Today we had an amazing turn out – 26 players for the first time ever and yet more new members to join the group.
Albert Erfan, one of the new players, was drawn as the jackpot player but was not successful.
Because of the increase in numbers, Gary has changed the prize structure to add an additional prize – see part of his email below..
With 24 or more players we can expect all three prize-winners to have won all three of their matches.
That means that anyone who has lost one match has no chance of winning a prize.
I don’t like that situation as these people would lose incentive.
I want the one-match losers to have a chance at a prize (as was the case when our numbers were below 24).
Therefore as of next week there will be four prizes instead of three.
To achieve this there will be two changes.
1. The jackpot will be reduced from 10% to 5% of the pot.
With more players the jackpot will go off less frequently so it will still accumulate well.
2. 5% will be shaved off 1st prize, bringing it to 45% of the pot.
Again, the pot being larger will hardly affect the prize total.
So, to summarise, the top four scorers will receive 45-25-15-10% of the pool and the jackpot will be 5% of the pool.

3rd Andrew Scarf

| Three happy chappies -Alec Barr and Kee Yio Wan in a friendly battle, with David Reitzin on the sidelines |
 |
| Ben Anderson and a very chuffed Steve Clarry - that double one must have been pretty special |
 |
| Jenny Saunders and Peter Koorey in the first round |
Hammon Mans and Andre Marootians arm wrestle for the match - maybe- maybe not.
