National Heads-Up Poker Championship SBR Contest thread

[BiTeMe UsAdOj]

You guys want points system like March Madness or pick the winner, win the whole thing? The latter is what I was shooting for

I'm with you, dane... winner takes ALL like the initial post indicated.

[playersonly69]

You guys should do it like this I think


Everyone gets 6 players picked by draft.


Now for the final 8 players in the tourney, they could be scored this way.

Any players on your team that ONLY makes the final 8 gets 1 point. If one of your guys or more make the final 4, then you get 2 points.

If one of your guys finished second, then taht is worth 3 points. The overall winner is worth 4 points.



This makes picking your whole 6 players important since you really want at least 2 of your guys in the final 8. Someone who picks lets a guy who finishes in 2nd but also have other players in the final 8 deserves a shot to win.

fukkin hell lol. PM me your rankings or just post them in this thread

[daneblazer]

fwiw, I'd like winner take all. I have enough accounting to do lol. Still waiting to hear from Louisvillekid1. I sent a pm to the wrong address. If we have a no-show PO will take over.

[BiTeMe UsAdOj]

The original idea from dane was winner takes ALL... that's what I responded to... I assume others read original idea and responded to what was presented as the contest. Winner takes ALL....

[BeerDog99]

is PO in this contest?

[playersonly69]

I was only getting in if someone doesnt show. But I guess that you guys could do it with 9 just as easily

Thats no fun lol


What we could do and it would be super easy to manage would be this way.

1. You do your random number generator thing to see pick order.
2. Everyone makes 1 pick and the picks can't be repeated.
3. You choose who vs who in first round
   For example I choose Huck Seed, and You choose Ivey. If Huck wins his match than I get 3 points, if they both win their match than both players get 1 point each.
4. If I remembered correctly than Round 1 is in 4 parts so we could all choose a person for each of the 4 rounds as they happen. Than the person with least points is eliminated when they go to Round 2
5. And the draft order is randomized for the NBC Heads Up Round 2 and the matches are randomized as well and if its a odd number than that person gets 2 Points for win.

Lol this would make this more degeny and fun if anyone wants to do this format. I could keep track ina Google Spreadsheet so we can see rankings and I would update the available picks that are in each round and section.

[daneblazer]

I don't care if PO makes 9, but someone will have odd amount of players

[sweep]

unreal I make a thread about this and get passed over

[BeerDog99]

so, we pick 4 players in the first round and 4 in the second?

[playersonly69]

I meant to say 8 above. I actually thought that you had 10 players and everyone was getting 6 players.


If somehow one of those other 2 won, then it would go to second place as the winner. Just an idea to increase the pool

[Louisvillekid1]

unreal I make a thread about this and get passed over

that would make even 10

[sweep]

Let me know if I can get in...Ill get someone to stake me at 2/day. I gotta leave for work now. Be back on the forum in the morning. Later

[playersonly69]

You could play with 9 players and I pick last. Then everyone would get 7 players each

Assuming you guys know who is playing who for the first round? If you accidently selected two guys playing each other right off, that's an epic fail, no?

[IMightBluff]

We doing it who ever wins the overall thing. So its kinda a fail if own players are playing each other but doesn't really matter.

[BeerDog99]

Ya, that will suck and is quite likely to happen.

[CarolinaDaze]

The way i look at, if that were to happen, at least thats 1 player you garuanteed to have in the next round (32 Players Left).
