Official ISPT Wembley thread: DTD partner with ISPT and guarantee first at €1m

[mike27]

I was similiar to mumbles glad to make it through but only got a 24k stack,was really in between goin for it or just settling for a seat and going to wembley being totally card dead made the decision for me but still got like 100 bbs i think so plenty of play.On a side note where can we see all stack sizes that are through on all sites even the frenchy ones,see if its worth forefeiting,cheers

Details of the few! qualifers so far, were on the "old" ISPT website......but can't seem them now, as obviously DTD have re vamped the website.

Congrats guys on getting through.

Hi Guys

Play Day 2A with NO EXPENSES to get to Wembley!!!

If you make it to Day 2 and choose Day 2A (Friday 31st May) we are running a FREE return players coach from DTD...just like the FA cup final Wink

So if you're worried about your expenses worry no more!

If you make Day 3 you will be close to the money so that trip down on Sunday 2nd will be worth it and you'll only need a hotel for a few nights!

Cheers Nicola

PS Stacks will be up soon!

Rob Yong's latest blog

ISPT Week 1 Update

http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/blog.php?profile=4&id=416

A very interesting read. In it he talks about

- His own expectations for the Day One numbers both live and Online

- Prospects for Direct buy ins to Wembley and DTD's efforts in this area

- His disappointment at the response from the Grass Roots poker players


Comments welcome.

For those wanting to see current qualifiers from other sites there's a link in Robs blog, I was a bit surprised at how few there are.

Rob seems fairly confident on a good turnout for day two direct buy ins so let's hope the numbers end up some where near to they need them to be.

Worth reading

Great blog by Rob........lays all the cards on the table

The only thing I would have liked is that once qualifed for Day 2 (not happened yet   )....... is the ability to play the below "direct Day 2 sats"..... and so try and have the insurance of a re-entry on Day 2B.

Satellites Directly into Day 2 {42 players into Day 2 who receive average chips)

Genting/DTD Online   Online sat Fri 24th May                      10 x Day 2 €3000 Seats + £400 expenses (£200 + £100 1R)

Mint Casino London    Live sats Mon 27th–Thu 30th May    12 x Day 2 €3000 Seats (£50 UL RB / 3 seats per night GTD)

Hi Guys

FULL ISPT CHIP COUNTS can be found on The Hendon Mob - http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/ispt/

Smurf it might not have been updated when you looked earlier so should be 46 more showing now!

This is where chip counts will be displayed, please bear in mind we double/triple/quadruple check chip counts before posting them up so there is a slight delay each week! We are also asking players to confirm them via email to ensure we have no concerns at Wembley - If you've made Day 2 please check your emails and let me know your Day 2 choice too

Feeling more real now we have players through to Wembley...hoping to see a rise in numbers this week as we get closer!!!

Good Luck Guys

Nicola

If you have multiple day 1 tokens, play a day 1 and make it through can you still win day 1 tokens in the last chance sats and get cash for them? ie you win the day 1 token having already made day 2 with no plans to forfeit the day 2 stack.

No

Once you make day 2 your in the tournament at wembley any further attempts to win extra day 1 seats will result in the chip forfeit.
It really does pain us here why on earth would we want you to continue to take away funds from the prize pool we have guaranteed in refunded day 1 seats once you are through.
We want other customers to benefit from the added value not a single person just taking it all away and cash in refunds.
We will police this very strictly please do not attempt other day 1 seats.

If you play day 1 and go through with for example 30k, can you select day 2b, then buy in again for another day 1?

-if you then make it through again with only 15k do you forfeit your 30k stack, or can you choose?

-and can you play more then one day 2? ie play the 15k bust, then play the 30k?

play both day 2's as a direct buyin?

apologies if this is somewhere in the 50+ pages...!

If u make day two then play another day one you forfeit your stack - so if you don't make day two on your second attempt you are out

If you play day 2a and bust out you can buy direct in to day 2b for 3000 euro - this is the only way u can have two shots at day 2

Once you are through with a stack to Wembley thats it

The moment you play another satellite or a Day One you forfeit that first stack

You can't take two stacks through

You can play 2a with your qualified stack and re-enter at full whack into Day 2b if you bust.

ok cheers for that.

I'm still finding it absolutely amazingly difficult to pin this thing down properly, it seems to have been made as hard as possible to find out, clearly, when various days are. For example, on http://www.dusktilldawnpoker.com/ispt/ it shows live day 1s as 11th, 18th & 25th may, but on the online client, it shows live day 1s from 1b through to 1e, on 26th and 27th. So which is one is correct, and why arent they both matching?

Secondly with regards to the direct day 2 sats, I only found out by sheer chance that Mint in london was running live sats to this, no mention of it anywhere on the ISPT website at all, and I still can't find if they're running live sats to day 2 at DTD at all.

Well done and all that for picking up the ball, and excellent player communication here, but the websites are appalling. I'd love to see a simple list of dates for ALL day 1s both live and online, and ALL day 2 direct sats!
