The partypoker Millions at DTD £6m GTD (£1m 1st place)

[pvas2]

Hi Tighty,

Not that I have 2 Day 1 seats, but have a couple of questions if you don't mind;

1. If you qualify from 2 Phase 1's, can you play 2 day 1's and potentially take the biggest stack through to day 2?
2. If you qualify from 2 Phase 1's, can you play 1 day 1 and keep your £5300 seat for other unrelated tournaments in the future?

Many Thanks

Jamie.

1 Yes

2 If a player makes Day 2 from a phase sat and has a £5K seat that isn't promo we are happy to go tourney dollars

1. I was led to believe that if you qualify through two phase 1s you will only be able to play your larger stack. Can you really play the big stack first and then crazily gamble a bowl stack on the second day 1 in the hopes of getting more?

2. I think you answered a different question to what he asked. If you qualify through a phase 1 and have a stack of exactly 1mil, your equity will be £5300 (ignoring rake, whatever). If you have any other stack it won't be worth £5300 obviously. A 50k chip stack is not worth £5300. Tighty's answer to the different question makes sense though. It seems fairly obvious with the above said that you will not get any sort of refunds for the question you asked or be able to use the chips for something else unrelated due to equity being different.

Our Sochi event is in full swing and today's players will take to the felt to play Day 1D - cards are in the air at 13:00CET

After a very successful Day1C (525 runners) yesterday we are well on the way to hitting the huge $1 Million GTD...in fact its trending towards $1.2m+

Thanks both.

Is it true to say then that the only reason to try for x2 Day 1 seats, is to be able to play the biggest stack of the two, making the other Day 1 seat and smaller stack redundant?

I've got another question for Glenn on similar topic.

I've got a Day 1 seat £5.3k via Party leaderboard promotion. What happens if I play a Phase 1 and make it through to Day 1, Day 2?

I guess if make Day 2 via a Phase 1 then the leaderboard seat I get tournament $ for? And if bust Day 1 stack gained through Phase 1 then I use the leaderboard seat to re-enter?

Leaderboard seats we have no control over regarding the terms and conditions set out before the promotion. Nearly all promotional tickets have the rule that the first one must be used for the target event. IF you then wanted a 2nd stack I'd advise you use the Phase 1 stack as the re-entry option.

[GlennDuskTillDawn]

To generalise the reply regarding other questions.

The only stage you cannot re enter back into this event is if you make Day 3. By reaching Day 3 you are in the money.
Ive ensured the stack entry rules are up to date here which explains more.

They were giving $675 buyins make if you made it through phase 1. I think to the first 100. (Or first 100 since the latest announcement) How many spots are left?

About 50 and going at about 6-9 per phase 1

Cheers Rob was worried about this - booked a week off and hotel,  would be a bit boring to have to play cards at the other places in Nottingham when the fest is on if I crash out early.
