Can any other team in the central west match this?

Since Team New Era formed around a month ago, we have had an incredible start as a team, so i thought i would post some statistics on how our team has done in there first month:

Total Team Wins: 7

Final 8: 25

Top 16's: 31

not a bad effort for the new team in town and i must say i dont think any other team can match this effort in the last month, and these dont include the sunday A event either as they arent on the site for some reason and the wins arent included as top 8s either they are seperate, so ive got a question for tamin, if we are the worst poker team in the region according to you of course, why dont you post the best teams statistics according to you?

keep it going lads, unfortunatly i wont be there tonight but i will have someone there giving me updates.

Number 1 team in the central west is New Era, we told you all before we started, dont act surprised

Daniel "Lumberjack" Burfitt joins team New Era

Daniel has become the latest addition replacing Shannon "wolf" Hart who moved to QLD, however shannon is still part of New Era but representing us in QLD
Daniel wasted no time showing he is worthy of a place in this elite team by finishing a strong 3rd on debut for us lastnight, craig piper continued his good form by placing 6th and james mann another strong finish placing 8th
Also lastnight 4 New Era members ventured down to the Aaron hotel to play in the NPL $10 buy-in event with all doing well with Jason Hurford finishing 3rd Darren Morris 4th and myself 6th while Mark Beard finished 12th
I must say having now played in both leagues the APL is a standout with the way its run the NPL seemed to lack the atmosphere and vibe of the APL and as such i will not be playing in anyNPL free rolls, and only play the cash events when there is a first prize of over $200, the NPL needs to step there game up with the way its run or it wont last in Orange

First Ever JACK 9 poker event

We are currently organising the first ever Jack 9 poker event, its open to all players, it is still in the early stages of planning and will hopefully be held in around 6 weeks time. for those interested leave your name or speak to myself or mark beard at poker within the next 4 weeks, it is an exciting concept and something a little different for everyone

New Era continue its dominance as Darren Morris wins

Once again new era have another win under their belt with The Rake Warrior Darren Morris wins at the ex services club in the sunday B event, while in event A Jeremy Layton finished 2nd, it must be said that 3 weeks ago there were a few comments going around from another crew about our credetials and they failed to see us as a threat, those must now have egg on there faces, they know who they are.............

Pipes just falls short of maiden APL win

New Era member Craig "pipes" Piper failed in his bid to win his first APL event finishing a gallant second at the ex services club on thursday night, starting the final table as the short stack pipes fought his way to heads up only to run into pocket Queens in the first hand of heads up and crashing out, i feel a win is not far away for pipes as his poker play has improved this season and if the bloke who won last night can win theres hope for anyone LOL

Shannon gets 3rd but OPC have the last laugh

Shannon "wolf" Hart finished 3rd at the royal hotel last night but the winner on the night was the OPC leading player Ian "turtle" "buddah" Kenny who took out myself (with a lucky turn) and shannon lastnight on his way to victory over Stan "ive got a million bad beat stories" Lafferty, this is a wake up call to New Era that we will have to perform on a weekly basis if we are to be able to claim best in the west honors, the war has just begun

With a new Season comes a New Era

As a new season begins today, our team will be trying to become the most dominant team in the region, while having 3 of the top 4 players from last season we cant claim no victory as the team was only formed a week ago but this season we will see who is the best out west, now i know some players from the OPC (beau) dont rate the free poker and i do agree with him on a certain level but this is all we have here and some people do like it and we have to deal with it, so good luck new era members and fellow teams from the region, let the new season begin
