    Just turn up on the day with your £25. It's not a Sky event, it just runs in DTD and you can register there.

    Lambert will defo hold you to that!

    Regarding the questions about having only online, an SPT weekend is the best time to learn. You might make mistakes but that's how you learn! Don't get bothered by it, the chances are no one at the table will care as everyone has been there when its their first live event. People who have played hundreds of live events still make mistakes.

    At my first live event (which was at DtD) I under raised (eg went to min raise but didn't calculate it correctly!). The dealer made a joke about me being an online player and told me about when he played live for the first time, we then had a bit of banter and I was chatting with some of the other players after this.

    Come along, enjoy yourself and afterwards you will wonder why you thought it would be a problem.

    my first SPT and cant wait to put faces to people I have played for the past couple of years. I met a lot of them last year at DTD when i played a side event. Both myself and my stepson WOOKIEBOY have qualified for the main event so we cant wait to see who wins our side bet as to who lasts longest. look forward to seeing you there.
