you need to win 8x a 10x bb one move heads up crap shoots for £10,000 then.....
pretty clueless structures, but there you go
anyone know how much added value they had to put in to reach the £30k pool? I can't find out/they won't/can't tell me
That's premature Rich, I could not get confirmation of the Structure when I asked on Monday. As I like to plan ahead, & I can't clarify the Luton Structure, I've decided not to play the Event now. But I'll be back there on Monday for their "regular" Monday Comp, especially as the League Contributions are now history. (Due to players lobbying Management).

3pm on Sunday I THINK. I say I think becuase when in last week it was a guess on their part
The Spoils of war 64 runner consolation (those who lose their first HU match) shootout is an evening comp. I'll be able to make that but cannot do the afternoon
How can u play in the evening comp? its only for people who lose their first hu match..... u wont be there so u lose ur place right?
Was also told that as soon as the first 8 players get knocked out then the will make up the 1 st shootout table so that people dont have to hang around for hours.

Good luck with your quest down at Luton, tikay. I would be wonderful to see that cardroom blossom as the venue, in my opinion, is perfect.
Don't worry snoops, it's nailed on, the "silly irritations" can & will be addressed. I'm 100% confident of that. There was only one taker for my offer of a £50 Bet, (amazing when there was so much moaning going off) but he's already as good as lost his money.
But will the Moaners & Whingers ever be silenced? That's also a sure fire thing - they won't. Some folks just love to moan, they don't know when they are well off. Rob Yong has got that situation nicely summed up!
Anyone remember what Harold MacMillan said?

Correct, Kev gets it spot on. That was a long time ago, but it's even more so today. We have never had it so good. The shame is, few realise that.

Many have said in this thread that the management have already promised changes and that they are about to be implemented, so where does this offer of a bet stand?
I think you need to get something specific changed, something they have not already agreed to otherwise you can't actually lose can you?

I think you've either qualified or you haven't as I understand it. It's not like the old league where you could wait and if someone didn't turn up you would go up a place and potentially play. All players get £50 for being in the heads up and if they loose they still get £50 and a the shootout game. If some people don't turn up for the heads up the shoot out should be interesting......

I was told no-shows get their £50 and a seat in the shootout. my opponent in the HU would get a bye.

I will not be there
BUT if anyone can clarify the structure of the heads up.
2000 starting chips and 100 200 blinds is quite frankly a joke!!
I have been assured by Alistair all along that the heads up would be a good structure and not a crapshoot.
PLEASE PLEASE someone tell me the "2000 starting stack and 100 200 blinds is a mistake?!?"

I was definitely told by Nina it was 25/50 but it will get checked.
