London Alternates
« on: April 12, 2010, 18:11:10 PM »
Hello friends, I see that they will be accepting alternates for the first 2 levels. I want to get in as an alt if I just get there early and say I want to be an alt and get within the first 5 what"s the chances of me getting in?

Holla.

Alternates are, IIRC, allowed in up to the end of the first 2 levels.

TBH, you don"t see a lot of bustouts in that time-frame. This is deepstack poker and barring two big hands getting overly frisky you just don"t see it.

It happens, but being number 5 probably isn"t going to get you in. No"s 1 and 2 stand the best chance but even those are long shots.

In Swansea, there were 2 alternates, and they both got in.

Likely to be more demand for alternates in London, but we normally lose a few players in the first couple of levels.

There is always a chance, I was busted out in Swansea during second blind level :)  The other event I played in Bolton had around 4/5 alternates make it through I believe.

There are a few seats available in the Seat Exchange.

Keep checking.
