The Grosvenor Brighton Main Event only took 10 runners. Are these festivals on the way out?

APAT + two brighton festivals + EPT starting tuesday + millions of festivals next month was probably the cause. |

If the players are the same as when I used to play there they probably split it 9 ways.

we've discussed this in a big thread a while ago...the schedule is simply too crowded (so much that there's isn't a free date in 2007 for bb5), so the thin end of the wedge is the non-added value/ non GUKPT/GBPT/EPT festivals..especially away from the big poker catchment area venues such as Walsall/Blackpool etc

This - 10 runners at the Grosvenor Brighton Main Event - was very easy to predict, & was always gonna happen. For those not aware, there are two Poker Venues in Brighton - the Grosvenor, & the Rendezvous. And they BOTH ran a Festival this week, with Main Events clashing. Hard to believe, but true. The Rendezvous Main Event was clearly better supported, as 16 made it through to Day Two, including one Chopper Flush. 16 way chop, anyone? That aside, how bizarre to have two Festivals in the same Town in the same week. The two Venues are about a mile apart. |

Another point is that there were no online sats for Brighton Grosvenor. Blue Square dont want to detract from the GUKPT....but their casinos that run these "other" festivals are going to suffer. If they want to compete against Rendevous (and vice versa !).....online sats (with some added value) would help.

Hardly worth getting out of bed for. Just do a deal on hand one. Based on height or something. Then go down the pub. |

The Gutshot Main Event was sold out... as per usual. Is this simply due to location? Would the Grosvenor Brighton event have attracted more if it was the same structure? ie. A £500 No Limit Hold'Em Freezeout with 20k chips and 90 minute levels.

Don't forget,
Torquay held the Golden Sands last week.
Players need to re-charge their batteries and/or lick their wounds. Special promos are the order of the day.
Gone are the days, even though the venue is excellent, the players will not just turn up without a carrott or two.
