    What do most people do when going to these events? drive down and stay over, have a few drinks etc? - or is it it a case of going down, playing then driving home?

    R there hotels/bnb's etc around? I wudnt like to have to go n come bak, maybe stay over a couple of nights, have a night out, play some cash games the next day etc - long way to go down from south yorkshire just for a 1 off sorta thing.....

    Anyone plan to stay over or owt? - Wud like to play and meet some of u guys.

    Yeah would be great if there is a local hotel with a good rate on through Sky.

    I'm only 30mins away but wouldn't mind having a good drink and a few games with some guys off here.

    If worst comes to worst Im happy to let someone kip up at mine and then head down again the next day for a tourny.

    So there's no direct buyin? I'm very tempted to try and go...

    I have family/friend in cambridge and MK which isn't too far away. alternatively i'd find somewhere as cheap as possible.

    There are no plans to facilitate direct buy-ins, so if you really wish to play the Luton Leg, Satellites are the only certain route.

    There were no plans to offer direct buy-ins for Newcastle, it's fair to say, but the weather did cause "a few" headaches, & taking all things into consideration, a few Direct Buy-Ins were made available a day or so before the Event.

    What "fiasco" are you referring to? By general concensus, the Event was a spectacular success.

    Lol, the last "fiasco" ended up as Sky Poker's funniest ever thread, & it's up to about 20 pages now!

    I think using the word "fiasco" would be called "hyperbole". ;)

    Jeez TK wind yer neck in,as i said it was a "tongue in cheek " remark, as one of the qualifiers who could not travel to Newcastle as i was snowed in,i understood the "debacle-fiasco" as i so obviously offenssively put it,
    I will keep my humourous remarks to myself in future.

    For those who think i was offensive,read my earlier posts where i said i understood all skys decisisions regarding Newcastle,and even offered my seat for free (pretty offensive) when i realised i was unable to go.

    I never suggested it was "offensive", I was just curious what you meant by "fiasco" & "debacle", & if you had a problem, I was keen to help.

    For ME it was a debacle and a fiasco through the weather,and so i wished i waited untill the day to decide wether i wanted to "purchase a seat direct and at no time did i say that sky had made it a fiasco debacle.

    Sir,

    I'm not trying to have a barney here. You said "aint going through the Newcastle fiasco again". I took that to mean you were less than enamoured with something. No more, no less.

    I'm sorry you were unable to attend.

    More impressed with your reply Ads,seeing as this is a light hearted debate forum,and not a insulting room.

    Well other than a few home games I've never played live before so I'm gonna give this a go. I'm sure (hope) they'll be one or two others there in the same boat as me should I qualify.

    You won't regret it Bob, I promise. Lots of the players have never played Live before, but we do stuff to take care of that.
