Regional Prizes...
asarge:
...Just want a quick clafication on this:
Lets say 50 players turn up for example.
All paying £20 each = total prize pool £1,000
Top 10% win a £75 seat in national - so thats £375 gone from pool.
Is the balance of £625 then paid out in cash?
How many places would this pay out and roughly what would be the prize money for each position?!
Just wondering... ;D
HaworthBantam:
Top 10% qualify for the seat in the National.
The same 10% will also be paid out a share of the balance in the pot, after deduction of the £75 entry per qualifying player.
In Leg one, if 5 players were to qualify then the balance would have been paid out as follows:
First 31% of the pot
Second 25 % of the pot
Third 20% of the pot
Fourth 12% of the pot
Fifth 12% of the pot
Obviously the percentages change dependant on the number of qualifiers.
Hope this gives you some idea.....

Thanks for that - great help!
Is the cash paid out by the casino on the day?
Does the casino keep hold of the £75 for the national seat?
Also, if someone won that did not want the seat at the national, can they take the cash instead?

If you"re at a Grosvenor, then yes the £75 for the National seat will be retained by the casino. For Gala casinos I"m not sure, perhaps Des or somebody who"s played a Gala Regional can help out here....?

Yes, all you need do is mail Des and let him know that you will not be playing. The £75 will then be reimbursed to you, but probably not until after the National event has taken place.

I would like to see this information published in full. From what I could make out from the feedback on Leg 1 events, there were some differences from casino to casino.
