Here's the final table from left to right for the Jack & Jill tournament sanctioned by the TBJPA. John & Linda Zimmerman, Larry B. (Dr. Bass), Tammy E. (Themom82), Bonnie & Dewy Douglass, Richard & Marie Krueger, Julie Clyman, Skip (Dreamer), Sondra Baker, John Carr. Final results: 30 entries, 15 re-buys = $3,750 + 10% added = $4,125 total prize pool. 1st = $1,856 = 45% - Richard & Marie 2nd = $825 = 20% - Dewy & Bonnie 3rd = $495 = 12% - John & Sondra 4th = $413 = 10% - Larry & Tammy 5th = $330 = 8% - John & Linda 6th = $206 = 5% - Skip & Julie This event was really enjoyable. Players drew for their tables and seats at the start of each round. After 9 hands the players would switch and then again after 18th and 27th hands, 36 hands total were played in each round of this event.
Tammy! 3 of 4 last final tables! Way to go Dr B and Tammy! Tammy had 2 of 3 at River Palms and bam! ANOTHER! Way to go Y'all. Skip, you have a mission, you know what it is.... Take down Jose :joker: You have the lead now talk your way thru!:laugh:
Congrats Way to go Larry, Tammy and Skip. Nicely done all. Glad to see three members from the blackjacktournaments.com community at the final table. Storm and I can't wait to see you all on Thursday.
Point leaders I forgot to post the points for the Jack & Jill event. The points will be awarded as follows: 1st = 20 pts. "split for this first event, half for each player". 2nd = 15 " " 3rd = 12 " " 4th = 10 " " 5th = 8 " " 6th = 6 " " Semi's = 4 " " Sign-up = 2 " " Several BJT.com members made the semifinals today, LHenryC, Swog, even myself, but fail to make it to the final table. Oh well at least we picked up half of the points (2 for each of us). Of course now I'm starting behind 12 players, anywhere from 1 to 8 points behind them.
Thanks, Barney and Thrasht! I can't believe I made another final table!!!! But could not of done it with out DrBass, he was a great partner. I hope to keep going strong this week. I have to miss a couple days, but will be back the end of the week, if not sooner. I am trying to work out the details. Good Luck to everyone in Tulsa! I hope to see a long list of BJT.com winners posted everyday. Tammy aka themom82
Thanks all Thanks for the congrats all - and especially to Tammy. She was a great partner too - made a strategic surrender on the last hand of the semis to send us to the final table. Having a great time here in Tulsa - hope to see ya'all at the final tables all week long. Drbass
No date.. penalty at Jack n Jill? I read a guy on another board complaining about getting a couple points just for paying into the Tulsa games. I say why not? You pay you get a couple points. Its called INCENTIVE. I think this guy couldnt get a date and is upset. Kind of like going to the prom by yourself! I propose give this guy a point what the heck! Kind of like getting a dance with the Algebra teacher at the prom, you didnt have a date but you did get a dance!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Extra Jills There were several Jacks without Jills in Tulsa. Players including Skip and Swog just to mention a few were grabbing Jills from the casino floor just to get into the event. Anyone wanting to play had the chance to get a Jill by signing up on a list or either by finding their own in the casino. They had 30 teams and everyone seemed to enjoy the format. For a first time event I thought it went over very well. I do agree with you that the 2 points for playing is just an incentive, as is the entire weekly bonus. It is designed to bring more players in for the entire week to play in more tournaments, I think it is a great marketing tool. As of now the points are earned as follows: 2 points for playing. 4 points for making the semifinals. 6 - 20 for making the final table. I would like to get an additional point for any rounds from which you advance between round 1 and the semifinals as well, but...
Only issue The Tulsa events have been pretty carefree. The only issue to come up so far is the insurance bet. The rules state insurance must be put up. However in the event of a players blackjack and dealers ace up, they are allowing even money to be taken. It really wasn't that big of an issue, but it drove Swog crazy...LOL If this is the only issue we have this week, then we'll be in great shape.
That Swog Is such a stickler for detail :laugh: I bet he is still writing in his notebook this morning. BTW, Skips approach to finding a partner must have been brains and beauty :gaga:
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! John (aka Thrasht) gave me (aka BarbT) the good news from OK when we spoke earlier today. Way to go Tammy, Doc Bass and Skip!!!!!!!!!!! Regards, BarbT
Congratulations to BJT.com members who won the event. As an aside I heard other BJT.com members were upset because they didn't find a Jill. Personally I think they make a nice couple! :laugh:
