Any chance of a little compo, like picking the finalists, or which lady will last longest (excuse me). There must be a compo in here somewhere. Posted by chilling
Is it correct that there are 961 permutations for the final two? Posted by chilling
Almost, I make it 32*31 = 992 - 32 = 960
The 32 is taken off because those drawn against each other in the first round can't both make the final
So there are 480 possible finalists, but if you want them in the right order then 960 is the number I believe.
Before the draw was made there were 496 possible finalists making 992 permutations if needing them to be in the right order too.
If all the rounds were pre-determined the number would be much less, but as all names that get through go into the hat again, I believe the above to be correct, as you could pick two players that meet each other before the final.

Great stuff, looks like our first match will be tonight. Will try and find you and rail. GL both!
Monkey out sat sun night, will check daily to see when ur about, not done this before so not sure how we short out playing I'm sure we can work this out Ned gl Posted by ned17
Hi Ned.
When you agree a date/time with Monkey, you'll just need to synch up on here just before you are due to play. One of you should then join a £1.05 Heads Up Speed SNG and the other one will need to join the table quickly (before anyone else does). You can then use the "rematch" feature for successive games. GL both!
The money that has been pledged from Sponsors, unless stated otherwise (ie for a specific charity), goes into the prize pool for the main TLB charity competition.
However it was suggested to me that perhaps the 1st and 2nd place finishers in the Heads Up competition, should win something for their own chosen charity.
This seems reasonable to me, and as such, if there is no objection, I would like to use £320 from the "Tournament Wins" prize pool to go to the chosen charities of the winner and 2nd in the heads up comp.
Namely: £200 to the winners chosen charity and £120 to the runner up's chosen charity.
The reason I have chosen to take it from the "Tournament Wins" pool is that this is most likely to be the largest "pot" of money at the end of 2016. So it should "balance out" the charity prize pools for the TLB winner and the "Tournament Wins" winner. Hope this makes sense.
If anyone has any objections to this, please let me know.

Either winner or loser can post the result on the thread, however it is the winner's responsibility to make sure the result is posted as timely as possible.

Hi. Just a quick note on the pledges. The money that has been pledged from Sponsors, unless stated otherwise (ie for a specific charity), goes into the prize pool for the main TLB charity competition. However it was suggested to me that perhaps the 1st and 2nd place finishers in the Heads Up competition, should win something for their own chosen charity.

So it should "balance out" the charity prize pools for the TLB winner and the "Tournament Wins" winner. Hope this makes sense. If anyone has any objections to this, please let me know. Many thanks and GL. Cheers, Graham. P.S. I will put this on both posts. Posted by StayOrGo
