stars or tilt need to sponsor this badly, always wanted to go, no sats tho

The tournament pretty much sells out every year without an affiliation and I think the fact its a stand alone tournament is one of the reasons its such good value.

Very few Stars or FT Pros make the journey (altho obv some of them are value too).

Traditionally lots of Germans, Austrians and Dutch who only play 2 tournaments a year (this one and the big 7 card tournament in Baden) show up for this and there are huge numbers of players you will not recognise playing a 6k event.

I know John Duthie tried really hard to get this onto the EPT but they said no, Holland Casino is governemnt owned so taking the Stars sponsorship money is not an issue.

All in all, with the added money they usually give (don't know if that's going to happen this year), very generous comps and all the terribad players it really is the best tournament in Europe of the year.

Stick up a staking thread Rick, it really is worth going,

How severe is the rape rake on the cash games during this festival!?

Few of us thinking of going over if its not too redic. If it is, might go and sample the other delights.

The big games are fair value in Amsterdam.

The small games are really soft but the rake is really high.

Bustoed end of Level 5.

Was on annoying table, no good players but a tighter bunch of rocks you'd struggle to find. Could never get anything going.

Was down to 10k from 15k starting.

150/300 EP opened for 750, CO called, I called in bb with JdTd.

Flop KdQh7d.

I checked, opener bet 1000, CO made it 2250, I shoved.

CO tanked forever before calling with AK.

Disappointing turnout here with only 250 runners, maybe Amsterdam os finally sufferng from not being on the EPT, still lots of value in the tournament though.
