Grosvenor UK Poker Tour

[Colchester Kev]

Good luck with it Jon .... looks like a winner to me.

[matt674]

Any plans to run a grosvenor/blue square blackjack tour to coincide with the poker?

 

[RobS]

75/150 AND 150/300? Too many levels surely!   

Seriously though sounds like a good idea, nice to see running antes and added prize money.

How is the £10K added per venue to be distributed?

Is it the £5K seat in GF and £5K added to the general pool?

Looks a great tour and it'll certainly mean I'll play a bit more on BSq

ok...I have to open an account on blue square then.

Very good news for all UK based players and added money WOW well done BSQ , will players be able to wear logos ?.Also will all players be sitting on the same day or will there be a day1a and 1b

Probably as long as Blue sq is written on them

Its actually £13,000 added to each leg. £10,000 plus a seat in the Grand Final.

All the added prize money is going to the winners of legs 1-10. What thus has enabled us to do is to have  a flatter prize structure for the rest of the payout positions while still having a decent first prize. There are those who prefer flat pay stuctures and those who prefer top heavy ones, so hopefully this should satisfy both, to some degree. I would welcome any constructive comments about the prize structure.

We have yet to decide how the £50,000 which is being added to the Grand Final will be distributed.

Players are able to wear logos, but there will be some restictions and no more than 10 people will be able to wear logos from any one company (with the exception of Blue Square/Grosvenor, of course).

Some of the events are three day events with all players starting on the same day, but others will be four day events with two first days. The three day events will have maximum capacities of up to 200 players and the four day events will be up to 400.

Would love to but I don't think the Gaming Board are keen on it. If the possibility arises I will be pushing for it.

[PeteL]

Nice 1 Blue Sq/Grovesnor, once again showing they give back to the poker community, i wonder what  their next idea will be?

[I, Zimbra]

Exciting stuff... even more sats I can contribute dead money to!

[Royal Flush]

Love it, 1 question though, only 5 levels on day 1. Seems like the expenses will rack up a bit with that extra hotel! Is this so people who work on Friday can play?
