What went smoothly? what would you like to see to improve it? will you be back? etc etc

Stats wise it sounds like an unmitigated success. I hope it's enjoyable for those playing and it goes well for DTD...

So if a £100 player wins outright they can scoop like £7k? Is this right?

No. That's not right. 3k odd.

Right what happened on the bubbles? Any info? Or just chaos?

Do the screens show 3 payouts etc...?

It's all about the software I reckon.

If he wins whole tourney he will scoop right?

So 9 of the top 16 were max buy in players, even though pool 3 only accounted for 63/177 players. Obviously lolsamplesize but will be interested to see if this trend replicates over time.

[smashedagain]

3rd, 4th & 6th were just in for the £25. A great performance and looks like there could be more of these comps in the future.

Have to say that the payouts look spot on too, PJ in for £100 and min cashed p3 and picked up £250 from all 3 pots.

Was nice to see such a busy turnout for a Thursday. Cash games rammed as a result. Can't really fault the tournament overall, seems to have worked nicely. If I were to gripe for me I felt that the 10k stack and lack of re-entry didn't give enough play. I guess I'll have to learn to nit up a bit if i'm going to play it regularly. Interesting to see the 100's doing so well. I think there was a noticeable difference between the buy in levels, and wouldn't be surprised if the pattern continues.

What time did the comp finish?  Surely 10K is enough for an evening comp with the structure it has?  Also, DTD needs to get their money back from tournaments (that are run pretty much as loss-leaders to attract people into the club to play cash, play the pit games, and buy food/drink) - so having re-entry isn't really in anyone's interest.

I think it's a fun little idea, but playing it didnt seem like anything different, I guess you need to go abit deeper and play around the bubbles of each prize pool to fully 'experience' it.  It's not something that would interest me again. Romanello prob not e bringing a coach full next week either. Hope it's successful, I just don't see the advantages of it for the higher buy in level.

[Ebeneezer]

Great atmosphere and the place was buzzing. Should take Blueace's advice and nit up a bit as played a bit loose and went out quite quickly having got a bit over-excited with   on a flop of     (against pocket 8's). I wasn't the only one though. One of the Welsh contingent arrived late at our table, had bought into P3 at £100 and was out in two hands!

Would have loved to have bought back in but had to play cash instead but managed a decent score.

Back next week - you bet!

[YEAHMAN123]

Played a 25 after my exit from the 100 and a fella sat at my table was openly telling the table how he was planning to buy 2friends into the lower levels and play the top tier himself and collude with them.

This did strike me as somewhat ridiculous for the following reasons:

1 saying it on the table, just lol

2 mentioning the actual names of the players he'd be buying in

3 assuming he'd actually be sat with the same 2 people ling enough to be able to collude without getting spotted by other players/dealers/floor etc

4 lol

lol I hope you had a quiet word in the ear of the td to keep an eye out for those names when MPP begins.

Not being funny but dodgy betting and plays happen everytime I'm there between friends but not much can be done can it lol

Good report from the writer, who played it
