2024 Sky Tour Dates

Thorxx

Any news on the dates and locations for the SPT 2024.

Hi @Thorxx

Nothing yet, although it's 99% certain that SPT Brighton will be 1st to 3rd March. The last time I asked, it was all agreed but the Contract had yet to be signed. I'd be very surprised if those dates are not confirmed shortly.

No other dates have been agreed yet as far as I'm aware, although there WILL be 4 or 5 Events this year as usual.

I've not heard anything about a 2024 SPT Las Vegas yet though. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as it's not usually announced until March. I genuinely have no visibility whatsoever as to whether they will do Las Vegas this year, but I'd be moderately surprised if they did not.

Thanks @Tikay10 Shame I wont be able to make my local one at Brighton as I'm away that weekend. But will look out for the Vegas dates when released.

@Swifteyyeu


I'd say that's "extremely unlikely".

We did a London one a good few years ago & were inundated with complaints about exorbitant hotel costs & car parking fees.

@xGeemanx


They are open to anyone who wants to play.

Satellites run for a few weeks on Sky Poker, the venue run a satellite or two, or players can buy-in directly either Online via Sky Poker or at the venues.

Tikay - would you mind confirming the structure for SPT Brighton, are there multiple Day 1 flights on the Friday 1st and Sat 2nd? I'm thinking of attending so would be good to know start times for day one flights etc. Thanks

Morning Beefster,

Yes, there will be two Day 1's & then on the Sunday, it's the Final day. So start times etc are;


Day 1A Friday - start at 4pm

Day 1B Saturday - start at 2pm

Day 2, Sunday - start at 1pm



It will be a 25,000 starting stack, 40 minute clock all the way, & we do "BB Ante".

Buy-In will be £220 + £30 = £250, with a £60,000 Guarantee.

Players can re-enter ONCE each day. So, in theory, it's possible to have 4 entries. In the event you take a stack through from each of the two Day 1's, you surrender the smaller stack.

The full structure can be seen here;

Hope that's everything you need, if there is anything else, hit me up.


Make sure you come say hi please.

Beefster

Thanks for the detailed response, exactly what I was after.

And I will definitely say hi!

Hi,i know this might be a silly question but if you buy in online when they put up table and seat draw do they use your screen name or your actual name...

When you win a seat or buy in before the event the poker desk at registration in the building will have your actual name. No sky aliases are banded about

Hi @Tikay10 With less than a month to go, would you know if there are plans to start running satellites for SPT Brighton, or is it direct buyin only?
Would you be able to chase it up please?
Thank you as always.

Do try, it's a great venue & we always have fun there. It's great to meet other Sky Poker players there too & put faces to names.

If you do manage to get there, please come & say hi. Pretty sure Mr Channing @NChanning will be there too, I'll introduce you to him.

@HANSON

Morning.

Yes, I can confirm, you DO have a £250 seat in the tank which can be used for Brighton in a few weeks time.

Doubleme

my final exam for my degree is on the 31st. I live in Bournemouth it is completely unrealistic for me to make it to SPT Glasgow I mean unless I Travelled up straight after my exam, on the 31st with the intent of playing saturday. Its just not viable.
