NHL playoffs

[Corvin]

Being that the NHL playoffs are drawing near, maybe me can get some type of contest going. One thing I had in mind is each person playing picks a team before the playoffs start. That is your team to win the Cup. At the end of the playoffs whos ever team won gets the sticks, 2nd gets a cut also. Doing it this way, 16 people will beable to enter. The team you pick is the team your stuck with. Once the regular season ends (hopefully every spot will be filled) we will begin picking teams. We can each put in 5 smokes. Winner takes 60 2nd takes 20. If your intrested let me know. If we ahve some intrest Ill begin spot selection. If anyone has any other ideas let me know.

We can also do a side bet type thing between two people. 5 sticks per side bet (or whatever the parties involved agree on) pick the winner of a particular series.

I'm down if you don't mind me sending from the great white north. I'll take the Sens since I'm just outside of Ottawa.

Sorry I havent checked back in I almost forgot about this thing. Was on my way to work today and though $hit I better check it out. Thanks for updating the list BDuranni. 7 spots left and the playoffs start tonight. Anyone want some extra teams or have anyideas what to do with the open spots. Only a few games tonight nothing that will determine the winner so another night or 2 to figure it out than we should close it. Also Duranni I will take that bet how much you willing to wager?

We could play this like a cash game...if your team gets knocked out, or if you just want to play two hands at once, you can buy a 2nd team for another 5 sticks.

how about 1st round loser get a 5 cigar buy back. (on top of the 5 you already lost). Can only buy back after the 1st round. If anyone wants an extra you can buy in a 2nd team now.
