Cardschat will have a team playing in the wsop Little One for One Drop event this year. It will be a mixture of current members and some new members we will invite to Cardschat.

The event will be a last longer challenge and will consist of somewhere between 10-20 members. I am putting the team together now and would like to have as many current Cardschat members in it as possible! As we add members they will need to post in this thread to introduce themselves and give us a little bit of background on their poker experience and history.

Cardschat will pay 20% of each team member's $1111 entry into the event which is $222. The 20% represents the 10% that will go to the Little One for One Drop charity and the 10% rake. (This is a re-entry event - you can re-enter but we will only pay 20% of one entry per team member).

The team member who lasts the longest will get the remainder of their entry reimbursed which will be $889!

There are 2 Day 1's - we are asking that you start on Day 1B on July 3rd. (we want to do a group photo and I need to give you your $222!). It is a 4 day event and will end on July 5th.

Team members will be required to:
  1. Post their introduction to the team in this thread.
  2. Participate in the mega rail thread that I will create prior to the event.
  3. Wear a Cardschat hoodie throughout the entire Little One for One Drop event. (Hoodie will be provided by Cardschat).
  4. Tweet about participating in the team event mentioning @Cardschat. Facebook posts are welcome too!
  5. Participate in team photo 30 min before the game.
Team members - we will be meeting 30 minutes before the game so I can give you your money and we can take a team photo. I will give you the place to meet later.
Confirmed Team Members so far: (bolded have made intro posts here)
  1. Debi O'Neill (dakota-xx)

Even though all of you know who I am - I will still do a brief intro post since I will be on the team.

I have been playing poker for about 8 years. I started playing online at Paradise Poker then moved to pokerstars. I joined this forum in 2007 and started playing mtt's seriously a couple of years later. I sucked at sng's but did well in mtt's.

After Black Friday I started playing live tournaments several times a year and really found my passion.

My biggest online cash was almost $6k and my biggest live cash was $5352 this past Nov.

My best and favorite live finish was 31st of 977 in the 2012 WSOP Ladies event.

I hope to beat all of my team mates to take this down!!

A brief intro.
I have been A member of the forum since 2008.
I have played poker full time for over ten years on the grind.
I am primarily A tournament circuit player that aims for the guarantee prize pools and WPT/WSOP/HPT events.
I also play online full time at bovada mostly,but starting to dabble around on black chip poker.
My biggest wins came 2 years ago at the lucky hearts poker open at seminole hard rock in hollywood,where I cashed 3 out of the 5 tournaments I played,with A final table at one and below 20 on the other two tournaments.
6TH place in the 350 buy in 100k guarantee.
17th place in the 350 buy in 100k guarantee.
14th in the 1100 buy in 300k guarantee.
I also cashed back to back at WPT circuit event Tampa hard rock that followed.
I have also won several online tounaments including the randy catoure tournament on full tilt 100 buy in.
I have cashed in the 100k guarantee on bovada many times but cant seem to get A lock on first.
I am also A steady member of the top ten on the freeroll leaderboard here at cardschat.
Any other questions feel free to ask,and this is great what we are doing for one drop and glad I can be A part of it.

Some of our team members you may not be familiar with are beasts -

Nancy has won 3 WSOPC rings I think - check out her Hendon Mob link above.

Rex is one to fear as well - see his Hendon Mob link and this:

http://www.pokernews.com/news/2013/...uit-national-leader-board-points-le-14809.htm

Most of you have heard of Katie Stone - she is one of the 4 Grindettes and we have done an interview with her in the past. I never want to see her on one of my tables! ;)

Kristin is going to be the sleeper in this thing - beware!!

We know left52side well - but wasn't aware of his live accomplishments - looks like I am going to have my work cut out for me in this thing!!

Then there is little old me... hehe.

The team needs to all put on the hoodies and then do the walk down the hallway of the Rio together like the Full Tilt ads (or the Scare Team slo-mo walk in Monsters Inc) and post it on YouTube.

Or this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCqUESCoB1w

Also, is there a hard deadline for sign-ups? I just found out I start my job on July 7th (not July 1st), and could potentially be around Vegas for the little drop... Sorry to be so flip-floppy!!

Not yet - but I am actively recruiting team members and there is a limit - so don't procrastinate too long :)

I will add you to list 3.

Good luck to team, wish I could go, but I haven't even started to play Live yet. A friend of mine is moving to Vegas next month. Maybe when she gets settled i'll visit. I may have missed it but will it be streamed Live via internet?

Thank you for offering the chance.
on July the 4th, with that golden week, I am not sure about my family's schedule.
would try to make a decision no later than May 17th if I could go to play that event with CC members or need to travel with family.

thank you Cardschat again.
