GRAND PRIX GUILT TRIP

To hit the magic 3000 target, we need 1040 runners for the final day 1 of the Grand Prix this Sunday, a valiant effort by all of the DTD staff bearing in mind we increased the target from 2000 to 3000 this time round. Whilst I feel confident there is more chance of arriving at DTD tomorrow and seeing 10 pink elephants in stockings and suspenders flying above the car park singing Wonderwall than achieving the 3000 target, I would like to officially ask for a “bit of help” here from the DTD regulars/any players than know me - there are times when I need your support and this is one of them #yesthisisaguilttrip

The final number in the 12pm flight was 409

145 are left in Level 11 of 16 today

Julian Lefevre the chip leader with 350,000

--

In the 5pm flight there are 215 in in level 2. I thought it would be much busier than that

totting up the entries are at 2584 needing 3000 to hit £150,000

l guess we might end up £10-15k short, though the next few hours will be interesting to see


registration open til 10.15pm

"Missed the 3000 Grand Prix target by 147, ended on 2853, with over 700 players coming through the club's doors today.

Thanks for all the support from players and staff, these GP's are quite expensive with all the pennyrolls, 10 seats chip races, and then there is Golden Chips themselves, each Grand Prix costs us over £60,000 in staff costs and promotions so it's important we get as close to the target number as possible, of course, we don't need to target numbers in the 000's but that what the GP is about.

 thanks for turning out. Cheers rob"
