    It looks like you get £1,000 if you won a seat from a sat through another route other than this promo, see point 11. below

    Terms & Conditions

    1. By taking part in any of the Team Sky Poker UKPC Leagues you have the opportunity of winning one seat to the Sky Poker UK Poker Championship Main Event, worth £1,000, at Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham.

    2. The whole festival will run from Sunday 22nd February to Sunday 1st March 2015. Players will be playing Day 1D of the Main Event which takes place on Friday 27th February starting at 13:00pm. Any qualifying players must make sure that they are also able to play on the 1st March 2015, which is the Final. No alternative cash or prize will be given to a player who wins a package but is not available to take part. The package will be offered to the next eligible qualifier.

    3. You may participate and enter any of the league promotions as many times as you wish however you may only win a maximum of one (1) Sky Poker UKPC Main Event seat. This includes seats that are won via satellites or any other means. This includes winning leagues across the different game formats; only 1 seat will be awarded. 

    4. The Promotion will run from 1st January at 00:00:01 until January 28th 2015 at 23:59:59. Weekly leagues are divided as follows: 1st - 7th January (Week 1) 8th - 14th January (Week 2) 15th - 21st January (Week 3) and 22nd-28th January (Week 4). Each weekly promotion will begin on the above start date at 00:00:01 until the above end date at 23:59:59.

    5. Players will be provided with accommodation for Friday 27th February and Saturday 28th February at the Holiday Inn Castle Marina in Nottingham. Breakfast for two mornings will be provided along with the hotel stay, but no other meals are included. A minibus will be available to transport players to the venue only; no other transport arrangements will be made. Should a player wish to extend their stay at the hotel, they are obliged to pay a further fee, set by the hotel - of which Sky Poker is not affiliated with.

    6. A share of £4000 will be paid out to players who place 2nd and below, in each of the leagues each week. No extra cash will be paid out along with first prize. The cash breakdown is final with only the top 100 earning a specified share of the £4000. Where players tie for league points all players will be paid the specified amount.

    11. A £1000 cash alternative will be paid for any player who manages to qualify for a place on Team Sky Poker after already having won a seat via satellite or any other means outside of the Team Sky Poker Promotion. If a player wins two leagues, or any format twice within the TSP Promotion, they will only win one UKPC seat, and will not be given any cash alternative. The next eligible player will qualify.

  • edited January 2015
    I'd send Tikay a message and say you want the honour of representing Sky as a member of Team Skypoker. and if you win could you still get the extra benefits that go with the package.

    Lol not intentionally. I was actually thinking about this for myself on week one when I was close to the top of the board. The free hotel would be an added bonus, but representing Sky as a sponsored player when I've been with the site since pretty much day 1 would be a great feeling.... 2 weeks left to make it happen!

    Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if one of the many people with 30+ points were to get a FT finish in either main or mini which could potentially put them on top. Sure Bearlythere and joseman will be gunning for it tonight!!

    I'm 11000 points ahead in STT league which looks pretty locked up but haven't counted my chickens yet either haha!
