The Archive - Dec. CONTEST: Observation Skills -WINNER ANNOUNCED! PokerGuru - 30.11.2008, 20:20 Post subject: Dec. CONTEST: Observation Skills -WINNER ANNOUNCED!Hello to PC Members Only!
Of course keen skills of observation are important to good poker players.
Therefore, let's do a check on yours!
For this contest, post your answer to the following question below in this thread.
Deadline is midnight EST on Christmas Eve.
By golly, I'm serious about training you to look carefully at the first page of ANY site! The ENTIRE first page! Fortunes have been lost by players who thought they had won them, only to find out the site did not have to pay them because of something stuck in a paragraph on the first page, called the portal page. Many judges of law have said, "You should not have missed it because it was right there on the very first page!"
NOW you know why I have been making that an issue! For quite some time! Long enough that none of you will forget it! Forewarned is fortified!
Now here is the question: On our own portal page, I write a long feature article every month. This month of December, how many paragraphs were not there in November? [Do NOT count any single line as a paragraph.]
Tee hee. I'm tickled. I worked a lesson into a contest! And if you have read this far, you have just completed your study of that lesson! WTG!
And I am so sure that every one of you got it - and now understand it completely - that I don't even have to give a test to find out! Love it! And love my poker scholars! You make teaching so easy! Thanks!
Here are THE RULES:
Post below in this thread that you are entering the contest.
Deadline is midnight EST on Christmas Eve.
The winner of the $30 cash prize will be drawn from the names of every member who enters.
You must have 3000 PC points to redeem for a $30 cash prize.
You must have completed the "My Payment Method" page at PC.
You must have filled out your profile page COMPLETELY, not leaving out the name of your country, your occupation, and your interests.
NEW RULE AS OF OCTOBER 2008: YOUR POST MUST CONTAIN AT LEAST 3 POKER SITE BANNERS. It may contain more than 3 if you wish. If you do not know how to do this, the problem is easily solved by PMing ojisplayin or Mel3 or myself or any other volunteer.
If you will be a volunteer to explain how, please say so in your entry.
Good observation is wished to all!
Your Prof Guru
Your Guru

PokerGuru - 19.01.2009, 09:27 Post subject: Well, gang, you all could use a little sharpening of your observation skills, because NOBODY got the right answer!
But I went ahead and put all your names in my winner-drawing-box anyway, and it shot out the name of:
ojisplayin for $30
OJ, I am really really hoping you will make a deposit with your winning into one of our poker sites with a banner, for the sake of our forum!!! But that is just a hope. Congratulations!ojisplayin - 19.01.2009, 15:39 Post subject:
