Last Man Standing - Paddy Power

Anyone else do this? Basically you start off paying a pound and choose a premiership team TO WIN. If your team draws or loses your out, obviously if they win you advance to the next round. Theres normally a guarantee of £2000 jackpot. Not bad for a £1? Last thing is you can only choose the same team once so each week your left with less teams to choose which makes it interesting. New tournaments start up every week. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

It's good fun, it started back in 2008 i think I got down to the last 37 for a 10 grand jackpot which was a fiver in at the time then pompey screwed me and drew and I still had man utd to choose.

At the moment it is 1 quid per entry for a min of 2 grand jackpot, you can also set up private competitions which PP will manage.

Only 13 of us have made it to round 8. Going to have to have a look at fixtures this week as I haven't got the best of teams left now. Tempted to go for QPR home to Southampton.
