APAT Blonde team?

[kinboshi]

Why don't we do it the same as last year, three tournies and the top 8 finishers (from any one event) get a place?  Worked well and got people involved, and I managed to bink a seat by erm.....sitting out.

worked well for the people that could play the three tournaments......

I could only play two, and I got in.

what happened were there only 8 entries???

Nope - it was the $10 nightly donkfest.  Loads of runners.  I just ran good.

I'd like to put my name forward

Perhaps we should have a team of past Blonde Bash winners

that's actually not a bad idea!

I'm not personally keen on the donkament idea as those games are just too swingy. if we want to do it over 3 games or something, would much prefer private tournaments.

I'm happy to drop out of this to give others a chance. I had a go last year so I'm happy enough with that.

In my opinion it should be a similar selection to last year. $10 wednesday / thursday / friday donkament on Blonde. Highest finishers get the spots.

Adam. If it's just the money that's a problem I'll put you in an mtt for 90% of the winnings + stakeback.

It's not just me though Matt. There could be others that want to play but can't deposit cos they're skint or for other reasons. I was just using my situation as an example. A freeroll gives everybody a chance to play.

Either that or get Tighty to give everybody a random number and use http://www.random.org to generate 8 players!

anyone wanting to play in the sat but cant for financial reasons can get staked they just need to drop me a pm

Action stealing mofo!!!!!!!!!

no we offer a stake into an event (lets say the 10k on blonde at 7pm) for later in week then we pick a team each for those that apply the winner is the one with the biggest return

Don't do one off low buy in stakes anymore mate. They are without doubt the most -EV proposition ever.

Only offered it for this particular thing because it might help Adam out.

has to be a 3 week $10+1 tourney to see who gets in.

8 points for 1st down to 1 point for 8th.

after 3 weeks the top 8 get into the team.

1/2 prize money withheld to go towards team entry fees, with the rest of it given out each night as standard tourney payout.

Sounds fair to me.

Give the folks who support the cardroom the chance to go. (That counts me out btw )

Might be an idea to have one or two picked at random as well for people who can't play online.

Thats the best idea I've heard! Top 6 from the league. Other 2 random.

Think it needs to be decided and sorted before then in an ideal world.

Last year we chose three nights of the $10 donkfest on blonde, and people played in them.  The highest 8 finishers in any single event got into the team (well, it was 10 in the team last year).

This means that people who can't play on a certain night aren't too disadvantaged.  Last year we ran them on consecutive Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights and most people who were interested in playing managed at least two of the three nights.  However we do it, people are going to be disappointed as there are more people interested than there are places in the side.

Not sure that a 'league' system is completely fair (especially if they're on the same night each week and that means people can't play at all.  It might work if there is a series of tournaments with the best three finishes for each person counting - similar to the way the blonde league worked.  This means people aren't penalised if they miss one or two of the events, and everyone has a chance to get three finishes recorded.

Just thinking out loud.
