Huge satellite value tonight (Sunday) both for SPT Las Vegas & SPT Glasgow

Tikay10

Big night for satellites tonight, & at present (0930), there is a ton of value on offer.

Tikay10

The first SPT Las Vegas Final at 9.15pm.

It guarantees 4 x £4,000 packages to Las Vegas, and currently has just 16 runners.

Plenty of satellites into the Final all day today, starting with Micros at £2.25 & £4.50, a Quarter at 5pm (£20,60), a Semi at 7pm (£94).

The Semi & the Final both permit a single rebuy if you want it.

Whatever happens, 4 players will win one of those packages tonight. Please note you MUST be 21 to win a package.

Tikay10

SPT Glasgow takes place next weekend, & there is a Semi Final (£48) at 9.45pm tonight.

2 seats are guaranteed (minimum 5 runners). Number of entries so far? NIL.

Plenty of Micros at £5.25 & £10.50.

There are some gorgeous luxury hotels in Glasgow too, if you want to stay over, & Glasgow has tremendous modern public transport.

How do the packages work exactly? I'm sort of new here! Is it just the entry fee for the tournament you win or do they cover expenses like travel costs too? I live in Cornwall so it would be an epic adventure just reaching Glasgow

Hi @pokerslim

For Glasgow, it's just the seat, so given you live all the way down in Cornwall, it's probably not ideal for you.

For Las Vegas, it includes 7 nights accommodation at a 5 Star Hotel on the Strip, £1,000 for your flights, entry to SPT Las Vegas & few social events in Vegas, include Welcome Party & Top Golf.

If you are new here, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.

Oh, & well done last night, 18th in the Sharpshooter Main is handy enough.

But most of all the people, lol.

Thanks @Tikay10 I'm sure I'll bombard you with questions again at some point

SPT Brighton in August maybe more to your mileage liking as Glasgow is a very long way from you but one thing is for certain, should you go to a SPT event you will have a great time and meet loads of friendly people.

pokerslim

@SidV79 Yeah Brighton would be a little easier to get to, and I've got friends that way so free accommodation is always a bonus! Although I work as a chef so my boss would probably hate me for going away in August, I'm sure I can win him round though! Where else do they do the SPT tournaments?

Nottingham and Manchester.

Granted I'm a little further north than you, Bristol, but Glasgow is the cheapest and quickest for me to get to.

Return train tickets to Manchester, Nottingham and Brighton range from £70 - 100 and times from 3-6 hours.

Return flights to Glasgow are £50 and take just over 1 hour.

Thought you were a chef, not a travel agent?

pokerslim

That's pretty crazy when you think about it, half the money for 1/3 the time travelling, I know what I'd do! I might have a go at getting into the Brighton one, it would be a good excuse for some time off in the summer and some time away from the kids too ha ha

You know what these travel agents are like though, he'd probably end up going via Cape Verde and paying extortionate mark up for the privilege.
