The Micras Poker Tour has been founded in Mercury. The Tour will run a season of Texas Hold'em games, which will culminate in the season finale, the Micras Poker Championships.

Deposits to poker accounts will be made in SCUE credits, with 1 credit being equivalent to $1,000 in-game dollars. This in-game currency is used for tournament buy-ins, with pay-outs being determined by the number of entries to that particular tournament. The overall rankings will be sorted by winnings, and the top players will be invited to compete in the Micras Poker Championships. The games will take place on http://www.bluffave.com and the link to the group will be sent by PM to entrants.

Winnings will be paid out in SCUE credits at the end of the season, although funds can be retained in the in-game accounts for the next season upon request.

We should just make sure none of the SCUE to Bitcoin outlets are open, because someone might say it's an illegal gambling event or something xD

It's a private room, so I guess that makes it legal :P

What if we don't have a convertible currency with SCUE?

Then you should make an account in another nation that will allocate you starting funds.

The in-game player name should be the username you signed up to http://www.bluffave.com/ with. This is so that I can transfer the correct amount of money to the right player (and also invite you to the private room in the first place).

To buy in-game currency will cost 1 SCUE per 1,000 in-game dollars, with a minimum of $100,000.

I still think you should reconsider finding a way to allow non-SCUE affiliated nations to participate. I enjoy poker and would love to play, but I wasn't going to join the SCUE before; certainly not now that many of my concerns about the concept were vindicated by the recent Trade Equality Act farce.

Well I suppose you could just join anyway but not receive any winnings via SCUE.

As long as that offer is also extended to Jess and Kris.

Account Created: Rook. How is the minimum buy in going to be $100,000 when bluffave only gives you 500 Bluff Bucks at account creation?

The offer is extended to anyone who doesn't wish to spend SCUE credits.

You can be given an amount of starting funds when you join the group, just PM me back when you've joined and I'll add it to your account.

Warning: apparently those who don't supply the proper tribute of SCUE funny money will not be permitted to partake in their tournament winnings.

So the whole exercise is rather pointless.
