Best Averages - this will be worked out by dividing the amount of chips each player has won
during the league  by the amount of games they have played to give an average score
Players with the top ten averages will also be rewarded with a seat and given chips
in the following breakdown
		1st	20000	Chips	6th	9000	Chips
		2nd	15000	Chips	7th	8000	Chips

		5th	10000	Chips	10th	5000	Chips
to get an average, players must play a min13 times and at least once a week in 11 of the 13 weeks
obviously we expect some people will qualify for chips on 2 or 3 of the different
possible ways , in that case their chips will be added up to give an overall total
all players who then have chips will sit down for the bonus final with a £2000 prizepool
prizes will be awarded in the following way
		1st	£   750.00
