    i dont think they should give 10 places to the league, personally i think there should be 40 places available for buy-in satellites etc, 5 for the league places, 4 for the thursday tournaments, and the winner of the actual tournament gets free entry into the next one to defend their crown.

    what happens if someone finishing in the top 10 of the league are already registered for the mtt itself?

    Mr Snoddy!

    I don't expect you have been Registered by the Suits yet - it's a Bank Holiday, & most of them wiill be off all weekend. Keep an eye on the Lobby next week, & if your name does not appear, Post on this Thread, & I'll remind them. I hope this serves as a reply to the PM you have just sent me, too.

    The Show will be repeated - frequently I expect - but I'm afraid I don't know when. Just keep an eye on 865 in the next few days, including today, & you'll likely see it. You featured in a lot of hands, throughout the Show. If you are unsure what Show to look out for, I believe we had a "LEAGUE" backdrop during the Show, & the Presenter was Mr Hartigan.

    Noted. The problem is, if they asked 100 people how to divvy up the Seats, they'd get 100 different answers. And every one believe their suggestion was "ideal". It's not realy possible to please everyone, & that especially applies in poker.

    I don't see them changing the 10 seats thing in the League Playoff, though.

    What happens if someone double qualifies? I've no idea. They won't get double starting chips though...... They will deal with it, if & when it happens, I'm quite sure, it's not exactly a difficult problem to resolve, or worry about, imo. Why not qualify twice, then you will find out? ;)

    Ahhhh so that's why the show was called "The League" in the Sky EPG - I thought they'd put the wrong title on, haha (somehow missed this thread 'til now).

    The site was operating normally last night, & the 8pm Main Event got a whopping 686 runners, attracting a Prize Pool of £13,720.

Anyway, great show Sir, loved it, great banter to watch on a Thursday night and also the League is a great concept imo, wd everyone involved!!

    Thanks Hursty.

    I'd be prepared to bet a very substantial sum that the 50 player Cap (which includes the free seats) will be reached a LONG before the 22nd April, & that players will be complaining that they cannot get a Seat, as all seats are gone.

    It has 12 already, add another 13 giveaways, & with 3 weeks to go, only 25 seats are left!
