Where is the updated  list of prizes?

£8000 EPT Package (pokerstars)
Irish Winter Festival Package (William Hill)
Palm Beach Big Game Package (Genting)
Killarney Festival Package (Ladbrokes)
GUKPT Main Event seat (Grosvenor)
3 x $529 PKR Poker packages (PKR)
2 x GUKPT Goliath seats (Blue Sq)
$4,300 of Betfred online poker seats (Betfred)
Skypoker Grand Final seat (SkyPoker)
8 Live superstack seats (888)
Salford Mint Megastack 200 seat (IPE)
English Deepstack Championship seat (The Broadway Casino)
Super Poker Event Europe 2012 seat (SPE)
a full season of academy seats (Blackbelt Poker)
Sporting Memorabilia (Redtooth)

And £25 from each player, hopefully if we get 400 runners that is an additional £10,000

Still waiting for a couple of other prizes hopefully? :/

If anybody knows of any company that wants some decent publicity by donating anything no matter how small, please get them to get in touch, doesn't have to be poker related. TY

The distribution of prizes will be decided on the day, dependent on how many runners. I will try and be as fair as possible with the distribution of the prizes and they will be announced and displayed once reg is over. I will try and give similar "monies worth" of prizes as if it were a normal comp.

There may well be a raffle, but we need some donated prizes to get this going. At the moment we have a signed John Terry England Shirt, if we do not get any more "raffle" prizes, this maybe part of the prizepool.

Hope this answers all your questions.

There will also be representatives of Help For Heroes there on the day, selling there wares.

Any serviceman past or present thinking of playing, it would be nice if you could wear your colours.

Also for those wondering about the PKR change, we originally had 2 packages for the Fox's main event, but due to the fact we had to change the date this is not possible as it is too late. They have kindly replaced those prizes with 3 prize packages to PKR’s biggest online events – The Masters ($270 buy-in), The Prestige($109 buy-in) and The High Roller ($150 buy-in).  Each package will have one ticket to each of the three events for a total value of $529 each.

Again this is dependent on the amount of runners, if we get 400 runners then I would like to pay 36 places, 300 runners 27 places, 200 runners 18 places, If we only get 200 runners then yes some of the prizes may be included in a raffle (hoping this wont be the case though Wink )

she has come second two days in a row!!!!

she says she had AK suited but was willing to flip against you because she felt you would outplay her heads up !!

well done on your sat win we will both be there

its a fantastic cause and i am a little disappointed in the amount of runners the Sat's got

good luck in the comp

Good morning Richard,

Will you be working on Friday? If so, I would like to have a moment with you to discuss Poker for Heroes.

Thanks.
