Wow.. the Spanish had a huge amount of people playing in their community teams (41 people!!) which combined with 78 people playing in teams made for 119 Spanish players against our 54.

Our news to it will be online later, although you can already check the results here: http://es.pokerstrategy.com/news/pokerstrategy/Marc5C-y-la-comunidad-hispana-se-llevan-la-segunda-ronda-de-la-Guerra_16118

The Mod Squad and Donkey Patrol crushed the Average finish ranking, while Team SoyCD also managed to grab a silver medal

Mod Squad also managed a silver for money won and were the team with the most ITM players (3)

So congrats there :)

We really need to try and make it all to the game!!!
11 people from the English teams didn't play this round (3from the "we min raise you!"). That'ss kindof a big handicap for the community since we're already weak when it comes to the number of players.
So please, try and make it to the game!!!


It sucks how outnumbered we are ;(

Everyone start to think of ideas on how we can change that and unite other members to join us in more teams!

I think a lot of Spanish people played due to it being a private tournament - boosting their community team numbers by crazy amounts. Next week it should be a bit more balanced again. It is of course a huge handicap when they have MORE than double our numbers.

I think taking that into account we actually did quite well and had e.g. Chiller won with his QQ vs 44 with 12 people left- things might have looked a lot differently.

After all we had 16 of the last 43 (so 16 vs 27) when it came close to the bubble, and decent chances for good representation at the final table. We just started running really really bad right afterwards :(

I think there are still decent chances of us winning this - since our teams just need to win a few medals and we are back in the race.

We minraize you: 24 Points (6 points behind first)
ModSquad + Donkey Patrol: 18 Points (12 behind first)

Any first place medals --> we go into the lead.

4 tournaments left. Lets make sure we appear in full numbers!
