    No point in just doing it properly for the later rounds, should be for the whole way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,404 ✭✭✭Goodluck2me


    Gary, stop spamming facebook with this!

    Also 3 rounds should def be in place for first rounds, and best of 5 for later rounds, sure they might only last one hand, hardly be arsed going all the way into town for that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 122 ✭✭jackdaniels55


    Right guys n girls just to let you know due to all the requests we have recieved the first 4 rounds will be best of 3 heads up games and the semi and the final will be best of 5. Hope that will keep you all happy:D Remember you have to be reg'd by the 12th February and its the first 64 who have paid up who will be in the tournament.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,187 ✭✭✭Flushdraw


    Whats the exact rules of this relating to organising a match? Say i get drawn against "Tom" in the first round.The timeframe to play this is...

    Round 1 to be played between Feb 14th – Feb 27th

    Do we have to decide between ourselves when to play? Sort out what dates we cant make it and pick a happy medium? What if we cant agree on a date?

    Do we both have to get in touch with the jackpot to arrange a match etc?

    Just a few questions i'm unsure of.

    Cheers

    Tony
