Sky County Cup

EDKENT123

How about a regional tournament, counties or just n.e.s.w maybe.........

i'm sure a few other sites run something similar every now and then could be good fun, a straight buy in or maybe a few sat's

could make a nice cash prize for the winner

what u reckon ???????????????

i actually suggested this in the sky poker community suggestions thread, i will go find it and see what you think of the idea?

ok i have been thinking about this and it sounds ok to me but we will after see what the bosses think, anyway this is my idea.


tournament name: champions league of poker.


first of all you will need 8 teams with 4 players (1 reserve could be a possibility)

but the players in each team must come from roughly the same area for example the 8 teams could be something like this:

1, londoners
2, scousers
3, midlands
4, yorkshire
5, wales
6, scotland
7, sky mods
8, ireland

this is just an example and obviously the teams will be decided by sky poker.

the entry fee would be in the region of £100 per team which is £20 each if you go with a reserve just incase one player cant play on their supposed night.

the tournament will start on a monday night and something along the lines of 12 minute blinds maybe, player 1 from each team will compete on monday and player 2 on tuesday, player 3 on wednesday and player 4 on thursday.

for each game the points will be,

1st 10 pts
2nd 6 pts
3rd 5 pts
4th 4 pts
5th 3pts
6th 2 pts
7th 1pt
8th 0 pts

after the 4 nights of poker have been completed the top 4 that have accumulated the most points will then be put through to the semi finals, with no.1 playing no.4 and no.2 playing no.3 in the order they qualified. the semi finals will be played on the friday night with all 5 players taking part, it will be 5 games of heads up poker player 1 v player 1...player2 v player2 and so on, clearly it is not possible to draw this way, so the 2 winning teams that go through will play in the final with 5 games of heads up poker once again to decide who are the champions on sky poker, i also think it would be a good idea to mix up the poker on the 1st 4 nights, monday could be 12 minute blinds and tuesday could be 3 minute blinds, wednesday could be pot limit and thursday so on, clearly this will need some fine tuning as its all a bit mumble jumble at the moment, but its just an idea i thought i would out there.

thanks for reading all this
