I'm happy each time I make the final table and believe it is a nice jesture by NPL to get something to show for it.

I liked the coloured KEY RINGS and hanging them on a message spiral which started to look like a Xmas tree with all the chains hanging down to the discs.

Then there were the "Final Table Chips"!!! Well, they just lay on the second shelf of my computer desk. Someone was saying that they may be redeemable for something later on??? But this could be just NPL chatter as no one from NPL has indicated what or when this will happen.

Change the colour of the """Final Table Chip"""
Some punters take their "Final Table Chips" to the venues. It's confusing when we have the last chip change as they look like the $5,000 chips.

One of the guys had them under his chip stack and went "ALLIN" a couple of times and everyone folded. It wasn't till he actually got a caller to one of his "ALLINS" and was knocked out that I/we realised they weren't $5k chips in his stack.

"First Place Trophy" must be retained in either the current format or the previous clear plastic type.
"Second" and "Third" places are also necessary but I'm unsure of what I'd like to receive.
Final table punters should still get a token of sorts to recognise their achievements.

I would like to keep the trophy and card protector for 1st, a better quality cap for 2nd and a stubby holder would be good for 3rd. I didn't really rate the sunnies at all. NPL socks are a good novelty idea and also the party poker cards were valued prizes as well.
Final table keyrings/ tokens should stay.

one of my venues offered a block of chocolate as part of their FT prizepack .. gr 8.
Shared/Swap the love around after the win.

"NPL Chocolates " might be the way to go....gets my vote ...Hmmmmmm :D


;) ;) chocolates would be something for the Ladies... current prizes seem male centred....'stubbie holders,openers, hats even socks have limited appeal to Ladies...

?? please advise female vs male nos for NPL membership/wins... ;) ;)
