    200 points contest - 10 PM poker

    Here is the deal. As some of you may know i hit the royal flush tonight and everyone at the table got 5000 points.

    In appretiation i decided to throw a small tournament. The goal is to whoever guesses most out of 3.

    If you hit all 3 you get 200. If no one hits 3 which will pretty much happen, the guy with 2 hits gets 200. If no one guesses 2, the poster with one player in the top 3 wins 200.

    In anycase of a tie the winning posters split the 200 points.
    Deadline is 10PM.

    Ok, that's why i left room for improvements guys since i'm still excited and have no experience in making contest. It could've been handicapping one but i don't have the time to grade. So what do you suggest?

    OK i got your point. I can change the rules to whoever guess most of the top 3 finishers wins? For example if you hit just one guy and you are the only one you win the points!? As i said i want to make it with you help.

    Pavy not only will you win, but you will hit a royal flush and win this challenge. Can you say record amount of points in a day??

    I was very close to winning last night. I'd doubt I'll make top 3 again tonight but never say never!

    I hope this one works for you guys

    Here we go again. Please send a PM to Lou about this if true. This is getting ridiculous now.
