I will post the new players list below and there is still a couple of mystery players registered from previous games that need to be identified. Please help with that and any corrections.

We will have a nice Trophy for the season and thanks to a generous donation from Robert Rohrbough R-8132 of a GOLD SPIKE 4 chip set, we should be able to get a custom chip made for the players but probably only the first 25+- places or so depending on what the minimum order for the chips happens to be. The Player chips will be unique if I can get them made the way I am thinking. Any money left over after the purchase of the tourney trophy and the commemoritive chips will be donated to the American Cancer Foundation in the name of Greg Susong. I am open to any suggestions on how to fund any future events in 2012.

FORMAT: The Tournament is FREE on Poker Stars for mambers only. We will be playing NO LIMIT HOLD EM 2000 chips. Blinds start at 15/30 increasing every 10 minutes. We will be playing for 1 nice chip of your choice sent to the winner of each weeks tournament. If you do not want to play for the 1 chip side bet you can OPT OUT by posting in the chat box NO CHIP SIDE BET PLEASE. in the first few minutes of each tourney. If you choose to OPT OUT of the 1 chip side bet it will not have any bearing on the standings or your chances to win the trophy. The trophy will be awarded to the points leader at the end of the 22 week season points awarded as follows: 1st 4.31 - 2nd 3.05 - 3rd 2.49 - 4th 2.15 as tallied by Poker Stars Home Games. (In the unlikely event of a failure of the Poker Stars talley system, points will be tallied with a simplified: 1st 4pts - 2nd 3pts - 3rd 2pts & 4th 1pt.) In case of a points tie at the end of the season, a playoff tourney will be played with all players included to determine the Champion.

There is still time to get in for tonights Tournament #1 of the 22 game season but please sign up now because with the Trophy Auction Chips ANIMAL #1 & ANIMAL #2 ending when the tournament starts I will be too busy to get you approved. The GOLD SPIKE auction is an open ended reverse auction and ends whenever it ends I guess.

Here is the list of eligible players. Eventually the list will include email & snailmail addresses and I will get tha list to you via email not posted here on the board.

This is going to be a lot of FUN!!!
