The UKIPT hosts the £1,000,000 Guaranteed UKIPT Main Event at the world famous Dusk Till Dawn Poker Club. Join the action from April 13-20, 2015.

More news as it is announced, schedule, satellites etc

Satellites to UKIPT Nottingham are running now on PokerStars. Find them in the lobby under: Live Events>Europe>UKIPT Nottingham.

Nice bit of lead time to qualify. Good news

will it be back to a proper structure or 'turboesque' like UKIPT London?

looks good to me, i might even be at home to play this one!!!

on 2p2 they have a full post about this but basically it looks like a carbon copy of the UKPC.

Day 1s on the Sunday, Weds, Thurs, Fri.

45 min levels on Day 1 then 60 on Day 2/3.

You are allowed 1 re-entry per day and into each subsequent day so 8 total.

UKIPT £1M online Sats start this Monday

In the Live Events Tab on partypoker - see tree attached

Freezeout sats?

No seats to EPTs making up part of the prize pool?

What's the score if someone makes Day 2 on an early Day 1?

the UKIPT Mini has 50 seats into the UKIPT Main as part of the prize pool

the full schedule is on http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/ukipt-nottingham/2450

freezeout sats? not that i can see, just as above

for the Mini, you are allowed 1 re-entry per day and into each subsequent day so 8 total.

Wiiiii.......Online day 1's for the mini's  :)up

will be in New York for mini which is pity (re missing mini not going to NY!) but binked a package for main at first attempt last night so will be back up for that - see if I cant improve on my min cash in UKPC - any word on structure Tighty as per my question earlier on thread? UKIPT London was a faster one, not sure if that was due to running it for 3 days but hopefully this one is a tad slower. Cheers.

Hi Abo,

Pretty sure the structure, clock & all the gubbins are here......


http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/ukipt-nottingham/2450

i think 45 minute levels for day 1 is good for these tournaments given the field size

That seems to be the current thinking, Chris, & we did the same thing at UKPC.

Not entirely sure we need 1 hour levels at the start of these things. Far better to give a better clock at the sharp end, imo. Not that I'd know, like. 

Thanks Tikay - so pretty a much a copy of the succesful Sky UKPC structure then - all good - though they will need to go some to match success of yours - they can start by allowing Tighty to blog for one!

Also the £300 works well and better than the £1k (changed to 500) 8 handed event so all in all good as long as Tighty is allowed to write about the action...and hopefully that includes success for yours truly!

Oh and my daughters will get to go to Alton Towers as half term - just need to work my magic at hotel re 3 guests not 2...

Thank you for those kind words.

Similar in many ways, yes.

In truth, Rob & his Team design the UKPC structures, & we think it best not to interfere too much, he knows what he is doing.

It's unlikely we'll get Tighty Updating I'm sorry to say, but stranger things have happened, & fingers crossed, we'll do occasional Updates in the future. For one thing, he was wrecked by the time UKPC finished, the workload is immense, the final day was a 17 hour unbroken shift for him, coming on top of 4 long days before.

Fingers crossed you cash again, that'd be real sweet. 

I think it is a great idea to have 1a the previous weekend. Brilliant development to help get people with a job into bigger tournies!

Genius - so simple, so good.

This.

This and the turbo day 1s that start on day 2 are absolute genius.

The biggest barrier for recreational players (and I'm sure the pros too) is not money, it's time.

exactly

both proper innovations, extremely popular and rightly so

Hi,

1) Does anyone know what is happening if someone wins multiple seats? Can you cash the second one out, or is all dependent on different things?

2) Are there going to be sats on Party? As this is a Pokerstars event..

Thanks

am double checking the answer to 1) rather than put an answer up then have to change it


2 yes there are sats on party now

every night for the main event

(http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/includes/tiny_mce/plugins/imagemanager/files/Nic/UKIPT-Sat-Tree-06032015.png)

there are going to be live satellites too

all the festival info is on this link: http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/news/ukipt-nottingham/2450

and UKIPT Mini satellites on party

all info about the mini is on http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/ukipt-mini/2471

a) use a stars seat first if you have won seats on stars/party

b) if you have a second seat, or two dtd seats..use for re-entry or side events at that festival

c) only then can you carry it forward to subsequent dtd events, if you have played the dtd main

d) no cash alternatives

"With DTD seats if the £1million GTE is met then players can transfer to future £1K events* however this isn't recommended that players wait as we won't know until last day 1"

* without playing the UKIPT

including the side events

Are there only ME satellites on 'Stars or are there also some for side-events?

Would I be able to buyin directly for the PLO tourney on 'Stars or is that no longer possible?

https://www.pokerstars.uk/ukipt/ for general info or @ukipt on twitter

Live Events>Europe>UKIPT Nottingham. looks like main event satellites only

today's satellite scheduole for example shows on http://www.ukipt.com/qualify/

buy in info does not specifically refer to the sides http://www.ukipt.com/tournaments/nottingham/

however there is online buy in via the dtd shop at https://www.dtdshop.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=2&category_id=17&page=shop.browse&limit=20&limitstart=20

Thanks Rich.

I'm still a little unclear about using 'Stars funds to buyin as it seem a little ambiguous, saying that you can use 'Stars funds but to be aware that "going forward" this will not be possible due to legislation. Have we "gone forward" yet?

I don't know

i will forward the question and ask

Yeah. We can't use stars funds to buy in anymore.

Couldn't use stars funds for ukipt at the hippo so I assume we have gone forward.

just clarified with Nicola

"You can't buy in for any events via stars as far as I am aware.

 And no they are not running side event satellites"

Any idea if these are freezeouts?

On that basis , I assume winnings will be paid out by DTD and not into a Stars account ?

Thanks if this can be confirmed

they are all one re-load

have sent this question to Simon

Danke

yup they cant pay into stars account. for our own safety.....

?   explain mate please or is it your caustic wit ?   :)

The latter. (nap)

yeh it's another superb government decision to crack down on crime, by removing the electronic trail and making everyone use cash  ;whistle; ;dingdell; ;dingdell; ;dingdell;

answer from Simon

"Yes at DTD

Stars can't pay into UK accounts "

The list of UKIPT Main Event qualifiers is growing with players coming from Big Game's and Online Satellites. Find out how you can join them here.

DTD tend to get a lot of questions from satellite winners about how they use their tickets etc.

they have set up a tab with all the instructions on the the UKIPT Main and Mini pages.

Whose set up will look like this tonight?

Big Game Online Day 1 at 8pm.

UKIPT Main and Mini Satellites

Grand Prix Golden Chip sats.

All on partypoker.

As The Big Game comes to it's conclusion on Sunday the UKIPT Mini gets underway.

live and online day ones on Sunday

Do you know what time roughly the 12.00 Day 1 would finish for the mini? I have guessed at around 8-8.30?

schedule, levels and times are on http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/news/ukipt-mini/2471

day ones are 14 x 30 minute levels, add in 3 breaks and you get 8 hours plus so your estimate is about right

Is there any reason why this is £100+£20 rather than £100+£10?

I just about get why grands prix with all of the added booty of golden chips etc. charge an inflated rake but I'm finding it hard to understand for a UKIPT event.

UKIPT MINI ONLINE DAY 1's ARE IN THE LOBBY

you can reg now.

The first one is tomorrow at 9pm

Number of people who will play because of £200k guarantee >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Number of people who will boycott because of 20% rake

They have some hefty satellite overlays to cover.

They take a big risk with the guarantee so if they hit it they get the big reward with the high rake.

Personally I'd much rather play a £200k guarantee with 20% rake than a £20k guarantee with 10% rake. That's because I hardly ever play so the juice doesn't really affect me. It wouldn't be sustainable for regulars trying to make a living out of it but I don't think that's who these tournaments are aimed at anyway.

It's a £200k tournament with 27.5% of the prizepool used for seats in another tournament. For travelling recs who may not have the freedom to play two weekends in a row that's  a factor too.

What happened to the DTD policy of deducting 10% of tbe buy in as rake?

I know exactly what you're saying and I understand it won't suit everyone but at the end of the day people will vote with their feet (or their £120).

This tournament will hit the guarantee and some lucky punter will walk away with £40k and a UKIPT seat for their £120. If it was a £110 comp with a £20k guarantee then some lucky punter would walk away with £5k for their £110. I know that EV wise and mathematically it doesn't work out better but I know which tournament I'd rather play.

I don't think the winner will be taking away £40k. Probably £30k.

I don't think you can correlate the difference in guarantee with the size of the rake in that way.

Just looks like it's £20 because enough people will pay £20 and that's DTD's business decision to make. Just as they decide how big they want to make the guarantee.

For me, it's the 'seats included' thing that deters. Mostly from the perspective of the funds being taken out of the prize pool, but also for the way it artificially introduces another bubble period.

I think the seats thing is quite quirky David, however the rake is another matter for me. It's actually playing on my mind a little if I want to pay the extra bit of money because we already have the other costs as it is, will definitely be a last minute thing for me.

there is a $25 Last Chance Satellite for the mini day ones at 7pm-5 seats GTD

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CB1VbMaWEAEyQOS.png:large)

Also worth noting that there is another £5k of rake coming out of the prizepool via those seats too.

Before each UKIPT Mini Day 1 - last chance online sat at 7pm 5 seats GTD

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CB1vuF5WMAAI-_y.jpg:large)

and at 9pm tonight, the next UKIPT Mini online day one

(https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xft1/v/t1.0-9/19328_815846768510144_1548210607247415990_n.jpg?oh=aa30bdbef612818bb3e63e5fc4cbbca2&oe=55BB007D&__gda__=1437778939_0f577705c98c2968d3f2f99c698aeb74)

I can't comment on that generally David, but in negotiatons & discussions with Rob as to the Sky Poker UKPC in August, we will be using the traditonal model of buy-in + 10% reg fee, i.e., £1,000 + £100. 

20 rake from a 100 buy in is high but it doesn't stop people playing The Goliath either, they love it and think of the first place prize.

You can't class seats as part of the prizepool as rake. It is equity. If you win one of those seats and have a decent track record or good friends you can sell some of that off anyway and exchange equity for cash.

Hi

The High roller satellite on Monday the 13th is £300 +£30   could somebody let me know the format please eg freeze out or re buys + add on cost  and number of chips for each option

thanks in Advance

hi i have emailed the question to Simon/Glenn and will post their reply

Same policy re if they hit the gte the 1k can be carried over?

Confirmed.

Okay cheers for finding that out Rich

Are the online ME mega-sats freeze-outs?

i know its a busy image (easy to miss all the info) but i think we can see "Freezeout" on the flow chart on the right hand side for the semi final, final and turbo into the final.

(https://scontent-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/11012089_826250054134473_2803605800311043147_n.jpg?oh=1f87648c0b48900135e3abcf57caf1a2&oe=55E5647F)

Thanks Rich I am due for an eye-test :)

I doubt freezeout actually means freezeout though. It'll be re-entry for quite a few levels I would imagine.

I hope I'm wrong and if I am I'll 100% be playing but I'd be amazed of this is a true freezeout.

Book Matt in while your at it Ralph

I'm sure the small print at the bottom says

Online Satellites are Freezeouts (Re-Entry Permitted)

Not that it makes a difference in the overall scheme of things, but I've FYP, a few stacks were in the wrong days :)

If a tournament has re-entry then how can it be described as a Freezeout. It simply isn't a freezeout. Seems nonsensical.

So if you already have a seat via PokerStars, assuming the guarantee is met you could use your first £1,100 ticket won via Party for 3x £330 shots at the UKIPT Cup (for example).

That is correct yes :)

Glenn

a re-entry is not the same as a re-buy

you can have a freeze out with re-entries

but it does seem a little counter indicative (if thats the right wording)

Counter-Intuitive

but yes, your explanation is correct

By the same token a re-entry tounament is not the same as a freezeout.

A "freezeout" does what it says on the tin.

These should be described as a limited re-entry so as to avoid misleading anyone.

How many re-entries are allowed?

Everyone is aware what a re-entry is.
How can you have a freezeout with re-entries? A freezeout means once you are out that is it - go home, go to the bar, play cash, but whatever you do, there is no way to get back in that tournament, you have been frozen out.

Might aswell argue chicken is a type of vegetable that would make just as much sense.

What time will play finish on Sunday for day 1 of the main?

3pm start

12 45 minute levels plus 3 20 minute breaks is 10 hours

so 1am

Its now in the lobby - the massive Sunday Mega Sat for 50 x UKIPT Main Event Seats..

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CCLVn8SW8AACPp9.png:large)

You can do this even if the tournament doesnt make guarantee.  The only way you would lose your seat by not playing it is it you hadnt entered the tournament at all.  If you play it because you won a seat elsewhere, you wont lose your DTD/Party ticket

^^^ This is how I thought it worked, but Glenn's previous post seemed to suggest otherwise.  Hoping this is right, as I'll play more of the sats over the weekend.

Awesome if true, although during the UKPC people were opting not to enter the live sats as were told their seat would be forfeited should the guarantee not be met. Regardless it won't be an issue this time due to the fact Stars are behind it and they'll comfortably field 1,000 players.

If I end up with more than 165 token that I don't use, what can I do with it?

sorry if answered before...

There are more 165 satellites coming this Week to use them in, i gather

ok thanks Tighty

what happened to the 8pm $33 feeder ?  seems like it was cancelled at 7.55 - wasnt the penny roll meant to fee into it ?

Didnt get the 51 minimum runners!  :'(

Pancholi leads after first of four starting flights

UKIPT Nottingham's £1,000,000 Guaranteed Main Event Begins

Nottingham, UK - 12 April, 2015

Today saw the start of the £1,000,000 guaranteed UK & Ireland Poker Tour £1,000 + £100 Main Event in Nottingham. A mixture of PokerStars qualifiers, live satellite winners and those simply keen on playing for one of the UK’s juiciest prizepools took to the tables at Dusk Till Dawn for ten 45-minute levels.

An unusually work-friendly Sunday start means that those who took part in today’s Day 1a (and survived) will be returning next Saturday to rejoin the fray on Day 2. The Main Event also allows eliminated players fresh starts in the form of a single daily re-entry, and the option to play all four starting flights, the next being Day 1b on Wednesday 15th April.

Among those who won’t be needing another bullet are today’s chip leader Sunil Pancholi who with 170,800 leads the surviving 15. Closest behind him (admittedly not that close) are Kyriacos “Greek Jack” Dionysiou (111,800), Sandor Csaba (109,100), Jeremy Betts (108,400) and Ben Martin (106,100).

Click here for the end of Day 1a chip counts from 50 total entries.

http://www.pokerstarsblog.com/en/blog/ukipt5-nottingham-end-of-day-1a-chip-cou.shtml

The UKIPT Main Event action now pauses until Wednesday’s Day 1b, although there is a satellite to Tuesday’s £3,000 + £200 High Roller event tomorrow at 8pm, alongside a £50 + £5 (1R) Main Event satellite. Click here for the side event schedule at Dusk Till Dawn this week. Further £100 + £10 satellites are scheduled at 7pm and 10pm Tuesday to Thursday, with bonus 2pm sats on Wednesday and Thursday only. The 7pm satellites all guarantee 20 seats.

Live coverage on the PokerStars Blog resumes on Tuesday at 5pm as focus shifts to the High Roller event, but reports on today’s major action can be perused at leisure here. Keep an eye on the PokerStars UK & Ireland Facebook page for galleries, side event updates and more, and interact using #UKIPTNottingham.

all details on http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/ukipt-nottingham/2450

Can seats won on sat can be used for future events at the club if player not able to attend the event that the seat won for? Thanks

Same as the UKPC, this is only permitted if the event makes the guarantee

As this won't be known until the last day one, its highly recommended to play rather than lose the seat

How do we go about registering for a particular starting day using an online seat please?

Also, I don't want to seem like a dick and I do appreciate that 50 seat guarantees are ludicrus but what happens to the extra £62.15 I/everyone effectively won by winning my seat. It seems a bit sneaky/shady to me at first glance if I'm honest.

first question is answered in here http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/news/ukipt-nottingham/2450#sat-winners

second question i have sent to Glenn who has seen it and needs to pass it on and up to DTD Management.

Thin I won a seat brag and $2 balance brag all in one post imo ;)

Just read that due to numbers in the first day UKIPT main (day 1); they restricted the levels to 10 from the original 12.

Presume, all main day 1s are now 10 levels?

What are the plans for day two, in terms of number of levels? If there are 10-12 levels, we should finish at a time where I can manage the 100 mile drive home and get a decent night's kip, else it's tricky, 14+ levels and I'll need to get a hotel.

To paraphrase... Any advice on finishing times for Fri day 1 and Sat day 2 UKIPT main, appreciated.

Ivan Luca Victorious in UKIPT Nottingham High Roller Nottingham, UK

(https://scontent-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xtp1/v/t1.0-9/11150241_951497958224269_5044239331703998792_n.jpg?oh=fd478697ac693c99a4ceeb0a67231ab8&oe=55A90394)

Nottingham, UK - 15 April, 2015

A heads up battle between two live tournament heavyweights, Ivan Luca and Matas Cimbolas, brought the £3,200 UKIPT Nottingham high roller to a thrilling conclusion tonight. Eventual champion Luca outlasted a field of 51 to claim the title and £46,800 in the early hours of Thursday morning. Luca has had what you might call a pretty good start to his year, winning €397,000 for finishing runner-up in the €10,000 High Roller at EPT Malta, bringing his total live earnings to over $850,000.

Cimbolas, too, has an astonishing track record here at Dusk Till Dawn, having won the WPT £3,000 event back in November for £200,000 and followed it up with a High Roller win at the UKPC in February (for £60,000) and a 4th place finish in the UKPC Main Event (£55,000). It was only last month that he banked another five-figure score, €40,265 in the WSOP Circuit Event in Marrakech, and will be adding the £33,750 runner-up prize here to his list of cashes.

Day 2 brought back 21 players, led by Felix Stephensen, whose 145,000 chips took him all the way to the final, where he busted in 6th (£9,660). A third of today’s returning players were guaranteed a portion of the £148,410 prize money on offer, but that meant the fight to the final table grew in intensity as the levels wore on.

Among those falling shy of the money today were Team PokerStars Pro Liv Boeree, UKIPT5 London champion Rapinder Cheema, Chris Brammer, Ian Simpson and last year’s EPT Grand Final runner up Jack Salter. Ludovic Geilich was the bubble, finishing 8th and promptly jumping into Day 1b of the £1,000 + £100 Main Event (for which 7th place Bryn Kenney just missed out on the late-registration period, to his chagrin).

While Day 1b of the Main Event came to its conclusion, the High Roller played on, with a rail of spectators appreciative of the level of play on display. After UKIPT Season 3 Leaderboard winner Tom Hall hit the rail in 4th, it was Brazilian Thiago Nishijima who held the shortest stack (15 bb). He moved all in over a preflop raise from Luca with A c-2s, and was called by Luca, whose K s-Qh spiked a pair on the river to bring them to the one-on-one stage of the tournament.

It took three hours of back and forth play before Luca’s stack drew definitively away, and a just out-pipped A-8 (all in preflop vs. A-9) saw Cimbolas fall in second.

Full High Roller payouts:
1. Ivan Luca - £46,800
2. Matas Cimbolas - £33,750
3. Thiago Nishijima - £21,500
4. Tom Hall - £16,300
5. Mitch Johnson - £12,600
6. Felix Stephensen - £9,660
7. Bryn Kenney - £7,800

Politics Student Max Ladbrooke Takes Overall Chip Lead in UKIPT Nottingham Main Event

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CCqSZDnVEAAF5m6.jpg:large)

Nottingham, UK - 15 April, 2015

Max Ladbrooke, 21, has turned a last-minute £200 live satellite win into the overall chip lead in the UK & Ireland Poker Tour’s Nottingham Main Event. The £1,000 + £100 Main Event (which guarantees a cool £1,000,000) is a tournament Ladbrooke describes as “ten times bigger” than any event he’s played before, but his rise to chip dominance today belies his self-description of “a fish on a heater.”

The Main Event continued today with its second start day after a pause following Sunday’s working week-friendly Day 1a, and looks set for two more busy flights before the combined survivors play to the money on Saturday’s Day 2.

Day 1b brought 115 fresh players to the felt, including end-stage bust-outs from the High Roller such as Max Silver, Craig McCorkell, Ludovic Geilich and Jack Salter plus Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody and over a dozen PokerStars online qualifiers. Of these, 13 took the re-entry option when their first stack of chips didn’t do the job, bringing the total number of entries to 128.

Just 48 were still at the felt at the final whistle, with Ladbrooke the chip leader. His stack of 190,900 tops Day 1a’s leader Sunil Pancholi’s 170,800 and puts the 3rd year politics student at Keele University in pole position – for now. Also sailing through Day 1b with healthy stacks were Simon Higgins (151,800), Iaron Lightbourne (144,000) and Leo McClean (119,200).

Nottingham, UK - 16 April, 2015

Day 1c of the UK and Ireland Poker Tour’s Nottingham Main Event saw the total number of entries into this £1,000 + £100 tournament more than double. Players from all over the world have come to Dusk Till Dawn to try their luck – and potential four days’ worth of starting flights – in order to secure a portion of the £1,000,000 guaranteed prizepool on offer here.

The player who navigated the choppy waters of Day 1c most successfully was Alexander Harriman, bagging up 205,900 chips after 10 levels of play. He joins (actually, surpasses) Day 1b’s chip leader Max Ladbrooke and 1a’s Sunil Pancholi at the top of the counts.

Also bypassing tomorrow’s Day 1d and heading straight to Saturday’s Day 2 comfortably stacked will be John Keown (155,800), David Urban (147,700) and Demetrios Nikolaidis (144,000), plus Irish trio Brendan Olidi, Chris Dowling and Rory Brown, all on around 135,000 apiece.

David Clarkson Leads Last 37 in UKIPT Nottingham Main Event

Nottingham, UK - 18 April, 2015

We’re deep into the money positions in the £1,000,000 guaranteed UKIPT Nottingham Main Event, with 37 remaining after a dramatic Day 2 saw reversals of fortune galore for some of the biggest – and smallest – stacks at its outset. All Day 2 survivors have now locked up at least £3,760 in prize money, but tomorrow is when the cash payouts ramp up.

Leading the pack overnight is David Clarkson with 1,715,000 chips. There are eight players returning with seven-figure stacks, among them Richard Jones, last year’s Irish Open winner Patrick Clarke, Marc Hunter, and Ben Vinson.

Amongst those exiting before the money were the overall start-of-day chip leader Alexander Harriman, Chris Dowling, Marcel Luske and Gary Clarke while the pure bubble spot fell to Chuck Khuu. With his elimination, the remaining 151 players were guaranteed at least £1,760 for their efforts.

Leaving with a cash prize but no shot at Day 3 were PokerStars Marbella Festival champion Ludovic Geilich (78th for £2,280), runner-up in this week’s High Roller Matas Cimbolas (68th for £2,710), Neil Raine and Ben Winsor (busted in the same hand finishing 55th and 54th for £3,200), and UKIPT4 Edinburgh champion Dean Hutchison (47th).

Join the PokerStars Blog from noon tomorrow when the Main Event will play down to a winner, who’ll capture the UKIPT Nottingham Season 5 title and £182,000.

There’s a trio of side events taking place while the Main Event plays to a conclusion tomorrow, starting with the final Day 1 for the £300 + £30 Nottingham Cup at 11am (a turbo, to fit in before Day 2 which kicks off at 2:30pm). There follows a £150 + £15 PLO Double Chance at 1pm, and a £100 + £10 Super Deepstack at 3pm. Visit ukipt.com for details.

Are 'Stars doing any live streaming or just a blog?

not aware that there is a live stream, the PR above does not mention one

The final day's play at UKIPTNottingham has just started. Who will win the £182K first prize?

 Follow the action here http://psta.rs/1zk1aps

A very long time since I've encountered someone called Algernon.

Also, goooo Eso!

Algernon Buchanan is a DTD reg I believe. Would probably be very good for the local poker economy if he were to win.

GLGLGL Eso.

GL Stato too

Redraw at 24 in the UKIPT Nottingham Main Event - RIchard Jones leads with 2.2 million chips.

good luck typhoon Trevor Pearson

Typhoon Trev makes the final nine.

That is back-to-back finals in UKIPT Nottingham ME.

Fantastic achievement.

In other news Tikay and I did not make b-t-b final tables in the PLO :( although Maria still has a chance of achieving this rare feat and Eso is still in trying to avenge his bubbling in this last year.

Gooooo Maria and Eso  ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader;

Gl trev and also to Sunil Pancholi who's a Leicester reg. Really nice guy- he also won the low bad beat jackpot at Dtd a few weeks ago

Wow nice back-to-back result Trev!  ;applause;

Sam Mitten-Laurence Wins UKIPT5 Nottingham Main Event and £182,000

Nottingham, UK - 19 April, 2015

(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CC_3HS1UUAA58KQ.jpg:large)

The last, greatest share of the £1,000,000 prize money in the UK & Ireland Poker Tour’s Nottingham Main Event has been awarded, along with the Season 5 title to 24 year old poker pro Sam Mitten-Laurence, who takes home £182,000. His last remaining opponent Trevor Pearson was, impressively, a finalist in the UKIPT Nottingham Main Event last year, and went one better than his third place finish (worth £89,900) in 2014 today, capturing the runner-up prize of £110,000.

The final table also featured the 2014 Irish Open Champion Patrick Clarke and four PokerStars online qualifiers, one of whom had won his seat via a £1 rebuy satellite (8th place finisher Luke Perrott who turned £5 into £17,320).

The £1,000 + £100 Main Event attracted 1,026 entries, with players representing 41 countries, and has run at Dusk Till Dawn since April 12th, its innovative extra start day on Sunday enabling those with working-week commitments to return for Day 2 the following Saturday.

The final table alone awarded over half a million pounds. To reach it, however, the hopes of victory of 29 players had to be dashed, and these included the start of day chip leader’s. David Clarkson knew how it felt to go from robusto to busto in a UKIPT Main Event, having done just this at UKIPT5 London in just two hands, and this time around he suffered a similar fate. Some cracked kings and a run-in with Kestutis Kristapaitis’ aces and he had to settle for 31st place and £4,330.

Also finishing in the money pre-final were Kristapaitis himself (24th for £5,090), last season’s UKIPT Leaderboard winner Dara Davey (21st for £6,070), UKIPT4 London champion Sergio Aido (16th for £8,070) plus the official final table bubble, 9th place finisher Adam Kossew, who picked up £13,540. Juan Benito who finished 22nd deserves an honourable mention for having also made the final table last time around, finishing 6th for £38,400.

The final table line-up (in seat order):
Krzysztof Jacyk, Poland, PokerStars Qualifier, 2,830,000
Kuljinder Sidhu, United Kingdom, 5,010,000
Luke Perrott, United Kingdom, PokerStars Qualifier, 2,310,000
Patrick Clarke, Ireland, 2,770,000
Sunil Pancholi, United Kingdom, 2,305,000
Sam Mitten-laurence, United Kingdom, PokerStars Qualifier, 3,570,000
Trevor Pearson, United Kingdom, PokerStars Qualifier, 975,000
Richard Jones, United Kingdom, 4,570,000

Although Kuljinder Sidhu started with the lead, it was Sunil Pancholi who turned the tables early on, outflopping Sidhu’s pocket kings with A-J to double through and take it from him. Richard Jones put a stop to Pancholi’s ascent with a double through of his own (aces vs. A-Q), and after Luke Perrott busted in 8th place, Pancholi found himself in turn short stacked and shoving with Qs-Ts. Sam Mitten-Laurence called with jacks and busted him in 7th (£24,200).

In quick succession Sidhu (6th for £32,000) and Krzysztof Jacyk (5th for £44,700) were eliminated, the latter doubling up Nottingham final table veteran Pearson before leaving the felt. Meanwhile Sam Mitten-Laurence was creeping up on recently ascendant chip leader Patrick Clarke, finally winning two big pots in succession (the latter a race with A-Q offsuit vs. the Irish pro’s pocket deuces) to bust Clarke in 4th (£58,100).

Third place finisher Richard Jones, as at home on the virtual felt as the live, lost a crucial race against Mitten-Laurence and gave his opponent a 3:1 chip lead vs. his final opponent. Jones’ previous tournament successes have included a 19th place finish in last year’s WCOOP Main Event (he plays under the moniker 'dickler1' on PokerStars) and a 3rd place finish in the Super Tuesday for just under $55,000.

The heads up battle was a brisk affair, with Pearson unable to overcome his chip deficit and finally getting his stack in preflop with A-J, only to find Mitten-Laurence with A-K. One hold later, and they were both off to collect six-figure prizes from the cash desk.

Mitten-Laurence had qualified on PokerStars for £160, clearly at home online where he has made his living since he was 18. Since then he's clocked up over 22,000 tournaments on PokerStars under the screenname 'KevinThorn'. "I've really enjoyed the whole week, especially since it's been so long since my last live tournament," he said. "It's been a great experience. I definitely plan on playing more UKIPT events, and I'll probably travel for some EPTs too."

Final Table Results:
1. Sam Mitten-Laurence - £182,000
2. Trevor Pearson - £110,100
3. Richard Jones - £77,400
4. Patrick Clarke, Ireland - £58,100
5. Krzysztof Jacyk, Poland, PokerStars Qualifier - £44,700
6. Kuljinder Sidhu, United Kingdom - £32,800
7. Sunil Pancholi, United Kingdom - £24,200
8. Luke Perrott, United Kingdom, PokerStars Qualifier - £17,320
