The Poker Contest

How about how guessing how much weight you lose in a given timeframe.

guessing the biggest jackpot you win on your trip

Give everyone a number who enters and pull the slots, the first pull for ct member #1, and so on. The pull that wins the most will give the CT member associated with that number the win (not the amount of the jackpot).

the link for the poker group says i don't have permission to join, do you have to be a member for a certain length of time or something? tks

 

Doug needs to invite you to join the group, you have to PM him your e-mail. That is after we convince him to keep the group alive!

 

I found out he discontinued the group earlier today. If he decides to give it another shot I would be interested in attending a game or two a month. Though I would guess summer isn't as easy as winter might be with all the outdoor activities and the like.

 

You could see who could roll a coin (ike, half, quarter, dime, nickle, cent) the farthest.

you could have people guess what and what grade the prize is(half, ms70; capped bust half, vf20)

Heck, you could (for those on here who have musical talent, or for the joy of watching those like me fail) have a contest were people try to make a coin related parody or a whole coin song.

 

I have one of those too!!

 

I'm still working on a contest idea. My other one wasn't viable.

 

Man back when I used to play all the time I found that I did my best playing short dinky 2-5 hour sessions. Whenever I did some crazy 24 48 or even 72 hour marathon I'd lose like 80% of the time. And definitely could not say I played 100% perfect poker, not even close!

But when Id play a tiny 1-2 hour session much of the time I could honestly say I played near optimum. After then the focus for me slowly would die out. Only in online tournies did I not have this problem for some reason.

Its kinda nice to be just an amature again . I had a 400$ loss a few weeks ago and although it stung I just shrugged it off went home and within a few days it was in the past .


Sometimes I do miss online. Especially from years back when I could multi table 16 tables. Boy was that a rush, really good for your brain too.

 

when I click any of these links I get a "you don't have permission" error.
what is doug's name here at CT. I'll pm him directly

 

Now to convince Doug . : )

 

JCB's avatar is so fitting for this thread

 

From the slot machine contest thread I got a similar idea. You could deal out a five card hand with people placing there guess before hand what that hand will consist of i.e. pair of jacks, two pair, full house,etc or it could be made even more specific by having to guess the cards dealt and the suit of them. Seems interesting and just throwing it out there for consideration.

 

How about what your first cards are when you play BLACKJACK
