Seasons run
for a period of four weeks where weekly
games will be played.
During these games, points are earned and
entered into the league table which will be
displayed on our website.
Please see scoring
for more information on how points are earned.
At the end of the season there will be numerous
people displayed in the league that are above
the red line, which is the top 25%
These players have all qualified for the
freeroll final and will be listed on the
invitations page
the day before the freeroll is to take place.
Players can qualify in two ways.
1) Be above the red line in a venue's league
2) Be above the red line in the "all venue's"
league
Players can play at multiple venues to
increase their chances of qualifying in the "all
venue's" league as their total accumulated
points over all venues will be displayed in this
league.
Winning players in the
freeroll final will
win entry into a scheduled
Fortune Poker tournament or
their buyin to their local casino if playing in
the pub.
Are there any charges at all?
Pub: No! It's free to play each
week. The freeroll is free to play and if you
win a seat at the casino your entry fee will be
paid for you. You really can win £1,000's
without paying a penny.
Online: Not from us. The only fee you
will be charged is the standard house fee that
all online casinos charge when entering their
tournaments.
Is there a minimum amount
me and my friends have to bet in our league
games to participate in the online poker league?
Yes. Your weekly games are
required to be a minimum of €10+1.
What am I paying €10+1
for? (online only)
The private tournaments you
create will require a buy in of €10+1.
The €10 is what goes in to the pot. The €1 is
the house fee that
Fortune Poker and all online
poker sites charge.
The €10's collected will be paid out amongst the
winning players according to
Fortune Poker's payout
structures.
Can I play in multiple
teams?
Absolutely. If it's the same
group of friends and you want to play 3 times a
week simply contact us and we will set you up
with three different leagues.
How do I know if I've
qualified?
Visit the
invitations page
and select your region. Your name will be
displayed here if you have qualified. This page
will be up to date 3 days before your freeroll is to take place.
Alternatively, if all tournaments from the
current season have been uploaded and you see
your name above the red line in your
venue's/team's league you can be sure you have
qualified. If you are not, but you are above the
red line in the 'all venues' league you will
have to wait for all other team's to upload
their results before we can confirm your invite.
How much do you give away at the freeroll?
Pub: We give away £100
total amongst winning players.
Online: €10 league - We put our winning
players into numerous tournaments. Please see
payouts for more
information.
If I win, which tournaments can I enter?
Pub: The payout
structure in the pub league has changed since we
first began. Feel free to keep hold of the cash
and spend it on anything you wish. If you would
like to play in a larger tournament we recommend
looking at Fortune Poker. It has some fantastic
tournaments to take part in.
Online: Please see
payouts for more information.
What happens if I finish in
the top 25% of more than one venue/team?
A place in the freeroll will
be offered to another player that has finished
just outside of the qualifying positions. This
player will be chosen by looking at all of the
venues you have qualified in and taking the
player with the highest score(s) through to the
freeroll.
If you have qualified in three
venues, two players with the highest scores will
be invited to the freeroll.
How long does the weekly tournament last?
Pub: The tournament will usually run between 2-3
hours.
Online: This is dependant upon the number
of participants.
10 players approx 1 hour
30 players approx 2 hours
How long will the freeroll
last?
This is highly dependant on
the number of players that have qualified.
However, it is likely to run for about the same
time as your weekly tournaments. This could rise
should we have a particularly large number
of participants.
Will I have to deal?
Pub:Each player takes turns to deal but if you
are not confident another player may deal for
you.
Online: Of course not, this is all
automatic.
Will I be able to smoke?
There will be breaks during each
tournament giving players the opportunity to go
outside for a cigarette or replenish their
drinks.
What if I'm busy
the day of the freeroll?
The date for the
freeroll final is strict and can not be
changed. You will forfeit your place if you are
unable to make it on this date.
Your place
will not be offered to anybody else. |
