Whats the latest with this?

Rod, Dave & I are getting a very good rate for flights to Brum just now but I dont want to book until we're sure that our flights fit in with the schedule.

Our plan at the minute is to fly down on the Saturday morning & back on the Monday.

What time are the tourneys expected to start on both days?

Thanks in advance.

teacake the casino can't open before 2pm so a morning flight would be ok i think
i am also planning on flying into brum around 11:30am on the saturday

[Teacake]

Cheers Iron, Saturday morning looks a goer

Count me in and perhaps by then maybe my girlfriend will be interested enough in poker to take part.

Made a bit of a breakthrough last night wrt the girlfriend's interest in the game - I was playing online and about to be outdrawn when the river reversed things and gave me the pot. I let out a cry of 'get in there' and punched the air.  She cottoned on to this and the next time I won a pot she screamed out 'get in there' at the top of her voice. She ended up watching me play for the next hour or so and celebrated every pot I won in the same way, including pots when all folded to my big blind.  Who knows, next she might just want to play the game.

Ohhh a new railbird in training.

She'll be taking you to the poker cleaners soon JR.

[Ironside]

scotsangel might come down and play the £30 comp if she can get someone to cover for her at work

Alright Jack - good on you.

Part of that whole debate about keeping the cost of the blonde tourney down was exactly this - so that the "non-playing" partners can play. This is SO important, both to make the evening a success, & help our partners & loved ones better understand our poker fetish.

So, the more "partners" play, the better, please. Nobody is gonna be shown up.

For example, Ginger would play the event anyway - but there's no reason why the newbie Flushy Fish should not play as well.

not quite confirmed the start time for the £30 yet on the saturday, could possibly be an earl;y start tho. Not my decision but i'm sure the boss (not sure of who yet lol) will post somethin soon.

Sundays £100(tbc) will more than likely be a 9pmish start as per the norm.

already lookin forward to seein you guys in Jan....dont forget the after hours game too hehehehe

The Casino opens at 12 midday for food and drinks every day. I was planning on starting the £30 FO at about 7pm, I will need to confer with Tikay a bit closer to the time, i was thinking 5000 pts on a 45min clock?? Gaming and poker room will be open at 2pm for side games. The £100 FO will start at 9pm. Any special requirements please pm me. This is definately a go, so feel free to book flights. I have not spoken to the hotel yet but it will definately not be a problem.

[Teacake]

Flights booked for Dave, Rod & I
