Actually super happy I didn't overtake demios, wouldn't seem right as they weren't able to play the last leg. 
Well done demios, superbly consistent once again  
Well played everyone

Thx Paul, Helen will confirm shortly. Had a few technical issues over Xmas but she's all over it like a hawk (in the best possible way)

Well played Rivrd! A super-competitive game tonight with everyone seemingly running deep into the levels and yet a host of quick-succession bust-outs sealed the points & payouts. 
Gutted to hear about the Swedish Home-Games withdrawal, missing you already in the league demios, we'll have to see if we can set something up to run alongside the current f ormat in order that you can still be involved.

Unfortunately staffy has had to drop out so we've recruited @runadrum back into the team. 
 

Might as well start with my first game of the year with a win  good fun as always. 

Can someone tag with me with who won and I'll update announcement.

Good game all. Don't forget we have a week off next week, final leg is on 2nd January. 
Wishing all members a very merry Christmas and looking forward to your company at the tables again in the new year. 
 

Congrats to gemic on winning the latest leg

Hey, I only provided the main idea, feel free to work with it, we have many tournament specialists in here, it could be a funny thing.

Well played Leo & everyone. 
Great banter as always and classy etiquette as we've always come to expect from PL members.
 
Gem raised a good idea during the game of having a little side event, namely all entering a regular tournament on a last longer basis and/or sharing out any combined winnings? Will let him post his thoughts, but just wanted to log it so it's not forgotten. 
Could maybe do something at the same time as the league? or use those occasional 5th week wednesdays? Thoughts welcomed and I'll have a chat with Father Christmas after the holiday season and see if he has any thoughts. 

I used to feel that they was a big difference but given I virtually only play on Stars the fields in No Limit tourneys are still bigger than most of the series on other sites. 
Maybe the fields are softer if the promotion manages to get a few more casuals to see them as more than just a regular tourney , but the more I play the less I've become worried about if it's part of a series or not
