    Ok.

    But what happens if we qualify twice? 

    For example 1 has just started @ 2-30 and wont end or be close to ending before the next 1 starts @ 3.30....

    Some people would like to play both......... (the first 1 is 1 in 50, 2nd 1 more realistic 1 in 10 shot)

    (Apologies if you've gone on to explain this in another post whilst I've been typing)

    A mechanism exists if it does. A fair & reasonable one.

    PS - I love you. A bit.

    If this were to happen and you were playing two satellites at once (and qualified in both), the second one would trigger a cash credit for the value of the seat.

    Dear Sky Poker.

    For some strange reason I am having tingling sensations.

    Do you think this is the excitement of the satelites for the new UKOPS or should I phone an ambulance?


    Please don't take this too seriously lol - I am OK Now, Honest!

    Glad you are looking forward to them!

    Best wishes to you and your team - I'm sure there will be a good battle between the community teams on which one can pick up the most UKOPS titles.

    Those satellites look a bit tasty! 

    Two hours to go then till the first direct satellite for Event 1- the Halloween £20,000 GTD Bounty Hunter on Monday 31st October.

    And we've guaranteed 10 seats into that massive event in tonight's satellite!

    Yes, you're right, I agree entirely...we're spoiling you. The cost of this satellite? Just £12.

    5 min blinds and 3000 chips to start with. So far, NO-ONE has regged for this.

    It starts at 7.30pm...

    GET ON IT, LIKE A CAR BONNET!

    SATS and the whole UKOPS thing looks great......but i'm disturbed by a mental image of you on a car bonnet!!

    What a great SAT structure! I am going to be trying all manner of things to get into either the bounty hunter, high roller or main event. To think you are only 2 tournys away from getting there for £2.60, must be worth a fair few goes...

    Hand for Hand......

    Please note that Sky Poker will be going hand for hand from 2 tables out for the following UKOPS sats  UKOPS Super Satellite @ 9pm every day (6 prizes)

    UKOPS Direct @ 7.30 & 10.30 (10 prizes guaranteed)

    This will apply to ANY UKOPS satellites which have 6 or more Prizes.

    Unfortunately, it is highly unlikely that it will be available for UKOPS itself. It is on one of the current spec improvement packages, but it's highly unlikely to be ready, & fully tested, in time for UKOPS.

    UKOPS Leaderboard, & prizes.

    It has not been finally agreed how this will work, what points per placing/Event etc, yet, but it WILL happen.

    Prizes? Yes, 5 Prizes have been earmarked, as follows......

    5th & 4th - Free Entry to a standard One Day £110 SPT 2011/12 Leg.

    3rd & 2nd - Free Entry to a standard Two Day £220 SPT 2011/12 Leg.

    WINNER - Free Entry to the SPT 2011/12 Grand Final. (£330).

    TV Coverage.

    Still under review, but there are a myriad of different ways of doing, or attempting to do this, & nothing has been agreed yet.

    However, the UKOPS Tourneys will all have the TV Icon, which allows Ch 865 to televise them, either live or recorded, should they do choose.

    Some coverage is guaranteed - final Tables etc - in recorded form, but "Live" is still under review.

    Obviously, the Omaha, & the Rebuys, will NOT be shown on 865 come what may.

    On a personal note, if 865 do not require my services on any UKOPS night, I'll play the whole series. (tikay1, my own account). I will NOT be entering any UKOPS Satellites, as that may be misconstrued by one or two.

    For those who want to buy-in direct, ALL the UKOPS Events are now in the Registration Lobby. UKOPS #1 is in the top, "greyed out" section, 2 - 8 are at the foot of the Lobby.

    Two thoughts atm (a new record for me)

    1)Please don't finish the TV coverage at 1am seen as this is deffo the most important week of the year for Sky Poker, all tournaments NEED to be covered until they finish.

    2) If any micro stakes players are brought in by the "buzz" they are likely to be put off by the extortionate rake of the low stakes STTs
