Last Longer Bet Tournament

[Zab]

Start scratching your head and say what???

Ever seen a group last longer bet tournament? I'll explain.

Every time a player is eliminated, everyone else gets paid points. The farther you make it, the more points you get. Each time someone goes out, the pay outs get bigger and bigger.

The example I have below is assuming a 40 person tournament, each person puts in 125 points:


Players Left Pay Out Points Paid
40
39 1 39
38 1 38
37 2 74
36 2 72
35 3 105
34 3 102
33 4 132
32 4 128
31 5 155
30 5 150
29 6 174
28 6 168
27 7 189
26 7 182
25 8 200
24 8 192
23 9 207
22 9 198
21 10 210
20 10 200
19 11 209
18 12 216
17 12 204
16 13 208
15 13 195
14 14 196
13 14 182
12 15 180
11 15 165
10 16 160
9 16 144
8 17 136
7 17 119
6 18 108
5 18 90
4 19 76
3 19 57
2 20 40
1 20 20
0 21 0


Long story short, the most you could win was 409 points, you'd need 19th place or better to break even. This would in addition to a money prize pool.

Thoughts? Bad idea? Don't understand it?

This is an interesting idea. I like it.

[MrPokerVerse]

I like the idea, looks like it would run for everyone, for every tournament you factor that into the coupon price?

[gametime74]

not a bad idea, i will play..

[rrickir]

do u have to be in it every tourney?? or is for a special LLB tourney???can u have a choice???

[Zab]

This would be a special tourney.. I don't even know how it would work to be honest lol..

Just some goofy idea I had

[MrPokerVerse]

Sounds like my kind of tourney! Don't know to many as goofy as me. Where do I sign up?

[watte29]

Interesting idea, guess this can be fun

[Zab]

What if I took 5% of all LLBs and added to this promotion EVERY tourney.. Granted, the people who don't make LLBs would benefit.. But, it could be something fun?
