Your 2 good m8 let's hope we win tngt should be a cracker like Sunday top game

Now then Raf. How many runners expected for the sat tonight and how long is late reg for. Can't get a pass out till the kids are settled.

Cheers Jason Herbert

 5cJason, the satellite is tomorrow night (Thursday). I'd expect between 20-30 runners and you'll be able to buy in till 11pm.

Ffs

On their site it defo says 25th mate.

There's definitely a main event satellite tonight Jason, starts at 8.30pm (£150 freezeout).  Should generate 12/13 seats at a guess.

Michelle

Cheers matey. Think someone's a bit worried that by me turning up that it's one seat gone. Either that or he is anti railing this as marketing manager for a rival firm. Raf White sir you are no gent :)

I actually think Raf was talking about the satellite at Salford tomorrow night for a main event seat into the Genting Poker Series main at Star City!

Lol that will explain it then. I saw that genting Liverpool had 2 seats gtd the other night for a £43 entry and only got 12 runners. Looked like Colin was panicking a bit on facebook :/

Sorry Jason, crossed wires, was doing work on the GPS and satellites and then saw your post.

GukPT £150(+£15) Super Satellite to Main Event, tonight, 8.30pm, 7500 chips, 3 x 30 min levels and then 20 min levels. You can buy in for the first 3 levels, so that'll be till 10 o'clock.

Good luck

Ty. Looking forward to seeing some old friends

Anyone know the results for the 300 pounds side event? and also the other side events...

Thanks!

Cheers for the info.  It was nathan jackson I was interested in.  He went out 12th, AK not good enough for QQ.....

these are sent out at the end of the week. I will post them up on Monday morning

oooohhhhhhhhhhh

live poker, actually tempted to chance a satty!

They did a deal 4 handed and played on for champion of champions seat

boooooooooom. grats

Aces No Good for Trigg

Marc Wright opens to 250, Rick Trigg makes a raise to 650. Action then comes to Michell Bennett who makes it 1900 to play. Marc gets out of the way. Rick thinks before again raising to 3650, Michelle moves all in and Rick makes the call.

The pre flop nuts for Rick as he turns over pocket Aces, Michelle tables pocket Kings and is drawing to two outs which both come on the flop as it comes K-K-4!! QUADS for Michelle!! No miracle miracle for Trigg as he heads home. Michell Bennett stacking chips as she is up to close to 40,000.

sigh run better Trigg!

Great news. VWP fella.

glglglglg to lewis hunter and aamir masood

It's all about Sammy G - glgl to the squid, he so deserves a live bink

Hope you're ok buddy

One time for Was Shahid and can only assume Kongy never got AA or KK all day and 17,375 is what you are left with if you don't play a hand.

Edit: he just told me he got AA x 3 and KK once picking up the blinds and antes with the AA 's and had to fold to a 3 bet with KK :)

sammy g, perry perrins and big karly mahrenlyellehneholz to final!

Oi oi Grafton, no idea who the others are so looks a penalty kick son!

Kev Steele won Sunday Mill twice I think, Lewis best player left I think but Grafton got sick stack. gllglglg

I read blog where he slammed the table and shouted yes when he doubled? I mean no one any good I know would do that

It's all about Sammy G.......so, so, so hope the squid takes this one down - will be one for the good guys

rofl really? link so i can troll pls.

we were giving him sidebets in the skype channel to do com things. he got a villains cap on for $50, standing up shouting holdddddddddd randomly etc.

Boom! Sick sweat! I'm loving it! Thanks for rail.

Sounds annoying.


GL Sam. "If on your journey, you should encounter God, God will be bluffed."

gl dude

just read this hand.

:D

gl to both tomorrow :)

Kev Steele seemed like a nice bloke when i played with him breifly.

Incred the first time he played the sunday million he won it, then before he'd played it twenty times he'd won it again! waddddddalife :D

i love karl he;s a top man, but sammy G aint had his live bink yet. He's such a BO$$ seiously. the nicest person ive ever met,

gl Kev Steele

Gl Sam

oioiiii, glgl Grafton

I can't remember his login, but pretty sure he was still playing sats for it after winning it twice.  Why would you ever still do that?  Bankroll management FTW

And playing local donkaments. Friends with the mouth and she does not suffer fools.

Sam is class act and hope he wins please

is there a live stream guys?

http://www.grosvenorukpokertour.com/en/Events/Live-webcast/

finish it up Sammy boy!

Allan Doyle is one of the locals, tricky player, be interesting to see how he gets on!

he said he was playing this comp cos he qualified. He isn't a pro poker player and has put the money into his life/family which is infuriatingly sensible of him - DO SOME OF IT BACK KEV Cmonnnnnnnnn!!!!

he was a nice guy but we all want sammy g tbh :D

OIOI Lewis, now closeeeee

Blog link or is it just a live stream?

http://www.grosvenorukpokertour.com/en/Events/LiveEventBlog/

not tighty quality.

ahhhhhhhh alan doyle
the one who discribes min raises as "ERRR gay raise"

Had 2 laugh at Alan dolyes nickname chuckles of chuckle tv  . Ul sam ak v pair of 10s wins that and I'm sure he would have won it

def wins if he wins that flip. Lolvariance

Only 171 runners this year 207 last year going 2 struggle to get numbers I'n main event .

congrats lewis and ul to sam grafton who deserved more after crushung all weekend. Kev steele obv sicko too.

Sigh at finishing 5th. I'll get em one day...

Hopefully.

Walsall, vic and Blackpool should still do fine but the £500 events and sides have been a bit tez.
This weekend is gonna be interesting as genting go head to head with Dtd

Yes very interesting where you playing Jason what numbers at star city I will go spread 320/340

I am at Dtd but toyed with the idea of going to star city Thursday  but decided against it. Pretty much for the same reason as I always play 1 b even if there is a re entry option. That fallback of "oh well I can re enter if I mess up" ( or go to another event tomorrow ) always seems to go bad for me.

The customer loyalty, the extra £50k that Dtd are putting up and the softer field makes it an easy choice for me.

As for star city numbers I think 250 will be pretty good as I know they are trying hard and put a lot of effort into their tour.

Competition for punters in the £500 to £1k events is massive ATM and its really hard to choose between gukpt, ukipt, genting and Dtd. Less people are traveling these days and I noticed on Manchester this last week that a massive % of the field were locals.

Going star city . Very true tough choice both comps should be well attended think edingburgh might struggle I'n gps just the expenses makes it costly . Good luck at dtd

You too. Caroline is working it (oh I like the sound of Caroline working it) so lets get a blonde winner with some blog coverage

171 was a slight disappointment for the main event but overall there were a few more entries in the events that made up the 2012 leg compared to 2011.

Big ups were the super satellite on Sunday and the £300 on Tuesday (This was a £500 last year with 67 runner compared to 113 this year.)

The Bounty event was down by 46 players from 140 to 94 - the only extra event was a £100 on Saturday night which had 46 players :)

Saturday's £500 was only down 17 players versus the £250 event which was at the same time last year.

Monday's £100 was down 5 players and Thursday six max up 5.

There are 4 more weeks of online qualifiers for Walsall than there was for Manchester which means there should be at least 16 more players in by that route in March. Walsall was leg 3 last year and had 172 players. I predict 207 this year :)

The new structure and starting stack seemed well received by players who attended.

I was expecting having DTD and Genting next week to make more of an impact on the numbers truth be told, especially as this event is right at the end of most working peoples pay month directly after Christmas and New year.

Was talking with cardroom manager at Bolton and all us regular players at Bolton and Mcr have asked why is the 500 buy I'n a 6 max when other events are 50k starting stack and normal . Lee has asked it 2 be changed and they said no . Will be lucky if you get 20 and that's from the cardroom manager . Any chance you can talk 2 lee at Bolton cheers

Not all the other 500 events are Deepstack's. There are four £500 events - two Deepstacks and two 6 Max. There are going to around 40 seats guaranteed in live an online satellites so the 20 estimate is a little way off :)

These events were added to give a little bit of a mix to the tour and are replacing the summer series of events that have taken place over the last few years. Last year there were 42 in the Bolton summer series event. I have no doubt that we will smash that at the 6 Max.

We know the Deepstack will be more popular than the 6 Max overall and there is nothing to say that Bolton won't get a Deepstack next year.

The English Deepstack is going to be in Coventry this year which is not that far for people to travel to from your area.

GUKPT also clashed Manchester with the SPT Luton.  Maybe not intentional and also there aren't many free spaces in the calender.

Now due to the difference in BIs, they obviously thought they wouldn't lose than many players however there were between 15-20 who would have played Manchester had they not clashed.

Just becuase the SPT is a smaller BI tour aimed at the more recreational/casual player, doesn't mean there aren't a significant number of higher rolled/sponsored players who will always choose the SPT over any other tour due to loyalty and meeting up with friends etc.

I would be really interested to hear from a GUKPT representative about sattelite payouts. On Thursday there were 4 seats and £745 for 5th. We were advised that 5th would be paid in "GUKPT tokens" and not cash!

With a choice of poker series at the moment this is a really strong way to kill your sattelites and therefore number of runners at your first and following events.

Played eds last year at broadway very good comp and was saying the 6 max might struggle at Bolton .

that seems bad.
