World Cup has always been more about filling the poker schedule during the summer, and at least this time around SBR listened to feedback and made some great changes...good stuff
I miss when the dailies broke last September and they gave us freerolls. Unlimited entries per day, slightly smaller prizes. Those were good times.

Hrm, I don't remember that...guess I missed out! But SBR gives away plenty of points via the dailies they do run...any griping I do about formats is minor compared to the freebies they hand out hundreds of times a year, won't see me complaining about that

pizza exchange rate roughly 2125 or 2250 = 100 bucks (i can't remember off hand whether pizza's are 425 for 20 bucks or 450, and i'm too lazy to go check)
Plus ALL the points you win and rollover which might match or beat what you earn in the tourney

All but 4 people who made the teams last year won far more points in the dailies than they did for being on the winning team. This year is a little shorter, but there's no doubt most players will end up in the same boat...the dailies are the real prize for participating

I just realized I cashed out 8500 points from the triathlon even though I didn't win any of the final prizes. People don't see the big picture. They just focus on the final prizes.

SBR poker team championship

SBR will select team leaders per say, Gummo, Jake , Autodonk, The money shot, Bitemyusdj, Smitch124, Triple D , etc and then according to the handicap given by the SBR player rating make up the teams.
Again, just a thought.
Best regards to all
Great idea! that would be fun and something new. Would take a lot more thought than most of these other poker comps while this years World Championship seems better with rule change, still love that idea Sin for future.
