blonde poker forum

It's closer to me than DTD and doesnt have a 50mph average speed zone getting there (first world problems etc)

it has a ridiculous starting stack of 200,000 chips, but there is no info i can see on the actual blind structure of the tournament

does anyone have any info on this or been to it before?

i'm mentally tossing a coin between the drive to DTD for the xxl15, and the convenience of sheffield

any help appreciated

Mick

Not played this, the reason I've started playing at Sheff more is cause of them effin roadworks!!!!!  Adds like 30mins on to the drive.

Looks like it might be a laugh if nothing else.  The game will probably start at 1k/2k or something but has to be a bit of entertainment for £30.

PM Raf White on here, he'll have the blind details if no one else has played it yet

yup, was a pain when i worked down that way for a year and they did the first 4 lane section, and now, with having to set off at 5 to get through rush hour for a 7 start at DTD, it's def making me lean towards sheffield tonight before i head back to sea on friday morning

do you have Raf's forum name tighty?????

Raf White

i'm never a clever as i think i am

i searched once and didnt find him, but the second time, he appeared, maybe finger trouble

cheers all, sent Raf a message asking for info, weather or not i get anything.........time will tell

Mick

Yeah I've played it same blind structure as the super high rollers on epts I think just with a shorter clock.

It's almost like you were there on Friday Eso.

WP sir, WP!!  ;kneelsucker;

I cannot tell you cause I don't know! These guys will tell you everything including every bad beat yhey have ever had ;)

i do NOT need to hear more bad beats

tournament structure yes

bad beats no

Ha best plan then is to make a post ask the question then get your response and unfollow the thread ;)

Trolls like Aaron will appear and spam your Facebook all day

I think blinds start at 400/800. Never played it myself but I think genting casino adds an iPad Mini for the winner also.

Decided on sheffield this time.

will be back to dtd for one of the bigger comps when work allows

just for info, i felt it was a decent structure taking into account the huge chip stack

as far as i can recall it went:

500-1000-100
600-1200-100
800-1600-200
1000-2000-200
1200-2400-200
1500-3000-300
2000-4000-500
3000-6000-1000

after that, i'm not sure

were 110 or so entries, it was ran as a single re-entry option so not sure how many took that option

my only slight issue with it was i was sat near someone with hygiene issues, and that 8 o'clock start drifted by almost half an hour

appart from those two little things, was a fun tournament, will def play it again, but also going to return to DTD on my next rotation too

Mick

Yeah those blinds look about right, with A 20 min clock. A while since I've played it but it's not a bad comp as far as midweek comps go.  Rarely cash tables going before 11 when I've been there though, I'd go more reg if there was as it is a nice place.

cash games been booming recently,

was a 1/2 game running early last night and by 12 there was 2 1/2 tables and a 2/2 PLO

Good to know, will stick my head back in after ukipt week then 😊

it does seem a lot of chips but it gets a few runners and normally best part £!k for first. i like it because you get a few chances to do ur stack in rather than one missed flop after raising and cbetting leaving 50% ur stack gone.

the cash games are starting 8-9pm now as there is a cash game race to win a brand new car.

i think top 30 playoff for it or something like that
