Title: APAT World Cup Sweepstake idea.
Post by: Matt D on May 13, 2014, 12:19:15 PM

Hi Sports Fans :)

Would anyone be interested in a special sweepstake for the World Cup? Let me know what you think, and if you"re interested in taking part.

I will set up a holding tank / buy-in via the APAT software for £10 + 1. (note: I think buying in via APAT software is convenient, though it does attract £1 juice. However, in recognition of that, I"ll add 50% of the juice back to the prizepool).

Total prizepool: £336 (£320 + £16)

Winner of World Cup = £101
Runner up = £45
3rd = £20
4th = £10

Wooden spoon = £10 Team with least points / worst goal difference between tied teams.

£150 prizepool MTT on Monday 14th July (day after the final). This will be open to all sweepstake entrants , so everyone has a chance of winning something, regardless of how rubbish their team is! :)

Cool. Will get the holding set up by the end of the week. It will auto close when 32 players have registered.

Registration will be open to APAT and LPPL members only for the first couple of weeks. I"ll then open it further afield if we fail to get a full 32.

Not yet. Didn"t seem to be much interest, but still intend on setting it up (maybe it"ll pick up once it"s live)... Will sort during the week.
