A few of my mates are looking to play in a semi frequent MTT around Leeds, roughly £10-£30 buy in.

TBH the actual comp is secondary we just want somewhere to have a relaxing time and enjoy ourselves without people taking is as the world series..

Not been played comp in leeds since sky tour 18months ago (i remember coz daughter was born and I met Teekay).

Alea is still my favourite place to play. Nice group of people. Comps don't get huge amounts of runners but they don't finish at silly o clock either which is a good thing IMO.

I think Friday is £30+£10 bounty. Any other night is safely within your budget I believe.

Tournaments don't seem anything special but they're usually running a final table if I stumble in at midnight for some cash. Not sure what the tournaments actually are though. Probably £10 second chances or something like that.

Yeah, Leeds doesn't know what "double chance" actually means.

Alea scam, pretty sure the boss used to work at Moortown Smiley

Update: Infact I know him he indeed worked at Moortown lives close coz he attends the catholic church there. Sad times.
