Well done to Barry on the final leg win.   It lifts him up to 2nd overall above Andy who keeps enough of a margin over the chasing pack to keep in the prize money with 3rd spot overall.   Paul is this month's well deserved champion with a win and two 2nds and probably also takes the champion of 2023 crown (which doesn't actually exist ) with his 3rd win of the year.

Thank you to everyone who has played over 2023 and congratulations to everyone who has won some of the added prize money over the course of the year.   I'm off to ask the boss whether we can run for another year so we'll take this week as a New Year break and hopefully be back for the 4 Wednesdays from the 10th.
Meanwhile, HAPPY NEW YEAR, hope the poker gods are kind to you all in 2024.

Sounds like the final leg was an epic battle, so well done to Barry on the win with Manc and Elliott on the podium.
The winner's points are enough to lift Barry up to the top of the table and take the league crown   with Pablo just pipping McG in the 2nd and 3rd added value spots   A welcome comeback this month to Bart who just misses out in 4th spot
Fabulous to keep the numbers up throughout the month, hope everyone is enjoying the weekly format we're running at the moment.  More of the same starts next week for February.

Well it looks like we are set for more of the same fun lockdown times in 2021 that we enjoyed with 2020.  So stay at home with us and we here at Punters Lounge will keep you entertained again and continue to bring you added value with our £150 added Poker League.
Our January League starts this week and will run on Wednesday nights.  Games start at 8.10pm, with a 20min late registration period on top of this.  All games are played in the PokerStars Home Games PL Poker Club. 
Our Bounty leg seems to be popular so we will continue to hold this in Leg 2.  This month will be a standard Bounty format (50% of your buy in becomes your bounty).  League points will be calculated only on finishing position, and bounty payouts will be made according to PokerStars normal rules.   Leg 1 and 4 are standard NLHE, and Leg 3 is our PLO Leg.
 > Leg 1 : Wednesday 6th January at 20.10 GMT in the PL Poker Club Home Game - NLHE 3000 chips
 > Leg 2 : 13th January - NLHE 3000 Chips Bounty
 > Leg 3 : 20th January - PLO 5000 chips
 > Leg 4 : 27th January - NLHE 5000 chips - double entrants in formula **
Buy in is $5.50 per leg.
Your top 3 scores of the 4 legs will count towards your league total. We will be using the usual PL poker league format, which will be updated in this thread. (The PokerStars own league scores will not be used.) Formula is -Log(position/Entrants)x100
To help boost numbers overall and in particular in the final leg we are continuing the system of doubling the number of entries used in the calculation in leg 4 (**so if 10 entries the formula will use 20 entrants). This will increase the number of points available in the final leg to make it more competitive.
All members are welcome, however you must post in this thread if asked to let us know your forum username, otherwise your placings and scores cannot be included in the league.  New players are always welcome to join in, so please spread the word and invite your friends to the forum so we can keep the weekly numbers up.

£150 Added Value

The £150 added will be split between the top 3 players of the league end, with £75 to the league champion, £45 to 2nd and £30 to 3rd.  This will be payable via PayPal at the end of the league.  Big thank you to Punters Lounge for the added funds.  The league winner will also get Punters Lounge merchandise.

Punters Lounge Merchandise

You can now win unlimited Punters Lounge merchandise, even if you have won them before. It consists of our mug with a wraparound 3D logo and also a pack of 10 pens. Unfortunately due to supplier shipping restrictions we may be unable to provide these to members who live outside of the UK.
