Playing Live League games every week at my local pub, I was never concerned with the Prize money as By law you could only (officially) play for a £100 prize pool maximum, so paying out only the top 3 places, The winner could walk away with £50 or £60, but the other places were of course Limited to split the remainder.
I was always more concerned with the Points you could win in the League, because at the end of a 13 week season the top 3 players qualified to play in a Regional Final, and in that game there were cash Prizes for the top 10 players with the Winner, winning a Trip to Las Vegas to play in a £20,000 Tournament closed to the general public, and only open to League players who qualified.
It was a brilliant introduction into Live Tournaments because they were basically a Freeroll, the only money you bought in for was the weekly £5. at the pub. But from the experience I gained, I did venture into other Live Tournaments in Various Casinos. I have played in a few but unfortunately the nearest is around 80 miles away so travelling was a big factor, but I have been to Liverpool, Manchester, and Coventry all 100 miles plus away from me.
In the Pub every week the Guys used to start their own Cash game, after they lost in the weekly Tournament and that was where the money was, I often joined in after finishing on the Final Table and many a time walked away with £100 plus from the Cash game.
