Dusk Till Dawn cardroom manager Simon Trumper said, “Over the last 6 weeks, I have spoken with many of our regular evening tournament players to find out what they want. There has been a big focus on weekend events since the club has opened, but I felt it was time to review our evening schedule and give more value and a better poker experience to our evening players. The feedback was overwhelming. Nearly all players wanted earlier start times and more importantly, earlier finish times, so that they could come to the club more regularly. If they do make a final table, they’d still be able to get a good night sleep before work in the morning. With most of our current evening comps finishing between 2am and 4am, we needed to make some changes. Inevitably, players also wanted bigger prize pools, but with out increasing buy-ins, and many requests for a simple and stable evening schedule that everyone could get used to, were also voiced.
“After much discussion, we have decided to take the risk of putting a £5K / 100 runner guarantee on all of our senior comps, and simplify the buy-in to £50. We will also run a junior £15 freezeout tournament alongside, guaranteed at £750 / 50 runners. This gives our experienced players the chance to win an estimated £1,750 first prize (in the £50 FO) and we expect this comp to done and dusted by 1am, lasting around 5.5 hours. The junior £15 comp will also finish at a more sociable time, around 11.30pm, lasting around 4.5 hours.”
