Title: Sky Poker Linger-Longer tonight, anyone? Free Prizes........
Post by: tikay on January 12, 2011, 04:54:40 PM

This may be a bit of a juggling act, & I'm sure it's doomed to fail, but I'm doing Play The Presenter (PTP) next door, tonight, & running a little Fun Comp.

It is based upon 4 Featured Tourneys tonight, though you only need to play 3 of them.

As an expereiment, probably one-off, the identical Linger-Longer will be available here on blonde tonight, too.

Here's the Rules. Sort of.

You MUST play a minimum of THREE of the FOUR Tourneys.

It will be based upon % of each field beaten. Too complicated to explain right now, but the Spreadsheets will be published during the Evening, & it will all make sense. Ish.

You MUST Post your name on this Thread by EIGHT PM. The first Tourney starts at 7pm, but I see no good reason why an hours grace cannot be allowed. Those who have already entered the 7pm Sleepstack can STILL enter this Fun Comp up until 8pm, & your results for the 7pm Tourney WILL still count.

ONLY blondes who have been a Member of blonde since before January 1st are eligible. You can only be in the blonde one, those who enter the one next door are not eligible for the blonde one, & vice-versa.

I may change the Rules if I've forgotten anything. ;)

Prizes?

Winner gets a £24 SPT Semi-Final Seat for a night of their choosing.

If there are MORE than 20 "eligible" Entries, the Runner-up will get an £11 TSP Classic Seat, for any weekday night they choose.

What are the 4 Featured Tourneys?

7pm - tikay Sleepstack. 10 seater, £11, 5,000 chips. I may arrive late, as I'm busy in the office, but you'll not notice any difference, I rarely play any hands in Hour One of Deepies.

8pm - Double Stack Main Event, 6 seater, 4,000 chips, £22, £4,000 Guaranteed.

8.30pm - TOTTY, £5.50, 2,500 chips.

9pm - TSP Classic, £11, 2,000 chips.

As the scoring system takes a bit of work, I will ask Merenovice, who runs this system for me next door, & so has all the spreadsheets ready-formatted, to keep the Spreadsheets updated for us.

Not got a clue what is going on and how you win. tikay has much to learn!

In the first three. Bulldozer

Nor me, Rich, nor me.

Essentially, it's a Last-Longer over 3 or 4 Tourneys, the results from all 3 or 4  are totted up & the best aggregate score wins.

Sorry I never had chance to go through it with you earlier, I'm flat to the boards here.

Only 18 more Entries needed, or else my bright idea will end in glorious failure......

Post by: MereNovice on January 12, 2011, 05:15:23 PM
It's pretty simple.
Everyone ships me £5 on 'Stars and I draw a winner out of the hat.
I then make up some numbers to confuse Tikay.

You know it makes sense.

Oops! Sorry forgot that the 8.00 is the league jobbie. So unfortunately I've had to pull out of this as I haven't got enough in my account to play 3 if one of them is the £22er.

Bugger.

Late afternoon, & things went tits up in the office & a bunch of urgent stuff came up, rushed out of the office & then got stuck in traffic, & had not Registered earlier, as I usually do.

Rung a few friends to give them my Log-In details, so they could sort it, but none of them answered. Must have known it was me........3 of them have since rung back, but too late.

So I'm now only in the 8pm, Main, 8.30pm TOTTY, & 9pm TSP Classic.

What am I?

Considering some of the available alternatives, I think that you should consider it as akin to "sweetheart".

Nah, I had K-K, (may have been Q-Q, I don't exactly recall) & she had 7-7.
