Q2. I prefer not to deceive or sidestep, but I can't actually answer that question right now, as some "stuff" needs to be sorted first. For now, the answer will have to be cautiously restricted to..... "it's possible a TSP-er could - if the player(s) was capable of earning enough Points - earn enough to gain entry into the WSOP Main. That would be after they have earned enough to fulfil their UK TSP committments, which require them to get onto the UK Scene regularly." There is a cleaner, sharper answer, & brevity is always good, but for now, I'll have to leave it at that. Be assured, the matter has been discussed & debated at length by the Suits, & a clear conclusion arrived at.
Not sure if the second part was a yes or a no but I hope a couple, if not all, of them get to play in the ME along with the qualifiers. If LML is going though, I will blow my BR trying to qualify
and same to mike, minty, seaford and dac.

Or you can buy-in direct to tonight's Semi-Final for £120.
Don't forget, qualifying is easier in the early stages, so now is the time to book those airline tickets to sunnier climes.
They say that every great journey begins with one small step.
Now if I could only remember just where I left my game.........
Well done both

The next VLV Final will be on January 30th, & there will FIVE Finals in all this year, being January, February, March, April, & May.
It has been decided to change the payout structure for the "Seat Bubble", that is to say, the player who misses the Seat by one spot.
Previously, ALL the "spare" money went to the seat bubble. This resulted in as much as £9,000 in two cases being awarded where there were, say, 19, or 29, runners.
With immediate effect, this will now change.
The "left over" element of the Prize Pool - the cash element - will be split into THREE, on the basis of 50%, 30%, & 20%.
So, if there are, say, 25 runners, there will be two £10,000 packages, with £5,000 "left over".
This £5,000 would be split 50%, 30% & 20% to the THIRD, FOURTH & FIFTH places.
If there were 18 runners, & thus 1 £10k package, the £8,000 would be split 50%, 30% & 20% between 2nd, 3rd & 4th places.
This change will remain in place until further notice, though, like all things, the Suits will re-examine it &/or modify it in the light of player-experience.
All constructive feedback welcome.
As at today, nine players are already in January's Final, good luck them.
Who's coming to Vegas, then?
With 4 Quarter-Finals still to go this week, we already have ELEVEN players into Sunday's Semi-Final. I think Sunday's Semi will be close to 30 runners, which, if achieved, would send 3 more players into the Final on January 30th. I'm pretty sure the Monthly Final on January 30th will make at least 2 full Viva Las Vegas packages.
We now have FIFTEEN players qualified for Sunday's first Monthly Final.
Phone calls to the winner(s) will probably happen on Monday. Happy days!
Here's the 15 so far, as at Tuesday evening.
The last Semi-Final for the January Final will take place at, I think, 5pm (1700 hours, FIVE PM) on Sunday.
