done.

can i ask why the poll and the coaches box are "tabbed"?

would be much easier if they were just one below the other.

we can scroll down in browsers you know. :D

The poll seemed odd, I voted 1 day, 10k start stacks.
But there was an option for 2 flights, Sat/Sun with side events. I have come to expect side events now with all major 888PL events. This is part of the 888 "Show". the players love that carnival atmosphere, so I would say side events goes with out saying.
I also think a one day event, even if it culminates into a few hours on the Sunday as previously suggested would be gold, and would be a great warm up/introduction to the Grand Final. And would hopefully tease the players into really striving for a GF birth to be able to play a full 2 day event.
And also the 10x multiplier option threw me.
Are you suggesting that the semi be for points?
I'm all for a 10x game being played as a side event, but not having it as the main event.
:D

So is the poll for real? or is the structure already set and 888pl are just looking for input from the players?

I voted for the 2 day event, but the deeper 10k one day event would also be fine.

i wanted to vote with my heart and pick the 2 day deep stack as i know this is my style of poker.

truth is though if it got up i would never be able to attend

so i went for the 1 day 10k as a comprimise.

trying to convince my family that it is worth me spending and entire weekend away from home for poker every 15 weeks is not something that is feasible for me.

the GF however is only once or twice a year and so is much more user freindly ( my personal oppinion only)
Does anyone know how to make money playing uno vs 6 year olds, its about the only card game i get to play these days.
