Yes, the ever-popular Primo is THIS FRIDAY.

It's a £15,000 guarantee, so that's tidy money for those who go deep.

Sean Boyce, Jason Barrasford & myself will be covering it Live, from the Studio.

There are Daily Satellites, just go to the Poker Lobby to have a gander.

You gotta be in it to win it. There are 32 Entries as of midday Tuesday.
 
Who wants to guess how many runners this will get?

    I'll set the line at 412. No idea why, just plucked a number out of the air :)

    Jeez Tikay, you've got a pretty harsh schedule this weekend, Primo on the friday then straight to DTD for 2pm start on Saturday???? That's pretty brutal.

    Depending on how well I run this week I might play this on my laptop from my hotel room in Nottingham :)

    I thrive on it, the more work I have, the better I like it, I'm like a donkey. In fact, I'm due at DTD at 11.30am on Saturday, but I only live 10 minutes from DTD, so no sweat. As soon as Friday night's Show has finished, I'll trundle up the M1, I'll be home before 3, & all will be cool.

    Side bet on it Tikay? Loser buys t'other a drink at DTD?

    (It's my 20th birthday on the Sunday, though, so I expect a drink from you then anyway :wink:)

    Wow. How brutal. Just have pride on it then :)

    Why do you think so low? 301 barely surpasses the guarantee???

    Are we talking about your work ethic here or your ability on the poker table?

    Taking into account the big final the day after...

    I reckon some regulars will not play so about 369  (that is the 3+3+3 rule of betting)

    Hi Tikay, 322 for me and if i manage to sat in i'll be playing from the hotel room in Corfu, but don't tell the wife she thinks we're going on holiday!

    I'll go for 368.
  • edited June 2009

    hello guys tikay rich and other players i satellited into the primo for the first time i satellited into the semi which cost me £2.65 i won that and then finished 2nd in the primo semi so i am now going to try my luck in the primo itself any tips on how to play this tournament is it fast structure or better to just play conservative to begin with and gradually get busy also i think there will be around 379 entrants
