but,
when the planned cash game events enter south australia, will they be run as 'stand alone' events, with the only prizes given being the cash payouts from the prizepool, or will the 'regular' points system still apply
i.e. will and cash buy-in event still have a leaderboard and still have players qualify for the NPL champs main event from it??
Obvuisly the structure of the tourney might change slightly (no bad beats, redraws) but it will essentially be a similar tourney, and i think there is no reason why people still couldnt qualify for states.
I do have an interest in this one, as a little birdy told me that my regular venue could/might be on the list for proposed cash buy in events in the fiture.
I am pretty stuffed right now and am not thinking so straight.
Leaderboards will apply: players will progress to the $25,000 Main Event.
Tournament structure will be changed slightly, 2K start stacks, tournament structure which includes antes, is slightly more relaxed but has a more accelerated time frame (15 min blind levels instead of 20).
Bad beats and re draws will not be in practice at these events - passports will apply as in freeroll structure but the rebuys are worth 2K and add ons are worth 4K.
All regional areas will have at least one tournament and metro areas will have at least two with the commencement of CBI events.
The prize structure will be slightly different, with set structures for certain "bands" of player numbers, the prize pool distributed will be for the majority cash but some prizes will also be entries into guaranteed invitational events.
I will release detailed information on this later next week, when brain is working!
and 40 to frown
