Title: EPT London thread Post by: TightEnd on September 28, 2011, 01:36:50 PM The PokerStars European Poker Tour London kicks off at the Hilton London Metropole on Edgware Road in London tomorrow, Sept. 29, and will run until Oct. 6.
London will be Season 8’s third destination but its first full-on poker festival thus far. Sept. 30 sees the first of two starting days for the highlight of the festival, the £5,250 buy-in main event. Players will sit down to 30,000 in chips and levels will be 60 minutes for day 1, and 75 minutes thereafter. Oct. 6 will see reigning champion David Vamplew hand over his crown, that’s unless he can pull off one of poker’s finest double title takedowns. Last season, Vamplew beat John Juanda heads up to top a record field of 848 and take the first-place prize of £900,000 back home to Scotland. If that wasn’t enough, one day after his victory, Vamplew completed a remarkable double by taking down the UK & Ireland Poker Tour Champion of Champions event. The UKIPT Grand Final will be held once again in London during this season’s festival. Aside from the main event there is a whole host of side events including the £2,150 8-Game European Championship, a £5,250 Heads-Up event, the £550 Women’s event, and the £20,500 High Roller event, which was won last season by Jose Barbero when he bested a field of 77 players, receiving £556,000 for the top spot.

Pm if ur selling Title: Re: EPT London thread Post by: claypole on September 30, 2011, 01:08:24 AM Just bubbled the £1k....to a supposed one outer on the river, fml lol Ul! You Playing the main? Pm if ur selling Too tilted tot think about it at the moment lol - I am really not sure, going to head in tommorrow and see how I feel when I get there, probably play the pm sat - or I might just tilt reg - or worst case bus the sat and reg for Saturday. If I end up playing Saturday I'll whack a thread up tommorow and will be happy to sell 25% at 1.0 just to reduce some variance although if I play I'll play regardless. Thing stopping me regging is tbh if I'm going to have a shot probably much better value to so so in San Remo or Greece Title: Re: EPT London thread Post by: PLOGrinder on September 30, 2011, 01:17:16 PM Stars playing silly buggers re deposits so looking to buy in cash on day 1b. Anyone anticipate any probs with getting in if I get there at around 11ish? I doubt it, last year I bought in on my debit card at the Metropole at noon, didn't miss a hand; they sold out at around 3 p.m. I'm planning on doing the same thing tomorrow. Can't imagine the numbers will be up on the 800+ of last year.

By Andrew Feldman EPT London is typically the crown jewel of the fall poker schedule. The European Poker Tour event has outshined the World Series of Poker Europe in each of the past few years with 730 entries in 2009 and 848 entries in 2010, compared to 334 and 346 players at WSOPE, respectively. This year, it would be incredibly surprising if the WSOP Europe main event outperformed EPT London, but with 691 players in this year's main event, the gap will most definitely be reduced. Any major tournament venue would be happy to see a 691-player turnout, but when expectations are so high for this specific event, the drop in participation definitely will concern tournament organizers. Of course, there are many reasons (or excuses) why the numbers are lower in 2011. First: scheduling. EPT London typically occurred after WSOP Europe and many of the players who traveled overseas for the WSOPE stayed to play in the other event. Up until this year, WSOP Europe was also held in London, which meant that there was no additional travel needed to move to the second tournament. It just made sense that players would go from one to the other and in the past EPT London stood to benefit. Now, WSOP Europe is in Cannes, France and if players want to play in both, a second part of the trip will need to be planned. Second: the Black Friday effect. The number of "PokerStars players" -- meaning satellite winners and other sponsored entries -- has been reduced all season on the EPT, potentially due to the lack of participation from the United States. Lots of 18-20-year-old Americans played in these satellites, as it was their way to get into a major tournament before they were in 21. More satellite players meant more seats awarded and if we look at a very small post-Black Friday sample size, EPT San Remo had 25 percent fewer "PokerStars players" in 2011 compared to 2010, EPT Tallinn had 211 in 2010 and 120 this year, and EPT Barcelona also dropped slightly from 272 to 263. The final numbers for EPT London have not yet been released. Continuing to get new players into the mix is one of the toughest current challenges in the poker world, and the reduction of the online player base has definitely played a role in hindering that growth. Finally: the buy-in. It may be a stretch, but it's a trend in the industry that medium-stakes buy-in events are the way to go. Lower buy-ins across the world are attracting more players of all skill levels and with two smaller buy-in events scheduled around the same time as the 5,000 pound buy-in EPT London, some players may have opted to stay closer to home. The Heartland Poker Tour, a $1,650 buy-in, set a record with its latest stop, as did the $3,500 WPT Borgata. Add in a WSOP Circuit stop in Indiana, the Festa Al Lago series in Las Vegas and the TJ Cloutier Choctaw Poker Challenge in Oklahoma, and there really were many cheaper options for players around the U.S. to play. In Europe, smaller events in Spain, Italy and Ireland may have stolen a few players from the English destination. Regardless of the drop, the tournament is still awarding a massive top prize of 750,000 pounds (or $1.1 million) and offers one of the highest prize pools in the world. After three days of play, only 62 players remain with 2010 Irish Open champion James Mitchell leading the way. Benny Spindler, who had been among the leaders for the first two days of play, is currently in 12th, and Marvin Rettenmaier, fresh off his 16th-place finish at WPT Malta, will begin Day 4 with an above-average stack. Doyle Brunson made the money in his EPT debut, but was eliminated on Day 3 in 77th. Some players who joined him in the money but on the rail on Monday include Sebastian Ruthenberg, Toby Lewis, Bryn Kenney and Jeff Sarwer. All Day 3 survivors have already secured an 11,000 pound payday. In addition to the cash, the winner will also take home a Shamballa Jewels bracelet, which has an estimated retail value of 10,200 euros.

The winner of the event will receive £520,000 and after one day, Sam Stein leads 30 survivors of the 75-strong field into Day 2. Stein managed to build up his stack to 240,000 by the end of the day. He is closely followed by some great poker talents – Isaac Haxton (199.2k) is in third place with Michael Tureniec (197k) and November Niner Phil Collins (187.7k) also in the top five chip counts. Other notable survivors include Luke “__FullFlush1__” Schwartz, WSOPE champion James Bord, WSOP Main Event champion Jonathan Duhamel, Sam Trickett, Joe Hachem, Sorel Mizzi and WPT Grand Prix de Paris winner Matthew Waxman. Eight of the remaining 30 will receive a payout with all of the final tablists guaranteed at least £59,400. The winner will take home £520,000 with five players nabbing six figures.
