1st entry, and it's one re-entry, easy way is hope one of us make day 2, and if not it's a push or level
02-11-2013 , 10:40 AM
Do a reasonable % of people reach day 2? I think the best way to do it would be just use level, and if two people bust same level it's a chop between them, just to avoid controversy over exact times.
02-11-2013 , 12:38 PM
yeh, i think that's fair, i'm hoping we have some that reach day 2.

at st andrews we have a last longer with a twist, you pick someone ELSEs name out of the hat, always great fun with a few left because your railing one and anti-railing the others!

also this is what i have proposed as satties to the GUKPT (please comment either if your playing this or not!) but they should be soft and good value so probs going to play anyway #value :P

Tuesdays , £2 rebuy to £35 main event (2 seats guaranteed)
Thursdays, £5 freezeout to £35 main event (2 seats guaranteed)

We booked Novotel which was surprisingly cheap, it also isn't very far from where we're supposed to be for the tournament.

Based in Meribel but will be traveling, done Argentiere (town up from Cham) last couple years around this time but going back to Meribel this time to see mates etc. Thinking might spend a couple days in Courmayeur or Cervinia but we'll just see what the snow does.

cool, good luck with the novotel :P, got an exciting call from bluff the other day wanting to do an article about the UKSPC so that's exciting.

Also GUKPT have some added extras planned, but they haven't decided what yet! Either way the £2000 grand final seat is worth about £5 per player of added value, not bad for £35. High Roller should be fun too.

The registration should be open shortly, and most people have already booked travel + hotel.

Nice work, will deposit and buy in later. Top work organising all this muppet.
02-18-2013 , 07:25 PM
satties should be up later this week and have 2 or 3 per week for main and at least one for the high roller

Day 1B starts at 12.30, will find the blinds structure with the times and post them here. should play 10 or 11 45 min levels up until around midnight, we will have late-reg and re-entries open until the early evening, with the structure we got you will be able to reg or re-enter after dinner and still have 30+ bbs.

thanks PlasticE looking forward to seeing you guys there and enjoying a few beers! i just spread the word and put the wheels in motion but being part of the GUKPT is going to help a lot, and all the added value is pretty sick too

5 weeks to go and everything coming together nicely!
