For me, and I may sound like a pussy it's simply a case of the game being too tough. I was sat in the 1/2 game with you Mitch and terry to my left and I felt under pressure every hand and the game plays huge even at 1/2 with the reggy line up

Personally, I think there is an issue with the limits.. The 1-2 Regs play as though they’re on a 2-5 5-10 tables and the 50/1 regs play as though they’re on a 1-2 table.   I’d like to see DTD eliminate the 50/1 and just have 1-1 1-2 and above, allowing more serious play by both pro’s and recreational players.  People don’t mind losing £25-£50 but do mind losing say £100-500.

Also the tables are never evenly spread, sometimes they’ll be a 1 full table (Which often breaks when they lose 3 players) and another 2 table of 4 and 3 players, why not introduce feeder/must move tables so they always have at least one constant game.   I’ve also noticed situations where 2 people would leave a table and other players at the table would take it upon themselves to move to other tables in the cash game area without notifying staff, killing the game that they were sat in.  There needs to be more control overall..


The reggy feel to the game is something you get in most clubs but the fact that DTD only ever get 1 or 2 deep games going regularly I think you feel it more. 

I could go on about the club layout/player psychology and other things, but I don’t want to bore anyone…

Anyway that’s my 5 Cents..


Bold bit is one of the main reasons I don't play cash at DTD. Just too easy to lose an uncomfortable amount on a given night

It has been changed.

There is an 'entry-level' 50/1 game with a £100 cap.

There is a 1/1 game with a £250 cap (I think?)

Then there's a 1/2 with no cap and the 2/5 also uncapped.

1/2 should be capped to 500/600.  Seeing guys sit down on it with 2 bags is just ridic in so so many ways but of course people just wanna look like kings.

To be fair to George, think he was more put out because he had been bossing the table before their arrival.

Maybe the regs should pay £1 ante per hand to encourage us fish to play, after all they can't just rely on DTD to find the fish for them

No-one sits with 2k scotty that's just a myth. We buy in for 500, very rarely more. Of course the games get deeper and by the end people may be sat with 2k.

I've been on the tables when it's happened a number of times, usually when the games have just started.  Fair enough that may be rare as I will only really play cash there once a month and on a big tournie weekend when the action is bound to be deeper.

I still think its a pretty ridic rule tho and having a max on the game should be there

I agree that the 1/2 should have a cap.  Can be £500, but should be something, imo.
