How About a Team Tourney in December?

NPP will host the Heads Up Tourney again in December, but how about another night of poker – Team Style?

Here is how the Tournament Committee at NPP has drawn it up right now:

Everyone who wants to play in the Team Tourney submits their names via this blog or email. The Password is sent out via email for the Team Tourney.

Just as the tournament starts – The Teams are posted on the blog, so you have to have NPP open and refresh the browser to find out who your teammate(s) is/are. Depending on number of entries, it will be decided by the NPP Tournament Committee if there are 2, 3 or 4 person teams.

Points awarded same as for league play – per team.

Winning team is posted on the Player of the Year list.

Prize money transfers not the responsibility of NPP, but Faldo will be glad to assist in any way possible.

The blog is open for comments, suggestions, and questions. - Faldo

I like this, it would be something different. I could not do it if it is on a Monday or Thursday. You weren't clear on how the team winner is determined, would it be that all the place points earned by the team members are added up for each team or something else?

Yes, LRE - the points would be added together for both team members - to determine how many points a team gets.
I would have to adjust the point system to make sure the 'winner' of the tournament doesn't almost guarantee victory. I probably should adjust it so the 1st - 2nd and 3rd place finishers NEED their partner to WIN. But maybe not.
Lets see if we even get enough interest.
