New leaderboard is now posted, Everyone who's name is bolded has locked in a spot for the final game. Most likely cehee is locked in too, but some crazy shit could happen and knock him out.

How are tie breaks handled?

In the event of a tie, best overall average finish will get the last spot.

So I'm in 9th for best overall average finish correct?

I learned tonight watching you guys it can be really cruel sometimes.


I loaded a cash table to get the krill, but they could keep pushing me off. FS drained all my coins.


Would Krill come from the tournament game?

I am a bit drunk already, and I had some math in my head that I still need some points to secure a place in finals! This is a nice surprise that I am bolded, I have my spot!

Nice game, at first I had AK, AA, and all high cards hand after hand, and then nothing, till the end of tournament worst from worst! I saw A2 on big blind and I couldn't win JJ! I thought I will have luck after so many hands but nothing from big comeback!

Tomorrow I expect even better game! Some need to give their best to get in, it will be hard! I'm fully prepared, I have few more bottle of wines that wait tomorrows game! Good luck to all, and once again I am glad we play this awesome tournament!

tied with me and JTisCuban.

this is a close one! bubble time!

Good job wheelz. Ties were discussed a while back it will be the best average finish over all games played.

good point, i wonder if my 2-game handicap might actually help. where i didn't place, my finishes were near the bubble. i'm too lazy to do the math at the moment but my closest ~7 competitors played every game, so by the law of averages i might be in good shape if i tie for last place.

congrats on the win, @Hhampuz! you're still gonna need to crush it tomorrow.

I could be wrong in my math and you could be at a small risk to not get in, but I think if i did everything right you should be secured.

Lol, the Serbian Orthodox bro is a bit drunk... hahaha! I will be cheering for you man!

[morvillz7z]

Awful cards today, awful calls and an early exit which was to be expected. At least i had a good luck on some of my opponents for the championship game.

The race for the final three spots will be brutal, so tight. I'm glad i can just chill, observe others, and take some final notes without stressing much.

Congrats to Hhampuz for winning game #7!

I just have to place top 3 and auto on lol.  No pressure

  Yeah welcome to the runner up club now. You gotta say the leaderboard is smooth in playing their tricks.

I am big fan of trofo actually. I have observed him sucking up huge stakes though others will have big cards. He sometimes do it by increasing his chips, and thriving out everyone thinking that he has got flush, straight flush something like that.

I don't know, but this has happened surely. He has made me to Fold my cards many times even if i had big hand.

Would Krill come from the tournament game?

krill comes from rake so anything that has rake will make you krills
this championship has no rake thanks to SWC , so you won't make any krill playing these championship games alone ( in other tournaments you can generate krill since they are raked )

also if your goal is only making krills make sure you aren't playing the no-rake cash tables

[big_daddy]

only a first place (10 points) can bring me to the final, supposing that all other currently placed in the zone from the 6th place to my place (ceehe, Trofo, Newb2379, FOMA777, mac1551, JTisCuban, 1r0n1c, CoinEraser, Betwrong, SuckMyChips, bttBt and youcantwin) gets no points at all

daFck....  a hard level to pass...

This is definetly an argument to play the last tournament today even with noticing there is no chance to make it to the final table.

How do we get passwords for the tournament?

I have all the passwords but you need to play it nice - yahoo for example wont receive the final game's pass and I may instead give it to deadley - or pick a random winner!

Trash talk at it's best! Just kidding of course

Congrats, SuckMyChips on winning the yesterday's tournament!

Congrats, SyGambler, shipdachips, Obaming, Pitkins, Iv4n and ceehe on securing your position in the top 9!

Today's game is going to be the decisive one for 12 players from the above list, starting from big daddy. Indeed, ceehe is most likely going to qualify for the final tournament, so these's only 3 places left to compete for.

Can't wait for the start.

GL, everyone!

Thanks for that reply. I did play no rake due to low funds doh.

I think I need only 1 to enable the chat, how many do you get for cash game with the rake?

Ill fund it up later on ready for tonight. GF has been told.

I said Ive been invited to play in a fun competition with some bitcoin friends.

She said "What? Poker?"

FS I don't even get to be mysterious

Yes, you only need one krill. You will earn it at a low stake table very fast within a few Hands depending on your game style.

I am little confused. Who will play the runners-up tournament? Position 10-18 or all those who didn't qualify for championship and played at least a game or all those who got at least a point? Can you clarify

Very good question, thanks for asking webtricks. It's supposed to be a community event for all the poor souls who didn't qualify for the championship final and played at least one game - otherwise this would mean a weekend without poker with the fellow bitcointalk mates... unthinkable, no?!

[ceehe]

Hey Dudes, I broke my mobile display, so I might can't play.
Because every bank app wants me to log in on my phone to confirm it's the good old ceehe...
Wich is the stupidest thing ever in this case. 😭
But i can confirm my bank is safe. 🙄
So yeah i wish you all good luck today!... I will watch and pray that my points are enough 😎🙏🤞
