    OFFICIAL CORRECTION

    Actually, there is not a soul in the Club, apart from the cleaners & me.

    But very soon it will be heaving. Almost certainly. Probably. Ish.

    Meanwhile, to amuse ourselves, what was this photo about, & can you name the 5 people in it?

    Have you ever had a stack like this?

    The greens are 1,000, purples are 5,000, the "salmon" ones are 25,000.

    Now THAT is a stack.

    You absolutely get the right idea Rob, I was hoping for some comedy replies.

    Nothing THAT daft, though,
    One Direction (or as we call them, 1D) are an all-male combo.

    The doors here opened at 1.30, & there are now 37 entrants, plus a queue to pay in that strethces from the cash desk, right through Reception, & into the Car Park.

    Obviously they are The Honeycombs of " Have I the right" fame, the clues were the female drummer and the 60's attire. What do I win ? :)

    Just like that.....

    Saw an eye-popping 100,000 pot in Level one.

    On a flop of.....

    J-6-5 rainbow......

    A-J man was convinved he was good, & the pot got all bloated. J-J man, meanwhile, was doing the theatrical dwell thing.

    And if A-J man thought he was good on the flop, the turn convinced him he had the stone cold nuts....

    J-6-5-A

    In they all went, & J-J man did not need to do the theatricals this time, & there you go, 100,000 in the middle.

    A blank river sealed the deal, full 2xUp, just like that.

    Thanks Rich.

    There are THREE "Live" flights tomorrow (Saturday) & another one on Sunday.

    Mightr yet be a photo-finish.

    A new tab on the DTD website as chip counts come in from Day 1's of the Mini.

    Easier to see than day by day stuff

    Today's first flight of the Mini closed at 178 runners.

    Simon Trumpet's forecast suggests they were 91 ahead at close of play yesterday.

    He forecast 400 in total today (so needs another 222 tonight), 700 in total tomorrow, & 200 for Sunday's Turbo to reach the 2,000, which excludes the 91 by which the numbers are currently ahead, so there is a bit of slack in the forecast now.

    All sounds very positive for the UKPC festival as a whole. Lets hope the main is just as successful. 

    £2m next year? :)

    Look forward to seeing you.

    The place is rammed full tonight, they have a huge car park & there is not a spare space.

    The afternoon flight got 178 runners, & this evening's flight is already over 200.
     
    Good few "faces" here, too.

    Over 240 runners in tonight's flight, (with 10 minutes left to enter/re-enter), so the day's target of 400 has been comfortably beaten, & the Mini is now around 150 ahead of the Tumpet Forecast.

    Amazing scenes here at DTD.

    The first of today's three flights to the Mini already has 240 entries (including re-entries) after just 3 Levels.

    The place is heaving, the atmo is great.
     
    Gonna be a long day........
  • edited February 2015


    Today's first flight of the Mini attracted a whopping 297 entrants, including re-entries.

    2 more flights today, then a Turbo flight at 11am on Sunday.
     
    The Mini needs 2,000 entrants in total. Think it is on about 1,500 right now.
  • edited February 2015


    Incredibly, today's 2nd Flight has STARTED with 190 entrants, & the queue to buy-in is out of the door.

    Flight 2 could easily make 300 with re-entries.
     
  • edited February 2015


    After just 2 Levels, today's 2nd flight now has 280 entrants, with 4 levels left to Late Reg, so it'll make 300 with comfort.

    There is a third flight at 9pm, then another @ 11am Sunday.

    The Club is rammed full, great atmo.
