The competition will feature six tournaments with the best three results from the six events contributing to each person's score.
The scoring will be a little different to recent "linger longer" competitions.
Your score in each event will be based on the percentage of the field that you beat - this will take account of the differences in field sizes.
For example, if there are 100 players in a tournament and you finish 20th, you will score 80 points. If there are 200 players in a tournament and you finish 20th you will score 90 points. It will make the scoring a little more difficult to understand for some people but I will answer any questions that people have.
Everyone who enters the competition, plays at least three of the events and finishes above Tikay in the table will be entered into the Santa's Sack tournament at 19:30 on 28th December.
The competition will feature the following six tournaments:
7:15pm £2:20 Deepstack
8pm £11 rebuy main event
8:15pm £5:50 Deepstack
8:30pm £5.50 rebuy Totty
9:15pm £2:20 Deepstack
10pm £11 TSP Classic
I hope that everyone can agree that there is something for everyone there. A real chance for lower stakes players to pit their wits and poker skills against the "big boys".
Tikay will be playing this on his PTP id "Tikay10". As he will be (potentially) playing six tables concurrently it's just possible that he won't be very chatty while at the tables so please don't be offended if he doesn't respond to any comments.
Please post on this thread before 8pm if you wish to take part in this competition. I will post a list of all entrants soon after 8pm.
I will be updating this thread during the course of the evening with the latest positions so that you can track your progress.
Remember, the most important thing is to have fun.
registered for all 3 deepies run good please!
haha u stalking me
Are you implying i may stack you or make your life harder trev, have a wii bit of confidence sir lol
I had one foot in Santas sack Wednesday night but ended up on the prize bubble, so I'm back for more tonight!
"...Tonight in a dazzling display of defiant dexterity Tikay will be taking on all-comers in a "linger longer" competition on Sky Poker......"
Sounds more like a display of breathtakingly misplaced confidence, imo. Did I really say that?
Good grief. I'm bricking it here.
Oh well, it is what it is, let's do it.
And please remember what Mere also said it's all about having som fun & banter. Enjoy!
I'd better go Register.
Then I'll try to raise some interest on Twitter & FB, please tell your mates, the more the merrier. And the more I stand to look silly.....Hopefully, we will get plenty of interest in the 3 Deepstacks. They cost about a Tenner in Total to enter, & we really want eveyone to be able to get involved if poss. You ONLY have to play three of the 6 Featured Tourneys, remember.
I will be mostly "off-forum from now until 7pm, as I have been offline all day, & need to clear my e-Mails & some other stuff. And my planned "early night" at Luton went belly up, it was 5.45am before I left G-Luton this morning, & I had to be up at 8am to drive home to Derbyshire. And back.
See you later, & don't forget, let's get plenty of Entries, tell your mates!
TIKAY10.
7:15pm £2:20 Deepstack
8pm £11 rebuy main event
8:15pm £5:50 Deepstack
8:30pm £5.50 rebuy Totty
9:15pm £2:20 Deepstack
10pm £11 TSP Classic
This could be an expensive night, if I don't cash, & finish well down the League, and Richard-Big-Suit ain't gonna be a happy bunny either.....
Remember to get your mates to register. It won't reduce your chances of winning a prize - anyone who finishes above Tikay in the table will be a winner.
It's a chance to earn bragging rights over your mates as well as Tikay.
The more people that register, the more chance of giving Tikay a "bloody nose".
Registered so far:
They have both already qualified for Santa's Sack so that means that when they beat Tikay tonight* there will be two extra places available for people who didn't even beat Tikay.
* Ts&Cs apply - it is possible that Tikay might beat them (but on current form this is unlikely) :-)))
Goodness of their hearts? What hearts?
I have a bad feeling about this.
But, we need MORE ENTRIES.
You MUST register your name on this Thread to qualify, though.
You do NOT have to be in the early Tourneys, though, as long as you play ANY THREE it's fine.
I've Tweeted it & Facebook'd it, so hopefully we'll get a tidy field. Surely we can do better than Wednesday's 22 runners?
Where are all the £2.20 Deepie Gang? Get in!
Can't believe you called me down in that Omaha game with the bad House. You could have been CRUSHED.
There were 33 in the 2.20 @ 2.20 today.
I am in the....

There will be a special £2.20 (& £5.50, I can't remember) Deepie L-L on Monday, too. I'm not 100% sure to be available, but I very much hope to be.
Good luck tonight.
