We have planned for a mix-and-match of days and times, so that nobody will have trouble fulfilling the five (5) Series entries.  Please indicate if more than one of these dates are impossible for you.  Of course, anyone is welcome and encouraged to participate in more than just the mandatory minimum; the "extra entries" simply don't count toward the Jackpot Challenge.  Just to make clear, there is no single tournament where all of us are required to be present.  We will pick and choose.  Some tourneys, maybe all of us will be there.  Other tourneys might only see one or two of us.  The Series will run from January through April 15, 2008 (Tax Day).  That will leave the whole summer for our Beeg Weenah to go make us a fortune at a big tourney.  (And, if everyone had fun, we'll be talking about the Autumn Circuit of the DVPC.)
