YRPL Annual TAG Team Event
Important - When you register, please answer the question where it asks you who your partner is. ONLY ONE PERSON PER TEAM NEEDS TO REGISTER.
** We will not accept one person teams **
This is a non-league, standalone event.
Open to anyone age 19 and over. Limited to the first 30 teams (2 players per team - maximum of 60 players). Late registration is available for the first two hours of play. A player can not start the game without their partner at the venue.
Cost is $120 entry per person ($240 per team). This is made up of a $100 entry (all to the prize pool) and $20.00 ito help with the costs.
Re-entry (one per player for first 6 levels) is $120 for a full stack ($20 go to costs)
Game structure
- 10 handed tables - if maxed out
- Each player will start with 15,000 chips (meaning each team will effectively start with 30,000)
- Teams will be split into separate halves of the venue with each team member playing a 15,000 stack independently. Balancing of tables will be independent on each side of the venue.
- For the first 2-hours (6 levels) each player will play independently of his team partner. One re-entry is allowed per player at a cost of $100 for a fresh 15,000 stack
- Anyone that has not rebought already can surrendor their chips at the end of the 6 levels.
- Play resumes after the dinner break with each team combining their stacks. At this point, they must choose a player to start the play and thereon they must switch players on every blind level increase. There will be a random seat draw at this stage.
- Every team will also have a "one use switch chip" which they can use to make an impromptu change at any time. The option does not have to be used if not needed.
- Only one player per hand - there is no conferring with your partner during a hand whatsoever until the final table (see below)
- At the final table, each team will be given 2 TIMEOUTS enabling them to stop play for 1 minute to discuss a decision with their partner mid hand. While the timeouts are used, the tournament clock will be paused.
- Blind structure the same as regular YRPL league game and will utilize a Big Blind Ante
