    I think the idea is sound, just its hard for people to play in all 4 Carbon tournaments.. Ur talking 12 straight hours of playing poker every time you want to play.. Maybe 2-3 people might

    In essence, this idea is just 15 LLBs throughout the day, determined by other LLB results.

    OK, well this idea is in the draft stage . Maybe you could spread it out over a few days.

    You should do some kind of donkey bet tournament where people pay like 100 points to enter and get like 1000 units to use in donkey bets. At the end of the day/week the person with the most units wins the prizepool.


    Edit: Thinking about it you could do the exact same thing with LLB's.

    There are at least 16 degens here that would be all for it.

    What if we make this like idea, and twist it a bit.. Think March Madness.. Field of 64 with brackets..

    So the idea I am getting is, the first 64 people who want to sign up, fill in the spots.. If we only get 50 then people will get byes in the first round..

    Ok imagine a bracket: https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/i...Bdzp7itxmRik-g

    You get randomly seeded...

    What we do is make it a LLB challenge..

    Example: Lets say you are seeded against Prawney. Rivdee vs Prawney

    - THE FIRST tournament that BOTH of you play in together, whoever Lasts Longer than the other wins and advances to the next round (Tomorrow)

    - If neither of you play in the same tournament, whoever finishes higher for the day (5th place vs 15th place etc, 5th place advances)

    - If neither of you play at all today, winner determined by coin flip

    - In the event of a tie, whoever finished in a higher place with a larger field (5th place - 80 person field vs 5th place 60 person field, the 80 person field would advance)


    Wednesday - Monday field of 64 starts to be filled for the next week
    Round 1- Monday (Down to 32)
    Round 2- Tuesday (Down to 16)
    Round 3- Wednesday (Down to 8)
    Round 4- Thursday (Down to 4)
    Round 5 - Friday (Down to 2)
    Round 6 - Saturday (Winner)

    i think the random seeding is whack. You can rank players on here.

    - If neither of you play at all today, winner determined by coin flip

    - In the event of a time, whoever finished in a higher place with a larger field (5th place - 80 person field vs 5th place 60 person field, the 80 person field would advance)


    Wednesday - Monday field of 64 starts to be filled for the next week
    Round 1- Monday (Down to 32)

    Round 3- Wednesday (Down to 8)
    Round 4- Thursday (Down to 4)
    Round 5 - Friday (Down to 2)
    Round 6 - Saturday (Winner)

    OK Now we're talking. I would tweak the following - If neither person plays, it should be a draw and they are both eliminated (remember, we're trying to reward player loyalty).

    The cool thing is, for a very small investment of 100 pts, you could win 6400 if the tournament filled in.

    I like the bracket format, players are already familiar with March Madness brackets. Looking forward to start participating in the promotion. Thanks again for your hard work Zab, Kudos to you !!
