Hopefully it will sell out, but I am not holding my breath, I realistically am looking at 60-80. To be honest I have had loads of interest in it, but only a few have dug up the £1k we are taking registration now at cash desk, card room or by cheque(as long as it is recieved before 1st Sept).
I really do hope it is a success as next year will be fantastic. But I can't tell just at mo. Although people who have been here think it is the best venue around!! Judge for yourself!!!

Sat for the £1000 this Wed(tomorrow) 24th £50 rebuy Super satellite.
Also Friday 2nd sept at the Shaftesbury £50 rebuy Super satellite.
One table sats available sun, mon, tues, weds at 2am

Fascinating Thread!! Me being just a simpleton, I had a discussion with 3 top players, 1 said he wanted all of the prize money another said 50% and the other wanted a more flatter structure completely. I left them arguing between themselves as a deal had just been done LOL.

As this is a poker Forum can you, the poker player, choose what percentage you would like to see go to first place. 300 votes and I will change my structure accordingly. 1 vote per player ONLY PLAYERS PLEASE  No casino staff!!

9.01 ORDER OF SHOWDOWN.
Upon completion of action on the final betting round, the dealer shall ask the players to show their hands. If more than one player contests a pot through the final betting round, the pot will be awarded to the best hand pursuant to the rules of the game upon a showdown of hands. If there has been a bet but no raise on the final betting round, then the player who made the bet shall show his hand first, followed by other players still contesting the pot, in clockwise rotation. If there has been a bet and raise or multiple raises on the final betting round, then the person who made the final raise shall show his hand first. If there has been no bet on the final round then the showdown begins with the player who had the obligation of first action on the final betting round--the player under the gun in draw and board games or the player with the highest board in stud games.

9.02 PROBABLE WINNER AT SHOWDOWN.
In the interests of efficiency and speeding up the game, a player who is reasonably certain he has the winning hand should turn over his hand immediately, regardless of the order of showdown. If a player does so, then other players at the showdown who can beat that hand should also turn their hands over immediately.

9.08 REQUESTS TO SEE A CALLED HAND.
Players shall not be entitled to see a called hand except in cases where there is a reasonable suspicion of collusion, in which case the floorperson shall be called over for examination of the called hand. This is contrary to the traditional rule. However the traditional rule, which was designed to prevent collusion, has not served its original purpose. Asking to see called hands slows down the game, causes resentment and impedes action. In high limit games, the right to see a called hand is limited to situations where a floorperson is present for the request. The purpose of this rule is to protect against collusion, not to satisfy a player's curiosity or get a read on a player's style of play, or worst of all, to intentionally irritate a player. Abuse of this rule is very bad for poker as it kills action and causes resentment. A player who was involved on the turn may request a hand be shown, this is entirely the choice of the player involved but continuous requests to see hands shall be considered a breach of poker etiquette and may be grounds for removal from the game. There is no right to see a called losing hand under any circumstances in head's up play.

These rules are "CARO AND COOKES"

2576  Poker Forums / The Rail / Re: Iron chops it at Walsall on: August 22, 2005, 05:51:25 PM
Of course there is a get out clause LOL. What about 10th? 2% here.
2577  Poker Forums / The Rail / Re: Iron chops it at Walsall on: August 22, 2005, 05:45:12 PM
Advice from you poker pro's please.

Lets say 100 people How many would you pay out and what would the % prize structure be.......?
2578  Poker Forums / The Rail / Re: Iron chops it at Walsall on: August 22, 2005, 05:37:42 PM
Dani, (truce?) I get the same impression from our players that they are attracted by the carrot being dangled (ie. the 1st prize)  We give 39 % for 1st what does your place do?
2579  Poker Forums / The Rail / Re: Broadway Casino - dik9 on: August 22, 2005, 04:22:42 PM
Glad you enjoyed your night out, nice meeting you too.

Yes there are plans to go 7 nights with 2 freezeouts £100 on a Thursday and £50 on a saturday. This won't be till after September though. Lets get the festival out of the way and we'll go from there. All depends on the amount of staff we have at the end of September. As I will only have comps where I can supply dealers, this is the reason why we only have 4 a week at the moment. One of these freeze outs may be a shoot out comp.

Regarding parking it is the safest car park in the Midlands and 2nd safest in the UK.

With Thanks

4 events starting 7th September
 
7th Weds 8pm
£100 NLHE 1 rebuy or top up
 
8th Thurs 8pm
£500 NLHE 1 rebuy or top up (2 day event)
 
9th Frid 8pm
£300 NLHE 1 rebuy or top up (2 day event)
 
10th Sat 7pm
Main Bracelet Event
£1000 NLHE freezeout
(2 day event)
 
This Festival may compliment the £1000 star city event on the 7th if people wish to stay in the city for a few days.
 
If people wish to book hotels just mail me with your requirements and how much you wish to pay and I will find the best deals for you.

We are nothing to do with "star city" BTW LOL
We are an independent casino, If some of you remember the "old" Rubicons e.g. Coventry, Northamton, Wolverhampton These were owned by Monte Shine. The Broadway and the Shaftesbury are owned by his son Martin Shine. If you old timers remember the "old" Rubicons then you will remember they were very poker orientated. We are situated about 400meters from the Rainbow Casino.

Mr. Moves the £1000 chip structure will be 10,000pts on an hour clock
                     £500 (+1 rebuy) will be 5000pts(10,000) on an hour clock
                     £300 (+1 rebuy) will be 3000pts(6,000) on an hour clock
                     £100(+1 rebuy) will be 2000pts(4000) on a 30/45 min clock

                   (brackets are potential chips with optional rebuy OR top up) STC

If the mini fest works well the next festival will go massive! Advertising wise we are mainly doing it word of mouth. As I believe in the poker community the fire spreads quick. Therefore we rely on good service and facilities. Let the poker players advertise it themselves and if we do not deliver then its our own fault.
BTW we will never charge registration fees whilst I am in charge of the card room, I think its a disgrace to make the players pay, as the whole idea is to bring customers in!! And we supply dealers for ALL games. Shocked
