There is a new schedule at Stanleys in Portwall Lane, Bristol :

(All games Texas No Limit Hold 'Em)

1st Wednesday of every month is a £100 freezeout

Every other Wednesday is a £30 Freezeout

Thursdays - A £30 optional one rebuy or topup

Fridays - A £20 rebuy

Saturdays - A £50 rebuy

Sunday afternoons - A £20 rebuy.

Pity that the freezeouts are on Wednesdays, but then again, this mght deter a lot of people from going, so the fields could be smaller...

How many chips do you get in freezeout?

Not sure, but my guess would be 5,000 mate...

Not played in the casino for a while, and have never played a "freezer" there, as all their tourneys have been re-buys upto now, which got you just 1,000 chips, which made em an all in donkfest....

About time I updated this, I guess....

Wednesdays and Thursdays at Stanleys are now £10 Rebuys...

Fridays are £20 Re-buys...

Saturday is now a £20 freezeout, with one re-buy OR top up, so max spend £40...

I havent played the re-buys, but Saturdays now attract 60 - 70 runners....

I much preferred Saturdays when they were £50 with one re-buy OR top up, max spend £100, as you got 25 - 30 runners , who all knew how to play...

Now, you can get people for whom £40 is "cheaper than taking the missus out", "a bit of a laugh", "cheaper than going clubbing", who aint got a clue about Poker...

The other week, I was dealing, and had pocket nines...With blinds at 200 / 400, a guy in mid position raises to 1,000, another guy calls....

I go all in for 10,300 chips...

First guy could couldnt get rid of his cards quick enough...Other guy calls, leaving himself just 200 chips, turns over Queen Nine off-suit, and rivers a Queen !

What was really galling was that I go get a pint, and return to card room 10 minutes later, to find the guy gone - a mate of mine said that after knocking me out, he got cocky and over confident, and pissed all the chips aways in double quick time !

Another time, my pocket aces got cracked by 3 - 4 off, which flopped a pair, and turned trips !

Hopefully, all this evens out over time, but at the time its unbelievable to see people calling with absolute junk and sucking out !
