This is mainly for those in Europe and our east coast buddys.

The schedule is spread out so everyone will get a chance to play no matter when they work.

**mvp123** · 02-11-11, 11:13 PM

yeah that schedule even fits a bum like me , plenty of time to get in one , now if i can get lucky one time lol

**BeerDog99** · 02-12-11, 12:12 AM

great options, hopefully I can actually take one of these down, thanks SBR!

**Wulfman14** · 02-12-11, 01:13 AM

made my first final table and lost on a fluke flush that took down my straight. otherwise i really thought i could have won the thursday 2 pm satellite. dont know if i can make a run like that again. getting frustrated though. even though this is supposed to be fun.

**Wulfman14** · 02-12-11, 01:15 AM

12 pm EST is perfect. thanks john, lou, SBR,

**onlooker** · 02-12-11, 01:15 AM

I made my first final table this week. Finished 8th, lead at the break, but got terrible cards after that. Also, it seems like every damn time I have a pocket pair, even A's, I get beat in a show down. I have terrible luck with pocket pairs. So damn frustrating. I feel your pain. I'm not big on poker playing, but I did finish 8th and 16th this week. With some 40's and even a 66th when I wasn't feeling it at all.

thanks guy. yea its tough. just got to keep fingers crossed and hope i make a run like that again. hope to see you next saturday. pisses me off even more when guys in here win two in a row . un friggin believable. especially when much of the game revolves around luck especiallly towards the end. lady luck has always been a bitch to me though so whatever..

**frognose20** · 02-12-11, 09:19 AM

**no1here** · 02-12-11, 10:27 AM

plan on 2 hours

Here is the scoop...

We start with 68.

If you make it to the final 10 you will have played on avg 65 minutes. So 58 players play less than an hour.

The final table takes about 35 minutes. So to win you would play one hour and forty minutes. We are trying for the 1 hour and 30 minute mark but the last 4 or 5 guys play very tight which is fine.

Surely some sponsor would jump on a "March Madness" Poker Tournament?

Make it happen!
