The most over worried about thing in poker tournaments is choosing which day to play.

Matters very little.

Just play whichever day there isn't something you want to watch on tv.

As someone who made my ukipt debut at Newcastle.. Enjoy the people, they're awesome! The cash games downstairs are crazy and the ukipt is a great tournament. Don't rush!

Like they all said, play whatever day you wake up sober-ish on. :D

Best of luck.

Dont mention sunderland EVER and dont call it Newcy Brown, you'll get a slap. Oh and the women can be just as intimidating as the blokes. Awesome city though, love it!

Hmmmm and you didn't die! You were lucky. I am surprised you weren't asked to pick a window. Score they launched you through it

Hi Thisnthat or anyone else in the know.

Do you mind if I ask how you reg for your day of preference? I won a sat and I am on the list of qualifiers but haven't heard anything from UKIPT or Stars on how to choose a day.

Don't want to leave it too late and be told which day I have to play, or worse still find that I am regged for neither!

cheers monda. Have emailed stars and they have said I will hear but it's been a week now and though ht I would have heard by now. I'm  a bit of a lurker on here, not a great poster but read a few of the diaries, including yours. Blow me down if I didn't find myself sitting next to you in one of your gazillions of comps last night. As someone who struggles with 4 tables, I am mightily impressed by you guys that mt 12 or more. Hope ur running well.

I made my UKIPT debut at Nottingham and came 39th so be confident a nice bink is possible.

I played super tight early on, good structure allows this and was very observant, like any tourney identify the weaker player to get chips from.  Lots of 3 and 4 bets pre flop and make sure your bet sizing is good as weakness is punished.

Above all, good luck and be confident in your ability
