re stocking the cupboard

If the patronage doesnt pick ups soon maybe having freerolls or money added games at some of the bigger sites would be a wise investment.

But thye would have to be eye catchers of some sort and maybe 1 with an above minimium buy in to see what kind of players will play.

Im just guessing but it would seem since the U.S has the most gamblers and they want to play at a U.S safe site,they are going to go to one of the bigger sites who are advertised on T.V.Use their advertisement to our advantage.

So you draw them in here then funnel them off to the other sites they dont know about using THF links.

I know alot of forums use the big sites to get members,thats where most of us came from.
The thing is we have to be better and find a way to make them come here over a period of time(week or two),so they get use to it,like a habit, and never stop.

It worked before


Maybe throw some approved money in to spice the prize?

Or possibly do the heats and put approved in automatic,
or put a bonus on for each finishing spot taken by an approved member ,that will make them want to be approved(turbo poster delight)

In a money added buy in,scratch a 5.50 buy in and aim higher , to how much Im not sur,e Id suggest 15 minimum.
A number you think will draw players who wont treat it like a` freeroll and lower the quality of play,which will make the people with more money more likely to play.

The money for approveds can be used to make the first league game a $100 added. It will turn up blue in the software and players will check it out and maybe even play the whole league. Maybe make the last league game a $100 added also. Private games on Stars is what led most of us to this place.

This thread has our latest. Odd timing with your post though. Hope thats what you had in mind

The freeroll was the idea that you had mentioned in a post a few months ago along with Billy,Zomm and some others,


Me an Fink were chatting about the 500 added or whatever it was we use to have on Sundays.

I was thinking a short while after we have that and get the blood pumping again we try part 2.


Part 2 is to get an added game ,with a higher buyin to see what you can get in from that angle.
Attract a level above freerollers who may already have established bankrolls,but no allegiance to a forum.

The 1 to 10 mtts have a strong base, the 20 to 30 get about half as much,so I figured somehere in the middle might be the place to hit.

I just wondered if its not an untapped resource,because alot of player wont want to play a freeroll where they consider the play is going to be bad.Plus you dont see many money added games.
