fenner Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 I have added a new column to the table - an estimate of the average number of points each player needs to score in order to achieve 10th place. Score less and you're behind the pace ...... score more and you're looking good :ok So with 240 odd entrants, top 100 in every game should be enough :ok youve got too much time on your hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 youve got too much time on your hands lol - hope you don't think I typed it all in manually :loon It didn't take too long - about 10 mins......

brael Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 How many qualify from the leaderboard? Is it just 1st place or is it the top 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laidbackbloke Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 Ok - what do we really need to qualify? Assumming 196 qualifiers to go (a bit of a guess - don't know the exact number!!!) then about 29,000 should do it!!! How have I worked that out? Well - asssuming everyone plays in all remaining games, and assuming everyone scores at the same rate they have so far, then the table below shows how it will finish ...... Interestingly - none of the current top 10 are forecast to stay there!!!! Chess and Runadrum are forecast to make it!! Surprisingly - so is laidback (if he can carry on averaging 144 points a game!!!) - I suspect he is there because he has done well in the relatively few games he has made - but to do that day in day out is a big ask!! I'm in the leader board:eek :eek :eek I've only played in about 4 of them :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol ( playing to qualify for the monday final) .............maybe i should have given it more of a go :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brael Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 AAAGGGGHHH! I would have been better staying away from tonights qualifier!!! :wall I was dealt AA twice in succession... got something from the first hand but my opponent to my right went all-in with KK on the second and hit a K on the turn!!! That cost me more than half my stack and I never looked back!!! Better to play this as a sit-out! :wall :wall :wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laidbackbloke Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 I had a go again tonight, but i went out in the late 60's or so :sad Runadrum was at my table and is going well though :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still going - on over 200 points now - same as at lunchtime - I'm going well at the moment and oozing confidence that I can make the top 10 if I persevere!!!

runadrum Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 Cheers mate. I bought a Maxim magazine this week thinking it might give me a 'read' on the competition at the tables. All in the interest of science and improving my play of course, but it wasn't unpleasant and the DVD on the front cover isn't bad ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runadrum Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 Worst performance yet in a weekly final - just never got going. Couldn't even outlast the sitouts ! My points scoring in the qualifiers has slowed down as well so losing more than a bit of confidence. Wondering about the wisdom of putting all my efforts into tournaments not paying any cash unless I make the live final. :sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runadrum Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Re: VC/Maxim King of Poker 2006 Chin up son it will come good :ok cheers mate :ok I know, like falling off a bike, I have to get straight back on but it is the thought of having to get back on, twice a day for the next twelve weeks ! :eek Well played tonight Mr V :clap. If you weren't to win I'm glad Ubermonkey did as even before GaF's table highlighted him as a danger I'd noticed him as one player picking up points quickly on the leaderboard. Hopefully that means a place for someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
