NEW 299er EVENING 7:00 JACKPOT GAME

The 299er turnout at 7:05 is improving significantly and this Jackpot game is our incentive to build attendance of 299ers at 7:00.  

•  You must play with another "human" to win. 
• To WIN, you must have at least a percentage that matches the target percentage (starts at 75%) or higher (if two pairs - then the highest percentage wins)  Only one pair can win in a given night. 
• The JACKPOT starts at 50 BB$ (for a pair) and increases by 1 BB$ for each night unclaimed. 
• The TARGET percentage starts at 75%.  Each week, on Sunday, the Target % goes down by 1% (the 2nd week, if unclaimed will have a 74% Target). 
• Once someone wins the Jackpot, the prize and target reset the very next night (50 BB$ and 75%).  

We have a goal of at least 10 tables per section at night - benefiting both the 299ers and the Open section.

299ER NIGHT GAME JACKPOT​ WINNERS

The 299er Jackpot has been won three times as of now:

• May 10th 73 BB$ Won by Laura Welton - D. Scott Welton with a 71.88% game
• April 15th 94 BB$ Won by Lynn Wilson - Lyle Priddy with a 69.44% game
• February 28th 79 BB$ Won by Ann-Marie McBride - Dave Lehrer with a 73.96% game
• January 22nd 58 BB$ Won by S Langdon - Shay Decandia with a 78.82% game
• January 12th 92 BB$ Won by Eileen Evans - Sandra McCann with a 68.06% game

MORNING CONTEST - TOP FOUR SECTION MASTERPOINTS AT THE 9:30 GAME EACH WEEK 

We have 

• 199er Sections Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday mornings at 9:30
• 299er Sections Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings at 9:30
• Open Sections Monday thru Saturday mornings at 9:30

The FOUR players that have earned the most masterpoints in EACH of  the 9:30 199er section, the 9:30 299er section, and the 9:30 open section will win a free entry the following week (separate contest for each section).  Once the winners are announced each week, if they buy an entry in any 9:30 game the following week, I will transfer BBO$ into their account to refund their entry fee the next Sunday.

The intent is to have a separate game for the 199ers and the 299ers, but at the same time give the Open players the extra benefit from the subordinate tables.  

EVERY SUNDAY I will announce the winners from that week.  I will also make the BB$ transfer on Sunday to every winning from the previous week that did participate in the following week.
