Now, it's a known fact that just about every poker player in the UK wants to play in the 'main' event in the WSOP - the $10k buyin NLHE event. Well P4C is looking to setup both live and online sats for this event in 2006, only thing is so is everybody else. However, not many will be running sats to the $10k PLO event. P4C is, all we need is enough players prepared to cough up the cash to play in a sat. It is hoped we can get 20 players paying £325 + £50 each for a winner takes all sat to this event which would include flight and accomodation and hopefully a bit of spendies. Roy Houghton has already agreed to officiate the sat. All profit from the sat goes to Game for Life. If the winner is a Blondite we have no objection to sharing the shirt branding. Who is up for it?

Just spoken to the designer - www.At-It.co.uk will be live by Thursday lunchtime!!!! You have been warned!!!!!

In terms of clock and starting stacks we are looking to go 'big' poss 10000 with 2 hour clock (maybe 90mins) the tournament has to be completed in one session though because of costs.

More than willing to listen to any suggestions, as the main thing is to turn a wee profit for Game for Life and to have representatives of Team P4C in the WSOP. Even happy to run sats to the sat etc. I honestly believe that if we get enough Brits in the PLO event one could go on to win it.

Maybe an online company will want to run sats for the sat. However in the meantime I am happy to run a £10 rebuy sat with NO reg fee with a seat in the main sat being awarded for every £375 in the kitty. The proviso for this offer is that I can find a venue that doesn't charge or charges what I can personally afford (i.e. not much).

Another idea is that 10 mates get together put £37.50 into the kitty and play out to see who represents them in the sat if that player wins the sat they could all be on 10% (as a kind of poker syndicate) if he/she cashes in vegas.

OOOOOOPS nearly forgot to mention that the winner of the sat (and all other P4C sats - other WSOP events, WPT, EPT etc.) will be provided with a new wardrobe (Ok suit carrier) of top quality Poker4Charity/Game for Life Clothing.

No more trips to GA (that's Giorgio Armani not Gamblers Anonymous) for our lucky winners.

I am looking for a location central to most people. As you can imagine some will be happier than others but I believe we will either reach a result that pleases most people or p***es most people off. For that read Middle England - comutting distance from London, North West, Wales and at a push the North East (I always get the wrong end of the stick). If the response is big enough we will hold one in the South and one in the North.

Looking forward to meeting you Ben.
