Sin City Six - Our 2008 On-line Tournament Series

Back in early 2008, Mike Bakeman started a weekly series of on-line tournaments for our home game players.

Tournament Name:Sin City Six

Buyin:$14 + $1
Game:No-limit Hold'em
Password: 696969
Date: Every Wednesday starting Feb 20/08
Time: 11:00 PM (ET) keep in mind that this tournament will start 10:00 our time.

These tournaments only lasted about 3 months.  The first 2 1/2 months we had between 10 and 13 players, but then as a few dropped off, the domino effect took hold.  It was a pretty fun idea that might've  taken hold better if we weren't so full of shift workers amongst our players.

I imagine that some players also had trouble keeping their bankroll on-line between the tournaments...

Our final game was on May 14, 2008 and with 3 players, it lasted a whopping 11 minutes - Nigel Martin stands as the last Sin City Six tournament winner.

Here are some screen shots from some of the other action;

Straight flush baby!

Of course I'll add a screen shot of a tourney I won...

The bright lights of the final table weren't hard to make in our tournament series
