Lastly - Boss late reg rules.... have to ask... Why?  I don"t think Stars has ever done this with late reg. Seems daft for something to be advertised with late reg, only for someone to find the registration closed immediately after the start - surely from Boss"s perspective, that"s a negative restriction on their own business?


Boss has a much smaller player pool than Stars. The reason for stating a minimum number for late reg. is to avoid situations where a player can late reg and be in the money already.

Agree with reversing the order - 5 card draw is a bit of an anomalous game to some people, and putting it up front is likely to get more runners that putting at the end when a lot of people will avoid it because they have no chance of winning the league. I would suggest putting the NLHE round at the end to try and maximise attendance.


I like this idea. It"s too late to change the order for next week, but will look at changing the order for the week after.

First time i"ve joined in on this and there seems to be no feedback?
A league is pointless without a league table.
Enjoying the challenge though.

A few thoughts.

I"m enjoying the Bunch of Fives (even when getting wickedly outdrawn) although sometimes I forget to play.

Why can"t late registration just be for the first level or first two levels, thus giving the slightly-late people enough grace to get in, without making it silly?  I don"t like late registration at all, really, even though I have taken advantage of it myself due to forgetting about the tournament (I"d need 120 minute late reg or more some nights!)   However, I don"t see why it has to be a whole HOUR as it seems to be on all sorts of sites nowadays. 

I would really like registration to open more than 24 hours in advance - it"s awkward when it"s only 24 hours.  That applies to the league games as well as the 5"s.

I like having a range of different games.  I don"t mind what order the games are in.  It doesn"t matter if you don"t know the games - IIRC somebody won a WSOP bracelet recently who spent the breaks reading up on strategy for the game - which he hadn"t played before.

I agree that having an up to date league table is important for the enjoyment of the game and so people know what they"re doing.  I loved watching the Premier League Poker final group heats where players were consulting printouts of standings and points to work out whether or not it was correct to fold aces pre-flop etc. (and the lecture that Dwan gave Cates was comedy gold too, but I digress)

And finally, I nearly choked at the suggestion of a 5-handed heads-up tourney.  Thanks, Scousebill  :o ;D

Hi Dodgyend,

Thanks very much for posting table. Much appreciated!

I have just arrived in St. Kitts for the Caribbean Poker Party, meaning I"ve been off the grid for the last 24+ hours.

I"ve just sorted wifi for my room, so will post everything up tomorrow (and the following days).
