FTP deserves a thumbs up for this HU tournament..
I already loved almost everything in this site, by far the best in the field. I'm playing 40FTPs Satellites for this but i won't be there :p, it's too hard and i guess luck is a huge factor in order to win so many consecutive HU..
Did someone managed to do that?... nevertheless all these HU tourneys are great! Keep it going! |

Are you sure about that? I thought unregistering was strictly not allowed for this tournament. |

Ok, seriously, what's the best way to run a pool for this? Everyone throws in five or ten bucks and can pick our own team of five, or ten? How to judge it? Total prize money?
Just throwing random thoughts out there. You have any ideas, Rick? This is going to be great to watch... I'd prefer to have a rooting interest! |

Not sure if there will be too many players for a full bracket pick.
if it is a bracket pick, I'd like it to be 1 pt. for 1st round, 2 for 2nd, 3 for 3rd, etc.
just another random thought...... picking a team like the fantasy league.
A.=3x$
B.=2x$
C.=1x$ |

If the bracket is released a fair amount of time in advance, that would be pretty sweet to do; however, your suggestion for option two is a nice fallback plan imo.
I likey. |

Boy I sure hope that anyone who registered thinking this was going to be 64 players were allowed to unregister when the field was DOUBLED!
And with John Juanda unregistering I sure hope that wasnt just a perk for the pros, and everyone was given the option. |

Best Idea Yet. Everybody pick 2 players for A, B & C and winnings are based on $won, not any kind of TLB system. Call it $5 entry, who wants to hold? |

It's only one more game to play.
Several other non-red pros have unregistered.
There are less than 200 spots left in the 5K pts. satellite. |

| You can unregister if you buy in direct.... So John probably bought in direct then decided that he didn't want to play. |
