    Have a league then - could someone set up 5/10 or a random number x £0.50 tournaments or something like that and have a league where scores are 12-10-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 for top 10. Obv cos of the way the target tournament is then it'd have to be 10 handed tables...and password protect it with people having to register their interest on the forum to get the password.

    Wouldn't make the buy-ins for league any more than £1 - dont wanna put people off qualifying because they cant afford to play all 5.

    Hi,

    I suggest you set an end date for interest to play and after that if you supply me with a list of names I will set up 5 private qualifying tournaments over 5 nights if the numbers interested exceed the team requirement's. You will then need to submit your team and keep your fingers x'ed. Along with Sky_Dave if you are short I'll be glad to join in - I live in Manchester, so it's close to home...

    Regards,

    Bernie

     Well i believ elast year it was simply an MTT all vs all, but scored points on where you finished, then you need to put team points together...

     £50 buyin, 16 teams of 10 so 160 runners (will deffo fill up) @ the G Casino Manchester

    OK..


     Here is the List I have so far... we need to run a few games, and have a league point system I'm thinking 1 point for registering.. then top ten get 2 - 11 points.

     Let me know if you want adding, lets close this pretty quick or we will get too many people interested. and only 10 seats available.

    APAT Team Sky

     1. FlashFlush
     2. Jimbo31
     3. Greg
     4. Razorkev
     5. Karlluke
     6. BigBluster
     7. PianoPlaya
     8. DTWBandit
     9. mr_mbro
     10. Cormach
     11. FlutNush
     12. Margatemaf
     13. byrdy89
     14. Sky_Dave
     15. Sky_Bernie
     16. darich
     17. Uzi_Lover
     18. Kaidus
     19. Joobie538
     20. Tallboy


     P.S Sky_Dave and Sky_Bernie. If you are allowed to play in these games then feel free to play. We will easily have enough players, so if you do want to play get yourself in the trnys and finish top 10, we all love playing the staff at sky

    Just the competition just to get a place in the team will be worth watching.

    Whoever the 10 players will be to go to the  APAT it will be packed with quality players.

    With 160 runners, the prizepool will be £8,000.  This will then be split 50/50 between individual and team results.

    APAT normally pays out top 20% for individuals (Top 16 players, 1st place should be approx £1,000) and will pay out Top 3 for team results (1st - £2000, 2nd - £1250, 3rd - £750), and obviously the all important trophy for the overall team winners.

    The overall individual winner will also receive an APAT Gold Medal and the added value of a GUKPT seat. (Worth approx $3,000)

    Last season, team points were scored for the top 50 players (50th - 1pt, 1st 50pts).

    And as with all APAT live events, there is no registration fee and a buffet will be provided for all players on day one.


    Payout structure is yet to be officially announced, but I hope this will give you a good idea.

    personally speaking the prize money is a bonus, playing live for me against quality opponents is the real prize!!! :)

    I assume that from the posts above, when we find out if Sky will have a team then there will be qualifying private freerolls limited to those who have signed up in this thread. From those, FlashFlush is organising a league structure where the top 10 people qualify for the team.

    Sky Bernie said he would organise this. Don't think it will be a freeroll though.

    Seeing as though we will be representing Sky Poker, then why not. We are trying to find a team here not get any monetary gain out of it.
    Whether they want make it points to play or to make a nominal fee(to cover any costs) is allright by me, but i am talking about no more than 20p= £1 for the complete schedule. thereby allowing ALL bankroll levels to take part.

    I agree Colin. 

    Take the finalised list of interested parties then drop them all into a private freeroll. Top 10 go. Seems simple to me!

    Hi Dave,
    IMO just having one game to finalise the team is not the way to go.I like the idea of the 5 events with points for finishing positions.
    1 point for first out up to to number of entrants for the winner.

    To even out variance... Agreed. Good thinking.

    who is in charge of sorting this out? seems to be dragging on a bit now. Is there someone here who has the final say or is it a group thing where we all make a democratic decision?
