nothing of an interest to report
no change to points

Any chance the tourney schedule will go back to as was next month
very few decent tourneys between 8 and 9 IMO

[trafficjam]

My best  tonight was 85/349


Well done Technology seems you have the bonus points

2 h 5 events 67.5 points

(trafficjam top 5 22.5,9,8,7,5)



technolog's final table wins him last night's bonus


In answer to h, I doubt the schedule will be changing for mext month. The network have removed some guarantees and changed around to reflect a seasonally slow time.

The question for you guys is, what sort of league do you want for mext month? More of the same? Any ideas for something different?

i have 43 points after last nights sterling performance in a 300 runner replaced a performance in a 299 runner

AS to league you need to ask the ones who didn't play tbh..

thanks Simon

I am asking those who didn't play this month, but did previously.....of course...and anyone else!

I must say I preferred it when a game was picked once or twice a week,   I am sure most people would not mind playing maybe one higher priced game and maybe one or two smaller priced re-buy games. 

I cannot understand why more people don't enter.  I only play poker for fun myself and I do realise that many of the Blondes are serious poker players and it is their main livelihood, but there are many Blondes, like me, who cannot afford high priced games and play for fun, perhaps they could say why they are not interested. I also think it makes a person more disciplined in their play when they are playing for points.

You might be surpised to see how few Blondeites are dependent on poker for an income. If I Was I'd Starve

A regular league night (PLO included 1 week please!) for a BP only with say points from 1st out to winner plus on  non reg. nights a similar scoring system to what we are doing in June might get more with say top 4 scores in the month counting so volume only helps to aincreae rake BP benefit from?

I like the leagues, but like Nellie, I only play for fun, and only when I have the time. Last couple of months there has been very little of that, unfortunately, and when I do get a free evening, there is often a choice between various things (catch up on some telly, watch a film, play poker), and the drive to play poker seems to have lessened somewhat now there isn't a specific tourney, or set of tourneys, to compete with other blondes in. I'm also resticted in that I can't play anything before about 8:30 because before that is kids time, and I can't really commit to a particular day each week as my free evenings are fairly random days of the week. Obviously with the change to the scheduling, it makes it hard to pick a set of tourneys that will appeal to all, and are convenient times and buyins. Personally I prefer to play something between £15 and £30, upper limit is bankroll, lower limit eliminates some of the donkeys that we all love to see in poker, but are frustrating in MTTs.

I'm also quite happy to not just play NLH. I enjoy the other games, and often try the low-limit tourneys for fun (HORSE, which I've got a decent record in, 5 card stud, badugi, etc). Not sure how many of these are regulars on DTD.

Anyway, that's my excuse, not sure what I'd suggest though.
