Betfair Challenge - Team Kent

[GaF]

Ok - everyone else has a thread, so we should follow suit. (If you prefer to discuss anything by PM - then feel free to do so :ok) With Washy, Uber and Heniek aboard, I definitely make us the ante-post favourites :) So lets see, what needs to be decided? How do we split the games? I'd propose no schedule as such - if we all intend to play a third of the games or so - then it should work pretty well by itself. I'll probably just play a lot of the games anyway - so hopefully there will be at least 2 of us in most games (and then it's automatic which of us is picked for the team representative). Only exception may be Washy - as he's away for a short part of it, we may want to make him the sole entrant a couple of evenings before he goes away to build his games up. It doesn't matter (IMO) if we dont all play exactly equal number of games, however it's good if it works out roughly equal. "Chasing Boost"? I'm pretty keen to max out the boost - I think with the group of players we have it should be pretty easy if we play a certain proportion of our regular games on Betfair. So if we all aim for 750 points each in the first week - if any of us are dropping behind, we can let the others know (as early as possible) so that we can pick up the pace if necessary. (I think it's fairly easy to track Betfair Points through the Betfair website). Even if we are short in the first week, so long as we're not more than 1000 points short, we can still max out (good to keep that buffer in reserve if we can) September Prize Money We have two options that I can see here: 1) We can have a team wallet and all buy in from the team wallet, and share prizes into the team wallet - sharing equity equally. This could either be just for the team representative, or anyone entering the scheduled event. I dont mind tracking it. Would mean transfers needed at the end of the month (probably through Pokerstars with no transfers on Betfair) 2) We can finance games ourselves, keeping prize winnings and losses individual. This removes the need for transfers at the end of the month. I have no strong preferences between either option - so give me feedback on what you prefer guys Sharing Potential October Prizes Again a number of options I can think of: 1) Share the prizes equally - play an equal(ish) number of $109 games each - either share all prize money retained equally or keep individual retained winnings. 2) Split playing the $109 games by proportion of gross winnings each team member achieved and either use the same split for retained winnings or split retained winnings equally I actually quite like option 2 - splitting the retained winnings by the proportion of Gross winnings earned in September (and playing approximately the same proportion of games) - to add a small competitive edge amongst the team (and I am clear in my mind that I am the weakest member of the team - so not saying this for any personal gain). Maybe guarantee all players a minimum of 2 games each, to make sure everyone gets their shot at the game. Team Captain I'm happy to put myself forward to be captain. I'm equally happy for someone else to take on the role :ok Anything I've missed? :unsure Let me know your views guys :ok

Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Kent i'm happy with proportional buy ins and also happy to finance individually as well,seems like the simplest way to do it:ok i'm sure it'll work out pretty easy to split the 18k buy ins fairly as we are all pretty easy going i'm also happy with you being captain as well trev,a sane voice among the pissheads:lol
