Shipppppppppppp IT!
Just took down the Walsall Regional tourney. 32 runners. £108 quid and a seat
Special mention to Mark Donnelly- horrible beat with KK *puke*

Congratulations on your win, but how come only £108?
There was £620 in the pot minus 3 seats=£225 therefore surplus of £395 to be paid out according to the memo from APAT to top three players,with a field of 31 runners. Seems a miscalculation as occured!!

They paid top 4- 4 seats and 4 prizes

In which case who made that decision, it has been well publicised that the top 10% get a seat. By my maths 31 players divided by 10% = 3.1 seats, thus taking away a seat for the clickfest on Tuesday evening.
Everybody hates being the " bubbleboy" but I dont agree to changing the goalposts after the competition has started, and as stated earlier, the official sheet that was faxed through to Walsall only allocated 3 seats for a 31 runner event.
So the same question is whpo made the decision?
Chipaccrual:
The allocation of seats should have been standard across all venues. 10% of runners got seats and this was rounded up. So 31 runners = 4 seats.
Hope this clears up the confusion.

Then why did the official sheet that was held by the cardroom manager show 3 seats for 31 runners?
confusion not clear!
texfitz:
Newcastle 23 players
We were told there were 2 seats available for the national event, i asked if it should be rounded up to 3 seats, but i was shown the schedule and it was to be rounded down. I asked the players if they would be happy to reduce the prize fund to add extra seats £460 minus £150 = £310 prize fund paid down to 3rd. No-one objected but staff said no, ok then
BTW some players didn"t even know what they were playing for
So we started playing, everyone aiming for 3rd spot coz the board was reading
1st £ ? ? ?
2nd £110
3rd £150
They didn"t know anything about any buffet
After a while the staff decided they will offer 3 seats
When we were down to 2 tables ( after 3 players went out) they did provide dealers. Was quite a good game, but i got the wrong bingo card at reception, so i get no seat, points or cash but i will make the effort to get to the next one.
Chipaccrual:
If that was the case, we"ll have to look into it to make sure all venues are consistent for future legs and sticking to the agreed payout structure.
