blonde poker forum

Hi all,

I've set up the Blonde Poker Leagues for the coming season. The list of leagues are below.

The deadline for entries to all Classic leagues will be 6pm, Friday 11th August - as long as you have sent payment you will get the code even if it is after the GW1 deadline has passed.

The deadline for entry to all H2H leagues is 11:59pm, Thursday 10th August. This is to ensure that codes are sent out before the deadline.

1) Blonde 100 Classic (Open to All)

2) Blonde 50 Classic (Open to BP members of >3 months and >10 posts only)

3) Blonde 20 Classic - (Open to BP members of >3 months and >10 posts only, if you enter the £100 Classic you can't enter this league)

4) Blonde 10 H2H (Open to All, 80% of the pot for the regular season, 20% for playoffs - top eight qualify)

5) Blonde 25 H2H (Open to All, 80% of the pot for the regular season, 20% for playoffs - top eight qualify)

6) Blonde 50 H2H (Open to All, 80% of the pot for the regular season, 20% for playoffs - top eight qualify)

Hi Nick,

thanks for running the leagues for another season.
I will be in for all the draft leagues as usual so can you confirm me for those please.

is there any chance we could start the drafts slightly earlier or move the 10pm one to a different day?
will do 10pm on the Wednesday if absolutely necessary as I do realise it’s hard to get a date/time that suits all.

will be in for some of the normal leagues also - will pm/ send shortly

thanks,
Paul

I’d also be game for moving the £50 one as I have tickets for the Leeds game on the Wed. Tues and Thurs are good. But Will do a list for auto draft ikr necessary. Cheers!

In for all the draft I’d prefer Tuesday/Thursday as well as I’m on my back from the cricket on Wednesday

Can I slide into an open space for a 20 h2h please

Hey all, happy to move any/all of the drafts from Wednesday to Thursday. Can make them 7/8/9pm on Thursday if that works better?

Welcome back. I’ve added you to the Draft II league.

Thursday works for me

7/8/9pm on Thursday works for me

Cool, drafts moved to Thursday.

No LMS this season?

I decided not to run it this year as I always mess it up and it requires admin during the season that I can’t be sure I’ll have time for.

Glad to see these leagues back! Thanks for running them again.

Hi Nick.
Thanks for organising again.
Can you please confirm me for  the 20 - H2H - 1

Happy to be added to the waitlist for the 20 -H2H - 2 league.

Hi Nick.
I've transferred money for the £20 classic, £25 hth, and 1 £20 draft league.
I really need to try and put more effort in this year and not finish bottom of every league lol.

Thanks for running again

Hi Nick,

Thanks for organizing.
Sad to see the LMS left out as it was one of my favorites.

Good luck everyone!

paid on paypal

Sent the money through for the drafts roll on Thursday

Apologies missed this. Codes sent.

Hi Nick,

have sent £160 for the 3x draft & £50/£20 leagues

thanks,
Paul

In for 3, 4 and 5 and one of the drafts. Unlikely to be able to make either, but more likely to make Draft 2. Will send money shortly. Thanks again.

Hey mate, I’ve put you down for Draft II. Will send the code now via DM.

Payment just sent for 3 and 4.

If there's interest, I might look to set up a cups competition and LMS, on a similar basis that you've run them previously.  No immediate rush to have these in place by the start of the season, so it's something I'll re-visit once the early admin stuff is out of the way.

Thanks for running the main leagues again.

Hey Curtis,

I've absolutely no issue with you running Cups/LMS leagues so if you're happy to run them please go ahead.

Count me in for the cups:)

i might have to withdraw from the draft league
i just noticed they haven't included any Southampton players and i have no idea who any of the other players are and i can't find any mock drafts


:-(

guess coming dead last again won't be too much of a change then

Hey mate,

There are plenty of ex Saints players in other teams :)

So in terms of mock drafts, next to each player in the draft room you'll see a number, that's there average draft position from all the drafts that have taken place so far. So Haaland is 1, Salah 2 etc. It's a good rough guide.

not sure about the draft ranking with Kane at number 2

where can i find  the manager waiver priority and when is the waivers?

Hey,

On the status tab scroll down and you’ll see the next waiver deadline.

This week it’s at 18:15 on Thursday. On a normal gameweek it’s always 24hrs before the normal FPL deadline.

Waiver order won’t be set until the results for GW1 are finalised but it’ll be in reverse league order with whoever is bottom of the league getting the first pick in the waivers.

oh i like that, on nfl fantasy i save my waiver priority as its rolling

Oh i forgot how much i hate this game

weeks i have beaten the average score  W 0 L3
weeks i have been smashed by average W1 L0

week 1 44   avg 43  L
week 2 27   avg 41  W
week 3 48   avg 44  L
week 4 46   avg 43.5 L

Would it be possible to have a list of the payouts for these years leagues, thanks again for running Dino.

guess i need to pay more attention to the EPL didn't realise that a match had been abandoned glad to hear the player involved is on the road to recovery.
Thought i had lost my match up until i logged in today to sort out my line up. Only 4 wins back now from a play off place.

Hey all,

A long overdue update with the list of prizes. As ever, I'm human and there could be errors. If anyone spots any maths that is off or an incorrect number of entries for any league please do let me know. A a reminder that I'm only in the Classic 20 league for admin purposes.

Good luck to whoever I am playing today I am stuck in hospital with no access on phone so stale line up can someone let me know my match up is going please

Anyone able to rub my nose in how bad I got beat at weekend

Hey all,

I’ve realised the payouts for the £100 league are incorrect.

They should be.
£700
£450
£250

edit: I'm an idiot and forgot about the £100 for the cup winner

Hey all,

Thanks to everyone who played this season. I'll list the winners below. If you sent via Paypal I will send back via Paypal. if you sent via bank then it's likely I don't have your details to send back, so please DM me. I will start sending out prizes on Monday.

I've decided I won't be running the leagues next season, so if anyone else wants to take up the baton please post in this thread or DM me. If I play FPL next season I will continue to run the draft leagues, I will keep the organisation of that off-thread and DM those who've played in previous seasons.

DM sent Dino.  I will miss these leagues next season but I thank you for running them this year and all previous years.  It upped my enjoyment of playing FPL a lot and I will miss them.  We all in this thread have you to thank for that.

I'm sorry to hear that, it's been great playing in your leagues all these years and thanks for running them…

Thank you Nick for running these leagues, you’ve done a brilliant job and it’s made FPL much more enjoyable…

I need to DM you with my details, can someone remind me how to find the link.

Cheers 🍻

Thanks for all your hard work in running these leagues.

I'm tempted to try to continue them, but you're a hard act to follow.  However, I'd miss them not being available.

Will see if anyone else fancies taking on the challenge, but might look to try to continue them if not.

thanks for all your hard work Nick
