avongirl Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Roses 1. I'd feel more comfortable with say 6 in the team. Gives us a better chance at making the points and provides more cover for playing the tournaments if there's any availability issues. 2. I think we each do what we can. I was planning to play STTs but I don't think I'll manage the sort of numbers suggested by GaF (not sure which thread it was in). If we don't max out, I don't think it's the end of the world. The multiplier applies to the tourney winnings, so it's far more important to get money there (max boost % x $0 is still $0 :lol) 3. Because of transfer issues, I'd be in favour of everyone retaining their own winnings for both boost earning and challenge tournament playing periods. However, I think I'd like to see some sort of team share if we make it to the $109 tourneys. Maybe 50/50 or even 75/25 individual/team. We would also need to decide if we took equal goes at playing those games. 4. Will have to check my diary, but early start times never good for me, I'm not great at 6-max, and forget PLO. Not sure what that leaves. :lol Beyond that, I'm doubtful availability most of week 2 due to St Leger meeting at Doncaster combined with Avon order week, then it's PLWSOP that weekend. As I say, 6 in a team would be good. :loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ooblio Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Roses The idea of keeping winnings, is probably the only way, as we are gambling our own money. As for the 18k (if we are one of the 2 winning teams?). I personally think, that it should be split amongst all the team equally ( as long as everyone has made some kind of effort). I am available to play any of the mtt's, apart from 4th/5th September. How do we know about bonus points? Does JT divulge this? More to come, as, and when :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives us a better chance at making the points and provides more cover for playing the tournaments if there's any availability issues. Just an idea you might want to consider - if you had a player who wanted a team of 6, and another player who preferred a team of 3, you could actually accomodate both of you by giving the player wanting to be in a team of 3 a "double" position in the team - they can have double the responsability - so expected to earn double the boost of other players, play double the MTT games of the other players and receive double the proportion of the prize money of the other players. The player with the double stake is in a team as if there are 3 players in total. The player with the single stake, is in a team as if there are 6 players. In reality there are 5 players in the team. Not sure I can see any down side to this :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ooblio Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Roses Ok people, any preference on nights, game? Are you planning on just playing DON's for points, or playing MTT's, or SNG's ? Donna likes any SNG's or DON's about $5 mark, and if needed(required) the cheaper MTT's. I will mainly play MTT's of any description (any night), and points boosting, probably DON's. Are we happy keeping our own winning's? .................... and when we are the winning 1st, or 2nd team. Happy to share the proceeds (after JT taken his share) of the 18k tourni's?

superfoo Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Roses hi guys will just post my thoughts on how we run this.... 1. i think all winnings from the games should be kept to each individual player - seems the fairest way and no messing about with transfers etc 2. If we come 1st/2nd - my view would be all winnings won in the 18k games should be split equally by the team - though if the majority says otherwise im happy to go with what is decided. 3. reagrding the games it seems 1 game per week per team member - id suggest 1st come 1st serve initially and then if someone is stuck we can swap around, personally i think i will be avaiolable 4/5 nights a week but saturdays will probably be out for me most weeks and i think i will be at college on tuesday nights in a few weeks, but admittedly have a tenedency to miss it at times 4. finally what are peoples general opinions on the rake - im willing to give it a decent go if thats what the rest of the team is donig - dare say i will just try and bang in some sng's when i have time think thats it - any feedback apppreciated:) and nice one oobs and ag for volunteering for captaincy and admin:hope lets get it on.........up the roses!!!:nana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ooblio Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Roses Starting at 00:01 tuesday morning we can achieve 3000 bonus points up to 23:59 on the 31st august. Approximate calculations are as follows: 7 in team. 1 point equals $1 stake,therefore divide 3000 by the 7 of us, equates to approx $430 each, divide that by 7 days, equates to $60 in stakes each per day. :ok Think we can achieve that easily. If any team member goes over that, it will cover any other shortfall, and maybe cover other weeks :unsure I will pm everyone with an idea, which might help ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Re: Betfair Challenge - Team Roses 1 point equals $1 stake' date='[/quote'] By my maths (and I definitely accept that I could be wrong), you should get about 1.3 points for every $1 staked. That's assuming that 1 point for every £0.05 equates to 1 point for about every $0.08. (I presume Betfair use a relatively current exchange rate and not just $2=£1 :unsure) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
