DTD Grand Prix Sells Out


Day 1a of the DTD Grand Prix kicks off today. At the weekend there were some worries that the guarantee wouldn't be met with only 300 or so buyins. However over the past few days buyins were rife and the event reached full capacity with 810 runners creating a prizepool of 81,000 euros.

With a modest buyin of 100euros I'm sure the event will be full of fish, therefore it'll be important to be patient and pick your spots. Theres no point rushing in all guns blazing trying to take down every pot as nothing ever suprises me in these types of events. One brief example is holding AA in a 3-bet pot pre, board comes down 568 and someone wakes up with 79o lol.

It'll be interesting to see how day 1a plays out, how many bust outs, average stack at the end of the day etc. It's a 10k starting stack on a 40min clock, so I'm sure by the end of the day there will be plenty of action. Unfortunately there is no dinner break in this event, it runs from 1pm to 12am with just a 15min break every 2 hours :(

Good luck to anyone playing and I'll post an update after the event.
