|

Hi Guys
Dusk Till Dawn will be hosting the UKIPT April 11th - 16th.
2 years ago we set the tour record with 650 players at a £500 buy in.
Last year we retained the record at 1058 with the same buy in.
This year the buy in has increased to £700 and we have agreed with Poker Stars to add a 3rd Day 1.
We fully expect to beat last years field and to ensure this each Day 1 is capped at 450 with 6 levels of late reg.
We expect to sell out each day and couldn't resist guaranteeing the event at
ONE MILLION POUNDS
Day 1b last year we had 88 late reg, i expect up to 200 queuing to buy in on Day 1c this year.
Day 1c has only 70 seats left with 4 weeks to go, if you want to make sure you have a seat please buy in early, i will update this thread every few days with how many seats are left in each day.
Also, if you have any questions regarding the event please put them here.
Cheers

Are you going to have more levels than normal on each of the starting days to ensure that you don't have more than 450 people coming back on day 2 so you have room?
Probably in for this, should be good. |

Hi Guys
We are on target to hit the £1,000,000!!!!
Momentum is increasing for the UKIPT, the Friday and Saturday 10 seat guaranteed satellites this weekend at the club had £1500 overlays but todays 10 seater only had a £700 overlay and tonights £50 5 seat made the guarantee.
With Friday Day 1c already sold out and only 20 seats left for Thursday Day 1b we have had to cancel our Mega Sats planned for Weds / Thu, we will however still be having a £100 Mega Sat tomorrow and Tuesday at 8pm here at the club with 20 seats guaranteed in each, we have had players buy in from several European countries and with the alternates allowed for 6 levels each day we could smash the guarantee, remember you get your full 15,000 stack so even in level 6 will still have 50bb, someone is going to win a huge first prize for their £770!
Cheers

Hi Guys
Here at the club we currently have 86 of the 154 entries for the 20 seat guarantee, late reg is available up to 11.20pm as we have 20 min levels tonight.
The final 20 seat guaranteed satellite is at 8pm tomorrow night.
Reception and online support have been inundated tonight with players wanting to buy in to the UKIPT, day 1b should sell out tonight so get online and buy in via the DTD shop for Day 1a or come and pay cash at the club tonight or tomorrow or you will be an alternate for what will be a historic tournament.
Cheers

Stevie Watts promo'd you a bit on the Irish Open coverage - sounded like a great tourney option - if I lived near I'd be there  _________________ "I find it's best to start the day with no composure and then you've got nothing to lose." B. Boatman

Hi Guys
If today is anything to go by we could hit 1700 players in the UKIPT! We added 3 tables to the original 50 cap and started with 477 and got another 55 players in as alternates, tomorrow and Friday we will have 55 tables at the start so 495 per day + alternates for 6 levels so already we have 1522 players in the comp for a prizepool of £1,065,400 already in excess of the £1,000,000 guarantee, we ca...n seat at least 200 alternates a day during the first 6 levels, we should get another 50 tomorrow and Friday we expect at least 100 so minimum prizepool is looking like £1,170,000.
Cash games are rocking, several £1 £2 No Limit £2 £2 / £5 £5 PLO and DC and a Hi Roller £10 £25 round of each with players buying in for £10,000+
Will let you know what the latest numbers are after level 6 tomorrow, really proud of the whole team here at Dusk Till Dawn for achieveing this amazing feat.
Cheers
