Title: Midlands Masters at Walsall
Post by: The_Ant on October 15, 2005, 07:46:03 PM
I recently printed off a flyer from the Grosvenor site about the Masters festival at Walsall in Nov.  On this flyer were details of satellites for the Main event.  Just had a look on the Grosvenor site again and this info has been removed.

Can anyone confirm if they will be having sats to the big events at the festival as i would like to have a bash at some of these?

Thanks in advance.

hum i kinda like the schedules

never knew they listed the schedules on gosvenor

this looks good for next couple of months

havent decided on blackpool yet might play the tuesday or the friday comp
leaning heavly to the friday


also the tuesday and wednessday comps look good at walsall might have to make it 3 nights stay

and luton looks good with the freezeout only formula might get a NLHE and a PLO fitted in 2 days but
that will depend on the riverboat getting its finger out and coming out with some dates

only problem is they havent got a form on site that i can print off and fill in and return with a cheque

if only they had made the PLO a freezeout i would have been happy

They originally posted a number of sats to the 1500 and 750 NLHE events but it looks like they must have changed their minds.  I see Blue sq are running qualifiers tho'

I expect they're just going to alter the dates rather than get rid of the sats.

thx for informing me about blue square sats.

I'll have a gander now.

Just registered with blue square.

I thought they were a European site. It's full of Americans.

Anyhows, I couldn't see any Midlands Classics Satellites.

are you sure about that one The_Ant?
