Any idea when GUKPT Luton sats are going to kick off?
Sorry Dan, just seen this, apologies for the slow response.
The Luton GUKPT satellites on Sky Poker will commence immediately after the Summer Series concludes, which will be on Sunday 10th July, so satellites for the GUKPT "proper" at Luton will start w/c 13th July.
As we only recently got the licence from Rank to run GUKPT sats, we've been up against it for qualifying periods, but in 4 days, we managed to get 4 Qualifiers for Walsall.
Against their better judgement I then persuaded the Suits to run Summer Series (£500) GUKPT Satellites, & again, in 4 days, we got 4 qualifiers through, 3 for Dundee, & 1 for Brighton. Unfortunately, I felt rather silly when, I think, a mere 26 turned up at Dundee, & including 2 direct buy-ins, 5 of them were from Sky Poker! I believe 1 of them, James Rann, aka runitrann, is chippy going back today, & he assures me he will tid with the mof. Let's hope so.
I think we'll probably continue to rum Summer Series satellites, though not 100% sure, the low numbers at Dundee were a blow, but 100% we will be running them once the GUKPT's "proper" get started again for Luton & beyond.
Let me know if you have any further questions, & I'll try to be a little more prompt with the reply next time.....
