SIDE NOTES…..
MY Personal opinion and thoughts, take them for what you will.

I know I haven’t been out to the game in quite some time due to other personal obligations and committment’s I have at the moment. So my opinions may not matter as much as they used to. I will be back once things settle down. I have always enjoyed playing cards with the lot of you and have enjoyed some eventfull outings such as seeing Al & Rob play, or catching a game with Wanyer or all the fun pot locks and superbowl parties.Can’t forget the game that we had at Rich’s.

By no means do I consider to be the best player of the group or do I think that I’m a professional by any means. All I know is that i’m better than Rich! LOL

I agree with Evan that a fair bit of the guys are attending the game for a social outing, shoot the shit, play some cards and get away from the daily grind & hang out with friends. I personally had the best time playing cards before we introduced the cup. BUT i know all too well that with any competitive game espeically with some $ at stake things will naturally serious nature its own.

We have to decide if the Monday game is more intended for “serious” poker play or a “social’ outing and from there form the rules accordingly.

My vote would be to abolish the cup and start a new.
Continue to take and an “x” amount of $ from each tourney  ( maybe $5 or $10 depending on # of players) and put inside the cup for things like, chairs, cards,chips,tv’s, ear plugs and of course strippers & topless dealers! Vote on how and when to use the $ as a group.

Things will get less heated and pretty sure everyone will have a good time!

that’s my fifty cents,
peace out!!

1) A separate fee should be paid by those who wish to compete for the cup $10 or $15

(that purse money goes to the winner of the cup).  Those who don’t pay are not eligible for points.

2)  Any player not at the table at the time of their deal has to to put a big blind in the pot.

3)  This is a big one so read. new point structure

first gets 4         second gets 2           third gets 1

  If a chop is made for the money by the final two then the points must also be chopped,   3, 3, and  1 

First eligible player to 20 points gets his name on the cup and purse money.

NO POINTS WILL BE AWARDED UNTIL THIS IS CONCLUDED.

I believe all ideas should be heard, considered, discussed rationally and ultimately decided by majority vote.

Does anyone want to have a heads ups tourney for this Monday instead of the regular style game?

–Rich

If anyone wants to have any rules changes for the next season, it would be nice to decide on them before the season starts?
