Title: EPT question : smoking
Post by: mikkyT on January 22, 2006, 01:59:06 AM
Are you allowed to smoke at the tables?

If no, I need to find a new way of playing live :D

That went by the wayside in the last comp at cincins last sat :D

But, this would give me a reason to try to fix the bad habit. I'll have to drink instead. What time does day 1 start... can't really have wine for breakfast now can I?

Pretty sure you can, except for final table. But it probably depends on that country's laws on smoking in enclosed public places etc. You should be fine in France

Not sure about that, the Barcelona EPT was none smoking, but alas couldn't tell you if it still was at the final table.

You sure? There were loads of people smoking at the tables in Barcelona. But none of the players or crowd could smoke at the final table (I know cos I got told off by the TD). The guy who won, Jan Boubli (sp), kept having to nick away for a fly drag

NO SMOKING at EPT's. You have to be away from the table,sometimes only by about two feet!

You can have wine anytime Mikky, in fact I count wine as 1 of my 5 fruit and veg portions a day

Actually Mikky - if you play in one of these or another non-smoking event, you will probably find that the concentration level is so high that you won't feel the need.  I had a couple of breaks in the first levels but once the tourney really got going I didn't notice not smoking.

I know someone ( Mikky he was sitting on your left at CinCins £100 last week) who was rather aggrieved that his doctor laughed at this suggestion.
