> live final payout structure suggestions

hey james

wahoo great news about the live final coming up.
You asked for suggestions on the payout structure. Can you give us an idea of the expected runners and prize pool? some players might prefer a lot of places paid and some might prefer more cash. maybe do another poll with a few options.

Thanks

Rip

Hi Rip

There is going to be around 25 runners, and the prizepool is $5,000. It is in dollars as all prizes are paid direct into your bwin account.

We've had a few suggestions and ideas via email, but we've not decided yet so any other feedback is welcome!

James

With only 25 runners I suppose normal structure would be for only 3-5 to be paid, however I'd prefer to see at least the final table paid (10), even if places 6-10 were a level amount ($100 or so).

As most of us don't know each other in person, any chance of having some name badges with our bwin names/real names on. If budget doesn't stretch to that, a sticky label each will do!

I agree with Avon, Top 10 or FT paid would be a good idea. If only 3 or 5 get paid it will become pretty much a push-fest at some stage. Paying 9-10 places would see a more balanced game with much more play in my opinion.

yeah, I'd like to see more people paid out, even if say places 6-10 is a relatively low amount like $50 or $100 leaving the majority of the pot for the top 5.....

Just my two penneth.

Cheers

We will definitely pay out the whole final table.

Blind structure will be similar to previous final - 10,000 starting, 30 minute blinds.

Good luck all at the final.

James

hurrah - settle in for the long haul then

Good news, see you all there

Any idea when money will be transferred to accounts ?

Natsam - we will send the list of winners to bwin tomorrow morning, and ask that payment is actioned ASAP.

I think he should pay me for the privilege :-]......... 50/50 ...... as he is senile can get away with a couple of beers when we have our forum meet at starcity at the end of the month lol

Hehe, far from senile methinks, machete/roy will drink you under the table i reckon lol....

Well done all who made the cash !!
