    Unless DTD have changed their policy, min cash will be £2000, they will pay top 10%, maybe a few more.  I would expect initial cash positions to be pretty flat with some dramatic jumps towards the top positions.

    From Rob Yong

    "Okay. This is the big one to try and hit - the £500,000 main event. Had various messages and questions about bits and bobs, Simon Aces Trumper is in the final of the PLO so I will try my best to deputise - so here you go:

    1. Yes- everyone will get in tomorrow that turns up, 6-max breaks down really quickly so even of you're on the alternates list - you won't have to wait long - with late reg and alternates/players busting we could easily get 400+ in during the late reg period which is 7 levels till 9pm (of course, we don't expected that number but my point is don't worry - you will get in if you turn up)

    2. We currently have 200 pre-registrations for tomorrow, including the 10 seat sat winners tonight, that means we need 331 players tomorrow to make the £500,000, so that's 131 walk ins we need

    3. Yes- tomorrow Day 1c is a Freezeout. Players who have busted day 1a and/or Day 1b can re-enter into tonorrows day 1c - but I repeat - it's then a freezeout

    4. So far 11 players have re-entered from day 1a, we always expected re-entries to be a very small number at £1K buy with a next day only re-entry policy

    5. Blinds start at 100-200 with 50,000 chips, even if you arrived between 3.20pm and 4.20pm - you would still be buying in for 100 big blinds at 250-500 level, its a 1 hour clock throughout

    6. I don't know whether we will make the £500K GTE, I would say it's odds against because we only got 53 walk ins on day 1c of the PokerStars 6-Max last year, so we would need to almost triple that number tomorrow to make the £500,000.

    7. No Stefarno Del Watto there is no dress restrictions during 3rd party events, track suits are allowed!

    Good luck to you all and good luck to us lot aswell. Doing a £1M 6-max series is never nailed on, so far - so good - but the make or break of the festival will be tomorrow's final number.

    Cheers Rob"

    Sean Randall out 5th in the Omaha. can anyone stop Mad Norwegian (except himself)? EPT Winner Mckey petersen is creeping up on the rail with a double handful...


    the final number for the main today was 109, meaning we have 177 entries after 2 days

    323 required tomorrow. In a few ways, its quite a big day for DTD, Sky Poker!
