Title: 'Deepstack' my arse
Post by: Pyso on September 03, 2008, 02:47:46 PM
Went to Stoke Circus last night for a £20 MTT. This tournament is advertised as their weekly "Deepstack" tournament.
Since when has 6000 chips and 20 minute levels been considered deep?

I played this once before months ago and then you got 8000 chips and longer levels. Whoever changed it should be given a kick up the arse. Calling it 'deepstack' is an insult to places like DTD who run proper deepstack events.

To be fair, it was dealer dealt and the dealers were perfectly competent (unlike the players) but still, I feel entitled to have a moan here.

Call it the "a bit more deepstacked than usual, but not much really" tournament and I wouldn't be upset.

I still haven't got over them calling it the Champions' League, so what do I know.

''Deepstack my arse'' is not a phrase to be throwing around lightly, a brave soul indeed...

Reminds me of the story when I was in the police where a copper was chasing a burglar along a roof and slipped and fell, his wedding ring got caught on the guttering somehow and the call over the radio was that he was hanging by his ring from the roof.  :D

on topic (boo) 6k chips with 20 min is deepstacked for a £20 comp, normally you get 2-3k with the same clock.

ironically, i stopped playing this last year cos it was just too deepstacked.

Yeah common Stoke people paying £20 expect proper structures!

Should be at least 20k starting stacks and 90min clock imo


Title: Re: 'Deepstack' my arse
Post by: action man on September 04, 2008, 01:07:15 PM
when i started playing the best you could get for £20 was 500 chips 25/25 in the rb stage.

The one that really tilts me is self deat games with a dealer button.....

Last time i played one i took the dealer button off the table, guy gets right hump with me "how the fuck are we supposed to know who the dealer is"

"The guy with the cards in his hand you moron"

Whole table laughed thankfully he wasn't a gangster...

I like that.  we should have rubber ducks for buttons at the blonde bash imo


Title: Re: 'Deepstack' my arse
Post by: gatso on September 05, 2008, 11:21:44 PM
no animal rights out here, I'm still in sunny Poland. I think the main reason for it not being a real duck is that it'd have difficulty balancing on the small dealer button for an extended period of time

no, you're not getting it, the duck wasn't the button it was sitting on the button

I understood that - just thought it would be easier to take the button out of the equation to prevent possible balance issues.

Surely this would make more sense then a real duck can be used,now that would be a fun game

not sure how well that would work - some unscrupulous so-and-so would bring a bag of bread to the table to ensure that he gets to keep the button.

wouldn't work. you'd get a situation like last night when the owner of the duck gets knocked out and goes to play cash taking it with him.

in your version there would now be no button at all and chaos would ensue whereas our game continued seamlessly just with no duck

The club would obviously provide the ducks, no one need take it with them

that's not a problem - I'm sure it's in the grosvenor rules somewhere that the duck-button has to stay at the table until the table breaks.

probably not

this next bit doesn't warrant a thread of its own so I'll write it here as I have this one open

I am at the moment sat on a hotel computer watching a very drunk man dressed as an elf trying to open a door with his roomkey. the door isn't locked, I'm not even sure it has a keyhole, it just opens up onto a corridor. he's been trying to open it for about 3 minutes now, I haven't got the heart to tell him to just pull the handle, I've left it for too long

you could either:

a) pretend you haven't seen him and carry on what you're doing or
b) pretend that you, too, have a need to go through that door, and hold it open for him.
