    Hmmm, with the Celtic Poker Tour competing with the established presence of BigSlick, could there possibly be an overlay at a CPT event?? Surely such a thing is unheard of!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 341 ✭✭Atlantis Casino


    100% of rebuy or top up going into prizepool

    thanks

    100% of rebuy or top up going into prizepool

    thanks

    considering that there is a €20 reg fee, why is 100% of the initial buyin not going to the prize pool?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 105 ✭✭pete1234


    could u post up the blind structure please??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 341 ✭✭Atlantis Casino


    100% of the entry fee, 100% of the rebuys and 100% of the top-ups will create the prizepool. Sorry for any confusion.

    Look get off their backs, they always decide these things nearer the day, sometimes on the day & sometimes when they see how things are going

    A bit like the TV show "It'll be alright on the night" like fcuk it will

    Guys

    I dont understand why people are persisting in 'having a go' at these organisers: as poker players we should be delighted- two well structured professionally dealer dealt games with 100% of monies (excluding reg fees going into prizepool) and one of these games guaranteeing €25k regardless of numbers.:D

    I am a regular customer of BSP and, in my opinion, they have always run a superb show with excellent structures, dealers and prizepools. I have also played a number of CPT events and welcome the fact that they are now striving to match what Big Slick are doing. I hope they continue with dealer dealt 100% prizepool (excluding reg) events:)

    It is a pity the two events clash as I, for one, would love to play both events and now have a choice to make: pay €320 for a shot at a piece of a min. guaranteed prizepool of €25k with many unknowns OR pay €250 into what I know will be a super game but with what is likely to be a higher standard field!

    BTW: where are all the professional dealers going to come from? BSP have their own excellent team: having played in a fairly recent CPT dealered event many of the dealers were as far from professional as the Pope is from scoring Pamela Anderson:(. Carfax's training camps would need to have been very busy since then.

    I talked to mike at c.p.t. and he confirms that the main game is €200+20 with one buyback or top up @ €100, typo by the website people. With over 10,000 visitors to Clonmel he reckons there is plenty of players to go around plus I guess betfair wanted a presence, they are giving C.P.T. A WSOP package and are launching it at the park.

    have to agree competition is good for poker players, so here are the choices we have to make. choice 1/go to big slick event listen to kelly for 3 days but know that this will be a professional run tournment which will improve your poker game overall or choice 2/go to c p t event hope it will be what is promised play for 3 days and leave demented/depressed and find out that your new years resolution to improve your overall poker game has taken a major step backwards and your back to square one ...........the choice is yours

    A couple of weeks ago,Macspower specifically asked (here on boards) if CPT and the Atlantis casino were linked in any way. the reps from Atlantis Casino came on here and stated catagorically that there was absolutely no link between them.(more than once as Macs was pretty sure)
    Then they come back on here and jointly announce a big tournament they are ruinning.(CPT and Atlantis Casino are proud to present etc etc etc)!!
    And people wonder why we have doubts?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,026 ✭✭✭Conbro


    SAY NO

    to Cpt

    Connie,

    have no doubhts that Celtric poker and Atlantis casino are two seperate comnpanies but with the same goal in mind. That is to bring a professional tournament and prizepool to clonmel. It doesnt matter whether their is 20 or 200 people 25 k is Guaranteed.

    Over the 3 days the cash games will be amazing with names already signed up for our 5k min buy in texas no limit 25/50 blinds.

    The dealer will all be professionally trained from the `Atlantis casino Carlow and Clonmel.

    Paul 086 052 0350 for further details


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,822 ✭✭✭tipp86


    Will cash games be raked at celtic poker rates or atlantis casino rates.Im not sure what celtic pokers rates are but from what i hear there pretty heavy rake,whereas the casino rake is pretty reasonable?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 268 ✭✭The Istanbul


    Paul

    A question for you re the guarantee/prizepool-will it all be available as cash or be broken into cash plus buy-in's to other tourneys? how does the WSOP package fit in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,612 ✭✭✭kakak1


    The last two posts in this thread have asked specific questions.

    Any chance we might get an answer, this event is on next Sunday.

    I notice your competitors Big Slick come back almost immediately with a reply, what's your reason for the delay


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 341 ✭✭Atlantis Casino


    I spoke to Mike at CPT , he confirmed that the CPT rake is 3% or less.


    The WSOP package will have no bearing on the prizefund in Clonmel as that package is going to be an exclusive freeroll for CPT/betfair customers in the coming months.

    We are hoping for a great crowd in Clonmel for our 3 fully dealered tournaments and that will be reflected in the prizepool.

    Going by feedback so far we estimate the prizepool on sunday to be over 50 k
