b) Register as a member of www.Badbeat.com (again unless already registered)

Dream Team Registration Form!

Once your team is submitted all you need to do is play in as many of the 20 on-line tournaments as possible, the more you and your team play the more chance you have to better your starting stack at the live final and better your chances of winning a share of the $100,000.00 Guaranteed Prize Pool!

If you want to participate in Dream Team Season 6 but you don't have a team to join - don't panic - simply complete the Dream Team Registration Form and we will either enter you into an existing team or set up a new team of players also looking to join a team (please state if you are happy to be a Captain if we create a new team for you).

Likewise if you have a team of 2 or 3 players and can't administer the full team of 4 please submit your partial team anyway and we will help you to complete your team with players looking to join a team.

We will accept an unlimited number of teams on-line, however, the top performing 100 Teams / 400 Players will be able to participate in the Live Final due to restrictions on numbers at the Live Final Venue.

So far I have had a chat (online) with both Lee Harrison and Craig Tranter who feel they would be interested ..
Main concerns are times that these tournaments will end,:ie silly o'clock in the morning, and probably not being able to commit to all 20 games

My understanding is they will start around 7 00pm or 7 30pm so I'm guessing 1 00 /2 00 finish, like most of us I have to work Friday so I wouldn't want real late finishes with no sleep hardly

Also as for committing to all 20 games, well I also would possibly miss one/two/ three games.. sometimes things happen, cant be helped .
So we'll take it as it goes, it's not a sprint but a marathon and it's the LIVE final where the WSOP tickets are won ..

WELCOME TO THE BADBEAT DREAM TEAM SEASON 6

If anyone's interested, leave a post below or PM me .. If we have more than Four interested, No problem We could possibly Register Two teams or if odd number , say 5/6/7, we can register One team and give the names of others to Sandy (Bad-Beat Poker) and she will get a team filled from others with odd numbers ..

Its always going to be a problem at getting 4 players to be available for all games,think you at a disadvantage if you miss out on points by missing games.
think the answer is more than 4 players in a team,is it not possible to register 6 0r 7 players,I know only 4 can play live game,I could be super sub and a cheerleader at live final. gl

[Tony2005]

Benny i doubt i can play in that many but....


Im happy to play for you when you cant make it...


But this would have to be on your account....


I will chat to you about it next week once the christmas festivities have finished...

[bennythedip2]

Hi Taylor, ,, I dont think you can enter more than 4 per team.. (not sure but can check) I played this before (event 4)... In that event you could enter 6 and weekly nominate your 4 players for that night..

However I think the problem was/is the winning team has 4 Vegas places, and it would not be fair on the other two left behind..

The point having 4 players only, as long as the 4 are going to play say any 16 of the 20, it wouldn't really matter ..

The thing is to play as a team, by individually trying to get into the top 20 or as close as.. playing the long game ...
It's total team points that get the added chips for the final ..
A few missed games wouldn't matter to much, it's all about being steady consistent as a team over the 20 weeks ..

Really Why ?

It will be new to me, but it's 'ipoker' so be the same as most of the others ..

[Pkrplaya]

Because I didn't play regularly enough apparently. Said something like if you dont play in the next month you will lose your credit. About a fiver I think

[taylormade]

Im interested in participating in this event,would be delighted to join a team of like minded players. Im genuine and good for 19 games if not all 20. Could do with a goal for next year,quit smoking goes out the window when I wake up on New Years Day. gl
