Primooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Tikay10

Yes, the ever-popular Primo is THIS FRIDAY.

It's a £15,000 guarantee, so that's tidy money for those who go deep.

Sean Boyce, Jason Barrasford & myself will be covering it Live, from the Studio.

There are Daily Satellites, just go to the Poker Lobby to have a gander.

You gotta be in it to win it. There are 32 Entries as of midday Tuesday.
 
Who wants to guess how many runners this will get?

YoungUn

I'll set the line at 412. No idea why, just plucked a number out of the air

Jeez Tikay, you've got a pretty harsh schedule this weekend, Primo on the friday then straight to DTD for 2pm start on Saturday???? That's pretty brutal.

Depending on how well I run this week I might play this on my laptop from my hotel room in Nottingham

I thrive on it, the more work I have, the better I like it, I'm like a donkey. In fact, I'm due at DTD at 11.30am on Saturday, but I only live 10 minutes from DTD, so no sweat. As soon as Friday night's Show has finished, I'll trundle up the M1, I'll be home before 3, & all will be cool.

So, YoungUn goes for 412, & I'll Update each further entry as they come in. 

I'm aiming lower - 301.

Tikay10

Updated list of entries. (There are 32 as of Tuesday afternoon).

tikay - 301.

Young-Un 412

Side bet on it Tikay? Loser buys t'other a drink at DTD?

(It's my 20th birthday on the Sunday, though, so I expect a drink from you then anyway )

Wow. How brutal. Just have pride on it then

Why do you think so low? 301 barely surpasses the guarantee???

Are we talking about your work ethic here or your ability on the poker table?

RICHORFORD

PS- I reckon 437 for the Primo

supersmith

Bit ambitious Rich judging by previous field, I reck about hmmm 387 to be precise!

Tikay10

Updated list of "estimates" as at Noon on Wednesday.



Orford (must be wrong, always is) 437

YoungUn 412

supersmith 387

tikay (safe & cautious) 301

Keep the guesses coming. Winner gets a Shout-Out on Friday Night's Primoooooooooooooooooooo.

CameronM

357 for me

Grimstar30

Taking into account the big final the day after...

I reckon some regulars will not play so about 369  (that is the 3+3+3 rule of betting)

Dave

skicowboys

Hi Tikay, 322 for me and if i manage to sat in i'll be playing from the hotel room in Corfu, but don't tell the wife she thinks we're going on holiday!

Dean90

I'll go for 368.

hello guys tikay rich and other players i satellited into the primo for the first time i satellited into the semi which cost me £2.65 i won that and then finished 2nd in the primo semi so i am now going to try my luck in the primo itself any tips on how to play this tournament is it fast structure or better to just play conservative to begin with and gradually get busy also i think there will be around 379 entrants

DAVEYZZ

hi i wont be in primo(boo) because i am goint to see jason manford,who?? its him off of 8 out of 10 cats, he is playing in brid and i booked it forgetting about the primo doh!,another downer it that there is a robbie williams tribute first and i have to watch it because the misses loves him

Congrats on winning your £55 seat for £2.65 Mr Rat.

How to play it?

Well, we all play different. 2,000 chips & 10 minute Blinds is a perfectly playable structure.

"Conservative to begin" was your idea, & I'd do the same, (Though I'd be conservative until I exited...), but the key thing is to enjoy it. I don't suppose you've played many Comps of this size, so try not to play scared, just relax, & enjoy the ride. Hopefully you'll wake up in the money.

Good Luck.
