-----------------------------------------------

Informatie poules:

We gaan zoveel mogelijk spelen in poules van 4, we verlengen de race naar de 6. Poules van 3 worden voorkomen, dus er kunnen poules van 5 blijven, daar wel race naar de 5.

Deze wijziging zorgt ervoor dat we meer poules hebben, meer spelers naar het MAIN EVENT gaan en meer spelers naar het SIDE EVENT €500.

De nummers 1 en 2 gaan naar MAIN EVENT, de nummers 3, 4 én 5 gaan naar het SIDE EVENT €500.

Het SUDDEN DEATH EVENT €150, van origine alleen voor de nummers 5 van de poules, blijft behouden. Spelers die niet tot de laatste 16 van het SIDE EVENT €500 komen, mogen spelen om de trofee en het prijzengeld (€100 + €50).
