Poker League Details

 

This years Poker League started on 31st July 2004

Each tournament we play will have a 10% additional charge which will be put into a savings account.

For each game played in, 2 points will be awarded - so if you come to all 3 tournaments, you make 6 points on the day.

Additionally, if you make a final table appearance, you will be awarded the following points: 

1st - 10 points

2nd - 8 points

3rd - 6 points

4th - 5 points

5th - 4 points

6th - 3 points

7th - 2 points

8th - 1 point

The league will run for approx. 11 months.

At the end of the 11 months, we will have a "play-off" for the main prize.  This will be a buy in for a chosen event/events (depending on how much money is collected) in the festival at Luton in August 2005.  The play-off will be in July/August 2005. The play-off date will be decided at least a month prior to the game, so everyone knows whether they can make the play-off or not.

The top 16 people in the play-off are the ONLY people permitted to play.  If anyone drops out of the top 16, their place will NOT be filled by 17th or 18th place etc

  The top 16 players will have their top 10 scores/points calculated to determine the amount of chips they get to start with in the "play-off".  So, for example, if you win every game over the 12 month period (I know it's unlikely but this is hypothetical!!) then you would have accumulated 12 points per game (2 just for entering and 10 for 1st place).  Times that by 10 (top 10 scores taken into account only) which gives you 120 points.  We will then times that by 50 to give you your starting chips of 6000.  The "play-off" will be No Limit Texas Hold'em.  We anticipate an average starting stack of 4000 at points count.

Your top 10 scores will be taken into account AS WELL AS including the 2 points for every game attended.  This is basically "rewarding" those who come more often.  So the moral is, the more games you come to, the more points you will start with in the play-off.  

When the play-off has been won, the person who wins will play in the tournament that we choose and that person will play for 50% of any prize he/she wins.  The remaining 50% will be split between the other 7 players who made the final of the play-off.  The percentage structure is as follows: 

1st = 50% of any winnings

2nd = 19% of any winnings

3rd = 12% of any winnings

4th = 8% of any winnings

5th = 5% of any winnings

6th = 3% of any winnings

7th = 2% of any winnings

8th = 1% of any winnings

  So basically, the person that wins the play-off is playing for the other 7 finalists as well as themself.

The Tournament Director has exclusive right to disallow any player from entering the playoff at her discretion.

Good luck to everyone who participates.
