Given half the people are going to knocked out on the first day, most after playing for no more than 2 hours, are they going to get £50 worth of food and drink?

 

Yep.

How?

Could you swerve the £50 and pay as you go for the grub ?

That would probably cause more problems, everyone expects a decent buffet. Most poker players are fatty bum bums too, and could each easily wade through £50 of sausage rolls and satay chicken skewers during the first break.

To be fair, its only those of us who value a £ who will notice, as has already been said, 90% of the field will be sponsored players, the other 10% have big ego's and will pretend they dont notice it.

PS. Prediction: MC staking thread within 24 hours of this one

Lol, I'm still bummed that it's not in Barcelona!

Not sure I would be able to get £3k's worth of backing, plus field will probably be stronger if it is in London...

Yes - EPT London is in effect £4850+£400, which is 8.2% juice.

How?

The £50 will be in the form of a voucher given to each player

Why give a £50 voucher to each player instead of just telling them that they have to pay for their food and drink?

'You have to give us £50 so we can give you a voucher worth £50 for you to spend'.

So if you're there all week do you have to make the £50 last all week? How much of the £50 voucher should players spend on the first day?

I'm sure that the places that the £50 voucher can be redeemed at will also accept actual money.
