anyone going to play this?

i think it will struggle for numbers personally.

I am playing this.

I think it will definitely struggle a bit.  The WSOPE and EPT events must have made a serious dent in some people's bankrolls.  There seems to have been a serious glut of £1K+ events in London.  At the EPT alone I could have happily played a £1K full ring, 6 max and omaha one, but decided to stick to just the one.

But this is near London and still cheaper than the grand final, so I will be there.

Thanet and Blackpool, coastal resorts, in late autumn? Inland Luton in the summer. Does this make sense?

I think from memory that Brighton has been in January too.  Though they did run it a warmer time of the year in the first season and it was very difficult to get a hotel room anywhere.  I know I paid an extortionate price for a terrible room at the time. 

Though hard to imagine Ramsgate ever gets busy anymore.

What you setting the line at Trigg?

I'm going, but it's a 4 hour trip even from Birmingham.

There was a decent enough field last year, but I think it could really struggle this year?

gonna head down friday but agreed, i suspect the field may be short

Dwarf poker ?

TK should qualify then  ;)

The reason for going to coastal towns out of season is indeed about the price and availability of accomodation.

Blackpool is my favourite UKPT event, but I see it is back to being the same week as Amsterdam :(

Bad news.

I'm sure you can get a bag of skunk and a transsexual hooker in blackpool if you ask around.

is it true that PokerStars "were deep in negotiations to takeover the GUKPT but this one apparently fell through for now"?

There was a discussion but it never reached an advanced stage.

pretty sure ppl stumping up £1k for an event will be more than happy to pay more for accomodation in return for more femflesh on display and that rare joy of seeing sunshine.

Some maybe, but reduced hotel availability and increased prices would mean smaller fields. Many players are conscious of keeping their expenses down. There's always tittie bars for those fem starved players that want it...

not in blackpool there aint

The opening event of the GUKPT in Thanet was a £200 NL Hold'em freezeout. There were 111 runners, which was not too bad a start to the festival. Tonight's tournament is a £300 NL Hold'em Freezeout.

I think you underestimate what skinflints poker players can be when it comes to this sort of thing.

lol^^^

Blackpool's always mad busy isn't it?

still dont have any good titty bars

They have plenty, its just that they are all downstairs LOL

hence the GOOD

there're some good ones upstairs too

FYP

Whats Thanet like? Am i gonna be on tilt before I even play? Best hotel to provisionally book?

Travelodge, the best Hotel in town. Right up your street, that.

Have there been any events where you haven't been on tilt before the start?

Easiest hotel is the Margate Travelodge, which is right nextdoor to the casino.

I think the town's pretty good, or good enough for us to go on the piss on Friday night.

4 Seasons Thanet has a nice ring but think you might be out of luck lol

Dunno been losing, even Travelodge might be pushing the budget.

Prob come play Friday then
