5 Comments

 
The final meeting of BRC for 2011 to decide the 2011 BRC Championship was held on the 16th December 2011 at Maverick's Top Gun Academy. Many thank the Maverick and support crew Mary for a great evening includind dinner and deserts. Graet hospitality and venue. As usual it was a fun evening and there were of course the highlights:

1. Arrival started at 8.30pm with the delayed start due to late arrival of Maverick
2. Pizza were provided and were emnjoyed by the members present
3. Arrival of Dam It!, The Rok and Maverick around 9.15pm saw the meeting start around 9.20pm
4. First win of the night went to the Professor
5. Some good wins by BigBluff early set the way forward for a good night for BB
6. Some interesting games as usual including some new variations with the "George Box" being played by Developer
7. TC Jagger was keeping careful count of the wins tally between himself and BB and was deflecting unruly comnments from Banker and Developer who looked like the old pair from the Muppets on the balcony
8. Refreshments were delayed to 11.30pm with some members anxious to go to double chip bets at the 11pm usual time
9. KK presents were distributed by card draw with all scoring some good gifts. TC Jagger brought some additional gifts in the form of RPC credit card wallets. Photos were taken
10. Game recommenced around 11.45pm with all anxious to bid for the title.
11. A close fought battle saw the last hand at around 1.35am with BigBluff securing his third consecutive win of 2011 to come from 8th on the ladder to clear first place on 55 points and BRC Champion for 2011 and achieve back to back championships- What a Player!!!!
12. Second Place for the year went to TC Jagger on 51 points  followed closely for third overall place The Professor on 50 points
13.In 2011 we completed 7 meetings a record. BB will be publishing a time table to fit in a max of 6 games ( min 5 game ) with a least 1 visit to the Gold Coast /Brisbane.
14. Can the strangle hold on the trophy change from BB and TC Jagger for 2012? Can other members of the BRC team stand up and be counted.
15. All bid a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year looking forward to the 2012 BRC Season

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MEMBERS AND THEIR FAMILIES!!!

The Rok- Changes to Rules

Many Thanks to the Maverick family
for hosting the final BRC for 2011.

It must be pointed out that there was
more than just cards shuffled on the
night.
The table placings prior & after are
to be highlighted.
The movements brought about by
the double points seems to make
the games during the course of the
year ... TOTALLY IRRELEVENT.

I think this needs to be addressed
& discussed in the new year.
This is not a case of sour grapes on my
part but merely an observation.

Instead of double points .. we could maybe consider ... offering bonus points to the first 3 placings of the final game.

Say.....
1st ..... 4 bonus points = 13 total
2nd ..... 2 bonus points = 11 total
3rd ...... 1 bonus point = 9 total

I welcome any feed back .

I think this is a fairer alternative and will better reward the consistant performer during the year rather than the one lucky so & so in the final game.

Merry Xmas to you all & your families,

Regards,

The Rok

Maverick,

Let's discuss the "No" Vote over a beer or 2 on me before the next meeting.

Vote No for Rule Changes- Emails
1/9/2012 12:01:17 pm

BB & Jagger ,

Vote NO ! ...... Ridiculous !!!!

Are you still trying to influence the thinking of others & obviously " stack the chips" in your favour .

As Julius Caesar said ..... " Let the Mob Decide "

I vote YES to changes & I am sure that the other fair & like minded members would also concur .
They cannot be influenced or bullied in
such an important decision .

Right will prevail .


The Rok.
