Ways to register:

www.blindvalet.com, click on the menu icon in the top-left corner, choose “join existing group” and enter group code
LFWN
Once you’ve joined the group you can register, see who else has registered, see the blind schedule, payout structure, etc. By using the app during the game you can see the blind timer on your phone, get your seat assignment, see who is left in the tournament and more. I encourage everyone to try the app.
Registration will open one week before the scheduled tournament.

3 – Send me a text at 801-***-XXXX
My goal is to host a full game of 18-20 players every tournament! To accomplish that we will all need to be recruiting new players. I encourage all existing people on the list who will be attending to bring a guest. Just let me know and I will register them. If you want to bring more than one guest please contact me ahead of time.
Feel free to forward this email to anyone you think might be interested.
However, anyone not known to the group must contact me directly to register unless they are someone’s guest.
Dealer information: I will always have a dedicated (playing) dealer for each table. If there are no volunteers I will act as dedicated dealer. In order to open the second table for registration I will need at least one volunteer. To encourage volunteers
dedicated dealers will receive $10 off their buy-in! This discount will come out of the prize pool. I would prefer two volunteers each game. In order to act as dedicated dealer please be reasonably familiar with basic poker rules and able to deal the cards without too many mistakes. Contact me if you’d like to be a dealer.
Food: I plan to offer food for players, including a protein. For this one I’m planning shredded chicken sandwiches, hummus and veggies with dip. Please consider donating to help cover the cost of the food.
Feel free to bring your own snacks.
Drinks: I will usually have homebrewed beer on tap. I encourage all guests who like beer to try a sample. If you are drinking more than a sample I ask that you either contribute to help cover the cost of ingredients or also bring beer to share.
Feel free to bring your own drinks. I have a small fridge you can put them in to keep them cold.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I expect to host about once a month.
I will be switching up the format game to game. I hope to get a strong group going and be able to offer a high buy-in deep stack tournament towards the end of the summer.
If you have any recommendations or requests, please let me know.
Oh, one last thing… Once the tournament goes to one table my second table will be open for a cash game. Players who have busted out of the tournament are welcome to start a game as soon as they have enough players to do so. If you are interested in ONLY participating in the cash game let me know and I will text you once the table is open. It will be a players choice game, but my recommendation would be .25/.50 NLHE.
Someone in the cash game MUST be willing to act as banker and be responsible for buy-ins and payouts.
Thanks for reading! Hope to see you at the game!
