Test of Re-entry Series

[ctm]

Work toward a three day freeroll tournament series with these rules:

• Open to anyone
• Prize pool will be $10 for every entry (or rebuy if we use rebuys)
• Try to have re-entry code working and tested and used
• Minimum prize pool per day: $100
• Maximum prize pool per day: $1,000
• All three events will be WSOP Dealer's Choice Event 5 (which allows a single re-entry)
• Same parameters as WSOP-Style dealt on July 5th

Here's what I need to do:

• [x] Sanity check the state of the re-entry code
• [ ] Crank away on re-entry support (#1241)
• [ ] Look for source of prize pool
• [ ] Write SQL for creating the tournaments
• [ ] Create Event in Facebook
• [ ] Post to BARGE list
• [ ] Send to other people who might want to mention it
• [ ] Consider setting up Zoom

FWIW, I was thinking I could crank this out in time for Thanksgiving, but after looking at the state of the re-entry code, I think that would be too stressful for me, so instead of announcing the date now and then pushing hard to get re-entry working by then and dropping back to rebuys if not, I'll work fairly hard on re-entry now and figure out when to schedule after. It may be that I do these at Christmas or even mid December.

With all the table-splitting bugs that popped up, I wasn't able to get re-entry support finished. I currently have far too many issues labeled high priority, so I'm deboosting a bunch.

Nope. I didn't get this done in time for it to be a separate series before WYWAE. Luckily, the bugs found in WYWAE 2024 weren't showstoppers.
