Topic: Bitcointalk SwC Championship Poker Series(50 mBtc added by SwC) - page 41. (Read 7054 times)

I mentioned this to efialtis and he liked the idea, so we got a poker series set up on SwC Poker for everyone. The games will be held every weekend at 1PM EST/5PM GMT. For anyone who is confused, that is also 5PM forum time.

We have been chatting trying to come up with the best way to run this. Buyin, start time, number of games per series, number of games per week, and how many to allow in the Champioship game. So we came up with the following.

There will be 8 games per series. 1 ran on Saturday, 1 ran on Sunday each week. The goal is to get as many points as possible to qualify for the championship game. The points structure is as follows:

Points Structure

10th = 1 point
9th = 2 points
8th = 3 points
7th = 4 points
6th = 5 points
5th = 6 points
4th = 7 points
3rd = 8 points
2nd = 9 point
1st = 10 points

The 9 players with the most points will be entered into the Championship game. I will post a spreadsheet in this thread so everyone can keep track of where they are in the points standings.

Championship Payouts

1st 50% of prize pool
2nd 30% of prize pool
3rd 20% of prize pool

The 8 games leading up to the Championship game will payout like normal. Dependant upon the number of entries. Users don't have to play every game to qualify for the Championship game either. You just need to be top 9 in points after 8 games.

Players will be required to send  200 chips per game to youcantwin on SwC for each game. That money will be added to the Championship games prize pool. SwC Poker has agreed to add .05btc to the Championship games prize pool. I will have efialtis (youcantwin) confirm everyone has sent the extra funds before the game starts. The extra funds is a requirement for all who want to play in this series. Whether you join at the beginning or at the end of late registration.

This tourney will be Password- protected, you will be required to send the "extra" chips to youcantwin before you will be given the password.

Outsiders can join, but they will need to make a bitcointalk account and follow all the rules posted. Would like to see users who make accounts stay active on the forum.
