    Can't see the £5.20 ones in the lobby?
    The rest are all there though

    It's £110 buy-in, but you can't buy-in direct, so why put the £110 up ?.

    A £110 2 day event?

    Quite a costly weekend for a smaller buy i when you include travelling and accommodation. . Any reason why over 2 days instead of 1 for a £110 BI?

    Yes to try to give a two day tournament experience for a smaller buy in to make it more acccessible to a wider range of players

    We know the £110 events sell/qualify quickly, we've seen some £220 events sell/qualify a lot slower in 2012-13

    For a community tour, where the weekend experience for many is much more than just the poker and its not merely an expenses/prize pool calculation, we wanted to try this

    Personally I like the two day structure, nice and deep - as stated the weekend is about poker granted but also the community spirit makes the weekend immense - I guess the structure will be around 30,000 starting stack and 9 handed per table - I know the details will be released prior but roughly speaking is this correct?

    Yes something similar to the structure this past weekend

    300 big blinds to start and a 40 minute clock, all the levels
