August ends in a draw

[TightEnd]

A dramatic night

Four teams entered the final Virgin Challenge in contention.

The Dookers fell by the wayside....

Team Bluffer came mighty close, two in the top six including the winner

Team Silo had one finalist but consistent scores elsewhere

Dog Wardens came 3rd and 4th, enough to TIE..one place higher and they win!

Final Team Standings

So EITHER Maldini for Team Silo or Slim99Slim for The Dog Wardens will play in a GUKPT

Top Players in August

The question is who?

We have a proposal.....


a Freeroll 10 player SNG on a convenient night, the team that provides the winner sends the player to the GUKPT, we'll arrange it tomorrow


are the teams in agreement that we go this route?

[Graham C]

Yeah I guess so,

Why not have a 10 man play off sit and go with points awarded the same as the month's competitions, the lowest team points wins and sends their winner to the event (using the existing winners of course)

I assume by "the player" you mean maldini or slim not the SNG winner

[Colchester Kev]

the proposal is .. i get the 10 players pre entered into a STT to be played at 8.30pm on sunday.

[Sheriff Fatman]

I figured this was how it'd go - seems the fairest way to me.

The other alternative would be to let the 2 contenders play heads up, but that's probably putting too much burden on them.  I like the SnG option better.

Works for me.

I like this option better actually, but not sure I can stand another game of tense team tactics.

It does lessen the luck factor though.  I vote for this in hindsight.

the Added value prize Was a seat into GUKPT Plymouth, this starts next Thursday

With the draw causing a delay, there is no problem with the eventual winner choosing to play the later GUKPT London or Blackpool, your choice


Funds will be transferred into winners Virgin account as soon as we know who wins!

We are in your hands here. If both teams want to do this rather than relying on providing a winner from the SNG, let us know

I think this would be painful...

Personally I like Rich's proposal on the other thread - that we split any GUKPT winnings ten ways. We drew, so we split it. The probability is, with of course due respect to maldini and Slim, that no-one will win anything from this - but it would be nice to have the interest in it.

Then we'd just have to come up with a revised payout plan, which shouldn't be too hard.

Maldini and Slim could then just play heads-up to see who actually gets the seat.

[Moskvich]

Also, after tonight's tension, I'm not sure I could deal with it again...

[ripple11]

 heads up for me.....its been all toooooo much.

[slim99slim]

I think STT silo style to determine player.

Then 10 way split.

[TightEnd]

OK I have to be up early.

Kev and I will review feedback tomorrow and announce the final plan then

As we've both said, we intend doing a 10 runner Freeroll SNG on blonde Sunday 8.30pm, with you all pre-registered.


two scoring options...winner gets the seat for maldini/slim, or lowest aggregate score of the 5 players. If we need to decide on that we will but hopefully there can be consensus before then

whatever split the two teams decide of the £100,000 is fine by us!
