Happy new year Donks!
Welcome to Badonkās Golden Donks League.
All silver and Gold Donks will play in the same Golden league now!
1st quarter of 2024 starting in two days
Start of 2024 Q1
Get ready for the first quarter of 2024! Our regular league games for the first quarter of 2024 start on
Wednesday, 3rd January, at 3PM ET and 9PM ET (New York time).
Experience has shown that those who play often and well tend to finish high on the leaderboards. So donāt miss the chance to have a great start into the new quarter!
This rest of this message contains important information about leaderboard awards, the Tournament of Champions, our quarterly All-Donks-In series, and minimum participation requirements. Please take the time to read it.
Awards
Like last quarter, we have five quarterly leaderboards (one for each weekly game and one composite leaderboard) for the Golden Donks. At the end of the quarter, each leaderboard winner receives a virtual crown and is inducted into the Hee Hawl of Fame. This quarterās leaderboards will be hosted on our league website here:
https://donks.netlify.app/leaderboards/2024/q1/
In addition, donāt forget that we have two annual championships, the winners of which will receive a virtual Ring of Flames award at the end of 2024:
-
The 2024 European Annual Championship is based on all 2024 Wednesday 3PM ET and Sunday 3PM ET league games from both the Silver Donks and the Golden Donks tiers.
-
The 2024 American Annual Championship is based on all 2024 Wednesday 9PM ET and Sunday 7PM ET league games from both the Silver Donks and the Golden Donks tiers.

Invitations to the Tournament of Champions
The Tournament of Champions is hosted weekly on Mondays at 3PM ET.
Members of the Hee Hawl of Fame are eligible to play in the Tournament of Champions. In addition, the chip winners of our regular league games on Wednesdays and Sundays are invited to participate in this prestigious tournament. The winner of the Tournament of Champions leaderboard receives a virtual Tournament of Champions bracelet.
-
If you win chips in a Wednesday tournament, you will be invited to the Tournament of Champions the following Monday.
-
If you win chips in a Sunday tournament, you will be invited to the Tournament of Champions one week later (8 days after the Sunday tournament in which you won chips).
If you have won chips and are thus eligible to play, you will receive an invitation message (usually on Thursdays) and be able to register before the start of the tournament in the HHoF lobby: Free Texas Holdem, Free Online Poker - Replay Poker
Bye Week and All-Donks-In
The bye week for this quarter is scheduled for Wednesday, 21 February and Sunday, 25 February.
The format for this bye week is yet to be determined.
Minimum participation requirement
We would like to remind all Donks that the league requires its members to commit to playing regularly in at least one of our four regular weekly tournaments. If extraordinary circumstances prohibit you from meeting this requirement, please get in touch.
Good luck and we are looking forward to seeing you at the tables!

NO, ITāS NOT A NEW LEADERBOARD !!
Iāve noticed that BW hasnāt had a chance to update your leaderboards yet (obviously enjoying her well earned holidays) so Iāve resurrected my old Donks LBās and popped in some results to give you something to look at in the meantime. Itās been updated to include all games completed so far.

I believe the composite leaderboard has a glitch in it. The Sunday late game seems to have been counted twice and another game may also have been as several players have 10 games showing and only 8 games have been played. For my score it shows 3 games played even though I only played 2 and the Sunday Late result was added twice.
