North London Poker Club - General Discussion

[Nuggle]

Good effort from the team tonight.

Congratulations to Robert Ingoldby and Skipper Richard Iwaniak on making the final table and scoring points, another 19 games to go guys, still plenty of time  

2 of the NL possie on the FT can"t be bad. Well done guys.

Thanks for the support from the team. I was actually quite lucky to make it that far!

Can someone please clarify the table scoring though? I thought I was guaranteeing points for the team but in the table North London it shows us a zero points?

The top 10 players earn individual points each matchday.

The top 3 teams from each matchday earn 3,2,1 league points.

Unfortunately Norht London finished 4th last night.  So although you earned individual points and cashed, the team didn"t score.

It takes a bit of getting used to, but bearing in mind the top 3 teams go through to the grand final, this is a very fair scoring system.

Sorry I missed it will have to put money on my account...usually play on a different i-poker site...

Just wanted to say a special hi to Linda....will you be coming to the ladies" tour this year at all?

Hi Carey

Missed you in the league game. I may try to make one or two of the ladies events, depending on venues and dates. But with the way the scoring system  is (with the 5 points for attending and then 1 to 10 extra for making the final table) it makes it very hard for me to actually get up to the top of the rankings. The first year I made two final tables out of the four I played (I think there were only six events) and ended up with less points than somebody who played all the events. As hubby and I are going to be in Las Vegas again this year, I"m not sure.

I"m also deliberately concentrating more on tournaments that have men and ladies in the field.

Hope we"ll see you at an APAT event. When you get your Blue Square account you must try and qualify for them through the satellites - their all good fun  

Hoepfully will see you on the league tables.

OMG I did it again...i"m a sucky teammate....putting kids to bed and stuff gets in the way on the sunday..but i"m gonna go put my money on now and register for next week  I understand about focusing on the other tourneys more...There are 4 new venues this year including one in Spain.  And if ya get 30 points you can get into the online qualifier. 

I"ve had my blue square account for over a year now just never play on it..lol But will start now for sure.  I know blacker from our essex home games
Well hope we did well tonight couldn"t find the games listed because they must be over already.

So how did everyone get on over the weekend? I"m now 0-5 in terms of day twos reached from tournaments played, so maybe I should stick to writing instead.

Made my first day 2, 1/5 for me, went out in 30th and had a very enjoyable weekend at another great APAT event.

[linziwan]

I went out 53rd just after 1am on first day... nearly made day 2. Just one of those tournaments, build a nice stack, loose most of it, build it again, loose it again. Tip for future events for myself.... never get into a pot with a scotsman - I know I"ll loose (and it"ll always be on the river...!) sigh



Good fun on the second day too so well played all who made it.... tried to rail for a while but I get bored soooo easily when watching..... just had to play the afternoon tournment when it started and managed to bubble the final table on that one too..... ggrrrrr

See you in Cardiff

[Logie66]

Just thought I"d wish everyone good luck for Sunday, highly unlikely I will be able to participate for the next two league games, but I will be rooting for you all with my cocktail  

Looking forward to seeing some points on the board !!

North London FTW

Good Luck all!!

[antthecat]

im playing this sunday but not on form live so we will see how my online will go. go north london/norfolk poker club

[linziwan]

I"m playing on Sunday - lets hope my own team mate doesn"t try to steal my blind with a so so hand, and then suck out on me when he"s called my all in over the top of them.... lol

Not stating we should be playing soft against team mates but there has to be a bit of sense in a league. Especially when that player went on to loose what was a winning position before scoring any points.

[monkeyman]

If we"ve got the same level of entries as last time, I"ll sit out this week.
