Proud to be one of the first club sat winners.
Massive buzz and great atmosphere around the club with everything that's going on. Wp
well done mate .....nice one!
Yes really pleased. In the space of two days I get a mention in Rob Yong's diary and lildaves blog. Life's complete
Plus the missus has put the new straighteners on to the barnet and given it some new shine and lift. WAL.
Errr yeah. Am defo going through the mid life crisis. Wtf is she doing mentioning stuff like that. May just turn up at the UKIPT in leather trousers

I have to say that I'm very disappointed that PokerStars are no longer running the Sunday satellites with packages guaranteed. Their emphasis seems to have switched to the UKIPT Dublin already. Take tonight for instance. 8pm 200 euro Dublin satellite with 4 packages guaranteed. At 10.30pm (
) a £70 satellite to Nottingham with 2 seats guaranteed. I know DTD are running satellites as well, but come on Stars, sort it out.

You should give the 77 quid satty a try. Really good structure and makes around 5 seats. Probs more tonight

Fair point. Rob is sticking a long neck out, .....you would have thought Stars would help and push the Million GTD headline and still be putting on package sats.

Erm, Woodsey...................
Okay, I have done a full reconciliation of exactly where we are runners wise, with just over 3 weeks of qualifying left....hmmmm:
UKIPT Summary 15/3/2012
PokerStars Qualifers 316
PokerStars Direct Buy-Ins 34
PokerStars Players 350
DTD Online Qualifers 13
DTD Club Qualifers To Be Confirmed
DTD Shop Buy-Ins 6
DTD Cash Desk Buy-Ins 3 (all into Wed Day 1a with a little persuasion.....thank you James, Mitch & Alex
)
DTD Players 22
Total Players 372
Player Deficit 1057
Thank you for your good luck posts, and for the PM's and even more so for the offers of help... well, apart from lightening your wallet by £770, you can really help A LOT by just getting the word out. There will be people all over the UK playing poker in pubs, snooker clubs, private poker clubs, home games, casinos or even just sitting watching poker on TV, that don't have a clue about this UKIPT the £1M GTE, not everyone reads Blondepoker, plays poker regularly, has a PokerStars account or has visited Dusk Till Dawn.
Help Needed/Begged for/Pleaded For/Required
So, if you have a blog of any kind (especially a poker blog), or a facebook account, or a twitter account, or just post on a particular forum, or work in local/national/any type media/press, you could really help out by posting/writing a little bit about this UKIPT event, also posting a link to our "£1M news item" and the "UKIPT Nottingham schedule" would be
, here are the main 2 links I need as many people to read in the UK/World/Galaxy/Solar system/Universe (is that actually the right order?).

News Item
http://www.dusktilldawnpokerclub.com/news.php?id=2232
After getting my begging bowl out......can I please ask for one more favour............... can ANYONE who takes the time out to do this, either post on here OR if at least PM me through Blonde, so that I know who you are and also be able to say thank you in person one day at Dusk Till Dawn or at least PM you back to say "thanks mate"
Thanks and Cheers Rob
PS. Haha

, I laughed my head off at your
post on page 1 of this thread ref Mr Simon Trumper, because that's actually how he danced when we were at the Irish Open a few of years ago, like THAT exactly,I went out on the bubble when a player flopped the nuts and the conversation went like this;
Me:
I can't fold there
Mr Simon Trumper:
I knew the guy had the nuts
Me:
Simon, at least wait till I get off the table until I get the rubdown
Mr Simon Trumper:
Terrible call, anyone could tell he had flopped the nuts
Me:
xxxx off, don't start with that "Simon Trumper Book of Tells" lecture, hoe the hell did you know he has the nuts then Mr Late Night Poker Champion
Mr Simon Trumper:
It was obvious, when he saw the flop he stood up and did this
(and for the rest of the time in Dublin Mr Trumper did this dance!)
There you go.
Hope you get the numbers you need.

You've got me.
I was going to duck this tournament because it clashes with the Grand National.
But I've got to support a club which makes guarantees like this.
Congrats and good luck making the required number.

They've stopped running package satellites as they have flogged all the hotel room allocation

I would think Stars would only have a certain level of hotel they would work with and would be prepared to team up with in offering a package.
If they offered a package at some hotel which turned out to be a shithole it would reflect badly on them.

I think I'd much prefer to win a seat only sat anyway for a comp reasonably close to home and make my own travel and hotel arrangements. I tend not to enter the package sats for this very reason, unless it's abroad or something.
