Anyone want to do some volume prop's for September?

30k hands w/profit or some shit, looking for a way to stay motivated through school

I might be up for a volume prop. Let me get back to you tomorrow. How much were you thinking?

 

[Emperor IX]

I wish one of the sites would offer 21max games. That would be interesting.

 

[duggs]

id probably be up for it, same boat as you deuces

 

[xdeucesx]

I like our old formats we've done, but rules need to be tweaked. Once you declare in, your in. You can't declare "in" , then by like 5th day just be like lolnvm i'm out. Like that kinda defeats the purpose

edit: not implying you did that matt lol, just re-read that and came off harsh. We've just had issues with it in the past is all

Might want to escrow $$s as well. Pretty sure there is at least 1 person still owed cash from the last one.

 

[ScottishMatt]

LoL. No problem man. Last time I was the only guy to pay up directly IIRC.

A pool of players sounds like the best idea IMO. Would be down for that.

Ya, could definitely be a good idea....seeing as I didn't get paid last time


I'd be down to escrow, as long as it's all on paypal. Might do good having a euro+ american or something if we have ppl on both sides so euro's can do stars

I wish one of the sites would offer 21max games. That would be mind-blowingly boring.

FYP

 

[hackmeplz]

don't talk publicly about using paypal for poker stuff. They've been known to shut down accounts based on forum posts saying that certain transactions are poker-related.

Has anyone heard from Jurn8 since?

 

[ScottishMatt]

Only if we are dumb enough to mention it in the transaction though. They can't be scouring the interwebs for poker threads that include the word paypal.

Well, this isn't exactly a small site. Plus, it wouldn't be hard to scour the internet for poker threads about paypal transactions.

He was chatting on Skype couple weeks back, gone AWOL again now though.
Also don't mind escrowing if it's not too much effort.

Life called, decided to not answer

Hi

The one instance I know of was based on a 2p2 post. He got an email that his account was being closed because of the 2p2 post about a paypal for poker site xfer, nothing in the transaction details. idk how likely it is for any given transaction to have that happen, but I use paypal for a decent amount of stuff and it'd kinda suck to have it shut down from being careless.

 

[ScottishMatt]

I've definitely heard of it happening because someone shipping funds mentioned in the transaction message/note section that it was staking funds. Didn't about that that one on 2+2 that you mention above, then again I don't use 2+2 so perhaps I'm not up to speed on this.

 

[hackmeplz]

Oh also I can probably escrow on Stars if needed, I'll probably enter it too now that I can actually play real poker and stuff.

 

[xdeucesx]

i'll set up a thread w/some updated rules later today

 

[ScottishMatt]

everyone back to school and college maybe?

You'll get in the club soon enough.

You'll get in the club soon enough.

Story of my month. Teach me how to run good please? (Doesn't even have to be run good - I'll settle for missing every flop just to stop getting coolered)


In other news, Zoom is extremely fun. Volume prop = easypeasylemonsqueezy

And Zach if we do get the volume prop off the ground I'd prefer to escrow through Stars with you, if that's cool?
