so say a miracle happens and i make a final table at DTD which is live streamed and i refuse to show my cards... what punnishment could be levelled against me given that i havent signed a release or waiver

It's a good question, one for Simon and team. Will ask when I am next in

On a related issue, when we went from 17 to 16 and streaming last Sunday, we had an Anon in the field. He gave permission to go named and shown. Would have been interesting if he insisted on Anon, or even if he could have insisted



p.s GUKPT London underway today, will put daily round ups on here too starting tomorrow. Many blondes playing


in the UKIPT we had to sign something to say our images etc could be used. i asked what would happen if i didnt sign it to which i was told by one of the staff that i would be disqualified.... doubt this would have happened!  i am not saying i wouldnt agree just want to know what actual sanctions there are in such a situation.

Camel on feature table, and not showing his cards. Wink

Awaiting bouncers to arrive and chuck him out the window.

At DTD your phone is taken off you if you are on the feature, and access to the feed is blocked to anyone in the building



Is this really true?

There's no way I'd let anyone take my phone. There's far too much private information in there.

They can ask me to switch it off and not let me look at it whilst I'm at the table but other than that it's mine and nobody's getting their mitts on it.

If it's in the Ts and Cs can you let me know because I'd rather not play than have someone take my phone.

Yea this seems like the worst of both worlds.  Players should either be sequestered to completely level the playing field, with no information for anyone. Or it should be totally open and available to all, again levelling the playing field.  The middle ground is the least fair as players who surreptitiously get info from the stream have a huge advantage.  Which is ironic because I'm sure that's what Rob was trying to avoid.

You could always leave your phone at home whilst winning 5 figs ?

My understanding is you put your phone in a sealed bag. Get knocked out, get phone back in same sealed bag, which you can see has not been opened

If I am giving my phone to any one at Dtd it better come back with some naughty pictures on it.

Really shocked by the small field for the EPO. I accept you can't run everything at Dtd but the first year it ran at Dtd was amazing.

online : I don't think the Genting ones really got the numbers to run. Lock poker ran one GTD seat on Sunday's leading up to it. Some other sites were also trying sats I think.

Not sure how the live sats at the Fox went, but they were Guaranteeing about 10 seats in the week leading up.

No Keith wasn't showing.
 Also happened with some other guy when they changed feature table.....and on commentary they said although it's in the t&c's to show........the floor were allowing players not to show to the camera, due to the amount of money at stake.

Oh really. Always thought I would not show but honestly don't think I would have the balls not to show. I have seen a couple of tweets asking for people to message hands. Bit of a farce but like George said earlier, if everyone is doing it...
