2. A minimum of 10 Band teams need to be submitted by 1st August 2015 in order for this promotion to run.

For clarification, is this 10 in total or 10 per 'band'....ie, 10 blonde teams....10 other teams etc etc?

If the latter, how many are signed up as of today?  (if you know)

Got a couple of questions about this team event

To me the amount of chips awarded to the final table is unfair compared to say 40th to 49th (55000) its like half the total amount of 1st place (100000). But if you get to the final table you only get 1000 chips extra for each place. There seems to be an unbalance here imo you should get rewarded extra for getting to the ft.

So the table suggests that 40th will get 55000 chips in the daily major, now will this still be awarded if only 100 people enter or will there need to be 400 people to enter to activate the 40th to 49th places? Otherwise half the field are going to get a huge amount of chips compared to the ft % wise.

If this is the case 40th getting 55000 chips with only 100 people entering then i can see a lot of teams qualifying really quickly and the amount of chips being brought to the club is going to be massive. I know they get divided up but its still going to be a lot of chips in play, so i guess the blinds will be quite big at the start of the live event to counter this?

Here is the chip table, if its attached correctly never did it before

Thanks for the feedback, will take it away and review.

Will the points structure remain as advertised? I agree with the above feedback, will play either way though. Thanks

UK Team Challenge News!


In addition to the UK Team Challenge Welcome Pack announcement today (see other posts), we've tweaked the Points structure for the online tournaments.  This was done to address several issues raised by you, the players.  Namely - on partypoker software, multiple players get awarded the same finishing position, thus a 200 runner tournament can only have 80 "places" recorded, thus loads of people would be getting the same, high points for not doing very well, so we've adjusted where the Min Points are and the number of places per jump.  Furthermore there was genuine concern from players about players late registering and getting an instant 50k points, which now can't happen.  A couple of players have asked how Re-Entry works, and I can confirm that a players 'best' finishing position will count.


Hope that clears up the issues, only a few days to go to get your team registered to claim the Welcome Pack! Don't delay, do it today.
