Not a bad idea, but might be more trouble than it's worth, if most people already have pstars account.

Definitely looks like we'll have enough for wednesday but we have a lil issue... PokerStars requires 2000 Player points to have the right to create private games. Has anyone on AT accrued enough to create the game?

I don't even know if/how I can add real money to my PokerStars account. Everything I see just makes reference to play money.

Maybe we will need to switch to a different place?

I'm in. do you need 2000 points available, or just 2000 earned total to setup private tourneys? If it's the latter I can do it... otherwise, amoeba will need to set it up and post the password here.

I recommend that we sign up some alternates too. If someone's on the list but doesn't have a real money account funded, they may not be able to get it setup in time.

It's no big deal. I'll play if there's room. Otherwise, be thankful I'm not there to take your money :p

Also, people who signed up late but still want to play, we will likely have another one right after as a single table tourney doesn't take very long so we'll work you in.

Are we still doing this?

If so, what is the buy-in again?

Edit: P.S. My name on there is War Walker -- someone already had Crimson Chaos apparently.
