Suggestion for poker tournament
« on: January 31, 2006, 04:13:12 PM »

Hey, I played in the Dreamation midnight poker tournament, and I had an observation. For the time, effort, and skill that the folks who make it to the final table put in, it would be cool if they at least got a nice amount of prize points. I felt kind of bad for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place finishers, since they got nuthin' for their efforts.

Just a thought.

Drew,

I think I would agree with you that second and third place should get some prize points. I don't know about forth place. Ive never seen a Copper metal at the Olympics.

Heh. I hear you. I brought up 4th place because usually the top three get the prize points, and I just shifted it down, assuming that the shopping spree was enough for first place.

Eh? "My own stock?" I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Oh, and thanks!
