Edit: The buy-in for the tournament will be $5+$.50.

Second edit: The invite code is “foucault”, I’m told you need that join. Sorry for the confusion.

Third edit: Invite code is all lowercase.

I’m pleased to announce that I’m starting a Thinking Poker League on the new PokerStars Home Game feature. We’ll have a tournament every Sunday at 16:30 ET, coinciding with the start of the Sunday Million. Whomever is at the top of the leaderboard after 10 tournaments (unless it’s I, in which case we’ll go to the second place finisher) will receive a three-month subscription to Poker Savvy Plus and a free, hand-by-hand “leakfinder” analysis of a NLHE tournament or cash game session of his/her choosing recorded by me and posted on Poker Savvy Plus.

The first event will be this Sunday, February 28, at 16:30 ET. The format for this week is 6-handed NLHE with deep stacks and a slow structure. I’m very open to feedback on this, though, so if you join the league, you’ll have an opportunity to offer your thoughts and suggest alternative formats for future weeks. I’m also open to scheduling separate set of tournaments at another time if a number of people tell me they are interested in playing but can’t make the Sunday time. So please leave me a comment if you have any requests or suggestions about the Thinking Poker League, and hopefully I can accommodate everyone who’s interested in playing.

I’ll also be hosting a Thinking Poker cash game through this league on weeknights, with the first game taking place at 20:00 ET on Tuesday March 1. The format for that is also open to discussion but for the first game will be full-ring NLHE with $.10/$.25 blinds and a 100-250BB buyin. The cash games won’t have any affect on the league standings but should be a lot of fun!

To sign up for the League, please find the Thinking Poker League in the PokerStars Home Game tab and request to join. The Club ID is 312467. And again, if you have any suggestions, please leave a comment.
