    The easiest & quickest way to find both UKOPS Satellites & UKOPS Events is to go to the MTT Lobby & click the little UKOPS tab.

    If you plan to qualify, try to do so early, don't leave it until the last minute.

    It all kicks off next Thursday week, which is sort of Good Friday Eve.

    Present it properly, and nobody writes a word, make a mistake, & they are in like a shot.

    ;)

    Edited now. No idea what I was thinking.

    it was presented perfectly. It was the content that was erroneous.;-)

    I see there are Sats. today for the UKOPS £3000 Bounty Hunter, but it says the sats. and All-Ins are for the tourney at 7pm TONIGHT..... I'm sure this is a mistake as there is no £3000 Bounty Hunter at 7pm tonight.... can you clarify if the sats. and All-Ins are for UKOPS 1 on the 29th March please TiKay (or James)?

    Tonight (Tuesday 20th) there are NO Satellites to any UKOPS £3,000 Bounty Hunters.

    Tonight's UKOPS Satellites are to UKOPS 09 High Roller.

    The Lobby has been amended accordingly.

    Apologies all round.

    Hi Tikay

    I was lucky enough to win entry to tonights £48 UKOPS High Roller semi final - but as there was only 6 runners the semi final didn't run. Will we be entered automatically to the next High Roller semi final (which I think isn't until 27th March?).

    Also can I ask if there is a reason the UKOPS £48 semi final needed a minimum of 7 players for the game to be played (with 3 guaranteed seats to the £220 event) but the other £48 semi final game for entry to SPT Notts - (also for 3 guaranteed seats to a £220 event) only needed 5 players for the game to be played?

    Evening Rose.

    I'll need to get back to you in the morning, then I'll be able to let you know.

    There is a very good reason, yes. As has been mentioned previously, a very small number of regulars have been abusing these by agreeing to "flip" as soon as it starts, & thus denying others the chance to enter, & of course costing Sky Poker a lot of money. This scenario does not present itself in SPT sats though as, generally, there are more runners registered when it starts, partly due to the different sats structure.

    Many thanks Tikay - all sorted - looking forward to UKOPS - hope you get to play some of your fav omaha games in it.

    Thanks Rose.

    UKOPS is bad timing for me, as Gill is coming down for the weekend. I hope to be doing daily UKOPS updates, as usual, which takes 3 or 4 hours, so it'd be a bit naughty if I then played poker in the evening.

    It'll probably save me money though. :)
