Thanks Nicola

Hi tightly/Nicola.

Can you tell me about the base points eg how much volume to accrue 1 point etc and where they are located in the lobby.

Sorry if this has been answered before.

Club Cash Games have their own tab in the lobby under Dusk Till Dawn

Twister, top left of lobby has its own section. Choose your buy in, number of tables and press Play

One base point = £1 of rake

Twister rakes at c7% so a $10 Twister accrues about 70c a time

Obviously they are quick to play and you can play lots at once

Club cash games, depends on the level you play and how active you are. Higher the level, more the tables, quicker the points, more tokens


You can check your points balance under "My account" top of lobby and once you get a token that will be credited the next day

If you are a cash games member you can see your tokens progress in the members area, and I can get you a password if you need one

Will be the first Grand Prix I won't be able to play ....it's the exact dates I am in Vegas !

Why not have Online Day 1's from Monday to Saturday?

 

So if u make final table can the £1100 ukipt be exchanged am in florida for that game

flexibility yes. for this Grand Prix someone couldn't make the target event and are being offered equivalent value DTD seats instead

So I presume these will be given out in the first sat, when will that run please?

Satellites running now 5pm 7pm 9pm nightly

leaderboard will be published on the GP page to see how people are progressing to 10 chips

ahhhh gotcha, misread it.

Will attempt this promo and see how the leaderboard goes. Am I right in saying 500chips given out this time?

Rob Yong's blog talks the Grand Prix just gone, and the Grand Prix to come, as well as UKIPT, UKPC


 http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/blog.php?profile=4&id=457

Yes 500 Golden Chips only.

Hi Tighty

Has anyone mentioned the payout structure yet?

I completely understand the thinking behind trying to pay the majority of returning players something towards their expenses, but paying 260 put of the 318 that returned diluted the payouts for the players that progressed well on Day 2. I have tried to find the exact figures, but I believe that there was only £75 difference between someone finishing 260 to someone finishing 51st. I personally feel that if you had paid the top 100. it would have made more sense.

I witnessed players entering flight 1 on Friday, re-entering, then playing in flight 2 ( they may even have re-entered that flight. Therefore the spend would have been £240, they would then have had to make the final 3 tables to cover there entry's let alone travelling, hotel, food ( plenty of drink for blonde members)

Your thoughts?

Rob was asked about this yesterday on a long facebook thread

Amongst the comments he made were that

- We paid 260 out of 2600. 50% players have won in for 55p or 5.50, so the min cash is lot to them

In his blog he says that

"the average player had 1.7 attempts, so 1530 unique players took part. It’s important to keep a track on the number of re-entries in relation to the number of flights, because the idea of giving plenty of online and live opportunities is not to boost the prizepool by increasing the average spend per head, but to increase the options for players to get involved. Of course, some Grand Prix fans played as many flights as they could, but in reality, must took a shot with just 1 bullet won through our 55p and £5 online feeder structure, which qualified over 50% of the total entries."

In essence its a grass roots poker event, paying 10% of the field and the min cash is a huge return for a fair proportion of the field emanating from those qualifying for very little

Think this is better, thks tighty

Yes foggy people did have lots of goes but after the 50xseat sats players had bullets ready to use. Think my spend was £170

Mbn getting in for 55p but even if I do then I spend money tryin for more or adding on so this stat is kinda clouded isn't it?
But agree that it's grass roots and there will be a handful who get in for 55p,5.50 or even just the £60 so min cash is ok, if u have lots of goes then min cash is irrelevant and making FT or last two is a goal

Thank that help alot

Right, got the first entry in the leader board!!!! Lets go for the max!!!!

Haha gogogo Vinod, you can do it!
What's your plan of attack? Will it be play every day?
There quite tough only giving 1st place usually
Wd bagging one early doors

Hi Ross, definitely gunning " race to 10 seats" promo. Basically a free seat for UKIPT is too good a chance to miss. I agree that you might spend about £100 quid to get 10 seats ( I am loving the fact that the sats are now F/O and not 1R1A) so the seats are worth £600 + you do get a crack at the UKIPT.
Also the later sats that run at 7 and 9 PM usually generates 2-3 seats per night, so getting a seat should be EASY  ;) ;)

vinod, have they changed the payout too? think i say 2nd getting like 25quid insted of money back which is brill! ive only had 1 attempt, not had many evenings free to play these :(
 gl bro

I got one Vinod! Ill try again 2'mo

Yeah man... wd.. see you again tonight

Would be in for this race ....if I could play the Grand Prix !

Yes I read your away lee :( guess with it being over a holiday weekend it won't suite everyone

11pm grand priz ast not seen one before needs 3 more runners get there

Can we merge stacks in this?

no - best stack carries forward again

Excuse my ignorance. I haven't played a Grand Prix before or played any golden chip sats. I played last night and won one. What happens to my spare golden chips if I say win 3-4 and I play one of the first day1s and get 400k so therefore don't need to play another flight.

TIA

Use them or lose them...no refunds

Play more day ones to try and improve your stack or don't use them and they expire

It's a personal opinion as to whether it's worth trying to get loads or not

Last Grand Prix I got one chip and made it through but the one before that I had a bag full and busted every day one

this is correct

You do NOT forefeit your stack if you have a second attempt

As the tokens lapse after the Grand Prix, try again and try and beat the first stack you get through with

thanks for signing up and playing by the way

how often is the leaderboard being updated tighty? would kinda help if we knew what everyone had on a daily basis

i should be able to play this as it ties i nnicely with my 3 on 3 off rota onboard the rig

I get home friday, all being well, so am hoping there might be some golden chips still to play for

another request for a list of how many have been won etc

Hi Guys,

The leaderboard is updated here:
http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/gold-chip-leaderboard.php

It is updated daily Mon-Fri (occasionally on Saturdays)
This will continue to be the case until it goes down to the wire I believe. At the minute we have 2 players on 6 who are the closest. 4 through 10 are all on 4 or 3 so they can be caught.

Good Luck guys.

thanks for that, very usefull

hopefully there will be some left for me to take a chip to the live stages

Mick

no no no its only 11k dtd are giving away   too hard to win

wait for the 10 seats gtd week before event  you dont need a golden chip ! ;)

9 pm one finished 3 golden chips

Boobytwaps again now on 7  i think its fair to say he had a good day

shellysbellys was on 2 now 3

pokerfish88 was on 1 now 2

11pm one too late for me currently 13 regged one gold chip might make two

Boobytwaps going for a hat trick gl him / her

Hmmmmmmmm....Is my understand wrong all the time???? Is it 10 seats GTD for the first 10 who gets 10 GCs quickly ( my understanding) or its only 1 seat GTD for the first person to reach 10GCs?

Hi guys,
To clear up any confusion. It is the first 10 players to win 10 golden chips. Still time for anyone to have a go.

not anyone

but i get home this weekend

then i might try get me one of them there chippies!!!

boobytraps such a luck box! getting it in behind so many times! haha ;)
23wrj gf bagged the 11pm flight after also going in behind a handful of times

im planning on playing 24 goes up to 6th march. my goal 3chips. Uzi patman!!! yeahman!

nice work 'h' :)

Are the GC sats today? Can't seem to find them

There was one at 5 o'clock (keeer-chiiiing) but i think they have forgot to put the others on.

both 7pm and 9pm not in the lobby!!! if the sats dont run, looks it will be very difficult to get that magic number 10!

chill Vin plently of time

although i was planning on winning 3 tonight so if 3 could be added to my tally that would be great
am sure no one else will mind

2 winners in the 5 o'clock...not sure who the other one was but i did bust mr boobytwaps  Ac Qc with my mighty  Ks 3h to take the win.

I got three now but i'm not going for the 10...just playing them as and when i win a token via the 50p feeders.

"Tech email from iPoker said a number were pulled for technical reasons.

 
Can only apologise atm."

Not a good answer!!!

rushed back to get into 11 to find cancelled :( sigh. hope theres not too much of this going to happen

yay got me a golden chippie in the 11pm sat. finish time 1am. 2more 2mo plzzzzz
some women on it is running golden ;)

setalot, aka, "h" on here, is close....

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/596.jpg)

i am not that close

have got 8  two to go

Who won the golden chips yesterday, I can't seem to find an updated leaderboard

it updates mon to friday

updates were not done on friday so theres like a 4day break where no-one has a clue whats going on lol

To be fair, it's highly unlikely that all ten prizes will be claimed over the weekend.

yeah but over 4 days david alot can change and will surely determine if players will continue or start 'racing' for the golden chip. if were racing its nice to know where we stand

if it helps...still on 3...not played any this weekend...might have another go midweek.

Pretty sure there's only 5-10 playing all the time so those chasing it should all get to 10 eventually   :)up

im playing pretty much all time but still cant master these, think 2 people may have 10 now and 3-4 others with 6-7 and they wont be slowed down, be interesting to see
be good to see you on there smurf :)

i dont think any one got 10 yet !

Noone has got 10 yet

http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/gold-chip-leaderboard.php

Latest leaderboard on that link

Cheers ACES

thought you'd be there by now
not long now though i guess before 2-3 players reach that point, by mid/end of week

have to say even though ive had some bad patches of runbad, ive enjoyed the banter of these

Simon thats showing leader board as of friday 
I have got 9 as of now and dont think any one else has more

leader board all updated on link above
top 15 shown below and change over week end

has this been answered??

Not seen an answer but pretty sure in the past it's been said that online is an addition to the club and therefore they don't like the two to clash and theoretically reduce footfall on the club...could be wrong (but I'm not wrong often  ;popcorn;)

 ;karabiner;

wd fella, now stop playing these and getting so lucky, save it for the tournament!!!

Well done H, congrats.

Very we'll done mate.

I intend to add to my tally this week :-)

Had a dabble myself last night - couldn't believe the players that were slagging each other off in the chat box at the 55p mini sat level - pretty sure some one had put angry pills in the water system

Three different occasions - gonna have another play tonight and see if everyone is friends again - looking for one more chip so I can play all 4 online legs

(And well done set for hitting the ten)

Excellent, well done

wd H nice job, ever in doubt? ;) now u can leave the rest for us now

Well done H.

Prepping your confirmation email now ;)

9 more to go guys!

And then there were 9!

yesterday Setalotx/Hugh went on to win his £1,100 UKIPT seat for winning his 10th Golden Chip

There are still 9 UKIPT seats up for grabs and plenty of time to get involved with 4 Grand Prix SATS every night

For all info please visit: http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/grand-prix-11/2405

Just found this thread, Well done Set! These games are getting too much of a part of my every day life which isn't good!!  I'm very jealous ur on 10! Just hope I don't suffer from withdrawal if (and hopefully 'when') I get to ten! ha! All the best anyway, 23WRJ23 Will

took ya time getting on here Will lol. you got another last night WD, you do have to put some sick hours in to gather these chips ill agree its consuming 90% of my time. cya on there 2nite no doubt

hi Will
i am sure you will get to ten plenty of time both you and AERO  have been playing from start and that head start should mean you both will get there
i was never really too concerned whether i was first to 10 or 6th to 10 although wouldn't want to be fighting for one last one with 9 gone and 3 or 4 players needing just 1 lol

ty for all the wd messages

ever in doubt ? yes and no as always most people don't start playing these until last minute
i checked it out yesterday first 1 played was on day it started 11Th of Feb at the start i think lots were playing wit there previous grand prix winning
so was lots of seats up for grabs
first 1 i won was on the 14Th and second 1 too so of to a flyer that was when there was only 3 running a day
think Boobytwaps won 2 in one day too

 do not believe any one playing these have a massive skill edge just need a little run good to get going and then a little more to get you over the line
 ty to all those who gave good wishes in chat box when i was on 9

gl to all still playing

I think posting on here was a good omen!  What a relief, I'm glad it's over!  Best of luck to you Ross, I'm sure it won't be long til u finish it off. Here's sending you the run good I had the last 2 nights, I don't need it any more! Look forward to hopefully meeting everyone in real life at the Grand Prix next month! Gonna miss the banter from playing but not the games!  Good luck to everyone else too, especially Aero, and of course 1mbue!

Well done mate, another ukipt seat gone. I'm hoping to win mine over the next few days :). Got a busy weekend lined up though

It's getting tight at the top! 23WRJ23 is the next player to win his UKIPT seat in the Race to Ten.

There are a number of you on just one or two chips but it is not too late to put a run together and win your £1,100 seat!

http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/news/grand-prix-11/2405#firstto

hmm just a thought is it first 10 unique players or could some win a second 10 and second ukipt seat ?

Speaking from experience I'd suggest not...

Can confirm it is first 10 uniques.

i believe AERO4 got to 10 yesterday so 7 spots left

congrats to her

well done to the three of you, gutted ididnt start playing this promotion at the start, would have love to given it a bash.

Felt my ears burning...so joined up  ;D

Thanks guys...see you at the GP and UKIPT  ;cupcake;

K xx

welcome to blonde stick around

hey karen, yes welcome to blonde and congrats! hope this isnt a brag post ;)
wd on getting to 10. im suffering at the min been stuck on 6 since the dawn of time, or it feels like it lol. if i dont bink one this week im guna find a very big cliff!...... and scream on the top lol x

Get in!! Was on 7 then won the 11pm sat last night, the 7pm and the 9pm sats today. So hit the magic 10.

Can't wait for the leaderboard to be updated tomorrow and see 10 next to my name.  ;D

Good luck all those still going for it

 ;karabiner;

was watching congrats m8

wd blake nicely done m8 :)

You lot need to pull your fingers out - not bothered since I hit my forth token then looked today to see 10th position only has 5.

The smurf might just have to throw a few quid at those 55p sats to get you lot worried.   ;nemesis; 

Come on - get your ten.

VWP to all recent winners. I'm quite surprised by this surge but it seems there is going to be some stiff competition for the last five or six.

I've emailed all winners the day after they have won and can see you've all posted on here since. If you haven't received said email can you please let me know.

Glenn

Well done Dan and Karen

Karen Mead is it?

MORE SEATS GTD EACH NIGHT

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BidgybaCEAE21I2.png)

just as i was about to challenge you all for the 10...they change to unlimited rebuys and an add on...never mind...good luck all

Sticking with my 4.

EDIT  10 seats guaranteed...missed that...might have a crack then  ;D

i must say this is one of the best promotions dtd has run, whuch i would have got in on the act. lol

gotta try bag a couple before the mega sats, give me more of a head start i think
i assume the 11pm didnt run tonight sigh :(

why isnt there a 5pm sat? i know theres a 11pm one. one either side of mega sat would of been nice. ive put so much time into this, just want to get there, soooooo dont wana bubble

Would have chalked one up last night if Vindoh had let me  :P

Think I've left it wayyy too late to start now.

haha lock and load tomo, if u gt one from her you'd be a ledge bud

on another note smashing how we wait until 7pm for sat then smack on the time and ipoker closes down and i cant get back on, have 3 sat tables up. lovely waste of money i just assume so players taking great advantage of this given im not the only person!! :((( seriously miffed off

The way that this iPoker is failing at the moment, this satellite has zero playability. Some people have been logged in since 7pm and played four hands

chucked out again just before the add-on, nice one :(

yeah not happy ruud

is it still running?

can't log back in so assume my stack has been blinded off.

Really annoyed about this, as could really do with winning one tonight as I chase the 10 for UKIPT. Not good timing

the whole of IPoker has problems, multiple reports of people having problems

that doesn't help i know but Nicola and DTD will keep us in touch and then look how things can be rectified afterwards

i do hope 10x random toeksn dont get dished out for the few if any who havent been kicked out. like a handful of other players im chasing for £1100 and dont really want luckboxes coming from behind and stealing. this should be all refunded or all get golden chip who played simple? only way to be fair to all players.
i know its ipoker but im still holding dtd responsible, this is happeneing alot luckily ive not been played when this has happened but this is defo worst time smack on 7pm???? weird

Mr Yeahman can be prone to the odd mad rant - but I totally agree with everything he has said here. Spot on Ross.

odd!lol

spent 3 rebuys for GP still its all fucked up. was playing the super feeder as well!!! this is just ridic. this has to happen only when we are chasing that elusive 10 tokens............. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.. rant over!

I agree, that's my concern too yeahman123 :/ not everyone was kicked off
Will have to wait and see what Dtd think

it says server error on my account but im back on. no games showing up and my balance has increased back up abit so maybe so refunds have been done :) fingers crossed no goldens handed out unless all round ;)

Hi guys. Id literally just got in from the office and starting chatting on the tables when everything went. It looks like everything got cancelled/interrupted. If the Grand Prix Ten seated played out (which Im 99% certain it didn't) we will reach a fair solution regarding the race to ten. Sorry again. Glenn

ty Glenn

Can confirm tournament was officially interrupted meaning no results were generated. This means the Race to Ten Leaderboard is unaffected.
We're just awaiting the iPoker report regarding refunds.

Glenn

thks Glenn, suppose thats kinda good news.
shellys on 9 now. my 9pm gift was a mistake lol
safe to say theres only really 4 spots left, what happens if theres a draw Glenn? with 10seats gtd sats this is more than possible.
whys nothing ever easy :( sob sob
roll on 7pm

There is something in place in the event this happens. Don't worry it won't be a random draw and we won't be flipping for 1K seats.

wicked glenn

also ive noticed theres no mini feeders for the 5.50 tokens? any reason? im working but can multitask ;)

hmm 10 seats gtd  might play these

The 55p's didn't survive yesterday's issues. They are being re instated ASAP.

Glenn

setalot if you donk me off i wont be a happy bunny! yeah get ya sen on the 7pm, ul rebuy wiiiii donations welcome into prizepool ;)

and thks glenn, the 55p 5pm is up :)

nah was just looking for a bite

gl mate  am sure u can do it

thks bud, not going to be able to do it with the way ipoker is

SAME PROBLEM AGAIN, 7PM IT CRASHES :((( ive spent £100's on this and so much time, :((( really not happy

kick back on 5-10min later.were in

did they both run last night? (friday?)

yes 10 chips  at 7 pm and 1 at 9 pm

dont know if dtd will update leader board or not this week end

but think its now as below

shellsybellsy 9
yeahman1234 7
martynf88 7
Vinodh1980 6
MuckFast3r 6

ruud101 6

andrew194777 4
 

sitting on 4 for now as there are 4 online legs...really like the look of the 1 in 5 sats that start from 55p and get all the way to £1100 for the UKIPT...thats my new goal from next week.  ;danafish;

Eeeeek!! Squeeky bum time :) good luck all!!

tonights 7 pm says 5 seats gtd ?

i know. wtf is going on? ive been supporting this idea pretty much from the word go but with messing around with sats and site crashing im unhappy, but who cares right!? why is sat night 5x gtd yet other nights were 10 seats.? loads of players have jump on the wagon and now in the running? i know it sounds selfish but seriosuly wrong in my view

Is it because Saturday most players will be at the club?

Seems pretty standard that Dusk have/had lower gtees online sats Thurs-Saturday?

to be fair...can fully understand the anger.

Dtd give away 11 grands worth of free seats and all they get is earache

if there wasnt the race on i woudnt have a issue at all, it prob shouldnt matter, maybe they should do 50x seats gtd monday? im not expecting people to understand its just my view

just be nice to know whats going on,what night, so players can plan

Which happens to be a very selfish and immature view. Of course people are jumping on and trying to win.its a good promotion and many players often join in some time after the start and put volume in.

No beef Ross but I don't understand what you're getting so annoyed about?

just felt is was running fine with 1x gtd 1rebuy with 4 sats per night. put real volume in not 2 hours a night lol. knew you was going to change sats, just wasnt expecting it until maybe 2weeks before comp. obviously im guna look after myself so its selfish in a way
i only need 3 chips but only really 4 spots left with shelly bagged.
do we know what nights our what gtds so one can plan?

Mate if I were you I'd keep focussed on getting seats no matter what the format. DTD can do what they like with this promotion cos it's added value. Any time/energy you're spending on here moaning is taken away from your race to 10.

Best of luck

its fine bedi i enjoy mixing things up and most of all moaning, maybe connections with ipoker has left me tilted aswell. i thought 10 seats gtd tonight?, i have to play in my spot, so i stay in to play.
the 10x seats is giving more people a chance to win?( now i know its selfish but only natural) so the players who were on 3-4-5 and looking to maybe give up because they didnt put time in or ran bad have now got the chance to catch and have much better chance than playng sat with only 1-2 chips able to win. these sats can be won by anyone including myself obviously just abit sick watching donks bag chips and now our right behind me

i guess my point is
There seems to be no set satellites gtd on any night past the one shown on ipoker? anything can happen so im freeing up all my nights to play.
and also changing to 1seat gtd to 10xseats just seems extreme.

i dont wana get in trouble so i'll say no more but just think its all abit random.
can we expect 20x gtd next week though seriously im in.

 

congrats  ;applause;

1p sats maybe in the last week :D

ty bud, i know i need to focus more and quit trolling blonde ;) im joking btw i just moan like a trooper and like to rant everynow and then rich puts me in my place lol

congrats to shelly who just bagged her 10th :)

Shelley Bedi you absolute sicko

Thank youuuu!! So upcited!

Thank you!! And good luck :)

with 10 seats guaranteed - you got a better chance to reach your goal surely!!?? or am i missing something.

i do not think DTD intended them to  switch to 5 seats was 10 on friday
currently on line ads  in lobby still saying 10 seats at 7 pm however tonight's game is currently set up as 5 seats gtd 
think its a game set up cock up rather than a conspiracy to annoy yeahman

could be

i will fire off a note and ask for clarification

This is advertised for tonight.  I know the lobby says 5 seats. Have emailed Nicola

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/614.jpg)

Yesterday online support said they are now running 5 seats at 5 & 7 unlimited rebuy and freeze at 9

thanks

Nicola has just confirmed to me

"Changed the 10 seats at 7 to 5 seats at 7 & 9 so same amount of seats just split."


Sorry for the confusion

just to confirm the change

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/615.jpg)

its tight at the top now !

yeahman1234   7
Vinodh1980   7
ruud101   7
MuckFast3r   7

somehow, I still dispise the fact that all the sats are now ul rebuys. Just to be in the race, it makes you throw atleast £25-£30 every satellite. Can there be atleast 1 freezeout sat at 5 for early birds like myself??

Are you playing the direct sats in to it aswell...I am going to start trying this week, once you get a £55 token it's two 1 in 5 games.

Surely another 'way in' ?

You'll probably get your ten then make day two with your first bullet then have to play all the other 9 anyway  :)up

Unfortunately not yet smurff? but if I couldnt get that elusive seat, then thats the only other opion left anyway!

3 X £1100 Seats still to win?

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/596.jpg)

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/615.jpg)

Not 3 yet Richard! 4 seats still available!!

You passed the test. Anyone would think you were trying to win one.

The race seems to be between 7 players with only 4 spots left. Hope I get some run good this week else it's game over. £25 per sat ain't cheap

I'm 6/4 to be bubble boy Hugh haha

At c£25 per sat there is very little value in the Golden Chip unless you can also add the promotion prize to it. Good luck Ross and Vinodh.

I am a long term supporter of the Grands Prix but have to say that this promotion hasn't suited me. I don't have the time to play 2 or 3 satellites a night on multiple nights, let alone the cash, and the 'Race to Ten' seems designed to appeal to a player pool that isn't the original target market for these events.
All the stuff with multiple entries seems to me be driven solely by a desire to maximise the traffic in satellites without any of the money that is driven into them being removed from the target tournament. Allowing multiple entries to players regardless of their results in the early Day1s is obviously good for DTD (as opposed to paying out unused satellite wins in cash as used to be the case) but it skews the play in the later Day1s, especially since most people won't be aware of who is playing with the safety net of already having made Day2. It's preferable to the merge stacks option, but not by much.

Thks David,
Spoke to vin last night and if We want to stay in with a chance we have to play every one, I wish I hadn't of started. Be nice to get te seat then I'll post up games played and cost. Thing it'll scare the life out of me. I want to support Dtd because it's a epic place to learn and play poker but ur right with some points. I've been called Uzi Patman by Somerville so I can't say I don't enjoy it. However it has changed and seems to each time

As you say its horses for courses...i am with you that i didn't see any value in accruing vast amounts of chips just to get a seat in another tourny unless they were easy to get...which they are not.
My total spend was just under £100 with the 55p sats and using up my points to get the four chips and i was well happy with that.
These guys are so close it's a case of 'no turning back'...i think the total spend will be a shock to them.

God knows what yeahman will do if he misses out or gets the 10 tokens and doesn't make day 2  ;hide; (only kidding Ross)

Haha gordan, I'm preparing myself for the worst situations possible. Still in a good spot just as you say , too far now to stop ;)
This week will tell :)

good luck, and to martyn, ganesh and ruud.

we could have a blonde full house if three of you make it.....

I think you should all get T-shirts made to wear on the day...something like "been through hell to get here...golden chip gang"

 ;whistle;

Thanks Richard!! Hope to get "that" elusive 1 more tonight  and get the monkey off my back!!! GL to everyone chasing!!! Gonna be quite a night online today!!!

I see the pressure has seen a change to your style of play vin...flicked the tables up last night and must have seen 12 hands in a row and you didn't push all in once  ;)

Lol Gordan!! Spot on!! at one point, it came down to just survival and had a decent stack so had to control the urge of moving all in;)

Never! Haha ;)

I did witness Martyn break records with about 15 rebuys in a sat. Hope it comes to a draw and we all get to 10 same time :)))
Can't dismiss 1mbue or acemick either

23WRJ23   why are still playing ?

its getting very tight for the 10th seat!

Monkey off the back finally!!! GL to Ross! 1 more for him!! Hope you get in the 9 PM mate!!!

Cheers Hugh!! This is what Run good means yeah;)

Was only playing to pass the time and I enjoy it tbh!  Also rather than railing 1mbue, I'd rather play.  I've given up now tho with 1mbue in the race, not gonna play any more, cos the last thing I need to be is on a FT with her for her seat.  If I busted her on the bubble, she'd bust me up bad n probably wouldn't talk 2 me for a month, so I'm not gonna put myself in that situation! ha

Well done Vinod by the way, n good luck to the last few!

Well done Yeahman!  At last!

Boooooooom tastic  well done

Congrats to all the dtd sat reg's who have got the 1k seat as a bonus.  I give up with this promo very early i thought it would involve a huge commitment to the cause day after day and i didn't see the point of having 10 GP seats if you bink a massive stack in the 1st or 2nd gp day 1 you play.

stokesfinest

Where's the standard h update?

;)

thks everyone for the support! liked the banter :) FT was rather nervous but thankfully hands played themselves and i wasnt really involved to much. got lucky in a few spots. really enjoyed the support from people setalot,blake,will,karen,vinod. also allan come on to add to the nerves :)) felt like a nightmare at times

finally i can leave my house in the evenings!!! YEAHMAN!!!

suprised i didnt see muck and ruud play tonight but not complaining for once ;)

Good luck to all those still going for it?

8 people have now 10 Dan!!

Glad in a way I couldn't get involved with this !!
Well done guys & good luck to those chasing !

GL ruud101 get it done

I'm being curious nosy. Feel free to not respond.

Thx vin, are people that are now still on like 3/4 stopped playing? Really hope this continues to get traffic as it is a great promotion by DTD. It got me back on the site and tbh I will continue to play on there. Like Ross said there has been some good banter and support on there from the guys that regularly played in these sats.

^^ both of these

Haha no probs David I don't mind/care I'll have a look at my history an post spend later today :)

One person who made 10 has told me they spent about £200, I don't believe that though for 1sec lol

Congrats guys on getting 10 Golden Chips. Now go deep in it!

Have to agree that anyone with 10 chips would have spent more than £200... I would say easily £400-£1000

Just a thought ... Those with 10 if you make day two early in the week via online and have a tasty stack that realistically will be hard to beat will you be arsed to travel and play all the live legs aswell??? Or was the reason for the 10 purely to get the UKIPT seat???

Two spots left?

Very well done to Ganesh and Ross last night.

I have spent around £500 for sure! definitely the reason for getting 10 is the UKIPT seat for me.. I would still go the live legs but not sure how many! depends upon how the stack is relative to the largest one. Haven't even looked at the structure properly yet lol
TY Richard!!!

I had a net spend of around £275. My total spend was around £345 but also won a bit of cash when finishing a place or two outside the golden chips.

My feelings changed about getting the 10. When I started there was already a couple of players on 4 and 3 so didn't know if it would be realistically possible so I started off playing it as Grand Prix sats but I won 2 very quickly. The third and 4th didn't seem to take too much longer and all of a sudden I was well in the top 10 on the leaderboard. Once you get to 6/7 you can't stop so it is literally all about the ukipt seat.

If I get a good stack early on I will probably still play a few live legs as I will probably stay over on the sunday night to play the Monday so will play at least the 2 sunday legs but don't know about the Friday or Saturday. I guess it depends on if I have any re entries online.

Well played Ross Vino and others. I started but soon realised the commitment required was not sustainable. Always fun playing these sats tho.

thks rich

you did very well Dan, i think i may be the winner of 'spend the most' aka be the worst haha. although Martyn must of put alot into this too.

ive had a look at my account and ive tried my best to pick out bits and get it right for ya david!
ive deposited 750.00 for this over a period of time, i had a few punts at other sats though so have had to take those tourney buyins out.

ive played around 110 satellites maybe more!lol. ive had some place cash i.e £7.5/£10/£20.
went on a run when sats were only 1seat gtd where i didnt win a seat for around 28 attempts
it seemed to come to around 650.00 but think i should say £700.00 to play it safe

im still happy with outcome,although would of been nice to get in for abit less spendo

@smurf im guna try play as many day1s as poss, im not too far from dtd so will play the live sats.

The promo has been very effective it seems. Hope one of you gets the lot in the UKIPT, and gets some of it in the GP (assuming I can negotiate the chance to play over Easter Week/Weekend)

I guess a spend of £700 for the combined value of the seats, plus the chance to FT and also pick up the Golden Chip Bonus is fair enough if you have the chance to play all the Day1s. Dan's spend is better though!

Be good to see you there David, think our last table encounter was a super50 after a deepstack or something like that last year.
I'd 100% agree dans spend is better! Think he gathered 3/4 chips in one week lol, looks easy but for me it wasn't lol.

GL to all blondes still in

my spend was £295  i was fortunate to run good early on and didnt have to get involved in the unlimited re buys

my best  guess is that Boobytwaps or shelly will have lowest expenditure  based on number of games i saw them in

for me the attraction was always the ukip seat

i think there is no possibility of me using all 10 depends how i run in the on line ones
i didn't manage to use all my chips last time as didn't end up taking all possible re entry's

wd martyn :)

ul ruud. the FT's do spring up some nasty hands to decide what to do with in certain spots. gl 2mo that 10th is urs

One more winner in the race to ten required, and around 200 Golden chips left in total

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/615.jpg)

Is there any point in playing the sats, any further    ...    looks like only one spot left now in the 'race to ten'.

I think total spend for me was less than £100, most of my chips being won before the unlimited rebuys started! That and the fact the earlier freezes often had cash payouts for the bubble :)

The initial attraction was the golden chips for £5!! But after I'd got 4 relatively quickly the focus became the race to ten! So exciting

Can't believe it's the last spot! Good luck

Well done MrsG - take it down.

still a Final Table bonus for Golden Chip holders.

Depends on your goals - four online legs means four for me, that's not to say I won't play any more but that would be on the actual week of the tourney if I busted all four and fancied a live day of play..pretty sure there will be some mega sats that week even if all the golden chips are long gone but I think the end of the race to ten will deffo see a drop in players

as the guys say, still 200 or so Golden Cips to win and lots of day ones to play to get the bigggest stack for the final weekend...

Do you think the chip leader will come from the Saturday or Sunday day 1s. The reason I say this is because it appears there alot of people with numerous day 1s.

This means they only take their largest stack through so if for example they get through with 200,000 (totally made up number) and have more day 1 tokens to get rid of they will be looking to gamble and again for example throwing in 150,000 at the end of the levels with nothing. Could be alot of big flipping towards the end

if i had 5 i would still be playing until after the 10 th spot has gone

there is no gtd  either of the 2 presently on 8 will get to 10

Thanks again Glenn, muchly appreciated :)

Smon is in the process of nailing down the schedule for the upcoming Grand Prix

WIll be pretty busy with Day 1's on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but we also have a lot of travelling players for our Grand Prix's -

so does anyone have any preferences for a side event on the Bank Holiday Monday.

Last GP we did a Super 50 + 2 RL £20,000 GTD?

171 Golden chips left according to the latest leaderboard

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/623.jpg)

HAHA.  I remember making that tinfoil hat, a great deal of effort went into it!!!!  Despite Ross winning this package, I'm sure he still believes online poker to be rigged  ;D

Hi, just a couple of questions as I haven't played a Grand Prix before. For the live legs do I still need to register online? If I need to re enter a live leg with one of seats how do I do it at the club?? Also for a live leg if I'm late regging do I still need to do it online before it starts or just reg when I get to the club?

Thx

Yes register online for live legs

this can be done at the club on the day if necessary, but much preferable to do it beforehand so as to avoid queues

if you re-enter a live leg then one of the team will help you do it at the club, if you have tokens unspent

late regging, on arrival.

Thanks Richard. Helpful as always.

I've managed to talk john into coming up on the Sunday for the two live legs too so will be a good weekend.
Will you be around?

yes all being well. I enjoy updating the Grand Prix and the atmosphere at the last one was one of the best at DTD for a long time

Your dam right haha

Should of kept that hat

151 Golden Chips remain

The Grand Prix SATS are at 8pm every evening

 Win yours for £5 and then Final Table the Grand Prix for £5,000 in DTD tourney buy ins on top of your prize money.

Finalised schedule now with 50,000 starting chips, and some minor changes to the timings and levels, on

http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/grand-prix-11/2405

"looking forward to 3000 runners (hopefully)" says Simon

Whats the expected finishing time for a 12pm start assuming you make Day 2 please?

We are playing 8 hours + breaks for Day 1's.

Day 2 is planned for a 9pm - 10pm start for the final and 1am -2am finish, but it very much depends on how the players play / who is deep and the chip stacks.

Awesome, cheers Simon.

If you a play a live day1 starting at 12pm will it finish in time to late reg for the other day1 starting later that day??

each day one is 8 hours plus breaks

my understanding is that in the last level of the early flight gets you to the end late reg period of the second flight, not quite the end of the day but you are able to make a "stack decision" in the last level of the first flight

(simon can correct me if this is wrong, but thats my working it out)


schedule, starts, late regs etc are on  http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/news/grand-prix-11/2405

Ok thanks again rich. Thought it would be better if for DTD (more runners) if you could finish one day1 then play another could possibly get another 30-40 players in the later flight??

really looking forward to the grand prix.......  so much fun for little outlay!

the satellite programme steps up tonight with 10 day one seats GTD at 7 and 9pm in £5 golden chip (while they last) satellites

According to the latest leaderboard there are 126 left

Glad you added Sunday as day 1 live carnt get fri or sat and prefer live play to online see you Sunday

does anyone elst think that the 2 hour rebuy time for online qualifing is a bit excessive???

Hi Mumblesrock

Which Grand Prix online comp is this, the maximum we do is 1 hour for late reg and RB for the Grand Prix £5 satellites, and the £60 Online Day 1's are 6 levels of 12 minutes for late reg and don't have a RB option?

Cheers ACES

hi simon,

think mumblesrock is referring to the 10xgolden chip sat. think its 10min levels, ul rebuy and late reg until level12

Upped guarantee for the nightly satellites

I played the 500 mega sat last week with 2 hours late reg/rebuy time,knocked out 24th after 40 mins of everyone understandably slow playing and it was 12:45am so I don't know what time it finished - completely screwed me up at work for two days lol having to get up at 6am the next day...it's probably the blind level times more than the late reg that I thought was a bit long.

Planning on waiting till Friday nights now so I don't have to be up early the next day  ;tk;

thanks simon,  Its the online qualifiers for the golden chips. 11 levels at 10 mins each.  just think 2 hrs is a bit to long for rebuys especially in the 9pm start. just an observation.

the above post is for the gp mega satalites.  Are these mega satalites fo golden chips?? 

i just confirmed with maria at dtd, all satalites are for golden chips untill the 500 have run out!  horay.  ;sexybanana;

yes, there are around 120 left

get them while they last

yeah you only have a few days though bud before there all gone

Yes, going to be gone by the weekend

72 left according to the latest leaderboard

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/647.jpg)

Will be c50 golden chips left for next week's Grand Prix when the eladerboard updates

they'll go by the end of the weekend

2 x 10 GC satellties tonight at 7 and 9pm

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/647.jpg)

Apologies if already asked but how long is late reg open for on the GP sats and what time do the sats at 7/9 normally finish?

LR 55 mins,

They take 90-120 mins with a 5 min clock, depending on how tight players play

Cheers ACES

well done to simon and the dtd team for listening to players and reducing the gp sats rebuy's to an hour.  it makes for a much better qualifying experience!! ;applause;

Apologies, it was an error when they moved from 5 seats to 10 seats GTD, for some reason ipoker put the clock to 10 mins aswell as the seats to 10!

Simon

Are the £250 9pm sats also a mistake with 2 hours late reg and rebuy??? 

4-5 hour games does seem very long for satelittes...TIA

 :dontask:

Hi

Where do you get this information from please?

I have just checked tonight with Nicola, £100 UKIPT took 2 hours 54 minutes and £25 DTD 250 took 3 hours 13 minutes?

Have asked her to check back previous ones and this is about the average duration time for these satellites give or take 10 mins either way?

Are we talking about the same satellites? Either way, the general rule of thumb is 2.5 min clock 45 mins, 5 min clock 90 mins, 10 min clock 180 mins, and so on and so on.

Cheers Simon

Hi Guys

So Rob & Simon snuck out the office for 10 mins and look what I've gone and done.......

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/652.jpg)

You knew it was coming.............

Enjoy

Nicola :)

Hi

It was a £500 sat I played a week or two ago with two hours late reg, I busted with 4 to go out and the game had started at 9pm and it was 12:45ish so I assumed they were all lasting similar times - if it's three hours average I must have been unlucky in playing a marathon one...3 hours is ok.

OK, someone has finally gone mad

has leader board been updated today yet ?
how many golden chips left ?

Hi guys,

I think I just did the Leaderboard (James from IT usually handles it but has had a 'holiday' !?)
I make it 31 left :)

In the likely event that we have stray chips which we will have Monday we will honour all chips in that sat as Golden.

Glenn

leader board currently shows 213 players with 475 chip therefore 25 left rather than 31  :)up

online leg day one on monday has two legs in the lobby...8pm and 9pm -

8pm says cancelled but it allows you to register

9pm wont allow me to register with my golden chip...cash or points only.

Please look in to it or we could have lots of  ;madasahatstand; on monday night  :)up

Its being looked at. The first batch (now cancelled) were set up incorrectly and we need players in those to unreg. We have contacted them. We are then awaiting confirmation that tokens can work on the replacements.

The Grand Prix starts tonight

Q.  with 31 golden chips left to win and the mega sat tonight with a guarantee of 50 gp seats???  how will the 31 golden chips be allocated.  the top 31 0f the 50 getting the golden chips???

the leaderboard has yet to be updated for the weekend, so i am not sure there are any left

 Glenn said last week that if some remain, golden chips would be available for all 50 in the last satellite.

"In the likely event that we have stray chips which we will have Monday we will honour all chips in that sat as Golden."

Any updates on tonight's day one at 9pm...I tried again last night to reg but it still wasn't allowing golden chips to be used

Cheers

Hi guys,

looks like we should be good to go :)

If you are one of the three players in the cancelled one can you please unreg. Regarding SATS, I have 31 Golden Chips left meaning all prizes in the first 50 seater tonight will be Golden Chips.

Hope this helps.

Glenn

Also if you'd all like to jump into the penny rolls  :)up

50 x gtd golden chippies in first sat!? this is brill for all the sat lovers!!!!
great value WD dtd :)

In the £5.50 and day 1a wish me luck

Ok so I'm in day 1a  and the sat 50GC at the same time if I win a GC in the sat and I make day two with my buy in what will happen to the golden chip?

you will still have it unless you register with it - if you join before you win your GC then you are not playing the GC

i think

So no point in me playing day1a then

16 levels i think
gl all playing

well the GC sat finished shortly after day 1a started so would have been easy to late reg if you qualified.
There are no GC left now after the 7pm sat

you dont have to have a GC to play the grand prix though

have all golden chips gone now?

i thought they had gone in the last sat but the current 9pm sat says 50 seats (GC)

i think the last ones were the 7pm (31 left today, all 50 in the 7pm awarded them) one though you are right GC is on the 9pm lobby view

it still says (GC) for all the £5 sats in the lobby

one for glenn or nicola to clarify. could just be a set up/wording issue

14 or 16 anybody? Lobby says 16 but Tighty saying 14?

dtd web site says 16

assume 16

24 through tonight average 380 biggest stack 1.3 m

i  got 185  happy to get through   plenty of bullets left

Finished with 564k happy with that. Not sure I will beat that even with 8 more bullets left

made it too....6 of the "Golden 10" I counted through to day 2  ;woohoo;


220k for me.....now I need sleep and set up the IV Redbull for tomorrow  ;sleep;

K xx

Excuse me if this has been answered before. I have played in the Grand Prix several times, but never as a Golden Chip winner. Always bought in direct. I have this time won a GC. Registered for the tournament for Friday live.

Do I physically receive a Golden Chip when I turn upto the club.

Yes, there will be a supply of them on the registration desk. Normally the GC's have to displayed on the table for day two play

These are great value, were overlaying much of the first night. Excellent way to get day one seats, and from there try and get the biggest stack possible for Monday

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/images/promotions/653.jpg)

gl all the blonds who got through!  how many runners played last night.  what % of the field made it through!??

187 including re-entries I think.
24 got through so average is about 390k.

Also for people playing it finishes about 1230am.
Good luck everyone!

No-one likes a smug bastard!!!!

Hi guys,

Well done to those that got through. Just to clarify (GC) is the token code for our reference and is in no way related to the Golden Chips. The 50 last night in the 7pm were the last ones. The process of working put who has one is a manual thing that has to take re entries and entry methods into account and I/Nic will be doing these on a regular basis throughout the week.

Glenn

I probably should have been a bit less reckless with my first attempt last night, had almost 400k a couple of levels from the end and spewed it all away just before the last level.

Hi Guys

Here are the chip counts from last night's ONLINE Day 1 :)

We had 184 entries with a starting stack of 50,000 chips therefore there were 9.2Million chips in play - we also played 16 levels which is 2 more levels than we did in the last Grand Prix so a big difference seen in Day 2 stacks.

If we hit the 3,000 entries (which of course we will Rob)....then there will be 150Million Chips in play and blinds restart at 6,000 - 12,000 which an ante of 2000 so we expect to see some impressive stacks going in to Day 2 due to all of the above.

REMEMBER it's take your Highest Stack through so if you have more Tokens or wish to try again you WILL NOT forfeit this stack.

We have Penny Rolls starting again at 5pm today and another 100 seats GTD tonight....please support these sats as Rob left me in charge of the Mega Sats so it's all on my head ;) No pressure guys!

Well played to all Blondes - I know there are quite a few amongst these stacks and we're happy for you to claim your stack :)

Thanks Nicola

Have to add that the structure last night was great. Although would prefer an earlier start time than 9 so it finishes earlier. It's hard to grind the online day 1s all week when you are up at 6 the next morning

Hi Guys

Also forgot to mention....

If you MAKE DAY 2 WITH A GOLDEN CHIP and then try again and build a HIGHER stack you will KEEP the Golden Chip.

So to confirm you WILL NEVER lose a Golden Chip once you make day 2 :)

Thanks Nicola

First penny roll of the evening coming up at 5pm

hi nicola... i have 2 golden chips.  can i nominate to play them live and use a normal chip or cash entry for the online event???  or do you automatically use the golden chips first?

i can answer this, you automatically use them first

Lol at epileptic cat. Came to my table with 20k which was about 1/6th average. Open limped first hand and won it, won a flip, then another one, then got lucky, then won some more then some more then lost a bit and then went on a tear, tilted two big stacks on the table who both made bad calls and then he stacked them. And then he had 1.3m. WAL. Love it!

Tommy Bingham, ftw.

haha bingham not shy of running well on ipoker. little cash game online a while back where he ran like god too taking everyones money haha
1.3 not beaten yet!

odds bingham FT?

209 runners last night in the second online day one, up from 185 the night before

chip counts later

There continues to be terrific value in the 50 seat GTD 7 and 9pm satellites into the day ones, the 9pm one overlaid nearly £1,000 last night, for example

i can't name names but well done to those of you we know on here who made it through, see you at the weekend

Given hes on a bit of a heater at the mo, will have to be evens.

As some of us maybe going down for day 2 with a short stack, are there any decent side comps planned for the Monday afternoon?

Super50 Giant 3pm £20,000 GTD £50 buy in

XXL15 7pm £5,000 GTD £15 buy in

see

http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/schedules/apr-2014.pdf

Oh good cheers

3pm min cash busto comp set up nicely for me lol
would of liked a bounty or something that isnt on every week but the gtd is so big i know everyone is guna be like 'stfu ross u moaning git' lol

bingham i wana buy 10%! how much haha

Smurfs on the list with 500k so my last two online bullets are gonna be a bit gung-ho  ;sexybanana;



Also I've not seen Vinod play yet with his 10 chips - hope he's ok.

Good luck everyone in the remaining day ones.

Smurf what was people's beef last night online? Was u getting stick? Lol nice stack through btw

Oh btw Vinod did play last night ;) I'm sayin no more ;)

Yeah I was getting a bit of chat box abuse - I had 500k and was happy to take that to day 2...2 others had about 250k and were trying to double up, pretty much every raise was met with an all in so I just played the last level using the 15 second time bank and folding . Don't see I did anything wrong, not sure why I am expected to insta fold just so they can accrue more blinds and antes - then they both got called all in and got knocked out.
Poor etiquette on their part trying to blame me - I simply pointed out they had 3.5 hours of play before the last level and wished them all luck...water off a ducks back mate.

Hi Guys,

I know I can rely on all of you :)

If you could all reg to the 5pm Penny Roll I'd greatly appreciate it.

Glenn

Rich/Glenn , 7pm and 9pm £5 mega sats showing up as £11.  Is this a mistake or have they changed?

Hi I have just checked and its changed. sorry i didn't realise when i posted earlier

£11 7pm and 9pm today and tomorrow, 50 seats GTD in each.

Will be interesting to see what the £11 buy in does to numbers. I can actually see the overlays being bigger as not so many will take the rebuy or addon.

I was playing the £5 comp as a 1r1a for £15.50 total but at £31 it just won't be worth it for me and I might as well buy in direct.

I can see most of the entrants being the penny roll players who've already got in from a hugely overlaid comp and they won't want to spend £10 on a rebuy particularly towards the latter levels. With the structure as it is they'll struggle to reach the triple addon so I can see a lot just having the one 1p bullet.

I hope I'm wrong but I can see these overlaying by more than the £5 comps.

Only 3 players so far not sure it's going to make the 51 needed

It has 54 in. Are you looking at today's?

It had 3 then the 1p freeroll finish making up 50 more

that's exactly what happened to me tonight, penny roll into £11 sat and was a fight to make the add on, did manage it though but was hard work to make it a good value proposition

worth it in end though   :)

Note to self...learn to fold 2 pair :(

#IAMSPEWTARD

bagged another gp ticket last night.  thats 3 bullets for the live event!! hope its enough to get through.

gl all blondes 2nite :)) bit boring not seeing peoples names who go through :(((
maybe we could do a opt in opt out for blondes? think itll make it more fun knowing whos gone through with what stack :))

rich which one is me?

477,164
471,984

just so i know

happy if people want to reveal their stacks!

last night's 1m chip leader posts on here, for example.....

471984

I don't mind rich :)

Just a thought... How many chips stacks that have gone through are duplicates from prople who are already through. This is obviously going to take chips out of play and reduce numbers for day 2. Prob in the money for day 2 you think?

134300 is me.

Boom!

there are some duplicates in the stacks quoted yes. haven't worked out how many yet

whether day 2 would be in the money or not was debated last time, that Grand Prix being the first under the "try as many times as you want without forfeiting" arrangement and it ended up being about 10-15% of day 2 returnees who did not cash as far as I recall

241,190.
Had 525,000 when average 220 but spewed it off playing like a massive fish.

Think I've got 400 odd, but have forgotten tbh.

Didnt realise Day 2 was a Monday :(

would have had a real pop at these but had a big family do in the calender for some time for Sunday so assumed i couldnt play!

Will be having a crack at the sat tonight and hope to chase down batey and bingham

two live day ones tomorrow at 12 and 5pm

same on saturday

day 2 monday

you can have sunday to yourself!

203k, not sure whether to have a crack at improving that tonight

in for Saturday

what time do the doors open tomorrow to the club

I'd say 11.30am Chris. Unable to check right now but that's the usual, half an hour before an early start

thanks

then pou will see dusk grand prix online with today's date and 200+ registerted

register.

What the hell the £11 sat  finished before the buy in ended?

because 50 players were left, i assume

Sigh so my little tactic back fired

done that. just brings up ukipt sats

check filters, untick them all

then click the dtd grand prix tab

no ticks

dtd grand prix is in red
tourneys are two ukipt feeders 1.10 and 11 starting in 26/56 mins

blinking heck lol

try ticking NL and high in filters

tried that now as well as "show running"
no results found
losing the will to live

good luck now you are in!

Grand Prix players, I am at the Irish Open nursing a low stack but am keeping in touch with the cardroom - Good luck to all Dusk Till Dawn Grand Prix players this weekend. Had a few PM's from players with multiple tokens who are playing Flight 1's and are worried about not being able to use all their tokens - DON'T WORRY, I told the card room before I left to be flexible on Late Reg for Flight 1 players and keep Late Reg open on Flight 2 until Flight 1 finishes, around 9.45pm. Cheers ACES http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/grand-prix-11/2405

P.S. Just been all-in with AK, back up to 25K, getting too old for this..............

So how long late reg now then please

9.45pm on flight 2, to coincide with end of flight 1

So it still 6 levels then buddy

"DON'T WORRY, I told the card room before I left to be flexible on Late Reg for Flight 1 players and keep Late Reg open on Flight 2 until Flight 1 finishes, around 9.45pm"

so, logically, after level 6

good luck in ireland simon, keep grinding!!

used my first golden chip bullet, and got through to day 2 but with a misserable 115k.  card dean from level 12, was 100k after level 1........ so a little dissapointed.
but 2 more bullets so hoping for more chips over the weekend!!!

Late reg for the second flight being kept open to the end of the first flight at 9.45pm

Hope to see a lot of you at DTD today

what time will 12pm flight finish please (family stuff at ours later this pm) - cheers

9.45 according to the post directly above yours  :)

ah yep ;-)  cheers ...prob too late then which is a pity...

According to earlier posts on this thread somebody had 1,400,000 chips with 2 levels to go yesterday but bagged up substantially less. You could play today and follow his lead but avoid the big drop by leaving early...

two flights tomorrow as well....

i hope the £150k guarantee is met.... thinks its gonna be close for an overlay??? needs 400 runners per the 4 remaining flights?? seems like a tough ask!??  come on blonds get involved!!

with the re entries I think it will make the guarantee which is superb going

Will be over tomorrow to donate a couple more bullets.

Can anyone anwer this question.  I got 4 Golden Chips bullets from the early sats i bust them all if i reenter in cash tomorrow does the chip carry forward given i have had 4 already?  I have no idea.

don't think so

No, the subsequent entries tomorrow won't be Golden Chip entries

ty see you all tomorrow.  What's last entry time for tomorrow's first bullet?  Should be able to make it for about 3pm is that ok?

same tomorrow. bring your imaginary friends.

3.20pm

161 entries after 4 levels

entry open to 3.20pm

this means the current entry number is 1543, and looking like an overlay....


flights at 5pm, 12pm and 5pm tomorrow. Ayone who can make it down with £60, please do!

The 5pm flight has started with 116

Registration open til 10pm

could be a huge overlay (ouch)...i suppose if players have made day 2 and with it being a bank holiday weekend they are choosing not to fire more bullets at it to beat their stack.

i have been speaking to a few players who won multiple seats and many have had just one days grace by their partners, so forefiting some their seats to keep them indoors happy! might be similar tomorw as its easter sunday??
the overlay will prob look a bit worse than it actually is, if that is the case.
good luck all blonds who are still grinding!

GRAND PRIX GUILT TRIP

To hit the magic 3000 target, we need 1040 runners for the final day 1 of the Grand Prix this Sunday, a valiant effort by all of the DTD staff bearing in mind we increased the target from 2000 to 3000 this time round. Whilst I feel confident there is more chance of arriving at DTD tomorrow and seeing 10 pink elephants in stockings and suspenders flying above the car park singing Wonderwall than achieving the 3000 target, I would like to officially ask for a “bit of help” here from the DTD regulars/any players than know me - there are times when I need your support and this is one of them #yesthisisaguilttrip

Cheers Rob http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/grand-prix-11/2405

145 are left in Level 11 of 16 today

Julian Lefevre the chip leader with 350,000

In the 5pm flight there are 215 in in level 2. I thought it would be much busier than that

totting up the entries are at 2584 needing 3000 to hit £150,000

l guess we might end up £10-15k short, though the next few hours will be interesting to see

Robert Yong

"Missed the 3000 Grand Prix target by 147, ended on 2853, with over 700 players coming through the club's doors today.

Thanks for all the support from players and staff, these GP's are quite expensive with all the pennyrolls, 10 seats chip races, and then there is Golden Chips themselves, each Grand Prix costs us over £60,000 in staff costs and promotions so it's important we get as close to the target number as possible, of course, we don't need to target numbers in the 000's but that what the GP is about.

 thanks for turning out. Cheers rob"
