Official UKIPT4 and EPT101 London Thread - October 7 - 18, 2014 - Page 5 - WSOP and Tournament Circut

Still difficult to load my account with +5k euros before next week, we have a (low) limit on deposit on pokerstars account per day/week here in Belgium & a limit on the transfers between accounts. Think I have to take the bad beat of the exchange rate, was just wondering how much that would be. Still wondering what the reason behind not accepting credit card like visa would be'...

Hi all,

Does anyone know how many levels will be played on Day 1 of the UKIPT Main Event? And, roughly what time will it finish?

Thanks!

Could you outline what the procedure is in London if I reg for an event through the PS client?

Hi,

Players who reg online must unregister before the start of play. Players who do not unregister will not receve a refund.

Thanks

So what exactly happens if we don't unregister before it starts? Our stack is just put into play at some point and blinded down?
Also what is the latest we can unregister from a tournament using the client? As I think last season it was something like 2 hours before.
- Wow just seen that unregistration closes 1440 minutes before the start for some of them. That's harsh. Won't work then if I wanted to play 2 side events in one day then :/. So just to confirm that that 24 hours will be enforced for every event?

Being London, I doubt there will be super duper fields, like in Barcelona. So just don't reg till you know for sure you will play and then do the Hypodrome reg, should be easy game (was last year as far as other regs told me)

Hi,

We will most likely be doing some casual drinks on the night before Day 1A of EPT which will take place in the bar of the Grand Connaught room.

No official party though

Thanks

If you do not unregister before the event starts your stack will go into play once we close registration.

And also, I take the above to mean that there won't be a Stars/EPT party at DSTRKT this time then?
Cheers.

For the 10-Game structure, 2-7 single draw should have an ante of half the small blind from level 1 to finish, it doesn't appear to be included from the start.

Also, you'll have to confirm whether limping is allowed (Stars rules) or not (archaic, nonsensical WSOP rules put in place to stop the deck having to be reshuffled).

Hi can you clarify the re-entry rules for the following 3 tournaments:

UKIPT £2k HR - Single RE or 1 RE per flight?

EPT main - I understand this is a FO, can you please provide entrant #s from each flight from '13?

EPT £10k HR - Just 1 single RE correct? And you can enter any time until start of day2?

Thx
