In fact, thinking about it...I don"t need to do much scribbling. We already have a perfectly workable structure...it"s the same as the HORSE! [/facepalm]

I took a look at it and the average "Completion" bet is c.55% of the "pre-flop". pot....seems right to me.

6K starting stack (as per the HORSE) with the same structure...no problem. In fact, it should go quicker than the HORSE because everyone has to ante and there are no split-pot sections.

JOB DONE!


I would agree use HORSE ante bring in etc etc structure..hopefully will get to this.

From what I recall the tournament will take up most, if not all, of the Poker Room....I have no doubt that cash will spring up but once a few tables get cleared.

I"m sure I will be corrected from those who are more regular visitors.

That"s just the way it is...from what I hear.

Very deffo no trianers and no exceptions.  Well, apart from that one big crowd who were there lately.  But the G made a point of announcing (every few minutes) that their rules would go back to normal once the event was over.  It"s over = no trainers. 

Cash games will be a tight squeeze at the start from what I remember too.  Not sure where they"d put an extra table for it, but Tighty might know of a secret hiding spot he can post about later.

The Freeroll is for all playes that made Day 2 of the WCOAP Main Event at DTD last weekend.  It"s password protected, and any members found playing the event that shouldn"t be will forced to listen to Tighty"s YouTube music selections for a full 24hrs.

We had dialogue with Betfair last week, who assured us that the satellites and buyin would be up in the lobby for Monday.

I can"t chase them again until Monday morning, but they will be there in time for Monday 8pm.

Not sure why you would be debating between the league game and the satellites for a live event, as they are totally different things.

We are expecting Luton to be a very popular venue and event, so there may be a higher than normal number of runners in the satellites.

Although the satellites are a cheap route to an event seat, we normally find that players are more interested in using them to ensure they have a seat prior to the direct buyin on Thursday.

Can you confirm will it just be the winner of this Sat that guarantees a seat or is it along the lines of 1 seat per 6 entrants?
