In Response to Re: ICE_TIGER RYDER CUP: FOURSOMES PAIRINGS REVEALED. MATCHES START 11AM ON JAN 2ND. STILL MAY HAVE ROOM FOR ONE MORE PLAYER ON EACH TEAM : He's staying with me over the New Year, so I can make sure he's up. He will be up in time to silent rail Ice_Tiger at 11am for sure. But good to start him in the 4th match as it takes him an hour or so to come around. Smart move! :=)

Looking forward to this, hope I can give the PLO8 Champ a run for his money!

Good luck to all.

Yes best of luck Snuffer, should be a good match that one.

The South may need a potential reserve for GELDY if he can't make it, and also the North will need a replacement for THISLTEDU for the singles, as he is unavailable after 3pm.

Hopefully we won't have any "no-shows" on the day, but we may need some contingency planning, just in case.

Any volunteers?

Cheers,

Hi all.

Just a quick reminder for players to "sign in" on this thread when they wake up on 2nd Jan.

Proceedings will start off at 11.00am on the dot, with a one game captain's match (£1.05 Turbo H/Up SNG)

Donna and I will sit out the first blind level (3 mins) in memory of Ice_Tiger.

Please do show your respects by railing silently during this time. Feel free to post your respects to Ice_Tiger in the chat box, after the three minutes is up.

Donna: I will touch base with you on FaceBook at about 10.45am on 2nd, as it will be important to start this match on time.

Regarding the Fourballs and Singles picks, Donna and I will synch up, and the plan is to release the FourBalls pairings at 12.30pm (First Match 1.01pm) and the Singles pairings at 3pm (First match 3.31pm) on the 2nd Jan.

If you have any specific t-time requests or game format preferences, please PM your captain. The schedule as it currently stands is on the opening post spreadsheet.

Happy New Year!

Unfortunately GELDY can't make it. However IrishRose has kindly volunteered to replace him for the Foursomes.

Rose is unable to play the singles however, as too is thisltedu for the North. So I suggest we abandon match 16 unless we can find another reserve for each team.

Cheers,

G

I agree D.

Unless we happen to stumble across two reserves on the day, we can just omit the last singles match.

I suggest if no-one has come forward by 2pm on 2nd, then we just omit it. Although it may be possible that two new faces see what is going on, on the day and want to join in.

However, in fairness to both teams, we will decide on this no later than 2pm on the day.

Cheers,

Can the captains not just play in that spot?

Posted by MAXALLY

Hi Max.

With Misty being unavailable, I am already a playing captain, so it would mean me playing twice, and I think D would just prefer to organise rather than play.
 
However in theory we could have one of the players from the early singles matches play twice.

What does everyone think?

Miss match 16 out, or allow one player on each team to play two singles matches?

Cheers,

G

Hi G   How much are the buy-in's to each Game on Monday.  You say at least 5 each player.?  Don 

StayOrGo

Hi Don.

All the games are £1.05 Heads Up SNG's.

In the foursomes you will play five games.

In the fourballs you will play two lots of three games.

In the singles you will play six games.

So a total of 17 heads up games.

So if someone managed to lose all 17 games, it would cost them £17.85, but I hope this won't happen.

Hope this is OK.

Cheers,

G

Happy New Year to all.

If it helps I can delay my other social function for a bit and play an early single. Also happy to just sit it out if that works better.

Looking forward to a fun day of poker tomorrow.

Sir-Gary

Are these speed HU? I play 5 against Phill regardless correct?

thisltedu

Hi Gary, I think that's correct.

All you need to do is to win all five of your games and we will draw. If I manage to fluke one of my games then we win - easy.

Posted by Sir-Gary

Hi Sir-Gary, yes as thisltedu explained, you play 5 Speed H/Up SNG's against EsssexPhil, and while you are doing that, thisltedu plays 5 games against MonkeyGLB. The scores of the two matches are then combined.

In theory you could stop if your "team" or the opposing "team" reach six games in total, but it's probably easiest/best to just each play all five games regardless.

The two games will run concurrently, so you can keep an eye on your partner and rail if you want, or just focus on your own game, up to you.

In the trial run, there was a lot of railing by team-mates etc, so hopefully, the same will happen here. It really is a team event, which we don't often get in Poker. So will hopefully be a nice experience for all.

All the best.

Cheers,

G

OK m8, make sure Donna schedules you for the early fourballs match.

Any chance rspca  can play your singles for you?

Chris?

Cheers,

G

StayOrGo

With thisltedu and FeelGroggy now both unable to play the singles for the North.

I am going to remove the first and last singles match from the schedule, to take the pressure off a bit.

I will update the other thread with the new schedule.

Cheers,

G

Up to you Graham but I can play till 4.30 if it helps.

Hi Donald, I am going to leave it as six singles matches now, but if there is a no show from the North then perhaps you can play the early one. So we'll see who turns up.

No problem Graham probably better to keep it as simple as possible. Chat tomorrow.
