I just thought £100 would be a happy medium. I am not rich (trust me) but as a special I think £100 could cater for any player. Its a night out, and I know even if I go for a drink in Birmingham it would cost me more than that. Online is slightly different as ther are so many comps to choose from. IMO live is worth it.

I am sure dik9 would put on SNG's and small stakes cash games to make it a day to remember for those with all ranges of bankroll. It needn't just be about one freezeout.

A good hotel deal would be nice too.

very few people spend £100 on a night out and a £100 tourney when you're up against seasoned world class pros will not represent a good value game. £100 is enough to rule out a sizable portion of Blondites

Dependant on numbers I will sort something out. Side games of course. The freezeout was just a suggestion. I will run a poll once people are interested.

£100 is quite alot to some people maybe it could be a double chance freezeout so if you run kings into aces 1st hand it doesnt ruin your night. £50 is ok as you could also have some sit n gos. but to be honest i wouldnt want to lose £100 then go and play £50 sit n gos but if i lost £50 then i wouldnt mind playing them. does that make sense Huh?

If it were a freezeout it would be double chance, as obviously people will have travelled. Knocked out first hand is a biatch.

Double chance


Basic version you start with 5,000 chips...if you lose thenm at any point in first x levels you get a second chance and another 5,000 chips. If you haven't needed them at the end of the x levels, you get them then

Other versions...you have the option to take your second helping at chips at the start, or say when you are <50% of your starting chips


As has been said...you travel hundreds of miles for a freezeout and find KK vs AA first level....you're miffed...double chance would attract more players

Spot on. Let's try making it available to all if we do it.

Great idea, but would prefer it was a £50 freezeout, especially as it will be just after xmas.
