    Record 14 point day for our Confederates team

    Unfortunately for Conf team World had a heck of a run today too for 11 points

    World has at least a tie for first locked up

    USA has at least a tie for 2nd locked up

    Conf at best can tie for 2nd but is still in a battle for 3rd place

    Canada needs to overcome a 2 point deficit to win 3rd
    Points Awarded:

    Slanina gave dlowilly 2 Betpoint(s) for this post.

    good analysis, dlo, well put/summarized....

    a lot of mathematical possibilities in best case/worst case scenarios..... world winning one tomorrow ends it all, except the 3rd-4th place battle....

    gl to the 8 guys hitting the felt tomorrow, esp. phish and jp!!!!

    been a fun cup.....

    and, dlow, congrats on your run, a first tomorrow and you'll have a great case for Jack Spiker, MVP!!!

    it's better than that all world needs is a win or a 2nd place to clinch and if that doesn't happen usa must win both tournaments for a tie

    yep, peavy and fish have to win and keep world off the board... tough order to accomplish......

    can't accidentally (or intentionally) felt can or confeds, as they have to be kept alive for the most part.....

    and, of course, strategic play like that generally always blows up in your face, but we've got to try.....

    Wow, can't believe those Confederates managed to come back so far to actually have a shot at 2nd place!

    that 10-2-2 flop vs franklee was my favorite moment this week

    What's the tiebreaker procedure anyway? Is it number of first places (do 3 first places equal 6 second places?)

    SBR Drew, comments? Does USA have a theoretical chance to finish 1st anymore?

    It says co-champions will be crowned in the event of a tie with equal division of the pot.

    Prize-pool
    Winning team: 10,000 betpoints per person
    Runner-up: 5,000 poker pts per person
    3rd place: 3,000 poker pts per person
    4th place: 1,500 poker pts per person

    Fine-print




    1. Must be an SBR Pro to represent a team.
    2. Users banned during the qualification period may lose their right to make a team at SBR's discretion.
    3. One entry per household.
    4. Tiebreaker will be SBRforum join date during qualification period. If contestants joined the same day, # of cashes will be used. If # of cashes is tied, # of points won will be used.
    5. It will be the responsibility of each team to decide which player will represent them per tourney. Players may compete in only one tournament per day. Players may not share the password with players that have not qualified under any circumstance - no points will be counted for that region. Events will be PW protected & player usernames altered to include region.

    Scoring details

    Each tournament will award 2 points for the winning team, and 1 point for the runner-ups team. Co-champions will be crowned in the event of a tie with an equal division of the pot. A leader board will be maintained in Players Talk showing how many points each team has.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    if USA wins both tourneys today, and WORLD scores 0 in both tournies , then there will be a tie for 1st place

    exactly.....

    pretty easy math.....

    then again, grivas has shown he's pretty clueless in that area, so I can see why he couldn't figure out how much adding 2+2 together equals, or come up with the answer to 40 - 36, and thereafter realize it's the same number.

    how does anybody ever lose to this guy?

    Since I'll have some points to roll, make sure you find me on the tables so you can try it again. Only this time, maybe stick around for a few hands instead running after a winning hand. But then again, these points may be critical for your well being, so who am I to judge.

    I bet Grivas to have the most points for Team World. So you know who I’m going for.

    I need to get paid on this 14 point bet.

    I would have been 6 of 6, apart from the JT/26 preflop miracle. Now I have to win to improve on Mannyfan's incredible performance.

    Team World just officially clinched.

    Turn gave USA's deadphish a straight (8-Q), river gave bracerman a full house (jacks and 10s)

    As I was typing, USA clinched second as dlo went out in third.

    So now it's just Canada vs. Confeds for third.

    1st World
    2nd USA
    3rd is a tie currently with one tournament remaining.

    My bets on the World Cup were terrible.

    well, the world cup was fun as always, I love the team aspect of it. Some very strong performances and some fun good-natured smack talk(for the most part).

    Now for the rollover....
