    iHi Guys,
    I went to all the legs, except Swansea, so i will give you a run down of the venues.
    Leg 1 and final- DTD Nottingham, excellent venue no complaints at all.
    Leg 2 Broadway, Birmingham, cramped at the start with to many seats up against pillars(i sat for two hours with the table pushed into my stomach, not very comfortable.
    Leg 3 Edinburgh, lovely building, great food, but in need of updating inside, the tourny split into two adjoining rooms, not the best for the atmosphere.
    Leg 4 Newcastle, again i had no complaints at all, very well run, well spaced tables.

    having said this i would like to go to different casinos.
    London, Southend, Walsall, Teesside(walking distance from my house hehe), or any casino that has held big tournies before(gukpt, apat etc), would do me just fine.
    I just hope that the fun that was in evidence this year can be there next year.
    My only gripe would be to keep it a Sky Poker only tour. No in house players please.

    It should come to somewhere in the North West as considering it is a tour of the UK the last one never came anywhere near the North West and with big cities like Liverpool and Manchester can't see why not?

    Either of these cities would be great and I defo would be there!

    Id also love to see it at the GALA Bristol as it would be good to see some sky poker faces and be involved in a live event. I think its a great venue with a very good card room and have always wanted to play in a major torny live and this would give me a chance as its very close to where i live :)

    Ireland would be great for a leg of the tour.

    Yes, please. Come to Dublin (I know it's not UK, but you could change the name to SPUKIT).
    Don't forget you're Irish poker fanbase - you'd be sure to get a full house.
    I think you need to remove UK from SPUKT as the tour never comes to the North of Ireland. I know we can't watch channel 865 anymore since you started the InfoBar & advertising the up & coming events. All the best.

    Strange! I have no problem getting 865 in Dublin, and I'd have to think there would be more legal reasons for not showing it here. Maybe you should get onto Sky and find out why you can't get the channel.

    Hi Jed,

    For Regulatory/Legal/OFCOM related reason, it IS available in the RoI, but no longer available in Northern Ireland, though it can still be watched anywhere via the Live Internet Stream.

    I agree - but I'm not aware of any Licensed Cardrooms in Cambridge. The neaerst I'm aware of is in Luton.

    for SPUKT how about some venue near to manchester for one of the events poker scene here is probably not quite up to speed with down south but this event would help promote poker more..

    how about it?
