£250,000 GTD £60 GRAND PRIX 22ND - 29TH SEPT 2013

I know this sounds tight but i won a satalitte the other night, but the prize is 300euros it says in the lobby, but £225 doesnt equate to 300 euros, what happens to the excess?


It’s due to when the exchange rate is set and we have to add a percentage on to cover for fluctuating exchange rates. We don't actually get the funds for tournaments running now until 18th of next month and therefore the exchange rate will have changed again. We usually lose roughly €2,000 a month due to exchange rates and therefore have been forced to add a bit per seat.

For these satellites there has been an overlay each night (between €2000 - €3000 every night) therefore the € cost of the seats are offset against the overlay. As the 20 seats are guaranteed all winners win their £225 seat so we havent gained from the excess of the exchange rate it has just created a bigger overlay Sad

Cheers Nicola

You got to love poker players. Get a big overlay in these sat's and they want the maybe £15 difference in exchange rate too Smiley

Brilliant comp. Ideal structure imo. 30 minute blinds, 30k starting stack, blinds start at 50/100. Think you've got it down to a tee now. The 40 minute clock on day two is great, could be even longer imo, 50 minutes even. Nit picking of course, it gets a 5 stars from me Smiley

The breaks are pretty damn long actually, I know it's to get everyone grinding the roulette in the break, but 20 minutes is a bit much for us non-degens.

Really looking forward to the £500 next month Smiley

181 played 1a, 37 through

Play begins at 5pm, registration until 7pm

A freezeout

Set to beat the guarantee with over 500 runners, an excellent achievement given Stoke nearby

Updated on the board later, see you across there.

Just a quick note to say thank you to everyone that supported this event, especially after the Grand Prix last week. there is no doubt that it is tough times for DTD at the moment with the increased competition locally and accross the UK' so to get 510  unique players was great. I am well aware that it would be impossible to hit this number if certain players did not go out of there way to support us, special thanks to them.........we keep the DTD journey going for u guys Smiley

The cash games yesterday were absolutely buzzing, SIX 1/2 games at one point, and I'm sure as many 50/1s too. Really great to see and I think it may be to do with the lack of re-entries. Everyone with slightly heavier pockets, not in the tournament for so long etc, it's had a massively positive effect on the cash games this weekend which is a brilliant side effect (/ perhaps this was part of the plan!) to the new system. Great stuff DTD, cash games have been so baron for so long, would be awesome to see this continue Smiley
