FAO: SPT-ers in Glasgow

edited April 2010 in The Sky Poker Tour
When are people intending on getting there?

I have worked out I am probably best off flying on the Friday (from London Town), so will be in the area around 4pm (staying at the Epitah (or whatever it is called)), so is anyone going to be around for a few drinks on the Friday night and an ice breaker - never met any of you lot so would be great too.

By the way if anyone is interested:

Ryanair flights
07MAY2010 leaving in the afternoon is about £22, my return flight is 09MAY2010 at 6.50am for £9.99 - that way I can still get back down to London to get to the Emirates for the last league game of the season.

p.s. anyone know which Presenters / analysts will be there?

    Is there a good place to meet up on the friday?, I won't know anyone there, and I assume no one has name badges prior to the main tournament on Saturday, so Fridays will just be a free for all...

    Hotel lobby around 6? or Casino Bar around 6? suggestions or how do I recognise people, might feel a bit strange going upto random people asking if you are from Sky???

    anyone have any idea who from Sky is going too?

    They occasionally run a dealers choice game, £100 buy in on a Friday so i'd imagine anyone who's up for the SPT will be begging for that to start!!! That's how you'll spot the Sky Poker peeps, I'm only 30 miles away but considering getting a hotel for the 2 nights also and making a weekend of it! Best way for it.

    Its cheap, close, I don't expect too many will be using it for its facilities lol.

    Think its cost me less than £80 for 2 nights with breakfast.
