Multi Prizepool Poker (MPP™) at DTD

[DTD-ACES]

Will it be obvious who is in at which level?

very much doubt it. Looks like fun tho and will be interesting to see if it gets many more runners than the combined runners in the comps ran at present. My initial thoughts would be that the £25 players won't want to be playing in a comp that has better players who play in the bigger buy in comps.

We are hoping that the increased prizepools especially for the lowest buy in will not put off the P1 player and in theory there will only be a few P3 players as a %age of the field. Also, you know the best way to improve your game is to play better opponents

Benefit is that they get to play against the 'better' players without having to pay more for the pleasure.

Couldn't have said it better LOL

Answering these in order so their will be some duplication.

sounds like a great new idea.

I really hope this works as the potential is huge and it enables big guarantees without re entry or reloads.

This is pretty genius, I hope this will be as big as I think it's going to be.

Definitely going to be a lot of fun on the final table of one of these, working out the value of knocking each player out depending on which prize-pool they're in for.

Love the innovation, sounds like a great idea. Would like to see it with maybe a bigger spread in buyins, e.g. Maybe the deepstack could be 50/150/500. I think that could be very interesting.

and it this very reason why I will do all I can to play in these.  Its perfect for the low-buy in players.

Did I miss the answer to whether it will be clear which buy in people are playing?

yeah that would be a corker. With £25/£50/£100 on a school night would you have a rough idea of the spread of players. 40 x £25  30 x £50  25 x £100 gets you to the £5k gtd and looks easily manageable.

this already kills dead the concern I had. Do the lower buy in players want to play up against the better players in the comp. evidently they do. This is exciting and could get the club buzzing.

Will this last long term though?

Can't imagine the lower buy in players will win that often

I take it that this tourney is going to be a weekly tourney

[DaveShoelace]

Is there a cap on the number of players per tier or is it first come first served?

tell me a final table you have ever seen that has been stacked with good players. I think you will be suprised to see how many of the £25 players make the final table. Starting to get real excited about this comp,

I think running it as a one off thing is better then a regular tourney

I'm prob wrong but I just can't see it last long

ICM this, -EV that all are very important for those that really understand it. I however, only have a basic grasp of these so I have to take the tourney at face value. It seems to to me to be a very exciting and very different format to the normal style of tourney and I think it will attract a lot of players to it. The smaller stake players like myself will be attracted by the chance to play the better players and vice versa, the better players a chance to play against a lot of players they should have an edge against whilst still  having a reasonable return because of the higher buy-in prize pool.
 DTD should be congratulated for introducing new and innovative forms of poker. Hopefully this will encourage them to trying new things. (Live multi-table cash games anyone??? )

I'd deffo put the effort into schleping the 2 hours up to DTD if work,wife and kids allow.

Great boost to the confidence for any of the £25 buy in players who go deep. Plus a great encouragement to buy in at the higher level next time

Oh, and Robert Baguley will have a field day
