Not sure at this stage

I would doubt there would be seats straight in on the day as the event should sell out via satellites beforehand

Two opportunities though

- Aspers have an allocation of seats for live satellites. Check with them for dates

- Alternates on the day usually get 20 or so people in from those knocked out in the first few levels


Safest way is to qualify asap, whether live or especially on Sky Poker

I have just finished second in the £12 SPT direct for a £110 seat at Necastle. 1 seat guaranteed. 19 runners total of £209 in the prize pool.

It did not pay anything for second place. Every other tourney would pay £99. It had late reg so no way of knowing how many would end up in it and nothing in the lobby to indicate the payment structure was different to normal.
Have contacted sky through live chat. The lady I spoke to can do nothing and says all tournaments have different rules. Have just emailed complaints at Sky bet.

If I do not get the right answer and £99 I will be on my way to another Site.

DO NOT PLAY THE SPT NEWCASTLE DIRECT UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO BE RIPPED OFF ONE IN TEN MEANS ONE IN NINETEEN
