Happy to be made to look stupid, as I thought 600 was about what it would get.

Got one thing right though as I was one of the first few who entered, so feel slightly less stupid now! I shall be there on Friday for the start, really looking forward to it Smiley

Well done to DTD, fekin amazing!

Can DTD publish the payout structure in advance given you know there are 900 runners? Be nice to know, as the plasmas only ever show 1-9. And this page doesn't really cover it. Ta.

pull up the tournament in the schedule page and "view result" for a fair idea

Didnt i read it was £13k gaurenteed 1st prize?
That payout shows £10k up top.
Granted thats still awesome for a £50 comp, but pretty sure i saw that above.

Anyone confirm?

Don't think they ever mentioned a guaranteed first prize.

The prize pool was guaranteed at £40k meaning an estimated first prize of £13k

Looks a fairly flat payout to me though I must say. Would much rather see less paid and more money up top.

I know Rob mentioned this comp being the equivalent of a £500 buy in 80 runner comp. Why not base the payouts on 80 runners so that it really is?

Now that would be fun.

Doubt it.  The cash tables are already 8-max and just sit at one of them with someone who's an uber-nit and someone who goes for a fag every few minutes and there you go - a 6-max table!

i remember in the old tribeca days when tourneys just had 27 or 18 players that pay out regardeless of field size.

Surely a man of your gambling pedigree would agree?

Scrap the prizes from 28 out, complete waste of time.
Use that money to bulk up top 9.

Im still determined to instigate a comp with a reverse payout structure one day.
