Well done Leo, back to winning ways and now up at the top of the league after the week before's top 2 fell away early.
Could be all change again after tonight's PLO leg, usual start time 8.10pm with 20 minutes late reg. I'll have to miss this one so play nicely

February champion rosco picked up where he left off and started the new month with another win. Can anyone stop the demon of the dales this month! Leg 2 is tonight with another round of NLHE. Start 8.10pm as usual with 20mins added registration for busy people/latecomers/anyone stuck in snow.

McG reacted to avongirl in Punters Lounge Exclusive £150 added Poker League - February Champion - ROSCO
The predicted open race for the cash materialised last week with Danshot taking the win and jumping up into 2nd overall from 5th place, with a 1st and 2nd place finish over the month. Even more remarkably, I managed to finish runner up for my second podium of the month and leapt from 7th into 3rd overall. Rosco maintained his clear lead and is the February champion with 2 wins and a 4th. No-one else managed 2 podiums this month.
Thanks all for joining in and making an enjoyable battle. March league starts tonight
February Winners
1st @rosco £75 + PL Mug and Pens
2nd @Danshot £45
3rd @avongirl £30

Another upside down week where those lower down the league did well, so Rosco still has a healthy lead despite missing the game. Well done to Rivrd who took the PLO win and jumps up to 3rd place, but we have a very tightly bunched chasing pack behind meaning just about anyone could get into the added value spots.
Final leg is tonight, usual 8.10pm with 20 mins added. It's NLHE with 5000 chips, extra points available with double the entrants in the formula.

2 wins in a row and a mostly topsy turvy turnaround from leg 1 for the rest of us leaves Rosco well in the lead at the top of the league after 2 legs this month.
Will tonight's PLO leg make a dent in that lead? Game on at 8.10pm.
I had an update and new T&Cs to agree to when I've opened PokerStars just now so allow a bit of time to get on, don't leave it til the end of the 20mins late reg

Hurray it's February, and here we are again with the Punters Lounge £150 added Poker League. We run for the next 4 weeks on Wednesday nights.
The £150 added by PL is shared between the top 3 in the league at the end of the month. 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.
The format is a NLHE 3000 chip tourney in Legs 1 & 2 and a 5000 chip NLHE for final leg. Leg 3 is our PLO Leg with 5000 chips.
> Leg 1 : Wednesday 1st February at 20.10 GMT in the PL Poker Club Home Game - NLHE 3000 chips
> Leg 2 : Wednesday 8th February - NLHE 3000 chips
> Leg 3 : Wednesday 15th February - PLO 5000 chips
> Leg 4 : Wednesday 22nd February - NLHE 5000 chips - (double entrants in points 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.

McG reacted to avongirl in Punters Lounge Exclusive £150 added Poker League - January Champion - McG
HMRC kept happy for another year and tax form done so it's back to poker for me
McG made it 2 on the trot with the win last week and leapfrogs the podium straight back onto the champs throne for another month. Ian and muttley slip down a spot and Rivrd is, erm, well... rivered out of the added cash by one point. It does prove though that you don't need to win a week to get into the added money with muttley (and Rivrd) having consistent podium finishes over the month.
Big thank you to everyone for playing this month, we're back tonight with Feb league, the games are set up and I'm just getting the thread up
January Winners
1st @McG £75 + PL Mug and Pens
2nd @ian309 £45
3rd @muttley £30
I'll arrange the payments
The Announcement didn't take much editing from last month, well done on back to back top spots for @McG and @ian309!

Not just top 3, by my calculations you've smashed it (again), with back-to-back league titles

On oxygen at the first break, on about 2,000 chips, 9th of 9, then was lucky to double up v Nessy when my AQo (AIPF) hit a Queen and his AsKs didn’t improve. That was the start of a belting streak as I did my best impression of one of Muttley’s pigeons with a cloak of invincibility.
Goes to show that you can miss the first week and still finish in the top 3.
