Appreciate there will be reasons behind the HU structure, but even so, it is pretty disappointing. I will be travelling a 180 mile round trip to play a tourney where the average stack will be 12.5xBB after just 40 minutes.  Considered unregistering, but don"t want to miss any of the events - feels like we may as well be flipping coins though.

Last year there were deeper structures for the later rounds and we were done and dusted by 10pm having started at 3pm - 30 mins later than this year (allbeit there is an extra round this year). Is there any pressure on us to finish by a similar time because if not I see no problem with the event going on till midnight or beyond?

I know you guys will do what you have to do but a deeper stack throughout would be very well received

Yup, I will have another chat with them before we get to Nottingham

They are a bit busy this weekend.

As are you Tighty, so thanks for looking into it.

PS - DTD website has some of the wrong info I pointed out earlier - 4k stack in the Stud & 3pm start in the HU

thanks. I need to speak to Simon Trumper



as to self deal, we know its not permitted in DTD. All about standards.

Of course the venue has a myriad of compensations for not offering self-deal

a) Stud starting stack will be 6k.

b) HU starting stack up to 3k (and then again up in the later rounds)

c) Online buy in will close today. Entry at the club only from then on for the few events with seats remaining (Stud, Omaha, Main)

Seats available for the Stud (plenty), Omaha (25 or so), Main Event (300 sold, 110 remain). These are on sale at DTD once the online entry closes. Would expect Omaha and Main to sell out by the weekend. Leigh Wiltshire may have news on a very small number of HU seats coming freee later today.
