Flush
To preface, my regular poker crew and I are pretty young and we love saving money while also doing degen stuff. We play relatively regularly (once every few weeks, at least) and COVID killed our plans to make this the Summer of Live Poker.
I had the idea of turning our already regular games into an 8-man, 20-week league. We only really play cash, so I was thinking we would take like 5% from each pot and at the end of each league night record how much was raked and how much each person made or lost. Each week the "rake" carries over, so after 20 weeks there will be 20 weeks worth of "rake." At the end of the 20 week season, we add up everybody’s W/L to determine a winner (whoever made the most, obviously). The 20 weeks worth of rake is spent on getting the crew to Las Vegas for long weekend at the 2021 WSOP. Half of the rake goes towards putting up the 8 guys at a hotel on the strip, the other half goes toward buying the winner of the tournament into an event.
Anybody ever do something like this successfully?
