it's such a task trying to keep poker players happy.

ah that's the great thing about forums, people can come together and discuss things and together we can find the optimum strategies for things, etc.

Unfortunately I can't enter, because although I hold the correct passport (well, see below...) and I am English by birth, I dont have an address in England. How lame!!!

Hi Mikky- i'll see what i can do about this. We have strict guidelines in place to avoid a situation where people would try to qualify for countries that they are not from, but we never intended to exclude genuine players.

       Why were we Scots not given an opportunity to qualify for our team?

Hi Stu - can only apologise for the absence of online qualifiers for Scotland. Perhaps if we had more time to promote online qualification things would have been different. Liam Flood our tournament consultant selected the captains for each country and he's done a good job, i hear what you're saying though and i guess this isn't very democratic (in the poker sense of the word) and I appreciate this method will inevitably not be to everyones taste.

Since this is the grand slam's first year, we can promote the event, develop it's profile and hopefully next year we can offer the opportunity of online qualifiers for all countries.
