Tier entries
Each player subscribes a mandatory £30 to the Thrift Tier. Upgrades (but never downgrades) are permitted at any time until the day before the tournament: simply transfer the appropriate increment to sort code 09-01-28 account number 09171270, including your name as the reference, and email me confirmation.
Below are listed optional higher Tier subscriptions received so far. Understand that upgrading to a particular Tier automatically subscribes you to all the Tiers below - e.g. a Silver player pays an additional £90 on top of Thrift, making a total of £120; that £120 then goes £30 into the Thrift prize fund, £30 into Bronze, and £60 into Silver. Remember that the Tier prize funds are separate from each other: e.g. the winner of a Silver prize in a particular flight will be different from the the same flight's Bronze and Thrift beneficiaries if a player subscribed to those Tiers progresses further.
Bronze - additional £30 on top of Thrift (£60 total); 13 players, playing for an additional £390

Side Pools
All side pools are optional and are separate from each other. You may enter a maximum of two adjacent value pools in any flight. Each pool will be returned 70% to the player (or divided equally between those players) who are in that pool, and who progress furthest in the relevant flight, and 30% (or similarly divided) to the player who progresses second-farthest. Note that pool winners will not necessarily be finalists in their flight.
Subscription(s) for lower flights than you actually play in, will be refunded: e.g. you subscribe to each of the £10 pools for all four flights, get relegated first to Consolation, and then to 2nd Chance, but avoid Last Chance; you will be refunded your £10 Last Chance pool subscription.
You are strongly encouraged to subscribe to side-pools either at the same time as you register to attend, or in advance of the tournament. There will also be a very limited time window on the Saturday morning of the tournament to join side pools.
To subscribe, simply transfer the appropriate sum to sort code 09-01-28 account number 09171270, including your name as the reference, and email me confirmation.
