Small cash in tonights £1200 mini B/H, was 12/12, shoved utg with A5, then lost connction. When I got logged back in, I was out, checked hand history, got re-shoved by KK then AA.
Well done on all your cashes and enjoy your time away kiwi.
Just wondered what peoples thoughts were with this team diamond as are we not moving away from what the DTD is about a bit of fun or is this just a natural development of a growing site?
Ps sorry to disappoint anyone your stuck with me in TPT not thinking of jumping ship lol
Good luck to all TPT players taking part in Cardiff ME tomorrow, i shall be doing my best to run deep and hoping to take this event down for the whole of TPT - running well live at present,(18 tournaments / 7 cashes / final tables: lets hope this continues tomorrow.
Good luck pokey TAKE IT DOWN FOR TPT. Do we have any other TPTer's playing Cardiff? MrB glad you decided to stay with us I don't think you need staking for a 2 quid tourney by Team diamond lol. When I first saw this I thought staking players only happened in live games or in the meta online tourneys but obviously not. Have you seen the post where they lay out the basic staking format? Who the hell wants staking for the 2 quid deepie or the Orfordable? As a player who has made a nice profit playing at those levels why would I want to give away 40% of my winnings? What happens when I hit the lean period where my biggest cash in a month was about 7quid? I reckon I would be out on my a r s e. And yes MrB if you joined you would have to start at my level lol. If you are being staked can you stake other players or will there be a core of original members who do the staking? If it's the latter then the only risk they have is at the lowest level as their stake amount will only increase when the player they are staking has won the staker enough money to move up a level. I think you can expect Team Diamond to go through more team sheet changes as players are dropped than Man Utd playing in the Carling Cup. And for that reason as Duncan Bannatyne says " Aam Ooot"
Edited to say: the only plus point for the player being staked is that he can get started without any bankroll at all
TPT PRIVATE GAME Still awaiting P.M. confirmation from Sky Dave but it's provisionally set for 9pm 2nd May. Regular Holdem with a £5-50 buy in. I'm afraid it will now be Monday before I can confirm it but everyone on my list of friends will get full details in a P.M. and I'll also post it on Facebook

I also see it in the same way the only time I would consider any backing would be for very big buy events i.e in the 1000s as why would a winning player want to give away any earnings as you can bankroll yourself.
The way I look at it like everything in life no free lunch in life and unless a deal benfits both sides it always leads to conflict by the party felt hard done by. I just hope players that join go in wth both eyes open and not be blinded by being bankrolled. Which leads back to the orginal problem to make being backed work you need to be playing above your buy in bankroll and this structure even at top tear in my opion is not close, but I wish them luck and will be interesting to see how brutal their team gets lol

Team TPT as far as I can tell from sharkscope is full of winning players. Winning players can bankroll themselves. The fact that we are winning players is reflected by the amount of times we have won the DTD team league.
Do I need bankrolled, certainly not, but good luck to those that go down that road.
Great time was had meeting the sky team in Cardiff earlier today, the gent himself, Tikay was a pleasure to meet and chat to, along with many of online friends - unfortunately two bad beats later and this was the end to my SPT in Cardiff on this occasion. Happens to us all, but great as i have said to meet such a wondeful group of people and hopefully we can have more TPT playing in the next one in Blackpool.
Bit gutted to be out after Level 3 but played my hands correctly and as we all know, "It's POKER" - was unable to meet young Richard as he arrived a little late (but glad i finished higher than him lol), Sara looked as lovely as ever and all the big names, Julian, Jen, Ryan aswell as Dylan12, ThommyD were all their either playing or commentating on the tables.
Great atmosphere, just wish i had stayed last night and met more of them, seems the party went on well into the early hours and many players were suffering today whilst playing.
Great setup - great bunch of people! Well done to sky for the opportunity of offline events.
Good luck to all left in the tourney, see you at the next one hopefully.
