Let's get a tournament challenge going (re-post)...

Teams of 3 


$20 per player ($60 per team)


Every player will play throughout the month of November and his top 10 PLB cashes, which will appear under his p5s "See All Scores", for tournaments of $10 and lower will be summed up for that month*. At the end of the month, the team with the largest amount of PLB points will be victorious and collect the money.  


If you have a team, join the competition! I can also do my best to pair you up with solo players, but come October 31st we need a number divisible by 3 obviously.


Please send me your $20 to my FTP or Stars account (WSOP Legend on both sites) and i'll confirm that you paid in the thread. Don't worry, I'm not going to scam you. I'm doing this to create a little excitement and competition!


*$3 rebuy tournaments and lower also count


Players who shipped their $20 so far:

WSOP Legend, Gosselinator, djohns04, Z1MM3RM4N, epbarz, The_matrix, MakeMeMaster, beck_AA, The Leaf, zod300, Kevhibs, RiverGif, Bonestein, wantagolf, sobizzle21, funnygut, CynicdarK, superstudwg04, kenn121, devinmcd11, and odstore

Drafted / Randomnly picked teams so far:

TEAM ZONACREW.NET (beck_AA, The Leaf, zod300)
The Canucks (Gosselinator, WSOP Legend, djohns04)
L squad (Z1M3RM4N, RiverGift, Kevhibs)
Team SFW (wantagolf, sobizzle21, funnygut)
3 Random Guys (CynicdarK, superstudwg04, kenn121)
Shipping Hazard (The_matrix, MakeMeMaster, Bonestein)
Car Ramrod (epbarz, devinmcd11, odstore)

KYL3 Anderson: 

Have my top 30 scores count. I'll ship $60 once I am approved. I'll come up with a team name once I am approved as well.

And I ttthink this competition is more about bragging rights than the money. But hey, the money sure as hell wouldn't hurt.



Of course this is more about bragging rights than anything else. If your team wins, the most you'll make out of this is a hundred dollars or two...Judging by some of the scores of some people who joined already, I doubt they'll take a few hundred bucks too seriously. Friendly yet competitive imo!

I'm not sure a one man team is a good idea. Would you mind being paired with anyone else?

CynicdarK: 
I am not the moderator but I think the reason the OP was making it not to include rebuys higher than $3 is because the point of this contest was originally for the lower stakes MTTers under $10 if your rolled for the $10r then you might as well be playing the $26's and $33's anyway.  This doesn't keep you from playing them, just counting towards your score. 


Thanks Cynicdark!
