poker tourney

was wondering if anyone else would be interested in a lcb members only poker tournament , or if its ever been proposed before?

Yes we used to run regular private tourneys but with the limited USA sites (which enables everyone to be able to play), sites aren't so forthcoming.  I have asked for freerolls to the available US sites but I've not had any replies yet.

I'll try again and see what we can come up with.

I remember 2-3 years ago we had a really nice tournament in Full Tilt poker.

Yes we did - we had a regular tourney each couple of months.  They were great fun.

Not sure how everyone feels about pokerstars but its really easy to set up thru thier site. I also play on a few bitcoin sites that might be more open than the big 3, something to consider anyway.

I'd love to play some LCB poker tourneys,it was such fun, I'd have to agree with you Blu,finding a site that accepts the US is difficult...sooooo sad!!!
If you are ever able to do it,Blu....I'm in!!!

that would be fun fun fun ..  poker stars is good for me .. I already play there. 

I had no idea it was that bad i mean i knew about the online gambling laws but seriously they dont accept players from the US, that boggles my mind how those laws havent been reformed by now . up here in canada not much better as of late with netteller and skrill not allowing canadian deposits to gambling sites anymore but most sites accept canadian players . I hope theres change in the near future for all my US online gambling friends fingers crossed!!!

If ever you decide to play a private tourney for LCB members i suggest pokerstars home games even players from the US can play there.

That would be fun, I hope you guys arrange some tournaments i will be playing for sure :)

Nitrogensports.eu allows US players.  Its browser based and they have several freerolll tourneys already for other affiliate sites (some no where near as big as LCB).  Blue - Maybe try that site. 

I love tournaments and often participate here https://pokerglobal.info/poker-rooms/americas-cardroom/overview/. 90% of Americas Card Room players are players from USA. You will be able to find all the ‘standard’ poker game varieties within the Americas Cardroom lobby, as long as play some really rare poker games. So, you will be able to enjoy such poker forms as No Limit, Pot Limit, and Fixed Limit in the games of Texas Hold’em, Omaha and Hi/Lo, 7 Card Stud and 32 Card Draw. However, the vast majority of players are playing Texas Holdem.

but they dont take US players?

Poker stars lets USA players play there. I play in a monthly freeroll from another forum there every month unless i forget about it..lol  :)

Yes it would be very cool. I have never seen it before so it would be very awsome. Really looking forward to it to happen :)

THAT WOULD BE GRREAT!! HOW ABOUT INTERTOPS POKER?

To play could all players, you can play free poker chips on PokerStars.net and receive prizes here with points.

I think is a good idea. If not a freeroll, maybe we can buy an entry at the tourney from the lcb shop 

We are all interested to see a freeroll, maybe a buy in would be nice if we can spend it on the LCB shop it will help many of us to use their LCB money and it will also be nice to increase the prize pool size. I dont suggest pokerstars because there are many poeple their and the password will be given to non LCB members. You can maybe provide them a list of eligible members and they register them and the tournament will be restricted in that case it will be ok. I suggest partypoker, 888 poker, william hill poker, Titan is restricted for my country. For USA players you can choose cardroom or ya poker or intertops poker.

i  would be interested in freerolls and shop entry payments those would both be awesome. Seems like a strong interest in the idea. It would probably take a site wide newsleeter sized announcement to get everyone on the same page though

I am fan of poker, and I am also fan of tournaments, so I like vey much the idea of LCB freeroll poker tournaments. But it would be even more nice if members could buy entry with LCB chips in the shop as AKQJT suggests. 2 good ideas!

yes that would be awesome
