So, I'm thinking of trying my luck in the main even at Dusk til Dawn Nottingham between 4th-8th September 2025. £560 buy-in with £500,000 guaranteed prize pool.

Any idea how much the winner will scoop and who else is going?

Can't find the blind structure for day 2 anywhere, does anyone know what it will be?

Just says the following for every day first day being 40 min clock, 2nd Day being 50 Min Clock, with the final day being 60 min clock.

Level
SB BB BB Ante
1 200 500 500
2 300 600 600
3 400 800 800
4 500 1,000 1,000
5 600 1,200 1,200
6 800 1,600 1,600
7 1,000 2,000 2,000
8 1,200 2,400 2,400
9 1,500 3,000 3,000
10 2,000 4,000 4,000
11 2,500 5,000 5,000
12 3,000 6,000 6,000
13 4,000 8,000 8,000
14 5,000 10,000 10,000
15 6,000 12,000 12,000

Surely that's not correct?

Could do with some clarification!

Think I'm gonna split when I get to final 2 and play for the last 10%.

Do you get a trophy/bracelet for winning the UKPC MAIN event?

How many events would you have to win to secure a sponsorship deal?

I am thinking of going hopefully we can have a beer! They usually have sats on GG poker. My Brother and I get a great flat right near there whenever we go, I will be playing the £50 sats for main event plus a few other tourneys and some cash. The clock is usually 30 mins but I have never played in this particular event. My profile pic is from outside the car dealership over the street from DTD lol

I’ve never managed to qualify but I do usually enter the sats online. Which Grosvenor is hosting? Is it Coventry? I’ve never been I go to Liverpool, Leeds, Hull and Nottingham branches though.

Yeah it always Coventry, which is underneath the Ricoh Arena!
I think it can only be there as they have a licence to use 2 massive conference rooms for 15 days a year ish, without that there’s no way to fit the event in……it’s truely massive!

This year was a bit frustrating as the satties switched to stars, there were some good value satties on Grosvenor last year!

This year I cleared out my GG account after a recent win to pay for my seat! 🤣😀

I'll do my best......i'd be very happy with min cash.....but not to the extent of playing for min cash. First time I played it, I got KK 3rd hand, I'd driven 2 hrs+ up from London, and someone 5 or maybe 6 bet me all in......we were deep obviously!! I considered the fold, but the reality is I'm not doing that.....but there was a reasonable chance it was AA.....it was ATo, WTF......shit myself for the 5 cards, but they held

There is plenty of terrible play you can take advantage of, but you have to be prepared to go with it!

Yeah I'll be up for having a beer with you. I will p.m. you closer to the time. I'm going to play the GG sat too. But if I don't qualify I'm going to play one live Day 1 event and reentry or if my chips are terrible I will probably play another day one if I don't use the reentry.

In regards to the clock the schedule day one blind schedule is the same as the day one clock schedule. Same for final day.

Surely they don't start from level one at the beginning of each day. But I have no idea this will be my first multi-day event

I swear people on this forum ask the weirdest questions ever. :LOL:
I'm genuinely wondering how you would actually get sponsorship. You'd obviously have to be a tremendous player. How many main events would you have to win for you not to have to pay your buyins anymore.

Technically you don't have to win an event for a backer. consistent results with a good ROI is enough for people taking a piece of the action

Yeah sounds great dude I look forward to it. They have £50 sattys to the main event at DTD usually too not sure if you knew .

Any time I’ve made day 2 at DTD the blinds get rolled back but I’ve never played in this event so it may be different.
