WPT at DTD. £6k High Roller and £2k six max, 1.0- recommended for punters only

[easypickings]

I am going to play two events at the WPT Nottingham, which are:

£6,000 High Roller, Monday 17th November, 2 day event (7% reg fee)
£2,000 No limit six-max, Friday 21st Novmeber, Day 1B TURBO, 2 day event (10% reg fee)

There is a caveat to this- I am actually playing both events for free. I won the $15k leaderboard package at the Sky Poker six max UKPC week in August, and am able to use it for $15k worth of buy-ins at the club, which will cover these two events. With Blackpool, Amsterdam and GUKPT London other events in November, it seems a good idea to make some money back on these hefty ones.

I see no problem with selling for events where I will not pay the buy in, as there is definitely no way at all it will cause me to play differently. However, if people disagree and think it is wrong to make a profit before an event I have effectively won a freeroll satellite into, do let me know straight away, as it is not a situation I have been in before.

I am selling at 1.0 because the value in the high roller is of course sparse, and with no previous record of how these kind of events are, I would recommend it more of a punter's buy for a sweat.

However, I came 3rd  of 60 runners in the previous (£3k) high roller at DTD during the Sky Poker six max week in a stacked field. I would anticipate that this high roller field will be easier than the £3k six max, as there are plenty of satellites, and the core of really strong online players who played the previous one may be priced out to some extent by the higher buy in.

I am going to play the new-fangled turbo day 1B of the £2k six max event, which follows directly onto "day 2" the same day. This initial turbo structure is of course another reason for the face price of 1.0.

I am looking to sell up to 20% of the package for both events. The prices are:

0.5%- £40
1%- £80
2%- £160
5%- £400
10%-£800

Payment by bank or Skrill (i.e. if it's OK, not Stars)

Going to have to be limited day one report sorry, as got home just in time to fit in the magic eight hours sleep before the day two turnaround. A lucky and really good day, I bagged up 193,000 from 50k starting stack.

47 runners including re entries so far, so it should just make the £300k guarantee.

Wow, insane two pots. Folded jacks twice. Both right, but both would have won humongous pots both time. First hand of the ft, it's against ak and qq. Queens says he  would have folded if id shoved, would have won 750k pot (2.5m in play). Second is against qq and kk. Turn jack. Would have won 800k pot and knocked two out
