Table leaders
So far this year two players have been
dominating and vying for the top spot in the
points league and have changed position at the
top a couple of times already although currently
any one of the top six could take the title if
the top two make a slip (which looks unlikely)
then it looks like either Paul Haig
or Mike Hawkins is up for the
trophy this year, only if either of those two
lose the plot or their game then it should make
for an interesting run for the top.
Points Table
Due to the many people who
go out of the game that do NOT inform the
tournament director when they are out it is
almost impossible to determine exactly when they
went out even if we discover who the missing
player may be, therefore it is now the policy of
MPC to refuse any point to that player,
accordingly we will adjust everyone else up one
point in the points table for that week.
Congratulations to Graeme
McCormick
on winning the
2009 MPC
Poker Player of the Year.
After what can only be described as the closest
run up to a final since MPC began some 3 years
ago Graeme secured his victory in the last game
of the year by playing his usual tight style
allowing his two nearest rivals to go out.
Congratulations to Graeme on what has been an
excellent year for him, well done. ( Pictures
will follow in the New Year)
Venue change
Due to difficulties with
the committee at Maryport Social club Ltd we at
MPC have decided to withdraw from this club in
order to maintain a smooth, efficient
and trouble free environment for
our players, we will now be playing 3 games in
the Bowling club and one in the Navy club until
further notice.
FORUM
I have noticed that while
many of you look at the points page and News
items very few of you bother to look at the
Forum, this is where you can have your say
and put forward your ideas, it's easy to join
and log in so why not give it a try plus there
is always news posted there that isn't always on
the main site. Have a look today and have your
say we value your input. Dave.
Kiss of death.
It has been said that every time I mention a
player on this site and how well they are doing
I seem to put the kiss of death on them, for
weeks after being mentioned their game goes to
the wall, the only thing I can say about that is
watch out all you table leaders, If I think you
are doing too well then you ARE going to get a
mention on this page, lol. Dave.
