National League - Season 5 Week 7 - Again
dwh103:
Ah well. Missed that one.
Down to whoever then. I"d only worry about it if there was an obvious benefit (such as last season when we needed to win and West Mids to come 4th or worse).

Are you sure John, I got it as 40 pts each for Solent and WMids with the latter having 4 scoring players (vs 3) and the win?
Although its late and maths brain cells maybe asleep already

This is correct, points are updated on the thread. West Midlands gets 3 points by virtue of 4 points scorers.

Yeah, I thought it went on the highest finisher when teams finish level but, reading the rules, I see that this is not the case, which seems a bit less than fair, but there you go. Well done W Mid.
WP again Richard on the win. Should have had it a few hands earlier if he hadn"t hit the river, but got there in the end.

Actually, it did make a difference as we finished level with W Mids on points last night but they got the win because they had 4 points-scorers, whereas we only had 3. Having said that, the scenario only arises due to Richard having won the tournament.
I would prefer if Solent players didn"t knock each other out. A clash also occurred between Andy Hall and Rich, when they got all-in against each other pre-flop, despite lying 2nd & 3rd at the time, when there were 10 left in. This clash ultimately destroyed our chances, as we were left with one very-highly chipped up player instead of two well-chipped players.
I understand that there is money at stake for individual players, but not for the team until the end of the season, so it is difficult to say not to give it your best shot. Perhaps this is something the league could look at - if we want people to play as a team, perhaps there could be a team element to the prizes on the night.

I"m not spending another Sunday evening wasting my time for that to happen again

Play Justin - we need players. And tell Helen to play - she is 2/2 for cashes, which is better than any of us.
