OK, threads have meandered all over the place and I am trying to get all the information together.
Just to remind you the "All Stars" team laid down a challenge to other blondes to form teams to take them on, and if there were enough, maybe to have a knockout comp.
At them moment it looks like we have the following teams who have picked up the gauntlet and offered to hand over their hard earned, or easily won, folding stuff.
All Stars Team:Elblondie, Snoppy, byronkinkaide, Royal Flush and (weakest link) me.
Girlies Team:londonpokergirl, Djinn, Ginger, Jo Handman and The Woo
Team Ironside:ironside, ironside, ironside, ironside and ironside.
Actionjack's "hot women" team:actionjack, Rob "yongsta" Yong, Simon "Chubbs" Nowab, Chili and Dewi-Cool, (foxyminx and therock as reserves)
Team "Cheesey Reebok Stuff it up Flushie"TightEnd, Sheriff Fatman, Heid, M3Boy, The Jagster
floppymongrelknowitalldonkeyjesseys (The floppies for short)RED-DOG, noflopshomer, Wardonkey, I Know It, and Jezza
"The No Name Team"dan, cupcake, tikay, The Nun, and a.n. other
Just to remind you of the structure etc:
OK, the fine print.
What is envisaged is each of the 5 team members each play a single HU match against a drawn opponent. So 5 individual matches in all.
Each member stakes £45 + £5 (the rake going to Poker4charity if all agree)
(the buy in IS negotiable if need be, the main thing is to have fun)
There is nothing stopping a team having a joint bankroll to reduce the variance.
2000 chips, blinds start at 25/50, 15 minute clock.
It maybe best to have a knockout competition, comments from Team Captains please
Are there any other teams? Rather than individuals showing interest, if teams can be discussed on this thread
http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=4523.0and elected team captains post on this thread.
It will be a busy weekend, TightEnd has arranged much to amuse us (with the able assistance of dik9), so it maybe difficult to fit in more than we have already but certainly open to ideas
Good Question
This is what I envisage:
Each team Captain to draw up a numbered list of players, 1 to 5. Lodge them with me.
A draw will take place to see which team plays which.
Lets say Team A meets Team B in the first round. Player 2 from Team A to play Player 2 from Team B.
The initial draw will also tell us who the winners of the quarter finals will meet in the semis
e.g.
Quarter final 1
Team A v Team B
Quarter final 2
Team C v Team D
Quarter final 3
Team E v Team F
Quarter final 4
Team G v Team H
Semi Final 1
Winners of Quarter Final 1 to play winners of Quarter Final 2
Semi Final 2
Winners of Quarter Final 3 to play winners of Quarter Final 4
There will be 5 in each team so the first one to 3 wins, matches should be played out even if a team goes 3 - 0 ahead
Make sense? Comments?
