[b2c6b9610e1]POLL for a future promo![/size2c6b9610e1][/b2c6b9610e1]
Would anyone be interested in an [b2c6b9610e1]online Texas Hold'em Tournament[/b2c6b9610e1]? Here is the idea of how it would work.

1) Complete a 1/2 credit offer to enter
2) Receive the password to a private tournament hosted by the GiftOrb Network
3) There will be $25 added per entry, to the total prize pool.
4) The GiftOrb Network will also add in extra prizes to the total pot.

Example If 10 people decide to enter, there would be $250 in prizes! Then the GiftOrb Network will also add in bonus gifts to the prize pool!
A sample winner's payout could be
1st - $150 + bonus gift
2nd- $70 + bonus gift
3rd - $30 + bonus gift


Also, if anyone has any suggestions as to which online poker site would be good to host something like this, please let me know. I'm trying to find one where users can easily sigh up, create a play money account, and enter a password protected tournament.

A poker tourney would be a great idea! Would you need a specific program or play it on a website?

It depends on which site we use. Some sites like pokerroom.com can be played right off your internet browser using java script. Other sites such as partypoker require users to download the software. I'll update everyone with more details if there is enough interest.

I think it would be great, although you might want to add more options for users to enter. A lot of us, like me, can't fit in a half credit offer...

I would agree with patrick about that but don't really have any suggestions as of yet. But I like idea of a poker tourney a lot and would definitely be interested in participating.

Not quite sure yet. I just can't do offers, so probably anything that doesn't include offers would be great for me. I'll keep thinking though for a good idea )

Sure, I'll leave that option open. Since everyone that enters means an extra $25 is added to the pool, I'll allow people to pay $25 to enter too.

I am also making a new promo only site and I'll allow users to refer people and use their credits to enter.


Any suggestions as to what online poker sites allow free private "play money" tournaments?
