sorry if. it came across like that,but it was just a question

[Waz1892]

Played the second live day yesterday, had some of the regular players on my table and enjoyed the experience and probably the most competent player was a young lady who's KK beat my AA (quads in the end) not sure how far she got but deserved to run deep.

One thing that I feel I have to mention - there was a player on my table who was playing his first live game, he was forgetting to put his blinds in, antes in and not realizing when it was his turn to go...he gave the impression he was a bit spaced out but I doubt he was I believe he was more a bag of nerves...some times we all need to remember we have been there. Some of the tuts and sighs and comments he got were not fair. I can guarantee if he took that experience away he won't ever come back.

Nothing vicious or vindictive was said it was more frustration from some of the more experienced players...we all want to win but we also all want to play...sometimes a little thought before we react is all that is needed

totally agree in general with your comments, esp more so in these type of comps, as some qualifiers will be from online sats so again maybe not used to a) level of buyin, b) actually playing live.  I've only myself played double digit tournaments, so certainly still reasonable inexperienced, and in general DTD is quite welcome when it comes to other players less experienced, but i have felt on occasion it to be very clique to coin a phase - which to a newbie is daunting in itself.

That said plenty worse places for the cliqueness, and I hope these carry on as its a great competition and the online qualifying works really well - but then i'm currently bias at the moment!

Ditto

Was talking to a random at Bradford naps

He said it was quite intimidating when he went and didn't enjoy the experience.

But I love dtd

A reminder for this week onwards

Summer Opening at DTD

Please find attached the PDF for Summer opening at DTD http://www.dusktilldawncasinonottingham.com/schedules/jul-2013.pdf

From Saturday 13th July we will be holding two flights for the £100 Deepstack, 1pm and 5pm. Players who bust out of the 1pm have the option to re-enter into the 5pm which has late reg till 9.05pm. We expect the 1pm flight to finish around 10pm giving travelling players the option to drive home and get plenty of rest for Day 2, instead of having to spend additional money on hotels. This means that over this Summer period our opening hours will have been extended by an additional 10 hours, which puts a strain on our current management and staff resources. We have therefore decided to close on our lowest footfall evening, Wednesdays, which will allow us to spread the extra weekend opening hours and maintain the high standards that our members expect. This will also help us with the planned re-fit of the VIP area, bar and restaurant.



So Online Day Ones from 8.30pm with feeders and Last Chancers from 4.30pm, then the Live Day ones from Friday onwards

Yes, we will be keeping the £100 Deepstack GTE at £50,000 for the next 2 weeks, despite the overlays. These have not been helped with the weather, even though another heatwave has been predicted this week the GTE will stay the same, we published a 'series of events' so the headline buy-in and GTE cannot be changed.

We have added a live Day 1 Thu at the Club for our locals plus the extra Day 1 flight at 1pm flight on Saturday, hopefully these will get us more unique players, the re-entry factor in this event has been between 1.22 and 1.29 so far, so most players are just taking 1 bullet, which is fine, we did not budget for more than this.

I have has many interesting comments about this new format, many players preferring to play a set amount of levels and a normal prizepool payout on Day 1 (min cash x 2, around 12.5% of the field), but equally I have had players saying they like playing down to 10%, paying the bubble 'money back' and the 3x min cash on Day 2. However, I think it's fair to say that this new format has not INCREASED the number of players, in fact there is an argument to say it has done the opposite, however, the weather makes it really difficult to draw accurate conclusions from this series of £100 events, EVERYTHING is way down live and online, not just for DTD, but speaking to our partners, there has been 30%-40% drops everywhere, this is annoying because we really did this to trial a new format at the Club.

On the plus side, our footfall always drops 25-35% over every summer period since we opened, this year we tried to do something different instead of just sitting back and saying 'weather, holidays and WSOP' and watching the paint dry, so thanks to those people who have supported these £100 Deepstacks, there are 2 more left so please make sure those with £100 online tokens do use them up:)

Cheers for all the feedback,

Simon
