Just seen the payout structure.

Big sigh that you have to beat 893 people to make more than a bag Sad

If i havent got 5x average by the first break im off to the cash games.  

You need to beat a lot more than that to win 20x your buy in at the World Series.

If the prizes don't suit you that may be because you entered the wrong tournament?

You wont be able to see but the first break. Lunch?

Popadopkin, how many we got for this piss up thing. I mean im still game if we have a good few, and are planning on going out when we all bust etc. but just means i need to book a hotel for sat night.

How about Frankie n Bennys before hand. Food will only soak up beer mid session. Plus dtd food menu is a bit poop. Meet there say 12? or later if you want, 25/50 level can gtfo Cheesy

At the moment is seems like it might be just the three of us getting on it.  Sad Sure we can recruit some more on the day.

Mmmmm, I am happy with 12, but will double confirm when I wake up Saturday morning. On a mad one Friday night.

Stop at mine if you wish.

Mattu 12 o'clock lunch?
Anyone else?

I can appreciate not accepting alternates to control numbers, but would you resell seats of non attendees after say 2 hours of no show?

And ftr, yes my plans have now changed and I can now make it but I didn't buy in!

Reselling seats would assist in ensuring the record is broken, and I'm thinking Friday. ;0)

Bump this question - do dtd have an official line yet?

why would it be any different to any other tournament? you don't sell someone's seat just cos they've not showed up after 2 hours

This.

Also how would it affect the record?

The record stands at 832 or thereabouts. There's 900 registered hence the record will be 900.

If they don't show up I'm pretty sure they still count.
