Title: 24/7 cash game at DTD during the Ukipt
Post by: skalie on April 23, 2014, 11:02:35 PM
During the forthcoming Ukipt at DTD in a week or so the club will be open 24hrs. I am going to try and organise a non stop game while its open.

It will be no limit Holden with blinds 1/2 compulsory 4 straddle

The card room are putting the finishing touches to a cash game promotion, hopefully to launch 1st May. We recently revised our rake and limits, details here, http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/cashgames.php, this has significantly reduced our overall cash game revenues so we now need work hard to get more cash game volume to balance these changes out.

In my opinion it should be open to everyone and a fair way found for the game to rotate.

Last time this happened the line up was pretty much all regs, most of whom avoided each other or played overly tight and when the vote happened it was a glorified popularity contest.

I think you should get some randoms in, people who actually want to play against each other rather than it just being the usual boring line up.

Just my 2 penneths worth.

Think it would be fun to have a Tips for Tikay (sports betting thread on blonde) cash game during this week with players having to have posted on the thread.  Pretty much everyone on there is a proper punter and wouldn't care less about ducking each other.  I know me and Redarmi are going to be there from Friday onwards and i am sure numerous others will be.

smallish stakes so everyone can get involved comfortably and plenty of beers could be a good laugh

Sounds ideal, would be great if it was going to be streamed as well like before. Just realised that streaming was not mentioned so my previous post a little less relevant but I would def want to watch the TFT game.

I think there might be a misunderstanding here

skalie has been running a 1-2-4 NL since the new year, and has been a big success

the plans to run it over 24 hours over the UKIPT week aren't a replica of the Party Poker big game that ran at dtd, with streaming, votes on/off etc

as far as i understand its on a normal cash table on the back tier.

the challenge being to get a long enough list of people for the "quiet hours"



the Tft game would be seperate, but if there is enough interest i am sure very easy to set up at a suitable time

Sure i wasn't intending on hijacking this thread surprised it has got as much response for the TFT potential game as it has.  Just seemed a logical place to put the suggestion.

Agree.

i was just pointing out that talking streaming, votes on/off etc etc aren't on the menu, afaik

Unfortunately the cash game can't run 24/7 the club will only be open 24hrs from the Tuesday. However we can go for 24/6
It will start 6pm Tuesday 6th.
Same time as the high Roller for those not lucky enough to be playing it.

After feedback from players etc it will be

No limit holdem
Blinds 1/2 compulsory 4 straddle.

I thought about caps
And decided a cap it required. Bigger games will be available. This is about having a long running game almost anyone can play. A player can bring back anything he has left the  table with in a previous session (if it's above the cap) but it will not be compulsory.

Caps are
Tues and weds min £300 max £1500
Thurs £400 max £2000
Friday £500 max £2500
Saturday £600 max £3000
Sunday £800 max £4000
Monday £1000 max £5000

Straddle allowed to 8
Further straddles allowed in order if everyone agrees
(If anyone is against  addition straddles then they stop . People abusing these players will be asked to find another game)

I want the game dealt by regular DTD dealers who deal my game whenever possible.
These will all be very professional and experienced. If on the rare occasion they make a mistake it is not ok to give them any abuse. Anyone who does will be asked to find another game.
Same goes for bad beats!!!!

IT IS NOT OK TO ABUSE DEALERS FOR ANY REASON.

Mitch on the other hand feel free.

Intrigued to know how all the money got in (presumably pre), unless straddles were super high? After the 7-bet, three-way, I'm probably laying the Jacks down ☺️
