a 10k starting stack is so much more attractive.

Of course it is,
But is impractical for finishing the game in one night
The popularity of the game is making the increase of stack unworkable,
100+ runners regularly

usually a few 10 person tables @ €30 each, winner gets the ticket
and a few @ €60, last two get a ticket.

Also there's the last chance one handed blind omaha!:)

Finished 14th in this for money back.. Played well but lost the races @ the crucial time.

Highlight of the night early on when Scandi lad sits down and announces he is the best player in the place to which the Chief took exeption and rightly Chiefed the mofo and knocked him out with JJ vs A10 on a 10 j 10 x x board. The chief then glowing in recent victory proceeded to donk off his 20k stack and was gone @ the 150 300 level...........

Hand that crippled me: Aggro raises the button 12k @ 2k 4k. 7 handed and I push with 77 playing bubble factor. Me 76K him 59k. He feels he has to call with Q10c. Ya know the rest.. Could of folded I suppose but I wanted the win.

Denise was talking last night about using the next End of Month tournament, which is part of the Fitzwiliam November Festival as a dry run for a 10K starting stack.

Anyway someone from the Fitz will be adjusting the Festival details in the thread I started (I think the Main event is going to an hour clock) aswell.

The Satellites will start Sunday week 8th November (structure to follow)


All positive moves I feel,:):):)
