Words spread in hushed whispers about an underground poker tournament. A few fliers were passed around as well... looking like they were drawn up by a fifteen-year-old.
Quote:Do you think fate has it in the cards for you?
I, "M", invite all of Meranthe to a game of Hold 'Em! For a buy-in of 10.000 coins, you could make yourself some unimaginable riches!
There'll be a minimum of five players, with a maximum of eight (depending on the interest). You get 9000 chips for the buy-in (The house takes a 1000 coin cut). The game is winner-takes-all, so for a buy-in of 10.000 you could potentially make 45.000 coins with five players, or 72.000 with eight!
We'll allow a single buy-back per player, for 15.000 coins, you return with the table with 9000 (The house takes a 6000 coin cut). This could potentially double the final payout!
Interested? All you need to do is send me a letter to sign up - you must do this beforehand, of course. Participants will receive a letter informing them of their accepted entry.
Details to contact this "mysterious" M person were written below.
[Forms here! One entry per person, please.]
Exact date will be discussed with the participants.
(by the profound darkness i hope i don't fuck this up i barely do stuff like this. if you'd like to offer your help somehow i'd love to receive it)

With the game going... VERY late into the night, eventually, the winner was decided!
