Who’s top dog on PKR?

Those of you who are familiar with our little corner of the web will know that every month our Community Manager extraordinaire Danski chooses the PKR tournament player of the month. Dan spends un-told hours poring over tourney results, hand histories and other critical factors that only he can understand or explain choosing the winner.

That’s all well and good, but we thought we’d add another wrinkle to the story by giving you the opportunity to choose your own PKR stars. So, every Friday we’ll be announcing the PKR tournament player of the week.

How do you nominate?
You can’t enter yourself, you have to be nominated by another player (see, it pays to be nice!). This is your chance to let people know when you’ve seen a great play on a cash table, an epic win in a tournament or even a great post in the forum. Let us know, we’ll examine the evidence and announce the player of the week every day on Friday.

1., Open up an email

2. Put ‘Player of the week’ in the subject line.

3. Finish this sentence..

4. “I think should be the PKR player of the week because...”

5. Send it to us at news&events@pkrtech.com

What do you get?
We’ll give both the player of the week AND the person who nominates them a ticket to a Stage 3 Masters qualifier worth $45 + $4.50!

What if more than one person  nominates the same player?
We’ll pick the best, funniest, most interesting and/or insightful nomination - so it pays to get creative!

Just in case the email does not get through...

I think megazord should be the PKR player of the week because when I was heads up with him in the bigshot $500 buyin tourney I got disconnected and he sat out while I reconnected. Now at the time the pressure was on, there where several Aussies on the rail cheering “Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, oi, oi, oi” (felt just like the cricket) every time I won a big pot… When it was 3 poms against 1 Aussie there where comments about how that is pretty fair odds. So as the last Pom standing he could have felt the need to take advantage of my disconnect, but like a true English gentleman he didn’t and aside from the obvious glory of winning over an Aussie there was $5k difference between 1st and 2nd I was so impressed I had to let him win … lol.

the e-mail adress is not working!!!
i wanted to send this:

Hey !
I think Pacsu has to be chosen the player of the week because he has started to play recently and he is about to get to know the game.
He is playing in small stakes tournaments and cash games and he has already achieved some good results.
He wants to learn and I'm sure he will become a good player. He only plays on PKR and he can be a good example for those who are learning to play (online) poker.
He is very friendly and nice with everybody and only plays for the joy of the game.He is my friend, but we don't meet yet, i never see him in life.I want to give him this opportunity to be ''the player of the week''. I am sure he will be the player of the week as he deserves it..
Good luck Pacsu!
GO Pacsu GO !

I would nominate Xchimin for the player of the week , because he did not played one single hand last week and did not tilt as he faced no bad beat!

Therefore he deserves the nominee, because this have never been achieved by one!

Email address not happening at present???

"I think jdNorway should be the PKR player of the week because when I posted my first forum entry about the crap run I was having, through no ones fault but mine, and was looking for some advice. He/she quickly parted with some hard learnt no doubt, expertly explained knowledge.

I put this knowledge into practice and it worked a feckin treat (2nd in a Dp & St 6 seater, should have been 1st, but that's another issue, after a very long dry spell, from which I was concerned there was no return)

Three cheers for Jd- Hip Hip.... Hooray,
Hip Hi...you get the message.

ThanX

Email adress is broken or does not work.

"I nominate Killermitch as the player of the week. Rarely have I seen someone who deliver these kind of results on a daily basis. He has the right amount
of guts and spirit that it takes to be a real poker-pro. He isnt one of the "pro's" that keep yelling and bitching people who are "donking" or getting lucky.

What I find the most impressive is that he manage to keep his head cool even though he usually suffers a massive badbeat very early on in the tournaments he enter.

So.. Killermitch really deserves this nominee Happy"
