Its 10% on all comps to a maximum of £25

I can certainly vouch for the last point.

There you go - "we are here to provide a service". I, for one, am more than happy to pay for the service, especially if it's a good service.
I don't want something for nothing, & by paying for my "service" (dealers, waitresses, free drinks, sarnies, even buffets at many, including The Broadway, & Grosvenor Walsall) it gives us the right to give them a little poke in the ribs when things are not quite right. If it's free, we have no right to complain. In my opinion, that is.

sorry to add to such an old thread. I've just been looking through the Vic schedule and noticed that some of the £50 comps are £5 'entry stake and entry fee' and some are £10. Just wondered if anyone knows why there is a difference? Are the £5 self dealt perhaps?

No need to apologise Claw!
I don't really know the answer Claw, but someone will, I'm sure.
But I know this. (wholly unrelated to your question, my apologies). If a venue charges no juice on the comp, & no Entry or Session Fee, it removes my right to complain when the service is poor, or there are no dealers, or no free drinks, bikkies or sarnies.
But if they charge me a Reg Fee, and/or a Sesion Fee, then I have a right to expect decent Service, Dealers, comfy chairs & good Customer Care. Personally, I'd rather pay for the Service, as that means if I don't get looked after, I can complain, or take my custom elsewhere. I really don't want the Venues to give me something for nothing, as I don't wish to be beholden to anyone.
But many think the venues should not charge, & they are perfectly entitled to that view. It's really quite wonderful that we all think differently on these things.

Re: getting value for money from a venue, at the £5 + £2 self-dealt tournie at Walsall yesterday [1] I misdealt to the player in the ten seat which rather ruined her KK.
A little later after fluffing a riffle she asked how long I'd worked here and did I think I needed more training
[1] 8 tables, 200 rebuys, only 1 floorman and 1 waitress who didn't reach our table before the first break.

Well then you must & should complain. That's the beauty of being charged, it gves you that right!

I did.
Apparently I was paying £2 to deal myself to pay for the WSOP seats they offer, the ipods they give away in the leagues and all the other wonderful promotions.
