    Was hoping the series long standings would determine the rankings.

    How many qualify for finale?

    Any chance to allow for a specific # of tournies per player a month/week (allowing some to play multiple tournies on days they are free) instead of rewarding those that can play a tourney every single day?

    Players who will make the finale or wont always be the bubble-boy have already received a PM with all of the details.

    They didnt want to tell you about it so it will lesson the blow when you bubble again

    lou is the poker finale going to be top 100 players only since there are no satellites?

    seems to be a good cutoff IMO.

    I would recommend only paying the top 10 or top 5 finishers.

    Really no reason to pay out 20 places since we have to roll the points over anyway. It is stupid to play on the tables with just 20-40 points. Just pay out 10 places and pay more for last

    Is there a limit on the number of Tourneys you can play?

    i agree with rudy.. anyway to use the standings as the leaders instead of a tourney? i always thought you should pay out prizes based on the rankings. its a crap shoot when you put everyone in a tourney..

    Or let us combine rollover amounts into one number, maybe if you have 4 or 5 20's - 50's you can combine them into one total.

    In this format it makes no sense that one tourney is much more important than ~50 others. Is like you would make in basket triatlon part 99 games you must place 1 unit and 1 game you must place lets say 50 units?

    It is special as it's the last on the schedule and the prizes are somewhat higher. It's not a good strategy to skip the dailies in favor of that tournament though as you'd have no shot at the top Triathlon poker spot.

    some good points here

    1st, any chance we have the tournament on sunday instead of saturday (same day as the final 4!)

    2nd, i agree with dan, i think we should be able to combine the rollovers or just pay 10 like po said. either one would be better.

    At the end of the Jan 7th - April 6th period the top 100 (based on the SBR poker points won) will receive TRI-points according to the chart. It’s correct?

    yes, scoring will be separate for the championship event in poker with its own prizes from what i understand, wont count towards tri points at all.

    New player so just wanted to check that you can play the poker tournaments even if your not a Pro, but just won't be able to be part of the Triathlon.
