time of crash (which is another reason why 12th-10th won't get their points in the standings)

[RudyRuetigger]

lost some respect for these fukks joining the 9pm

[chico2663]

They should be listed in the software as makeup tournaments. Some people don't read the forum and they'll just sign up thinking it's bonus tournaments. They'll both be full with maybe half of each being people that got locked out of the 9pm. Just look for the 3pm and 7pm regulars

glad you said this because I did and while I was waiting seen this thread. Thank you because being fat and ugly' I didn't need to be branded a cheater. Like that idiot who live in the same city as I.But i didn't play 5 under bobby waves so 11 it is. be honest not sure so backed out

[astro61200]

Hopefully they can sleep tonight..

[funnyb25]

Out of the 9pm...into the 11pm...BOL

[RudyRuetigger]

Hopefully they can sleep tonight..

speaking of dumbfukks, you do realize they have the stacks copied from the 9 remaining

[astro61200]

Yep, but a screenshot gives much better proof than just typing out what the stacks were. Gives evidence. Would it have mattered? Who knows. Doesn't matter now.

[Jimmy Proffett]

I would not.

What happens if the chip leader (Yis) busts out tonight, when he had an easy top 3 locked up? How is that fair?

I wouldn't be. If life's been fair to you up until this point, then count your lucky stars. SBR tries its best to put out a good product; they had a glitch. There's no need to get all emotional b/c something happened to lock up the poker site.

I was almost a part of it, as I busted out in 11th. Doesn't matter who wasn't affected, it's about doing the right thing.

I do agree that doing the right thing would be for a person signed up for the 11PM Thursday to play the 11PM tonight if possible. That was my bad; I shouldn't have originally logged into the 9PM. I also don't think the other 20+ people joining the 9PM tonight are pieces of shit, as you so eloquently put it. They have the night off or whatever, let em play ffs, it's for poker points.

[EmpireMaker]

They can, as it's been done before.

If SBR had specified that was how they wanted to do it I would have done it that way (and I assume others would have too) but they didn't specify that.

oneunder took a screenshot and posted accurate chip totals in the thread that was created when it went down.

ok you bullied me I'M out

[bobbywaves]

The points from the 9pm aren't going to count toward standings, so saying only the remaining 9 should join is stupid.

Disagree. Places 10-12 did count towards standings & were credited, as you can see by my 11th place badge. If you're talking about the makeup tourney, obviously pts will count. Otherwise, tourney is not worth playing.

The reason why only the final 9 should play is obvious, they need to cash twice now & will only be credited if they cash tonight. Yis was the chip leader with a huge stack & a top 3 locked up. So how is it fair he may get nothing now, if he busts due to more than the 9 people who should have been playing?
