I set up the tourney bot in IRC again.
Server: irc.xelium.net
Channel: #tourney
If you're using mIRC, you can get a script to give a nice GUI to this game. It's not too pretty, but makes it a lot easier to follow the action and keep track of the cards. It should be relatively bug-free, but I've forgotten most of the details- havent touched the script since August.
If not, you're still welcome to play.

Important: If you have to leave during the game, quit it first! There is NO METHOD the bot has to handle players who quit without having them quit manually. If you have to take a break, type "p vacation".
Basic instructions regarding the IRC ends:
To join the game, type /msg TBot p join [a password]. The password is anything you choose.
To quit the game, type /msg TBot p quit.
To start a game, type
p start. Don't do this until you are sure everyone's ready; this will start the game and no additional people will join.
Commands if you're not using the GUI:
p check
p call
p raise # (raise by # chips)
p fold
p splash (goes all-in)
p cards (displays your hole cards)
p board (displays your board cards)

Instructions:
These are copy-pasted from the old post, but they should still apply. This is how to set up the mIRC plugin. Very useful, though not required to play.
1) Download mIRC if you haven't already done so, from
http://www.mirc.com
2) Once downloaded, set up your IRC nick, and exit out of the connect dialog.
3) Download my IRCPoker script. It resides at
http://www.rit.edu/~jaw3289/ircpoker.zip
4) Unzip the full contents of the archive (ie, extract that outer folder too) to your mirc directory. Your mirc directory should now contain an IRCpoker folder and its contents.
5) Back to mIRC load it up, and exit out of the connect dialog. Load the script by typing:
/load -rs ircpoker\ircpoker.mrc
You should see a welcome message appear confirming that the script has loaded. You only need to load the script once.
5) Join the Xelium server (irc.xelium.net). Do this by typing /server irc.xelium.net
6) Join the poker tournament channel, #tourney. Await further instructions there. You can fire up the IRC poker script itself by right clicking in the channel and selecting Start IRCpoker.
