Looking for people interested in winning a copy of PT4 this January. We have 2 copies to give away to tourney players.

First copy will be awarded to the person who does the best in the CC buyins for the month of January. There are 16 CC buyins in January. Not everybody can participate in all the games so only your best 6 results will count. Each game will be scored as follows:

1st 60
2nd 48
3rd 38
4th 30
5th 24
6th 20
7th 16
8th 14
9th 12
Any other position 6

First buyin game that counts is the Carbon buyin on Friday at 5pm ET


The other copy will be awarded to the best contributor to the tournament forums in January. Contributing could be looking for advice, offering good advice and so on. 1400 1-word posts is not the way to victory


For those of you who already have PT4 or don't want to win it, you can still enter and be in with a chance to win a signed copy of "Reading Poker Tells" by Zach Elwood.

Sign up here and specify the prize you would prefer to win. You can be eligible for both but let us know which you would like and which you would prefer.

Any questions, ask away!

Thanks to our sponsors for these prizes!

I would like a copy of PT4 and a couple of final tables this month.
Oh, and a seat at the OFC game at Atlantis 1/7/13.

gl all thx CC

I'm in for 'Reading Poker Tells' book. tks.

Actually had this book on my Christmas List but didn't receive it. Looks like Santa knew I'd be getting it in January instead

IN!

Pokertracker 4 please


Do you check each and everyones results or do we have to post our best 6 over the course of a month?

Nice offer for CC members! Especially for the long term contributers.
Would love the chance to win pt4 but either would be perfect!

I'll be posting the results of each buyin in that game thread and I'll post the standings weekly in here so it will be easy to follow.

Good to see some more sign ups since I was last on. I'm in too but will be going for the book.

I'd like to join the bandwagon.

Since it took me over a year to fully understand HEM (which is dabatable but anyway) I should probably take the book if I were wise.

Since I'm not wise and HEM keeps ****ing up my carbon results and I have to edit them manually I'll go for PT4.

graf karow @ PS

grafkarow @ carbon

I may as well try PT4

Love this contest!!!

I really need all the help I can get - as my game SUCKS big

So yea I'm in - going for PT4

THANKS!

If you mastered HEM, PT is very similar (at least in the basics). It also uses the same database program so makes for easy installation. I used PT for a trial basis because HEM refuses to support Americas Cardroom, and I was able to work with it without skipping a beat.

I have been recommending people go with PT instead of HEM lately.

Count me in! PT4 please

Do the bovada buy-ins count? Should we just post a screenshot or something to show our finishing spot?

As long as a screenshot is posted in the chat thread, we will track it. Although as I'm typing this, it has occurred to me tonight's Bovada game will be difficult since it's anonymous... If people who have posted in this thread post where they finishes we can count it, that would be the only I guess for now.

Alright those are pretty much the only ones ill play in unless i win a freeroll on any other site but ill post in here my finishing spot and also a screenshot in the chat threads

Well, I've played one or two buy ins in January, I thnk. I'd hate to lose a chance to get PT4 so count me in! THANKS

Seems that so far, BCP games haven't run and may not, so the competition may run for 2 months or we may just count your top 4 scores or it may stay the same. Just be aware that it could change atm, but we'll keep you updated.

Just saw this! Count me in for a chance at the PT4. natsgrampy on Carbon and #12 on Bovada.(today) lol

Bodog - today - I was #8 - was in chip lead - one bad move - then all went downhill and finished in 19th place

In, PT4

Bovada results;

Bovada 1-7 dj.jpg

Guys, it would really be ideal for each of you to post a screenie of your Bovada results, as DJ has above, because then we can see that the number you say is you is you, as it says (me) next to your number. For the Carbon and PokerStars results, we will have the screenshot in the results thread so as long as your profile is updated with your screennames we shouldn't have a problem!

so todays bodog 5.50 bi counts???

edit: read before posting, or refresh screen occassionally

results

Results for PS buyin Jan 6th

1. PO 48pts
2. jj 30
3. MoD 24
4. mical 14
5. Graf 12
6. Jonny 6
7. ram 6

Sorry if I've missed anyone, just let me know and I'll fix it. Will add Bovada results this evening.

Sure would make this alot less complicated if you guys just gave me the book & let the rest play for PT4 (I mean.. we know it's goin' that way anyways... right? )

Good Luck to all who are competing for PT4 (< I'd be choosing that too but I won it a couple mos. ago)

TBF, no one else has said they want the book apart from you and I, even if they don't win PT4 which is a shame. You can put yourself forward for both guys! Also remember we're also handing out prizes for top tourney contributor of the month which we will be discussing so get posting!

I just found this thread and it sounds like a fun challenge. Its 1/3 of the way through the month but I'm in.

GL all

You didn't miss many games Cam (only 2 have been played yet) so you've got plenty of time to compete. Good luck.


Now, about that Bovada buyin... I don't really have any idea who in this contest made the final table. For the next one could anyone playing that game that wants their points to be counted post a screenshot of the lobby when they've busted so we'll know where everyone finished. I'll allocate points for everyone I can and total them after the Carbon game tomorrow.

So far I've got: mical 30pts, dj 24, jj, dome and PO with 6.

Ok cool. You got me down for 6pts. (I didn't even have to post a screenshot? .... fwiw, I was the guy sitting out (again).. til' I was down to 3bb's. Made a good comeback & then ran 55 -77 (< ?) into QQ

tks for keepin' score (but really, it's not going to be necessary)

Can I get 10 bonuspoints , because I cant play Bovada/Bodog? btw I am number 14 hahahahaha

And why not give 50 bonuspoints as well for every bubble (one or two places from the money) than we can immediately stop this promo and give the 1st prize to me.

You're gonna need over 200 bonus pts. just to get 2nd overall.
Best advice > quit now & give your ego a break

I lol'led.

Bonus points will be awarded at a rate of 1 point per dollar shipped to my PokerStars account. Apologies to you Americans, no bonus points for you.

This does not seem fair to USA players as we can't play at PS so we miss 1/3 of possible games. PT4 for me. I doubt I can enough points against ROW players.

ROW players can't play Bovada so it's fair really. Just them canucks that can play all.

Yeah, that's why we made it so only some of the games count, so it's fair for everyone.

Yah, & most of us Canadians suck which makes it even more fair.

I like to reg. & sitout too (just to give you guys a bit of a chance).

Thanks CC!

Autographed poker tells please!

24pts for carbon today, not a win, but more points than PO
