If that cannot split the teams, then each team will pick their top four players, meet in the carpark outside of DTD and the team of the last player standing will be the higher placed team.


If you end up tied with Liverpool, it might be advisable to just let them have the place.

Players score points 1st - 9pts, 2nd - 8ts, 9th - 1pt.

The middle table is the total number of points each team scored in that matchday.  The top three teams then earn matchday points 3,2,1.

Exactly the same setup as last year (Well, apart from it being top 9 instead of top 10, but that is simply because we are playing 9 handed on Betfair)
youve put 1 = 9 pts 2 = 8 pts 9 = 1pts what does 2 3 4 5 6 7 positions  get  ???

Is there any news on the league prizes yet ?

Tried selling it yesterday to some locals and it is hard when you can"t say what is up for grabs.

Please excuse me if this has already been mentioned, I couldn"t see it anywhere
.


Standard Betfair Poker payouts for each matchday, with no registration fees.


The top team in each division will receive 4 added value seats to live events (Awarded to their highest points scorers).

Division 1 - GUKPT Seats
Division 2 - APAT Professional Seats
Division 3 - APAT Amateur Seats



I really cannot see why the different divisions have a different prize value?

Surely we are paying the same amount to enter, playing the same amount of games, but the reward for winning is £750 less, or £925 less per person depending on which division you are in.

Obviously pleased to see some reward, and well done on negotiating the prizes through sponsorship, but the disparancy is far to great I believe!

This will mean a higher prize fund each week in division 1, but does not alter the amount of rounds or the entrance money paid in the other divisions by the participants!

Agreed, maybe as something of a compromise in Season 2 the prizes could be better split equally over the divisions as:

Division Winning Teams Top Point Scorer = GUKPT seat
Division Winning Teams 2nd top point scorer = APAT Pro Seat
Division Winning Teams 3rd top point scorer = APAT Amateur Seat

Would certainly add some (needed) incentive to get players into the lower divisions.

Isnt the opportunity to build a team and instill a bit of pride, along with the opportunity of promotion to a higher division, and added value prizes not incentive enough for those in the lower divisions? Instead of focusing on what is being offered other teams, you might be better served by focusing on what added value and promotion opportunities exist for you.

Last season the incentive was the same for every single team created. Division 1 teams were relatively successful in attracting players and achieving some results, and are now being rewarded for that hard work and commitment. APAT are focused on the bigger picture and I can see what they are trying to achieve with this league. :)

Meh just an idea. 

Kinda agree there should be some reward but some teams will never be able to attract the numbers to compete solely down to geography.
