In.

Just working my pin around now, and see that their are markets  for English/Irish/Scots/Welsh.

Are we just picking one from the 4, for the GB & Ire?

Currently there's a market for Top British player with 11 runners although only BetVictor has prices up.
I'm hoping/expecting that there will be a GB&I market with the 5 Irishmen added by Tuesday. This market has been available for each of the previous years that I've run this competition.
If not, I'll probably just use the GB market instead.
Either way, I'll put the chosen market and prices on the spreadsheet so that everyone knows what they're aiming at.

Having gone from a part time forum reader to a regular TFT reader, this looks like an ideal opportunity to contribute by giving something back.  I will happily donate £25 to the prizepool.

Welcome on board.
There are some absolute no-hopers taking part so you have a great chance of winning.

SkyBet have published prices for all the appropriate markets so, to provide you with as much time as possible, here are the prices that we will be using for this year's competition.

Top Great Britain and Ireland                 16                       3                                    1/5

Top Asian player                              6                               2                                  1/3
Top South African player                      5                               2                               1/3
Top Debutant                                    20                               3                               1/4
Top senior player                            10                               2                                   1/3
Top amateur                                      7                               2                                  1/3


The "fraction of full odds for place" is taken from the SkyBet offering except in two cases where they are not currently offering a place market and I have used my skill and judgement.
