CappersMall High Roller Super Tourney

Snowman has come up with a brilliant idea with his basement belt idea. And got me to thinking about having a large point buy in one. This thread to is start getting interest and names, going to start on Monday Feb 7th, 2011.

500 points is what I like but not many people may be able to meet that
250 is prob the lowest id like to go

64 people would be awesome, but that prob won't happen. Once we decide on a point amount, I'll start taking deposits as it's going to be 1st come, 1st serve

Once 8 people sign up and deposit their points, the next person must wait until we get to 16, and #17 has to wait until we get to 32, etc

start power posting, winning in the sportsbook, working out loans, organizing smaller satellite types, do anything to get in this

Not sure if you were talking to me with this post , but if I can win a trip to Costa Rica with some free points from a forum, I would be very happy. I got a nice house with a mortgage to pay for, 2 nice cars to pay for and probably wouldn't be able to afford a trip otherwise, so sorry I'm not a "high roller" like you bud

I appreciate the response and I'm sorry I offended you but nowhere did I specify who I was referring to or what I was even trying to infer. You then went on a rant about ur nice house and 2 nice cars....thats great

I just thought the title of the thread was amusing and when I opened it and discovered it was over points I chuckled....no more no less.

As far as the prizes go I have cashed in my points before for something and make bets daily in the points book and really enjoy the whole idea.

Don't be sensitive or at least ask me what I meant before going off
