S4 Online National League - Discussion

[kaysing]

I notice they have already put details of the online league on the site.  However, no mention of how often the blinds increase (unless I am missing the obvious somewhere).  Filtering indicates they are considered to be "rapid" tournaments.  Lets hope its not less than 10 mins (preferably 12) as with 2500 starting chips it becomes a shove fest pretty quick.

Would one of the management confirm how often the blinds will increase for the online league.

Hi Dave,

It will be the same as last year for the National league - 2,500 chips on 10 minute blinds.  The National Championship events will offer 10,000 chips and 12 minute blinds.  As always, we'll review the amount of play you get after the first event and increase / decrease as per general consensus.

Regards,

Des.

think the league games last year were 2500 chips and 13 minute blinds..... not 10 minute.

I thought after some chopping and changing 12 was settled on!

[Chipaccrual]

We'll settle on it long before we get started guys, don't worry about that.

 

[kaysing]

Poss started at 10 but considered it became a shove fest to soon.
12 (or 13) was settled on as a compromise to those who wanted 15.

15 was rejected because of the predicted late finish time.

As Leigh said, we'll sort!

Last seasons structure changed after about 2 or 3 weeks, and from then on was excellent, no need to change owt!

Is there any news on the league prizes yet ?

Tried selling it yesterday to some locals and it is hard when you can't say what is up for grabs.

Please excuse me if this has already been mentioned, I couldn't see it anywhere

No kickback this year in terms of a percentage of future winnings from the prizes gained by the lucky 4 in each division?

We have no plans to enforce anything, mainly due to the fact that over the course of the season we are giving away 24, yes you read that right  , added value live seats.

Trying to keep a track of who would owe what to who is just an impossible task.

If captains and playing wish to make an agreement within their own clubs, then that is fine, although it would need a total agreement from the players, and that is not always an easy thing to do.

Just another Question,

I am guessing there will be some relegation/promotion between divisions after the first 10 game league has finished and the divisions will be altered ready for the second  10 game league.

Is this right? How many teams up 'n' down ?
