_______________________________________________ KO Cup Rules Each month anyone who finishes in profit from a minimum of 10 selections plus the top 16 finishers in the Naps table will qualify for the following months KO Cup competition which will take place over 4 Saturdays. Rules as follows:

• Top 16 finishers plus anyone in profit from the NAPS Final table will qualify, minimum required bets will be needed which is 10
• All players will play in Qualifying Round and top 8 scorers go forward to next round.
• Pairings seeded from finishing position after qualifying, 1v8, 2v7 and so on.
• Matches will be played on each of the Saturdays of that month.
• 3 Selections required each round, plus reserves if you desire.
• 1pt Win or 0.50pt EW can be selected, if no stake included a win bet will be awarded.
• Player with most profit will go forward to the next round, if a tie, a playoff will be played on the following day.
• From the 2nd Round onwards we operate a First come first served basis, player can not have the same selection as his opponent in his 3 main picks, if this happens it will be regarded as a loser, reserves will not be used in this case.
• The deadline for bets to be posted is 2pm
• All 3 selections must be posted at the same time in one post, no 10 minute ruling but before the 2pm deadline.
• Once in the head to head stages Selections can not be changed once your opponent has posted.
• Multiple horses frome the same race is allowed.
• Reserves can be added in case of NR's but not if you or your opponents bet has started, so it makes sense to post the reserves in the original post.
• Horses can be posted after the deadline if a meeting is abandoned for any reason which includes selections.
• Prices can be taken as per the NAPS Table rules.

If a player doesnt show up the opponent will go through regardless of his results. If both dont show up another chance will be given on the next day. If they still dont show the highest loser from that round will progress. :ok
