Welcome to the OcUK Poker 2010 Season.

What:
The game is Texas Hold 'Em: No Limit Tournament. The blinds start at 10/20 and will increase ever 10mins. The games often don't last any longer than 2.5hrs. A maximum of 50 players can take part in an evening's game.

When:
Games are on a Sunday evening usually at 8:30pm. However when popular programmes such as Top Gear are on the TV the starting time is often 9:15-9:30pm.

Where:
The games will take place on Stan James. Free registration and taking part in games is free. Stan James Link

Why:
For the fun and the winner of the league will receive the coveted OcUK Poker Champ signature.

Who:
This is open to anyone from OcUK. Last year we had a player invite some people from another forum. This isn't a problem so long as they join OcUK then they can play.

How:
To set up a table you need to deposit $10 into your Stan James account. Then click on 'My Account' then 'manage private tables'. Then create a table buy selecting freeroll, no limit, Texas Hold'em, 50 seat tourney, the date would be a Sunday at 8:30pm. Then at the end make sure you click 'Show Table'

Defending Champion:
Darkmage88 - 09
Darkmage88 - 08

A new year brings a new OcUK Poker season and the chance to win the "infamous" Poker Champ signature.

There was a massive drop off towards the middle to latter part of last year's season and as a result the games eventually stopped. The reason for this would be finding people willing to pay £8-£10 for a table. I'm therefore wanting to cut back the number of games played this season and possibly a change of website, if someone can find a free freeroll.

I would like people's suggestions on the length of the season, points and any other comments welcome.

Anyone interested this year?

Rules:
As this is mainly for fun there aren't many rules:

No just posting the blinds and folding to any bets in order to get up the rankings. While this is a perfectly legal poker more, excessive use of this tactic will not be tolerated. This is meant as just a friendly game of poker.

In order to host a room a player must deposit $10 into Stan James. Each week someone will volunteer to do it. While you are not asked to pay it would nice every once in a while. A record will be kept of who as already paid and two points will be awarded to said person.

Information:
The games will take place every week for 12 weeks. Do remember the more the play the higher the chance your score will be. People can join at any time throughout the year.

Interested.

Question is, Is there a freeroll we can all join privately ?.

Closest I can find is from PKR.COM (not private, so anyone could and will join.)

I'll be entering again, and im willing to pay towards tables should the need arise, though hopefully we'll find an alternative, sadly i have no suggestions :(
 
I'd be interested aslong as the starting times stay consistant.

Stopped playing last year due to missing games as the times were all over the place.
 
I wouldn't mind paying like last year, maybe if each week was set to a certain person to pay then it might work?

I think that could possibly lead to problems. What happens if it's your turn to pay and you suddenly couldn't make the game for outside commitments? It would have to fall to someone else and they might not have the money available.

I think the best solution could be cutting the season down to say 12 weeks. Fewer problems and fewer chances of people not paying.
