It's that time again. The second annual Veto 8-Ball/Poker tournament.
This time, we're offering something for everyone. Solo players, corporations and CCP staff can find something to do.
Please note the use of "isk" and "ISK" (CCP put a lot of thought into the naming of their ingame currency mind you):
isk = Eve Online in-game currency ISK = Icelandic Currency
Player vs. Player (or dev):
32 Participants. In this case, there won't be any in game participation fee, but a 1000 ISK fee to cover the cost of the tables. Negotiations are going on regarding prizes, both from the pool hall and maybe CCP.
Corp vs. Corp
16 Corporations. Each corporation pays the in game fee of 1 billion isk (1,000,000,000 isk) and nominates their representative who will be responsible for registration and paying the 1000ISK table fee. Any member of the corporation may take any shot in any game that corporation takes part in, at the discretion of the representative.
1st place wins 3 portions of the pot, 2nd wins 2 portions and 3rd wins 1 portion.
For every Billion isk in the pot : 1st Place : 500,000,000. Million isk 2nd Place : 333,333,333. Million isk 3rd Place : 166,666,666. Million isk
Poker tournament - Jita hold'em
4 Tables, 8 seats to the table; 32 people can take part. 100,000,000 isk in game fee, with the option of a 50,000,000 buy-in, kept in reserve. There is also a 1000ISK table fee to cover the cost of the tables and chairs.
From each of the tables, the two last remaining players will continue to the next round, where poker will be played until last man sitting.
The buy in may be used at any time, if a reserve has been sent.
One rounders, variable stakes.
During the second round of the tournament, the 3 remaining tables may be reserved for other poker games. There will be the usual table fee of 1000 ISK. Those who wish to set up their own poker games at whatever high stakes they wish may suggest those in this thread.
Rules and such: The first to register get in. Should they fail to pay the participation fee before the deadline, March 17th, the next in line will take their place.
The pool tournament will play games of 8-Ball. Any foul will be ball in hand. A certified judge will be on call to solve any rules disputes.
The poker game of choice is Texas hold'em, rotating the dealer.
All in-game fees will be sent to the player Yblarbo Janks, of Veto. Corp, who knows numbers and monies and suchlike much better than me. The Deadline is March 17th.
Failure to show up at the pool tables within 10 minutes of being called will be a forfeit.

It's more about pints and meeting people than pretending to be someone from the colour of money, so sure.

Jinx can answer that first question, and part one of that second, but for second part Janks will refund all isk if it doesn't happen.

Last year this was a great way to get into the Fanfest spirit. I would certainly come again but alas, I can't afford the trip to Iceland this time.
Maybe I'll see you all next year.
Fly safe!

Not going to put words in Jinx's mouth (maybe other things, but not words), but I believe this was to allow more participants. Plus, Thursday night traditionally has nothing going on for Fan Fest (Friday night, pub crawl, Saturday Party On Top Of The World). Everyone should be in town by then.
As a side note, I'm happy to see you'll be attending again! Look forward to seeing you there!

You can certainly play at both!
The Fanfest poker tournament is currently scheduled to run over three days. Thursday and Friday will host qualifying rounds for a final table show down on the Saturday morning/afternoon

Edited by: Vendrin on 15/03/2011 23:46:03 Will see if I can get the Rote Kapelle gang there, will go ahead and deposit my isk shortly.
Edit: I'm bringing a friend who just got into the game, who doesn't have that sort of isk, can I cover him for the poker tourney? ___________________

Hello folks, Janks here!
Sorry for the delay, Janks was in Utah for Spring Break and the internet was slower than an anology that colorfully compares to how slow something is.
Confim Janks has received 150 Million from Sanche, and 300 Million from Vendrin.
I'm awaiting on word from Jinx what's gonna happen with what seems to be a low interest.

Janks confirming that not only did he receive the isk, but he shares a flight with these two fine fellows today.
Janks also wants to demand next time NOT TO BE SEATED IN THE LAST ROW IN THE ISLE SO EVERYONE GOING TO THE BATHROOM KNOCKS HIS SHOULDER AND WAKES HIM UP THUS HES UP FOR 25 STRAIGHT HOURS NOW AND THE ONLY THING KEEPING HIMG GOING IS WHISKEY AND COKE
