Okay, so we've been talking about this for a bit, and one of the bankers wants to give this a try. Aside from the random games of various sizes throughout the day, we're going to have a weekly tournament (or two) at a repeating time for the same amount. These work the same as a regular game, except that there will be an additional prize (or two).
**************************************************
For this first game, we will be doing the following:
High-Stake Tournament #1 Saturday 19th Jan, 05:00 EVE time. (US Friday night, Aussie Saturday evening) Buy in: 265 Billion Single table event.
Game Payout (pending 9 entries): First = 1.75 Billion Second = 500 Million Third = Ishtar, (personal donation)
Anyone who would like to partake should leave a message in this thread to reserve a seat. If we get many more than 9 we will look at doing a dual-table tournament with higher payouts and a second Ishtar.
**************************************************
Since this is a new endeavor on our part (a scheduled tournament, pardoning the big one back in mid-autumn), feedback on what works best for you, the players, would be useful. We are also kicking around the idea of a multi-table smaller buy-in (say 28m) to occur at the same time, also on a weekly basis, and to have additional prizes in those as well. So leave ideas and requests for timezone coverage, setup, etc, in this thread as well. Thanks in advance.

Please god tell me that is meant to be million. I mean... the buy in alone could buy you two freaking Titans.
Anyway, moving on from the slight grammatical mistake, if it truly is Friday night then it is going to be closer to Aussie morning, seeing as we're only 17 hours ahead of pacific time. So if you hold it at 9pm, then that would make it 2pm here.

Okay, remind me not to make posts in the dead of night =)
As for timing, I was trying to find a spot where both US and Aussie players would be able to do this. I guess my calculations were off (also the dead of night thing). Let's see if we can find a slightly better hour then.

I am guessing people aren't going to reg and we'll just fill the table on Friday. However, placing your name here assures you a seat, though we are always offering games. Anyway, bumping away =)

i won
called the all in on the last hand with king two. i was chip lead so i figured he was bluffing. flop comes up seven, jack three of diamonds. wich augments my two of diamonds nicely. next card is a four of diamonds wich seals my aponents fate. not a bad fate as second place paid 500mil or so but first gets 1.75bil not bad for a little under 2 hours.
great game great contest hope it happens again.
im sure there are several grammar and spelling errors, try to ignore them. they won't hurt you.

The first tournament went off without a hitch with a full table of Nine.
The winners were as follows (one of them already posted):
Fraps - 1.75 Billion ISK Thief It - 500 Million ISK Logicprobe - Ishtar
Congratulations to all of the winners. We will be planning next week's tournament for an earlier time for the Euro/US croud, and will probably change the amount. Check back for more information!

No one has to play until the hour before the table starts, that way if something comes up at the last minute there are no issues with what happens to reserved ISK. Hope to see you there on Friday!

Bump. Most people seem to like to wait until the last minute, but I would appreciate pre-registration here. No ISK required.

The second tournament went well, with a 105m table, but it was nothing spectacular.
We will be postponing a third tournament until we can figure out a way to make these games more spectacular without bankrupting me =) Ideas are always welcome.
