CALLING ALL PR AUSSIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jun 3, 2008 10:01 PM. Post 1
Well there has been a lot of lobby support for a live aussie game, maybe under the pr banner? How many Aussies have we got out there to support such an event?
and where is the majority of players willing to go?
so the first vote will be city of choice, remembering it should be reasonably central/accesible for most aussies.


then the next to work out would be buy-in, remembering again travel and accommo dation some are going to have to pay out.

I guess is this something we would like to see come together for the pr aussies to get together and have a fun time and meet up or do we want a full blown
serious 'only here for the prize' type event..

ok.. feed back guys and gals..
SYDNEY
  18.4%
MELBOURNE
  63.2%
BRISBANE
  5.3%
GOLD COAST
  5.3%
GFY????????
  7.9%
Total votes: 38

I vote for Sydney and I'm there with bells on very_happy
Maybe it should be a fairly fun type of event with more emphasis on the prestige of winning the tourney ?
Maybe we could get some feed back from those peeps who went to the live UK tourney ?

Anyone in Sydney know a good venue ?

I'm in wherever but obviously Sydney is more than convenient.

If need be can accomodate a couple of out of towners if funds are tight.

Hey, got a few things to add (I've been thinking about it a bit)

Firstly, Gold Coast would be better for me, but I could live with Sydney. I voted for the Gold Coast. Just vote for the easiest place that would be easiest for YOU to get to, and we'll make it a majority vote.

Any way I can get this cheaper for my jobless, student self would be good (especially if it's in Sydney), so I'd happily take up any offers of a seat in a car (I'll chip in my fair share of petrol money) from the Byron Bay area, and any offers of a roof over my head. I'll do the dishes! Also, for the same reason, I think, hopefully, some people might need a few months to save up some dough and get organised

A few things we should think about (some are already mentioned in the OP):

Location
Obviously Sydney will likely turn out to be the most convenient overall
Venue
Star City Casino ring games? Or should we set up tournaments and play home games?
Buy-in
If we set up some home games, we could just play tournaments/cash games all night.
Length of Stay
Just for a night? A weekend? A week?
Other activities
Would anybody be interested in other things, like going clubbing? Or things like playing some board games? A huge game of Monopoly?
Miscellaneous
Nothing else for me to add here, really. Just a prompt for somebody else to add anything else.
Oh, and I'd definitely choose fun meet up time over "full blown serious 'only here for the prize' type of event. Note: That's different from "play like a donk" :P.

Hopefully that'll give some people some food for thought.

- EJ

i'll be in only if it in melbourne!

we can hire out a room at crown or even just all play in a tourney together as a team and split the prize?

Or of coarse we can play cash games most prob be $2/$3 nl or theres the $5/$10 nl which can be pretty entertaining at times.

What does PR think of sponsoring us, to spread the word of pr. Would be some good advertisment for them
