Good morning.

Everyone who qualified or won Promos on Sky Poker for the UKPC next week has been sent an e-Mail, but for those who missed it, a few pointers here.

If you have ANY questions, fire away, & SPT Rich or myself will try & reply.

    You need to be a member of DTD to play, so if you are not, you MUST bring photo ID - ideally Driving Licence or Passport.

    There are often queues on Day 1, so arrive in plenty of time if you want to be seated for the start.

    Once you gain entry for DTD, & assuming you won your seat on Sky Poker, that's it, you don't need to do anything else when you arrive.

    There are plasmas everywhere, & the table & seat draw will go up 5 minutes before the scheduled start time.

    The CURRENT Lobby is here.

    If you have qualified, & your alias is not shown, please let us know immediately.

    Some 6 or 7 players have not responded to their e-mails, despite repeat sendings. These players will be withdrawn from the Lobby if they do not respond, as we don't want "dead stacks" in a 6 Max event. THIS ONLY APPLIES CTO THE FREEROLL WINNERS.

    Please note this is a re-entry.

    Players are permitted one re-entry per flight, & the same again to any subsequent flight.

    Re-entry will ONLY be via DTD at their Cash Desk.

    You can also Join (pre-register) as a member on the DTD website, this makes getting through the que a whole lot quicker and saves filling out the form in the reception area, which in my experience was a bit cubersome. All you need to do then is show your ID and they will do the rest.

    Other important questions....................

    Where are the toilets?
    Turn left as you walk in, go to the bottom of the room, up a couple of steps and they are on your left hand side. They also have dissabled access.

    Where is the Bar?
    On your right hand side as you enter.

    How do I know what table im on?
    The plasma screens will show your name (Not your addy) Table and seat number.

    What seat is mine?
    If you stand facing the dealers chair, then "Seat 1" is to the right. then seats 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

    What if I need the loo?
    You can leave the table at any time if you are not in the hand.

    Where is the Smoke area?
    Turn Left as you walk in and out through the doors at the bottom.

    How do I know what the Blinds are?
    This will be displayed on the plasma screens eg 50/100 along with "Next Level" how long is left till the end of the level. There are plenty of them so you won't be straining your neck like some casinos i've been in.

    Please do not ogle the DTD Valets - remember, it's rude to stare.
