WHEN START:
September 21st, 2007 and every Fridays except for the 2nd Friday of every month due to Active Meeting. The starting time will be at 9:30 p.m. and takes about 4 hours to finish.

HOW MANY WEEKS:
We will have a 30-week schedule, starting on September 21st and ending on June 6th, 2008. The Finals will be on June 20th. You can play in all 30 weeks and most people do have some other commitments so we decided to give every player an opportunity to sit out 6 sessions throughout the season. If a particular player decides to play in all 30 Fridays, we will eliminate the lowest 6 weeks. There will be no SUBSTITUTION TO REPLACE YOU FOR 1 WEEK!!!

OVERALL TOURNAMENT (FINAL NIGHT):
All players who have played at least once in our League are eligible to play in the Final Tourney. For Who showed up between 24 to 20 Weeks each player’s points will be multiplied by 50 (rounded up to the nearest 25) and receive that amount in chips. For who showed up between 19 to 11 Weeks each player’s points will be multiplied by 30( rounded up to the nearest 25) for less than 10 weeks each player’s points will be multiplied by 10 (rounded up to the nearest 25) If there are 54 players in our league then we will have 7 tables and the top 7 point leaders will be seated at Seat #1 in each table. If a person doesn’t show up that night, he/she will be placed in Seat #3 and the chips will go in the pot during Small Blinds and Big Blinds until the half-hour mark and then the chips will go in at the highest amount of Big Blinds that time in every hand until the chips run out.

PAD Active Monthly Meeting
