I had a Texas Hold'em Tourney on my forum last night. It went flawlessly. I had a buy in and switched from vBCredits (my board currency) to casino_cash for markers (500/1500 respectively).
The one thing I did make a mistake on... I didn't create a special usergroup to lock others out of the casino. We had a few people straggle in and start playing with their 500 casino cash credits they are allotted via default. I created a new usergroup for the next time around.
Prizes were:
-Payouts were in casino cash converted to forum currency (so while buyin was 500, we paid out 1500, or the equivalent of casino cash they won)
-Special CT bragging on the poker champ. (will go to the next winner, so only 1 has this title at a time)
-$5000 in currency delivered to the new usergroup "Poker Champion" (to which I attatched the CT, obviously)
Just figured i would share an idea with you all to generate significant interest in the casino... it was great fun.
