5 Months of waiting ?!?!? Is this not a little too long?

Hi

Just wondering why you are selling the seats so early.

I want to play all the events, but not too keen on shelling out £200 for comps that do not start until August!

What is the reason for this?

Mayfair:
Its a WSOP thing.

Its to give you a chance to get some sponsorship in place and get some
coaching from top class pros, up your profile etc... before the TV
cameras roll and someone has a life changing moment.  ;)

Jon MW:
Good answer Mayfair.

But I think it"s primarily for planning.

Most people can arrange time off, get good deals etc with 5 or 6 weeks notice.

But if you want a really good deal on travel and hotels then this lead in time is ideal.

There might be other reasons also.

The venue must have a say.

To plan a weekend in Nottingham??

5 months is a little extreme.

Planning yes, but shelling out for a poker comp not starting for 5 months - am i the only one who thinks this is just wrong?
