Close Season Online Mini Series on Blue Square
« on: September 22, 2008, 23:04:50 PM »
We are currently looking into running a mini online series before the start of Season 3 for all APAT members.

Initial thoughts are that it would take the form of a series of $20 freezeouts with 3000 starting stack and 15 minute levels.  We would look to vary the days to give everyone a chance of playing.

Payout would be as per standard Blue Square tournaments.

Points would be awarded for the top 9 finishers, with your best three finishes counting.

The overall leading points scorer would win the added value of a guaranteed seat at the National Event of their choice for season 3.  (If there is a serious amount of interest, we might be able to talk Des into throwing in a drink at the bar aswell)

If that wasn"t enough value, Des has threatened he might even play a few himself.


Please post on this thread if you would be keen to participate in this series and as always with APAT, let us know your views on your preferred days/buy-in/format etc.

Yup, count me in. Friday nights less suitable for me but I"m sure I"d be able to work something out given enough notice.

I"ll be up for it. Format seems fine. A mixture of days seems good too.

Can we have a six-max NLHE, a PLHE, PLO and stud event too?

Also, as, BSQ has antes on some of its NLHE tourneys, can we have antes too, seeing as there will surely be antes in S3!!
