im up for either but for the $700 package think the extra cash goes a long way to paying for hotels and travel  ;D ;D

Rumours are that this event is selling very quickly and they are expecting a sellout.

Don"t be fooled by the numbers showing in the Betfair lobby as seats are being allocated and sold in a number of ways.


I"m told that there are about 35 seats left for direct buyin, with a further 20 allocated for satellites.


So if you want to play, I suggest getting a move on.

I have spoken with the powers that be at Betfair, and they are happy to setup some additional satellites, but I"d need to be sure that there is the demand for it.

Suggestions are

$50 Freezeout for either a $400 seat or a $700 package

$20 Rebuy for either a $400 seat or a $700 package


There wouldn"t be any guaranteed seat/package with these, so if we didn"t get the runners, then it would just payout the cash as normal.  I might be able to talk them into having them without any reg fee aswell.

This all comes down to the demand from APAT players, so let"s be avin" yer   ;D


Any word on this yet Leigh?  Noticed todays post says that seats are selling out but that some are saved for satellites, are these just going to be for the Sunday night sats or are they planning others?

Certainly be interested in playing sats for this but as someone else said, no turbos please. Don"t mind turbos but with big fields they tend to turn into bingo.

I think that we could swing some extra satellites, but the response on here certainly hasn"t been enough yet to make me ask.

We really need 10-15 people interested to make it a starter.

Have you tried asking elsewhere on the forum? I don"t normally look at this bit and only stumbled on it by accident.

Failing that just make it a $10 rebuy with me, you and Tony. Invite Duke and we can guarantee at least 2 seats.  :)

I would most likely play the $50 freezeout for a package.

The "extra" tournament is now in the Betfair Lobby for tonight at 8pm.

It"s a $5 freezeout , with the winner getting a $400 ticket for a seat at Betfair Poker London Live!

The seat is added value, with the prizepool then split normally from 2nd down, depending on runners.

I"m up ridiculously early tomorrow, so may not be about to see the end of this tonight.  Good luck everyone.

I know quite a few who would play either of the satellites think there be plenty of interest and the more apaters the better
