When will direct buyin be opening? Posted by bearlyther
Not sure there will be direct buy in for this. Only 100 seats in the satellites. My advice would be to qualify in as if it happens direct buy in will be late in the piece.
The Business did consider running Satellites which included travel & hotel costs.
However......the main reason for going to Dublin, where we have never been before, it to allow as many locals & ROI players as possible to sample a SPT "at home" for the very first time. So really, we are hoping lots of them qualify. This is really important for us.
The SPT Regulars who travel to all the SPT's are equally important, & we hope as many as are able are there, but capacity is extremely limited, so it is not easy to satisfy everyone on this occasion.
There are legal & logistical reasons why we chose Sporting Emporium, no other venue could satisfy those criteria, so the capacity thing was out of our hands.
Does any of the locals, know of any hotels within walking distance of the venue. save on taxi fares, also how far out of DUBLIN is the Airport. Posted by ctbn
The airport is just north of the city, and the venue is in the centre, south of the river just north of stephens green.
As Solar said our hotel and flights are booked. If I get to play all good and well but I am going for the beer/friends/beer/fun/beer. Oh did I mention going for beer? Hehe
Sky would not be able to organise a live event without people moaning for some reason or another. Anyone who goes to the SPT's know how much work goes into organising these events and how much work all the Sky staff do on the weekend. Keep it up Sky you are doing a great job. See you in Dublin
Well I have just got my ticket trough of all things the national freeroll held on friday. I finished 36th I think and was given auroras encore which only went and won. So thanks Sky and hope to see as many regulars there to put faces on alais's.

Aidan : You ever been to Ireland, Alan? Alan : No, no. I’d love to go. Aidan : It amazes me when people say that and it’s only 49 quid on a plane. Alan : Yeah. I think that’s what puts me off. Posted by NoseyBonk

Flights and hotel booked for myself and the Elder D. Hopefully qualify. If not, then it's a day at the racecourse.
Loverly.
