Title: Quick Question
Post by: Triple X on August 19, 2005, 02:40:56 PM
Want to play in London tomorrow (saturday) night. What do people think is the best tourney to play for value for money, competition and structure out of...

£30 Rebuy at the Vic

£20 Rebuy at Luton

£100 Freezeout at the Gutshot

Many Thanks

If you could afford it, I'd go for the freezeout always


Almost always I will stick up for Luton, but in my opinion the Saturday night competition is one of the worst ones they offer. It starts at 9pm (later than usual) because of a £10 rookie rebuy fest at 4.30pm and ends much earlier than most comps because the casino shuts early on Saturday night/Sunday morning. Therefore a couple of blind levels are missed out and it's a crapshoot from two tables out

My issue with the Vic is quick clocks in general.

Just my opinion!

The gutshot £100.

Wouldnt even consider the Vic £30, "we need a new cash table" "ok then quadruple the blinds in the tournament"

As any casino on the saturday has such a time restriciton the gutshot is the best choice imo

When I went to Luton the other week (after cheeseypoker's play off) i thought it closed early. It does...at 4am! ;D
