Thanks everyone
Here"s my own views on the scoring/POTS
The Main Event has to have more points than the others, the buy in is more than double that of the other events and it keeps players interested right til the end. How many of the 80 players would have played had it not have had the double points? Anyone sat outside the top 5 without a score already would know they cannot get any added value and then the game becomes kinda pointless, so having an increase in points for the ME is a must.
The way I would work out the POTS though would be a mixture of the two, take the points into consideration of course, but then hold a vote by the moderators/admin as to who they believe deserves it most. A number of factors could be used, how many events did they play, how many cashes, points score and even near misses.
I personally played 5 games, donked the stud, made final 16 in the HU (got unlucky when 92% fave on the turn to bust the other player out and then never recovered) and then cashed and made final 4 in two events so I am happy with my overall play, and cannot thank APAT enough for the work they do for us all.
Finally, I"ve said it before and will have to say it again, many thanks Matt for the support and the donation to the charity is gonna be very welcomed indeed, medals and prizes are great, but if the money we raise can save lives down the line, then thats my goal!
