Team Event - Points Allocations

Day One

2:30pm 3 x 8 handed, 4 x 7 handed NLHE STT   (1st=7pts, 2nd=6pts........7th=1pt, 8th=0pts)
5:30pm 3 x 8 handed, 4 x 7 handed PLO STT   (1st=7pts, 2nd=6pts........7th=1pt, 8th=0pts)
9:00pm 39 x HU Matches - 6 per team   (1st=4pts, 2nd=0pts)

Total points allocated for Day 1 = 548
Maximum Team points for Day 1 = 80

Day Two

2:30pm 3 x 8 handed, 4 x 7 handed NLHE STT   (1st=7pts, 2nd=6pts........7th=1pt, 8th=0pts)
6:00pm 52 Runner MTT    (1st=26pts, 2nd=25pts........25th=2pts, 26th=1pt)

Total points allocated for Day 2 = 547
Maximum Team points for Day 2 = 126


Notes

Due to the 13 teams, we will be running a number of 7 handed STT"s.  Points for those tables will be exactly the same as the 8 handed ones, without an 8th place getting 0pts.

The MTT will only alllocate points to the top 26 finishers (50% of the field).  We will run hand for hand at 27 (3 tables of 9 players)

Just for consideration - would it not be fairer if both days were a bit more even in terms of the points a team can maximally score rather than total points? Awarding points to only top 18 in the MTT would mean max for a team on day 2 is 94. The current structure is set up towards making sure a lot of teams are in the running before the MTT kicks off, in fact probably all of them, which adds excitement i agree but also probably eliminates a lot of the "good work on day one" factor.
This is not criticism in any way - just hoping to open up a discussion.

And and also please, whats the call on the HU matches - how many players from each country MUST play a HU match? Will every player have to play one or will it be possible to choose the same player over and over in case of HU games that dont collide?
Thanks
Michael

Cant wait for the event guys, great work organising and reorganising!!!!!!

Chipaccrual:
There will be no restrictions on who plays the heads up games.

They will be completed back to back with as many dealers as DTD can provide.

The only condition will be that a team cannot hold up a heads up match from starting, so they will have to select a player from one of there available players.

The Lake Garda strategic retreat has gone very well.  8) 8)

I have to say that the points structure still places a bit too much significance on the MTT. However, it should make for a great finish with all teams just about in contention going into that final leg.

I agree that this should not be a ranking event (even though I"m top - brag) but surely there should be POS points for the top 5 or 6 point scorers

RILHO:
