No idea TBH...

Surely, if it is proportional for both 888pl & APL, their prizepool has also gone down????

That might be a harsh comment above, and I don't know the true figures. I only know what I have seen online on 888, and that certainly hasn't been supported by anyone in NSW as far as I am aware.....

Think about it Tim, that is essentially what we are doing in SA.....

888pl v's APL
888pl. Sa, Vic, Tas & recently Qld
APL. Sa,Vic, New, blah, blah...

888pl takes over Apl, Nsw gets the biggest S/F prize pool"was 888 ever in nsw? Npl maybe"
888pl Sa gets shafted after probably doing the most of any states for 888pl with promoting 888 through the success of its players.
(I don't think it is right that an adopted son gets more than a natural son). Will it soon only be 888pl Qld, Nsw & maybe Vic that has a league?
You never sh!t on a mate to get newer mates.
Revenue v's loyalty.
10k is not enough for the Sa S/F "how much has Sa poker generated for Fullhouse group over time compared to Nsw?"

Well said Harps.

I really like this line: "how much has Sa poker generated for Fullhouse group over time compared to Nsw?".....

I would say that the loyal SA & VIC poker players have actually provided FHG the ability to Buy out APL, and now find themselves shafted because of it??!!!!

This is a worry.....

Its the way I see it Jo so what Nsw have more players. But have they generated money for Fullhouse Group for years like my bros in Sa have? NO
For them to be bought out & have the majority of the pie STINKS.
Our states Vic & Sa are what got Fullhouses' poker where it is not the mismanagement "corrupt management" of Apl in certain states.


p,s. I have no problems with 1 state getting a bit more cash, but 50K more than a state that got this league where it is is a joke

Are you guys serious? Really?

Living in the past is no way to make business decisions. The one thing FHG is very good at is seeing what is financially feasable and what isn't. It's forward thinking like that that is the reason we now own APL and are destroying NPL on a national level now.
And it most certainly is not a case of robbing one player base and giving to another, at least not in the extremes you are making it out to be.

You do not have access to the proper business figures, for that matter neither do most of us either. This decision was taken by head office in Melbourne and it is the way it is now. Considering where this company started and where it is today, I think a little more faith is warranted.

The route you you want us to take is too look after every individual region first and look at the big picture later is awfully close to the business plan of those who were previous in charge of APL, the "Corrupt Management" as you so eloquently put it Harps.

And look where that business plan got them.

Boys, you don't know facts, you are making far too many assumptions. I suggest you actually think about what you're saying before you continue down this route.

Caleb,
1 thing most successful businesses do is stay loyal to their original customer groups. Why because you know the same will be returned in good faith.
The others are gold mines " maybe you hit maybe you don't "
I don't think it is fair to offer $60k to an Apl state that has just been equired by FHG & only give $10k to SA a group that has been there from the start.
How is that fair or just?
Can't you see what your own player base is saying in this thread " & I believe they are speaking for other SA888pl players " In saying that this could = the end of 888pl in SA.
