Title: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Nit Tendencies on January 30, 2014, 04:09:33 PM I was just looking at the leaderboard scoring system for the upcoming UK Poker Championships, and I figured that where there is a leaderboard, there must be prop betting!
Here is the scoring system under the "Overall winner leaderboard" tab, is anybody interested in a small bet? If we get a few together we could get some decent side action going. http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/news/the-sky-poker-uk-poker-championships/2380 Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet.

Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Nit Tendencies on January 30, 2014, 05:45:28 PM I don't want a huge bet obviously, just a little bit of friendly competition. It would be nice if we could get a few of us.

In Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Yian on February 01, 2014, 01:33:16 PM Could make it messy and do a team thing again...
Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Nit Tendencies on February 01, 2014, 03:06:14 PM Team thing is really difficult Yiannis because of how hard it is to know whether someone is going to play 1, all or no events.
Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Nit Tendencies on February 01, 2014, 03:15:09 PM I was thinking maybe £100 a man? I'm probably going to host it on https://stakesandladders.com/ to make it a bit more fun. What are people thinking?
Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: cambridgealex on February 02, 2014, 07:28:15 PM In if it's on stakes and ladders, think it's a really cool site / idea. Could be the next big thing for this sort of thing.

Post by: pleno1 on February 02, 2014, 08:56:38 PM im prob in, why dont we just do stars though? dont we pay rake on sandl? if a lot of people in sure but if we all know eachother seems best to do it on stars. are we voiding the HU unless it gets a certain amount of runners? would ideally not want to play it if it ends up with 5 runners and we just end up all playing to try and win this haha

Yup, this. Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Nit Tendencies on February 04, 2014, 12:51:53 PM I'm sorting out the pools today on S&L so watch this space.
Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Dubai on February 04, 2014, 12:56:04 PM I'm up for one/two massive bets against anyone really good for motivation to actually play. Don't mind having a minimum score required to win, and don't mind giving you odds against. Will be funny cos we can 2 table stuff and the smaller events will play much bigger etc. Pm if interested

Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet. Post by: Nit Tendencies on February 14, 2014, 10:20:43 AM So, inspired by this I got chatting with the guys at www.stakesandladders.com, and we decided that there is some fun to be had by putting on some pools bets!
There are two pools available; a heads up match bet pool where you get asked who you think will last longer out of two players (usually friends or rivals who you should be familiar with) an the most correct answers wins the pool. The second is a fantasy pool where by you pick one player from each comedy group until that forms your team. I know this isn't exactly what I suggested before, but I will probably run a small (£100 probably) private leaderboard bet anyway for the guys who don't want to stump up the money to get in the ballers' (Dubai etc.) bet, I just thought this would be a bit of fun, and I really want to support my friend Honeybadger who has worked hard on this project for a while now. I am going to make a new thread all about it which can be found here: http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=63259.0 Title: Re: UK Poker Championships small leaderboard side bet.
