    Good morning Gentlemen.

    It's good to know you look forward to these SPT's.

    Apologies for the delay, but we are changing some things this year, & we will let you know just as soon as everything is signed & sealed.

    To a degree, it is "with others" but, fingers crossed, there may be some news in the next few days.  As you will infer from this, it is quite complicated. If we can broker the arrangements we are trying for, it will be worth the wait, imo.

    As always, there will always be plenty of notice for SPT's. All things considered, I very much doubt there wil be an SPT in February now.

    Your patience & understanding is appreciated.

    Thanks for keeping us up to date. I have copied the above over to Gen Poker Chat as the question has been asked every live show since Luton.

    which venue in the south west that holds 200+ people would you like us to go to?

    (I am assuming we're talking plymouth, exeter, torquay up as far as taunton)

    thanks

    Bristol can cover 200+

    Cardiff was reasonable distance 

    shore there are some in plym that could 

    was looking forward to playing in one of the spt but to far    think sky have knocked this for alot of people with the venues that have been chosen

    Are these events qualify only or can you buy straight in?
  • SPTSPT Member Posts: 5,648
    edited January 2013
    Cardiff is not available this time round

    Nowhere in Plymouth

    Bristol? Sky had a bad experience there, though things are better nowadays I know

    The South West is poorly served for venues capable of hosting to the standards we require


    The venues are geographically spread. Central venues like Nottingham and Birmingham are accessible from anywhere in the country

    London of course too, its really only Newcastle that is "regionally restrictive" of the English venues

    Of course it hasn't "knocked it in" for Sky Poker players

    usually qualify only at the start, and then opened up to direct buy in close to the tournament date if seats remain

    there not that accessible...poorly served for venues ? does not look like much work has been done checking this out as there are a fair few that could host with good standards

    and it has knocked it for a fair number as the venues chosen are not that  accessible 


    hopefully sky will look at this for 2014 and make it more accessible 

    anyway gl with the tour and gl to all those that get to go

    There's lots of nice fields and in Basingstoke we have a decent sized park which is probably a bit under utilized as it currently gets used for the mayor's firework fiesta, 'balloons over Basingstoke' and a music event called  Basingstoke Live (a contradiction in terms prob) and not much else so we could have 'Hold 'em in Hampshire' or even poker in the park.
