G.L. Private Collection

Tournament Director: John Greatwich

Details: June 6, G.L. Private Collection Doors open for practice at 5:45 pm & tournament starts at 6:45 pm. If you are late you will miss out on game(s) & points. $40 per player & this tournament is only open for registration before the event. Non guests of G.L. must be use to playing in league or tournament play. Registered with IFPA, If not you can give me your info to see if you can play. You will e-transfer or drop off the cash to me in advance. There might be a cap on players so do not wait until the night before registering. Refund 48 hours before if you have change in plans, etc. This is a huge collection & the owner will decide games used. There will be zero tolerance towards abusing the games, & will result in ejection! Hard to find private owners to host events.

The owner gets $30 per player, $1 towards IFPA, & $9 towards gambling pool. Everyone playing will be in it & the owner & his guests at $10 a player. Top 3 payout, 50%, 30%, & 20% We will play 8 rounds of head to head matchplay, top 8 into head to head matchplay. Winners & losers final in groups of 4 for top 8 & money for top 3! This will likely be the biggest collection of private games & likely a large crowd. So spread the word incase we decide to cap the players for this event. Modern games mostly, just a sample game that went through service by me in the past.
