Right, lets get this sorted
13 tickets, So far we have confirmed
Chris*
Stephen*
David
Tony B*
Brian T*
Me*
Furno*
James Cooke*
Dave Lee*
Mark Gordon
Leo*
Ben*
Coops*
Havent seen updated points (ahem Alex - if you could) but I think these guys have first chances if people dont accept their ticket
Antoine
Coops
Stuart Garner
Alistair Hardie
Get on to the forum and let us know by next wednesday if you are accepting your ticket or want to be on the reserve list. I'll double check the updated points once they're in to make sure this is right.
If you do accept your ticket we will be collecting the £30 buy in the next poker night (which is wednesday - see other forum for details on that)
Anyone I haven't mentioned that wants a ticket. Stick your name on the forum too, you never know it might get down to you.
There are also other ways to win FREE tickets on the UK student poker website in conjuction with Betfred poker (details coming this week)

Right in case any of you are undecided, here's aome details
The UK Student Poker Championship 2006 will be held at one of Edinburgh’s finest venues, the Edinburgh Corn Exchange, on the weekend of the 1st and 2nd April. For a 360 degree virtual tour go to www.ece.uk.com.
The Championship will have a maximum of 300 poker players, and so should eclipse the current largest poker tournament ever held in Great Britain, currently standing at 259 players – the Championship 2005!
It will be a Texas Holdem tournament with the buy in set at £30.
The top 30 places will be paid, so day one will be played until only 30 players remain.
Regardless of the blind level at the finishing time of day one, day two will start with a rolled back blind structure as advocated by many of the top European players.
Day One
Starting at 12.00
Starting chips = 10,000 points
Starting players = 300
Start Time / Blinds
12.00 - 50/100
12.40 - 100/200
1.20 - 150/300
2.00 - Break
2.10 - 200/400
2.50 - 300/600
3.30 - 400/800
4.10 - Break
4.40 - 600/1,200
5.20 - 800/1,600
6.00 - 1,000/2,000
6.40 - 1,500/3,000
7.20 - 2,000/4,000
8.00 - Break
8.10 - 3,000/6,000
8.50 - 4,000/8,000
9.20 - 6,000/12,000
Day Two
Starting at 12.00
Starting players = 30
Blind levels drop back for the start of the day.
Half an hour break when down to 10 players.
Start Time / Blinds
12.00 - 1,000/2,000
12.30 - 2,000/4,000
1.00 - 3,000/6,000
1.30 - 4,000/8,000
2.00 - 6,000/12,000
2.30 - 8,000/16,000
3.00 - 10,000/20,000
3.30 - 15,000/30,000
4.00 - 20,000/40,000
4.30 - 30,000/60,000
5.00 - 40,000/80,000
5.30 - 60,000/120,000
6.00 - 80,000/160,000

No point in the rest of you even turning up if Furno's going, unless you want to play for second place! |
