Prize packs for 2009

[BigPete33]

I can only speak for myself but I'm completely over keyrings... how many of the things can actually be put to use?

The Final Table Tokens are ok but as long as they are FOR something (not fussed what, as long as it's something)

I'm a big fan of the bottle openers.. I have those all over the place so I never have to look too hard for one

Stubby holders would be great! maybe some playing cards? the DVD should be for the 1st out, not for the person who is less likely to need it.

I don't have an issue with dropping the prize for 3rd.. a lot of venues give nothing for 3rd and also if you give something for 3rd you may as well do the same for the rest of the final table.. none of those made it to headsup either.

Someone mentioned venue prizes for end of season.. how that's not up to the venue itself to organise I'll never know.

Keep the trophies, just make sure they're not rubbish - current ones seem fine and I like the alternating colour idea.

Im glad that the FTT will be used for regional events only, some regions were months behind others in getting these prize packs.


My ideas for prizes are that a trophy should stay, and that minor prizes should be things that people don't mind having more than one of.
e.g. stubby holders, coffee mugs, beer glasses and packs of cards (the partypoker cards in early seasons were the best prizes ever)

I dont think many people are unhappy about recieving a DVD for the first time, just annoyed that subsequent third places mean nothing. You dont need more than one hat or bottle opener or same issue of bluff.

For me, i would love to try and collect a set of 6 beer glasses, 20 stubby holders or whatever. And nobody complains about getting an extra set of decent quality cards.

This would keep the small time players and the whores happy. (And btw, the tombstone trophies were the best looking - i wish i had one)

Agree with the above. Except the openers ... always handy having afew on hand

I liked the glass "tombstone" trophies 'cause they don't take up too much room. I do realise they don't immediately look like poker trophies, but..... they do look far more classy

PLEASE can we have the glass trophies back. They look like something most people would be happy to receive/display - unlike the plastic monstrosities that look like they came from the local "$2.00 Shop"

I am really enjoying the feedback.

All staff in VIC and SA can you please report in your opening the spiel that we are discussing upcoming prizes for 2009 and now is the time to have your say before everything is finalised.

Players if you could push other players to get on here and at least vote that would be freaking awesome!!!!


Come on guys, more interaction, it's not often I ask for your say and you have the opportunity to influence something big in the competition that dominates the world!!!! NPL!!!!!!!!


Huge overstatement, but I love poker, I love NPL and I love all NPL players!!!! (hmmmm, maybe another huge overstatement) too many red bulls will do that.

Maybe get the boys and girls to mention the forum in their opening speeches again?

Its how I joined

And yes, the party poker cards were awesome! Two seasons on and I'm STILL using mine. In fact, I could do with another packet, the other ones are getting a bit worn out.

Hi..I'd like to see the return of the 'Glass Trophies'! I thought they were very classy looking. To be honest I have never heard one positive comment about the current trophies. Generally people say they look cheap, the colours are horrible and I tend to agree. The DVD's have to go, I think seeing a stubbie holder, coasters, cards, maybe a gift voucher for you site, so people could go shopping and choose there own NPL promo gear.

The current trophies are good, one of each chip colour would be cool to add to the collection. we are lucky enough to have one of each trophie npl have had on offer!!

I like the idea of the different variety of prizes, stubbie holders, coasters glasses, coffee mugs, cards are cool (have about 6 party poker decks still).

What about something special for female winners!!?? haha prob a long shot but worth mentioning. no ideas though on what
