    • You have nothing to fear but fear itself... or Gordo...... Comon' people step it up and sign up. Be not afraid... Make my path to the Shooting Star a difficult one... (yes, the William Hill is kicking in)

    • we're down to 9 again! if we don't have 10 by 10:30, you can probably count me out.

    • Hey Craig,
      I am assuming if Kat is playing, Art would be playing too. So, we still might have 10.

    • Well, I'd like some confirmation ASAP. If this game doesn't happen, I'd like to put together a game myself at 1pm.

    • I will be having a satelite to the $2k Shooting Star at my house on Sunday 3/8...

      One table satellite to the 3/15 $2000 event at the Bay 101 Shooting Star. We will roll with 8-10 players. The winner of the sattellite will share 20% of any winnings from the event with the rest of the original satellite table. By replying with a 'YES' you are agreeing to the terms of the satellite.

      Cost per player:

      *$200 buy in = ten players.
      $223 buy in = nine players
      $250 buy in = eight players
      $286 buy in = seven players

      Last year's winner of this event picked up $148,000.

    • Maggie, I hope you have better luck with this one than the effort by the Stable. Disappointed that a few players dropped to collapse the game... Oh well... Perhaps you should start a new thread... See you @ Sheila's if not before....

    • I played in a $2k satelite yesterday and got 2nd place and my money back... ( I really wanted the ticket)

      I have three strong confirmations already for the game at my house...

      This would be a great win for all...

      BTW, I placed 10th in 2007 in the $2k tourney, won $7500...
