Player Biographies
I thought it would be nice to have a section of poker player biographies on Surfers. Therefore I have decided to turn it into a little contest
Guidelines Do general research of the player, and make some written notes. Further research any lines/angles or details you find particularly interesting. Then write the biography of the player in your own words. DO NOT COPY and PASTE anything from any other site. Not even a single sentence. I will be checking thoroughly. Who to do the biography on? Any major poker player. Preferably someone with high winnings, big events wins, and/or a colorful past. It can be an online player, but, if so, they must be a big baller. How to enter PM me the name(s) of who you are doing. I will post the names in this thread (dont post yourself) so people know who has been "taken" or "bagged" Time Line Biographies to be PM'd before 11:00 ET on 15th April. Voting will take place a few days after the deadline. Voting Every member with 20+ posts will be allowed 5 votes (ie 5x1). They can vote for their own article. Rules Once again, do not copy and paste anything from anywhere else on the web. Bans/demotions will happen for those that do. You can enter as many times as you want, and you will be eligible to win mulitple prizes (potentially all of the prizes!) You may only "bag" 3 names at once. Eg If you send me a PM with 3 names, you will only be able to give more names once the biographies of those 3 have been received. This is to stop people monopolising loads of the top players but then only delivering on a few Members must use all 5 of their votes (eg they cant just vote for their own 2 articles and leave it at that) Prizes 1st $15 2nd $10 3rd $8 4th $6 5th $4 6th $3 7th $2 8th $1 (Multiple wins from the same person are allowed) Good Luck to those who enter
