All new £300 Deepstack from June!

The monthly £300 Deepstack is Dusk Till Dawn's Signature Event, and has established itself as the best medium buy-in monthly event in the country
300 DeepstackUsually held on the first weekend of the month, this official European Ranking Event regularly attracts over 300 players from across the country, and often Europe.

To maintain the prestige, appeal and interest in the event, we’ve decided to make a few changes, and give our number 1 monthly tournament a bit of a facelift!

£300 Deepstack Festival, from June:

Extra Day 1

Day 1a will take place on the Friday, Day 1b on the Saturday, followed by Day 2 on the Sunday. Having an extra Day 1 offers players more choice and flexibility, and caters for those who would previously have been unable to attend due to other commitments on the Saturday.

RE-ENTRY

Showcasing at the June £300 Deepstack, our new RE-ENTRY system allows players that have been knocked out of the tournament to buy back in for the same price, and take another shot at the prizepool, adding to it as they do so! For the £300 Deepstack, only players from Day 1a will have the option to re-enter. This must be done into Day 1b, the following day. For the Incredible 100 on the Sunday, all players have the option to re-enter provided they can do so before the end of late registration (level 6 / 5:15pm). Players who RE-ENTER will lose 1 small and 1 big blind per level, plus 1 round of antes if they enter in level 5 or 6.

£100,000 GTD

Inevitably, bigger guarantees attract more players. We're hoping that through a combination of a higher guarantee and a RE-ENTRY option, we’ll attract more buy-ins and smash the guarantee every month. The biggest £300 Deepstack prizepool was £137,700, won by Paul Bowser in November last year. If just 5% of those players re-entered, that would have been an additional £13,500 in the pot! Multiple satellite winners can use their winning seats for buy-ins and re-entry.

LATE REGISTRATION

Players will be able to register up until the 6th level on both Friday (Day 1a) and Saturday (Day 1b) which will be 9:30pm. Late registrations will lose 1 small blind and 1 big blind per level, plus 1 round of antes if entered in level 5 or 6.

Not sure on these changes. If it ain't broke- don't fix it. Think moving to two day 1's is a mistake. I like the atmos of 300 odd players on the Sat. Can't see the Friday being too popular

Not that it matters to anyone except blonde, but its a pain from an update planning point of view. Expenses higher, for a start

I like the ambition though. Surely though everyone will just play Saturday? Or will some of you play Friday and do family stuff on the Saturday?

How many would pony up £300 for a re-entry?

Rubbish decision imo. I wouldn't play the friday, knowing that i may have to go back on the sunday. And obviously wouldn't re-enter. Would be good for some people though.

Can see this going really deep on Sunday now. 2 day 1's plus 6 levels late reg plus re-entries? Obv depends on runners but the days of midnight finishes on the Sunday just died I think...

I imagine most will just play the Saturday. Can't imagine the Friday being too busy. There's a few who might like to play the first day then re-enter but for most I reckon it'll be just the same and a bigger guarantee.

blonde could just not bother updating the Friday I guess.

Think it's a brave effort to try something different.
Not sure how it will go, but good luck with it.

This.

Agreed - why criticise for trying something new and different that might improve it. Let's wait and see, it could be great.  The only thing that might work against it are the summer months tend to be quieter on the UK live poker scene.

i don't see why they dont do re entries for on the day as well, would make the whales play redic loose and make the game much more lively early on, meaning more value for those playing tight. Also would a third re-entry be allowed?
