Title: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: tikay on October 07, 2005, 07:44:53 PM

I just remembered - tonight is the LAST chance to qualify for the Grosvenor Grand Prix, online with Blue Square.com.

With my Main PC "down", I cant load the site on my Lappie, but you oughta take a look & see if you can get qualified. At dinnertime (when my PC WAS working) they had 9 entries.

Anyone here Multi-Task blonde Tourney & Blue Square?

Getqualified, you'll regret it if you don't - we ALL gonna be at Walsall next weekend!

Ian "at-it" Bradley just walked in, i'm off for the free lunch laid on by the owners but i'll try to get some pics uploaded so you can all enjoy the splendour of this virtual cardroom, truly awesome, then i'll get some chipcounts for you all, then some more from the buffet, then a bit of gossip, and the odd tall tale before meandering back onto topic ;D ;D ;D

I doubt if it's Dave C, he was playing in a Limit Stud Game in Baden this evening, & even HE can't get knocked out of a Limit Stud Comp that quick, surely? Ariston, maybe......

i am in it aswell

what r all u doing in it i thought it would be a walk in the park.

tikay is an idea for u if its your broadband playing up and not your pc why not use your dial up connection on your pc

all the best

Incredibly, that thought never occurred to me. Too late for the tourney now, but do i simply plug it in?  No buttons to press, no settings to change?


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: 4dam on October 07, 2005, 09:40:17 PM
i think you have to have a dial up account but they do pay as you go (1p per min ithink with freeserve sometimes pre installed on pc)

hope this helps


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: tikay on October 07, 2005, 10:02:20 PM

thanks 4Dam. I trired it, but no joy. Dunno what a dial-up account is.

Frustratingly, I plugged the Broadband back in, & it connected.....for about 30 seconds!

There is a possibility that i might venture to the Grosvenor Cardiff on Thursday for one of the last Qualifiers.
However £110 to buy in is quite a lot of money to me. Is it realistically possible to qualify for the finals by playing it as a freezeout?
The question im basically asking is, are most of the other players going to be playing it as a rebuy? 
What have fellow blondites found in previous qualifiers?
Am i also correct in stating that you do not get any money back until the finals at the weekend?
Does anyone know how far down the money will pay over the weekend?


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: RED-DOG on October 11, 2005, 05:59:13 PM
Most will play it as a re buy and you will be at a disadvantage if you play it as a freeze out, having said that it is a realistic possibility to qualify, remember, you don't have to win

There is talk of paying all players who return for the second day (unconfirmed)


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: Karabiner on October 11, 2005, 06:02:22 PM
In my qualifier last week at Walsall there were 50 runners.

The prize pool gathered was £!0,600, so roughly one rebuy was average.

Prize money at Walsall for the finals: I would estimate either last two or three tables.

Good luck !


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: ariston on October 11, 2005, 06:02:40 PM
every player will be payed for qualifying red. In previous years the first 100 or so out get £100 or so to cover their buyin in effect (as long as they didnt have multiple rebuys).


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: RED-DOG on October 11, 2005, 06:23:35 PM
Thanks Russ, didn't know that


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: Junior Senior on October 11, 2005, 07:51:26 PM
EVERYBODY who qualifies for the finals on 15th & 16th gets their £100 back. - its a prize for qualifying. - so in effect you are in the event for nothing (unless you had several shots at qualifying or re-bought a lot).

I played 2 qualifiers and both times played them as freezeouts. - but now it is getting close to the finals (i.e. last few qualifiers to go) i expect people will become more desperate and will be playing the as re-buy comps.

Hope that helps

Decided to give it a go tonight at the Cardiff qualifier

Will let you know the outcome later (hopefully much later).


Title: Re: Grosvenor Grand Prix Blue Square.com Qualifier
Post by: Newportlad on October 14, 2005, 01:59:55 AM
Just got back from Grosvenor Cardiff.

30 runners gave 5 seats.
Im playing it as a freezeout, and am quite worried at the start by how loose the play is.
Fortunately i hit absolutely everything when i play a hand.
I think i must have played about 10 hands and won 8 of them.
As a result of this i have 17500 at the end of the rebuy period.
I cant remember how many rebuys there were in total, but think it was in the region of 42.

Anyway, play tightens up after the rebuy, as do my cards.  I peak at 24500, but then lose about 8K with AJ vs KQ.
Im unable to find any cards but make the final table with 12K. Blinds are now at about 1K/ 2K.
Down to 6.5K i find  qh jh and move all in. Get called by  9c 9s

Flop 9h 6s 3h giving me a possible flush but i miss.

Out in 7th place....

GUTTED!

Ah well, maybe next year..
