Well done Barry, and the win takes you to the top of the league
Next week we have our PLO leg. It's the normal structure, but with a 3000 starting stack so should allow for plenty of play.
If we could just get all 12 of you from legs 1 and 2 playing together in the same leg it would be great!  I'm already registered
 

It would appear that I am back ! Just logged into Stars on the off chance... and it lets me play. There has been no email from Stars, no notification, no explanation, no apology, not a sausage. Their customer service really does redefine incompetence. 
See you back on the felt tomorrow 

That is a good enough reason for me to join in the fun tonight :-)

Well done Andy and outstanding bouncebackability from muttley
 

Must get back to playing this regularly.

In respect of my situation there has been no change. Pokerstars have managed to turn the phrase 'Customer Service' into something of an oxymoron and I don't see that changing any time soon.
It was fun while it lasted.... best of luck folks !  
 
 

Can only have 1 bet per week, top one taken.

@Sir Puntalot

PLLofthouse makes it 3 out of 3 to win tonight's game and take the league crown. Very well done Craig.   
I managed to hang on to 2nd spot overall despite a great effort from Andy tonight who climbs back up to take the 3rd podium spot.
The double points factor seems to have worked to keep at least the same turnout as previous legs. On this occasion it hasn't actually affected the result, although it did at least give others a chance of getting in mix at the top had the result gone a different way. We'll run the same next month in conjunction with our leg 3 PLO game month and make a decision after that . Thank you to everyone who turned out and played this month, hope to see you all again in May and don't forget to bring along a mate too!

Well done Craig, two on the trot to take the lead in the overall table Awesome start.
This month we're trying out a double points boost in the final leg to try and counter the drop in numbers we tend to see playing leg 4 as people believe they are out of the running for the added value podium. So this means anyone could still be in with a chance of getting in the league money. The game is set up, hope everyone will give it a good turnout.
 

Good game all, sorry missed most busts out and some chat as wife on hyper talking mode tonight :))

Yes, I can log into PS, I can still navigate all the tabs, I can select a cash game and choose how much to buy in for but as soon as I try to play I get the pop up as shown in the screen shot. I can still watch you play the PL League games but as soon as I try to register for the PL game itself, I get the pop up again. The only thing they have stopped me doing is actually playing. I have successfully withdrawn most of my roll for the time being in case they decide to freeze that too in a further act of malice.

Not sure if you got in or not, but @avongirl is the right person to answer, I merely sweep the floors and make them look shiny.
