My application was completed a 9:02 and I did not get a seat! So this is not the an amatuer poker championship its for computer wiz"s that can fill debit forms in quickly! Surely this is not fair

i find myself agreeing with this comment !!!  maybe it would be better to have seats via satellite only,,,at least then it would be based on poker ability rather than computer skills,,,,,and judging by the satellite entrys for walsall it would still easily be a sell out,,,,,just an idea,,,cant be easy for those who work so hard to organise these events,,keep up the good work,,it is appreciated !!!!!

Satellite only would exclude everybody who doesn"t play poker online.

i wonder what percentage of non online players made it to walsall,,i think it will be minimal,,surely we should cater for the majority ???  i could be wrong i suppose lolol

Are the "majority" not already catered for?

The current system gives more opportunities for online players than purely live players as they have the additional option of the satellites.

But the current system does still give an opportunity for everybody to get in.

If there were a choice between catering for the majority and cater for the minority then catering for the majority would be a good idea.

But when it"s a choice between catering for the majority and catering for everybody then I think the "everybody" is the best option.
