Hi guys

Massive thanks to anyone who chooses to play Online Day 1a Wed or Thu Live Day 1b to help us out with Friday - we are expecting Friday to be huge. I thought 700 would be achievable just after Xmas and new year - but Rob set the target at 1000 before he went on his tour so I probably expect 1001.

Cheers ACES

Hi 10 seats GTD tonight at 8pm.

These are reduced on busy LIVE nights Friday and Saturday to 2 seats GTD. But they made more.

Hope this helps.

Hi Guys

The online Day 1 on Wednesday is looking popular - usually players are put off as not as many runners as live but this online day 1 will definitely be worth a shot for the travelling (and even local) players!

I expect 100-120 runners as we have ALOT of £440 GPS tokens in the system, many Live Genting satellite & bounty winners have chosen to play the online Day 1 and we already have 14 pre-registered with 1 day to go :)

We have a Wednesday 6pm £20 Rebuy LAST CHANCER for the Online Day 1 tomorrow with 10 x £440 GPS tokens GTD - you can use these tokens for the online Day 1 or Live Day 1's. Satellite will finish in time for the online Day 1 so perfect for flicking straight in :)

The online Day 1 has a 24 min clock, plays 10 levels with a 10 min break after level 10 for us to take chip counts and players then carry these chips through to Day 2 :)

Any questions please ask.

Thanks Nicola

There are over 100 in 1a Online with Late Reg open

Rob has put the following message out

"GPS IMPORTANT;

Dear poker friends if you/anyone are planning to play GP Series live at DTD on Friday Day 1c;

If you "can" play Thursday Day 1b (without inconveniencing yourself of course) that would be GREAT/MASSIVE FAVOUR and go towards helping us have smooth spacious day at the Club on Friday Day 1c .

Thursday will be wonderfully peaceful, tranquil and relaxing where as Friday will be manic - if you like manic them fair enuf!

We can seat 500 each day and our staff and dealers are prepared for a long shift.

Good luck to everyone who plays the Online Day 1a tonight from the comfort of their armchair Let's hope we have an amazing event with all the hard work put in by everyone - especially the Genting Card Room staff around all the different venues who have ensured we will be getting a field from all corners of the UK

 Cheers Rob"

I was 1 of the un/lucky 13 @ starcity last night

worryingly when I phoned dtd to request/confirm day change they said they not been forwarded any names yet from the satt venues

I chased this up at star city and they said the names have been forwarded to the relevant ppl.

so on a wing and prayer I booked my hotel for Thursday and im ah coming down.

runners/entries - 767


Title: Schedule change GPS Side Event £150 Deepstack
Post by: DTD-ACES on January 09, 2014, 03:06:24 AM
In the interests of players' comfort and experience there will only be one Day 1 for the £150 Deepstack GPS Side event i.e. There will NOT be a Day 1a on Friday at 8pm as originally scheduled due to higher than expected numbers for Friday Day 1c of the GPS Main Event.

The GPS Side Event £150 Deepstack Day 1 has a new start time 5pm Saturday but guarantee remains at £50,000

The £100 Turbo will not take place as it has been replaced with the time change to 5pm for the £150 Deepstack.  will publish an amended schedule tomorrow.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your support. 

Cheers
