Just to clarify is the re-entry position the same as the 6 max in August, ie 1 entry per starting day for the main event if necessary? Was not immediately clear from the schedule

Not quite.

It's a single re-entry per opening day but you can, if you so desire, re-enter the same day in the event of a nasty accident early doors.

Cheers Tikay, shame that, must drive more Recs to these events.

Quite possibly, yes.

One thing in this upcoming UKPC which should, however, interest the Recreationals, is the introduction of a genuine "Mini" Event.

It has a £110 buy-in & a £200,000 Guarantee.

Read that again - £110 Buy-In, & £200,000 Guarantee. The Top 50 will all get a £1,000 Main Event Seat, too.

I really think that, for Recreationals, that's almost as good as it gets.

Completely agree. Best tournament you've done on any of the schedules IMO.
