Title: November 9 Sweepstake - with a difference
Post by: Matt50 on October 29, 2009, 04:41:01 PM
Following on from the WSOP comp that i ran during the summer, i thought it would be good to have a sweepstake for the final in November.

The difference in this sweepstake though is that you will have to pay an amount dependant on your person's current chipstack.

Therefore the money you will need to pay will be as follows:

Darvin Moon - $30
Eric Buchman - $28
Steven Begleiter - $26
Jeff Shulman - $24
Joseph Cada - $22
Kevin Schaffel - $20
Phil Ivey - $18
Antoine Saout - $16
James Akenhead - $14

This will give a total prize pool of $198, which will be $150 to the person that has the winner and $48 to the person that has the runner up.

So, if you want to play you must be prepared to pay out up to $30 which must be received at least 48 hours before the final table starts.  If not then it will be offered to anyone else who wants to play.
Once i have 9 people who want to enter (i am the first), then i will pm 2 independant blondes with lists of names to number against.
those numbers will then determine who each person gets.

Once the draw has taken place i will post up payment details - only transfers to stars or tilt please.

Any questions please ask.

If we get 1 more person than i am willing to run another one.

The draw for the first one will take place soon.
I will PM the list of runners and a list of participants to 2 people not in the sweepstake and ask them to number them - whichever numbers match is the person you get.

Waiting for ChipRich, Rotty and 810of clubs to pay.  Pokerfan has sent me a PM saying he will ship tonight.

Rotty and 810ofclubs not paid or contacted me so going to open up there 2 positions to anyone that wants them.
Deadline will be 12.00 tonight though.
If no-one claims them by then we will have to go without them and i will sort out revised prizes.


Title: Re: November 9 Sweepstake - with a difference
Post by: Matt50 on November 06, 2009, 11:23:53 PM
Wont be back on here until after the final starts, so unless Rotty or 810ofclubs ship the money before the final starts, the prizes for the second sweepstake will be 75% to the winner and 25% to the runner up.
If either Beglieter or Akenhead finish in the first 2 then the prize will go down to 3rd, or even 4th.

It annoys me a bit that people put their name down for it and then cant be bothered to ship the money, but hey ho.

Good luck to everyone.

Rotty shipped the money before it started, so it was only 810ofclubs who didnt pay.

The payouts will therefore be
$150 for 1st and $48 for 2nd in the first sweepstake

$129 for 1st and $43 for 2nd in the second sweepstake.

Please let me know on here whether you want it shipped to stars or tilt and your username and i will send once the result is known.
