If the Scottish leg is in Edinburgh again try to avoid a six nations weekend as hotel prices go through the roof.

I only have good things to say about Season 10. The Apat/Grosvenor partnership has been a great success in my opinion.
There are over fifty Grosvenor Casinos throughout the UK, many of them equipped with Poker Rooms (and bars) big enough to manage an onslaught of excited players. Apat have benefitted from being able to arrange venues easier and more quickly and have had online satellites into their 'Live' tournaments on the Grosvenor Online platform.
Grosvenor has benefitted by gaining more members in the Casino and online, which in turn will lead to more awareness of their own comps 25/25 .seasonal comps and Goliath etc.
In each of the Apat Main Event tournaments that I attended I found the Grosvenor staff to be friendly and efficient. What more can you ask for.
The WCOAP was the highlight. I haven't been to many in the past but I certainly found out what I had been missing. I personally wasn't successful but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The atmosphere was fantastic at Manchester G. The Poker Room is one of the biggest outside of London and the Cardroom manager is excellent. His dealers respect him and are professional.
And last but not least the players have had a hell of a lot of added value from the partnership. Grosvenor added seats into their own gukpt and seasonal tournaments worth hundreds of pounds over the Apat season. This included the extra online Apat Christmas Cracker as well as the online Main Events.
The Destination Vegas packages were a one off promotion celebrating 10 years of Apat. Flights, Hotel and entry into the wsop bracelet event WOW not cheap.
On the subject of the WCOAP side events for Season 11. I do not have a preference for one or another, they are all a learning curve for me ,Stud, Razz and even Omaha I have had little experience with so far. So I will go with the flow on that one.

I pretty much agree with everything Paulie said when it comes to the WCOAP...
For the other stops, trying to make them all mini festivals would be great.. maybe vary the Friday night game completely, NLHE side at 8pm sat and a PLO variant on Sundays just 1 hour after the main resumes
