Thanks @Stubbe-Unibet ^^ May i suggest an adjusment to the earning points for the leaderboard in the next leagues? Feels a little wrong to me that anybody who won any of the last 2 tournaments got a top 3 placement sealed, although they had the same number of players as the lower gtd ones

[Pickleman]

@Stubbe-Unibet yes even though I was the beneficiary of this, I agree with @MicroBeard that the points system should be like before - counting up from min cash to winner in single points. That way you get more points if you win a bigger tournament, but you don't win too big from coming first, and don't win even bigger from coming first in a bigger tournament. The point is if you come first, you're already winning big, whereas the point of a leaderboard is to reward consistency over a series - and for that you need to recognise lots of small cashes.

If it's any consolation @MicroBeard a had another cash which didn't count because I didn't have my community nick

[Jok3rpoker]

True true, Sparrow. In one way perhaps, wasnt expecting else than a fold around :) but just to make it clear, the only hand in this AIPF which is the right call is the guy with KK,  going all in with AQ / AK preflop in those positions isnt really the right call anyways. But yeah, understand the frustration. I went all in with AA and lost VS 42 hand thats worse 

[Jok3rpoker]

I also did, in one of the R/A yesterday, my alias is J_Pok3r...... No gift received yet

[absolutetanka]

Congrats to the winners. 

Good luck to the reamining contenders.

Will be watching till the end again today and attempting to capture the action

@Pickleman , @MicroBeard appreciate the feedback. It was actually intentional; wanted the leaderboard to be open till the very last tournament as well as make it possible for players to join in late and still have a shot at a prize :) I do agree however that it was too much, as the player numbers dwindled a bit towards the end. Using the payouts for leaderboard isn't perfect - pointed that out myself prior to the league starting - but it was chosen for simplicity (and for the aforementioned reasons). For the next community poker promo, we'll probably skip the leaderboard aspect completely (will be back later) and focus on the jackpot: with prize for making top 3 in both tournaments as well. I'm thinking something like this:

Monday: two * €1 tournaments

Tuesday: two * €5 tournaments

Wednesday: two * €10 tournaments

Thursday: two * €25 tournaments

Winning both tournaments of the day will give you a €1100 UO ticket. Finishing top 3 in both tournaments will give you 15 * the buyin in bonuspoints. Community alias a requirement to win the prizes. Promo will run from early January and for 4-6 weeks. There will be one daily qualifier (can be increased if it does okay) for each tournament.

Good choice skipping leaderboard, don't have to think is it worth to play if you miss some tournaments.

In addition to win both and top 3 positions, how about something that may reward playing all tournaments of week? Like win total of 3 tournaments in week or something?

[Farseer]

Sad to hear leaderboards getting disbanded. Just plain jackpot side on regular community events won't get me thrilled, would love to see some continuity at the tournaments. Without leaderboard or similar promotion which encourages people to play often, it feels boring. Just small MTTs with regular players you can play with around other tournaments, but without good chance to chat unless someone streams it.

With current player amounts average player has like 0,0X% chance to win both events at the same evening. So not really tempting. Though I do like how you constructed those top3 prizes to be tied to buy-in.

Point system was ultra bad, but no reason to skip leaderboard altogether :D Maybe use skip jump style fixed points system would work better, old one or new one:
