No Limit Hold Em! Sit & Go for 4 Free Giants Tix to start the night!

Hello SF Poker Community! We are giving away two (2) sets of a pair of Giants Tix for the first 10 RSVPs for our 2/3/5 NLHE game tonight (and every game going forward)! It will be a free, Turbo sit & go (around 15-30 min tops) The first person to bust out (with the worst hand as a tie-breaker) will receive a pair of Giants tix. The winner will also get two tix as well. Just a fun way to start the ring game. (\*\*Must buy into ring game to have a chance at the tix!) A little about me: I'm in SF for the next 15 months working on a new card game show...a little about me: I was the Poker teaching consultant backstage on Celebrity Poker Showdown on NBC/Bravo. I had a steady home game in NYC for years with close friends and acquaintances and friends of friends and would like to replicate it here in SF! A few perks of playing in my game: * Free Snacks & Drinks All Night * Pro Dealer (no tipping necessary), Chips, Cards * Good people, Good Poker, Good Vibes--Always * 4 Screens for Viewing Sports--Including NFL Sunday Ticket * Luxury apt, Full Security, w/Off-Street Parking Available * In Beautiful Mission Bay a Few Blocks from Oracle/Chase * You never know when you'll be playing with a Celeb/Sports figure! Why go to an impersonal card room with slow dealers and overpriced food when you can be making friends and connections with a regular crew of good people who have been vetted? (And if you're in, your referrals always take priority--So tell your friends!) In order to get in, please message me a little about you, when you can play, etc., and I will get back to you with further details. First come first served on reservations. I will allow future reservations 1 week in advance. I usually try to have a game Sunday (NFL Sundays! Golf Final Rounds, NBA Playoffs, NHL, & MLB!) and Friday but have had them on Tuesday & Thursdays as well. It's all up to when the gang can come. We usually play No Limit Hold em in the $100-1000 buy in range. D.M.A.

Oct. Tourney

**HOW DOES THE TENNISSF.COM TOURNEY WORK?** **EVERY MATCH COUNTS** **Tennis Tourney Basic Concept** Our tourneys are a single elimination format with a consolation bracket. Meaning you are guaranteed at least 2 match-ups. This tourney format will not be played at a single location over a weekend instead players are given 7 to 10 days to play each round's match. **Expectations - Updated 3/30/21** Our tourneys will be mixed gender unless we have particularly strong female enrollment in a city. The tourneys will be singles based until we receive enough response to open it up for doubles. This is the most competitive format we are offering. We now won't guarantee leveling in Tourney's. If we have enough players we will create two draws based upon perceived level. We strongly advise low level players NOT to join the format as there will be higher level players in the draw. **Our Guarantee** We need at least 6 players to make a tourney bracket. If we can NOT reach this criteria we'll send you an email offering a refund or we'll enroll you into the next tourney with your entry fee. Our hope is to run multiple skill level brackets for multiple draws. **The 7-day money back guarantee expires as soon as the tourney starts.** Tourneys will NOT allow for late enrollment. Players will be entered into the tourney that associates with their TLN's Player Rating. If a **NEW** player (Someone whose played less than 6 matches with our service) wants to join the tourney they will **agree to be placed** in the tourneys highest bracket. (This is admin's discretion) The League reserves the right to remove a player from a bracket if it is determined by match results that said player has more likely underrated their playing ability. **Your Schedule and Availability** We give first round opponents two weekends to play the first match and then each following round will have a full week to play the match. Players need to be available to play for at least the first 3 weeks after kickoff. Players with 1-week work trips or week long vacations during the first 3 weeks shouldn't participate in the tourney. **Seedings** The TennisSF.com staff will seed 25% of the participants based veteran status (Most number of matches played in their career) with the program. If we have 8 players enrolled we'll seed the top 2 players, 16 players the top 4 players. The rest of the players will be randomly entered into the draw. **Consolation Bracket** We will run a consolation bracket for the players who lost their first match. Seedings for the consolation bracket will be randomly selected by the TennisSF.com staff. The winner of the consolation bracket will receive at least a $25 Gift Card. Matches need to be played to crown a consolation bracket winner. **Where to Play?** Because the seeding of the tourney is mainly randomize the higher seed will NOT have home court preference. The league strongly suggests you meet half-way to cut the commute in half for both players. We provide an extensive list of [tennis courts](https://www.tennissf.com/TennisCourts) that have user submitted ratings. If two players need guidance they can certainly email our staff for suggestions. **Playing Format** The preferred playing format for tourneys should be 2 sets with a 3rd set tie-breaker or 2 out of 3 sets. If the two players can't agree the default format will be the 2 sets with a 3rd set tie-breaker. In NYC we will accept 10 game pro set results mainly due to court availability. **Target Audience** This will be our most competitive format. The target audience is for the player who are good sports and love to play competitive matches. **Prize Pool** Starting in 2022 all Tourney's will now have a Cash Reward option. 70% of the proceeds will be awarded back to the Winner, Finalist and Consolation Bracket Winner. The players can choose a Paypal payment and/or items from the Prize Pool at the nominal value of $25 each. Prize Pool is a choice of a combination of Free Seasons, $25 Gift Cards, Items from the Swag Page or donations to Cancer Research Institute or Boston Food Bank. All tourney champions will be receive an entry into the End of the Year National Tournaments at the champions discounted rate. **Cost to Participate** First fifteen players will pay only $29.95. Following players will pay $34.95. A low cost way to play competitive tennis. **[JOIN TODAY](https://www.tennissf.com/join)** So [Join Page](https://www.tennissf.com/join) and we'd be happy to get you enrolled into the next tournament.
