I've got my poker table finally !! YAY !!
The National Poker League is having a rough time at the moment, but I finally got my last seasons winner prize delivered at home.
Its a very nice and solid poker table, not cheap material and it got its own legs. To bad it has big written PartyPoker.net's ad on it as I never play there, but the rest is very nice.
We just played the last day of this season, and the slack*sses havent updated the site yet, to see if I made this seasons top 5.
I'm currently in 4th position overall again, but didnt put any score in on last day, so still having my fingers crossed if I didnt got passed on the last day.
Normally they are very quick updating the results, but its the last one of this season so they have to screw this up too.
NPL is making a lot of mistakes, and are in a battle with one of their former employer, as he started his own tour (OzPokerTour).
I wont trouble you with all the things NPL was doing wrong before, but now they are in a battle over venues, they finally opened up the marketing channel, and trying to keep their players. This is what they were lacking before (communication).
Maybe one day I will go into detail what goes wrong, but for me getting the table I had to write an angry e-mail to them, to finally stand up and delivering my hard earned prize of the season behind.
Mind you I pointed out some other issues to, but only got response on the table delivery what they have picked up on the spot and delivered within the agreed time and date! WD (well done).
I liked playing for NPL at the venue Carlingford, but things changed and it aint as fun anymore. Ive agreed with some other players that we are going to use next season to try other leagues around like Oz Poker Tours and the Australian Poker Tour etc..
Anyway, hopefully I made it again for the 3rd time in a row to reach the New South Wales final of this league, as Im due for a good game to take another shot at the 15.000$ prize, or the paid seat in a 1.000.000$ tournament. But we have to wait untill they update.. grrrrr
Ow, they put an extra chipset with this table, thats a very nice gesture actually!
Now were am I going to store this prize :)
