Just to introduce LPPL to anyone who is not familiar.
LPPL holds games in 11 regions around the country, with prizes such as Vegas trips and tournament buy-ins for the winners of the bi-monthly finals - for example, LPPL has sent about a dozen players to the IPO this weekend and sent around 30 players for a week in Vegas during the WSOP.
LPPL has held the biggest tournaments in the country for several years (not counting those that call themselves big by starting games on different days and adding them together). LPPL"s annual National Finals are held over a weekend and start with all players in the same room at the same time, exceeding 600 players on occasion, achieved by taking over a holiday camp out of season.
We have some cracking players playing for us today, which they would need to be to get selected from such a deep pool of players, including several who have final-tabled the LPPL National Final, or been very close to it, so I believe we have a great chance of going deep in this tournament.
