[Sugar_Free]

Especially if Carl"s picking JM

In too

[hi_am_chris]

Any suggestions for tweaks to point structure or to the type of players you select?

[mylesfdo]

Ok open for discussion again  

Think we need to get everything set in stone at least 3 weeks before start of series.. Which starts on Tuesday 27th May.

Categories?.. Discuss

Previous ME winner?

UK player?

Female player?

European player?

American player?

How many wild cards?

Or do you say scrap categories and allow to pick whole team of players regardless, how many 6? 8?

Scoring?

10 for win?

5 for RU?

3 for FT?

2 for cash?

Bonus of 15 for player who scores most points through series (WSOP Vegas only)

Prize pool..

£10 winner takes all or split between 1,2,3 or £5 each?

£5 series sweat and additional £5 ME sweat?

Maybe some added prize aswell but that"s a maybe  

So who"s interested? Really need 15-20 people to make it worth while and need a volunteer to post a excell sheet for clarity.. I know Chris is a willing helper as am I to collect scores..


Discuss..

Id be in.....input fwiw.....drop the US player but keep others and maybe 3/4 wildcards.

Scoring looks good....£10 split top 2/3 depending on number of entries imo and an additional extra £5/10 ME sweat.

In whatever decided though so just my opinion obv!!

[KarmaDope]

In, will have a think about categories/points tomorrow.

[hi_am_chris]

agree about not bothering with an American player

[fandango]

agree about not bothering with an American player

yes agree pretty pointless  

[mylesfdo]

yes agree pretty pointless  

everything else looks good though Carl.....can just add and additional wildcard for the US player!!

I"m in. Think that the points are too heavily weighted for the win.

Blonde do this and last year their scoring system was

Bracelet = 5
FT = 3 (top 8 in HU tourneys)
ITM = 1

For the main:

N9 = 10
ITM = 5

This gives everyone a chance going into the main

Looks good to me.. What about bonus points for the player who scores most points over series? Or scrap that idea?

Scrap it personally.

Categories I like the following:

Previous ME winner
Brits
Ladies
European
High Stakes
WSOP POTY Top 10 from 2013

plus 2 wildcards.

Each category has a list of 10 players chosen by the organiser which we have to select one from, giving a team of 8. One player chosen as captain for double points."

Thoughts?

Like the idea of the lists Adam and prob makes it easier for tracking points etc.....do we then get to pick our own wildcards or are they from list too?

What u mean by high stakes?.....iveys negreanus etc?

Wild cards have to be your own choice IMO would/could win it for the owner..

+1

[KarmaDope]

Wildcards definitely own choice

High stakes would be people like Ivey etc as guessed above.
