Qualify for SPT Final via DYMs?

edited August 2011 in Poker Chat
   Entry     Win    Profit Cost of out
£22.00£40.00£18.00£22.00
£33.00£60.00£45.00£15.00
£55.00£100.00£90.00£10.00
£82.50£150.00£157.50-£7.50
£100.00£200.00£257.50-£57.50
Would anyone who would be interested in a DYM qualifying tournament for the SPT Grand final post here, to see if there would be any interest in qualifying via DYMs.

We would require 96 players starting at £22 with the winners on each level going through to the next round.

The cost of an out on any level is as above, with an out at level 4 bringing in a small profit.

I don't know if there will be sufficient interest, but I'm sure if there is Sky could be persuaded to organise it.

    Hi 67Bhoys,

    The SPT final can be bought into directly (open now I believe) so there is nothing to stop you doing this on your own to raise enough cash without having to set anything really complicated up.

    Thanks JohnConner,

    Your right, I just thought it would be nice to have a tournament structured for qualifying through DYMs.  I for one would like an event like this rather than doing it alone.  Also I think it would be a bit of fun, plus to do it alone I would have to beat all you expert chappies at the higher levels.

    now that my eyes are uncrossed, here I am at your post!

    not sure how much interest there would be in a tournament for this but I, for one who is very keen to get to Nottingham, can see that your spin-up idea could be a way of getting there without playing the tremendously difficult semi's. I've played 5 semi's now and still not got a seat in the grand final.

    I agree with JohnConnor that we could all maybe use this spin-up idea to buy in direct. Why did I not think of this before ?????

    Great idea

    Lorraine :)))))x

    Thanks Lorraine, basically if you enter a semi for £24, and there are 30 players, you have to beat 27 of them to get through.

    With my idea, you would face 5 players at each table, only having to beat 3, which is a total off 15.

    The added bonus would be that if you get passed the 1st level, you would actually get some of your buy in back, or even in the latter levels make a profit.

    Much better than bubbling in the semi and getting Nada

    I was in the semi to try to win a seat but seeing as the bubble paid 22 squids short of the tourney buy in it seemed rude not to buy in direct.
