In Response to Re: Satellites to UKIPTs and/or GUKPTs? : I'm afraid you are wrong on almost every count there, Donald. Those in favour of this proposal should ignore that Post in it's entirety. IF Sky Poker & the other party reach agreement (it's already agreed with Management, it just awaits Board approval), & IF Sky Poker take up their option to run satellites to Events on that Tour, Sky Poker players would be free to wear whatever apparel they so wish. Whether Sky Poker would ask/request that the players wear Sky Poker apparel has yet to be addressed, but the Tour would have no absolutely issues with that whatsoever. Posted by Tikay10

Tikay i actually replied to Browndogs post before i read the rest of the thread, Thanks for replying to me.
What i read was pactifically if you bought in direct via the pokerstars network for UKIPT Newcastle. Something which ive actually been saving up to do just for the experiance with little travel. I will be doing the same for UKIPT Edinburgh.
As you mentioned this never mentioned should anything be agreed between the tour and a different site. Infact i would support tour event sats comming from Sky as i prefer (as many do) Skys satelltie structure. I recently done a sat for UKIPT Cork and could get nothing but rebuys till the semi final heat.
The GUKPT i know very little about in honesty.
Again i do not know which tour sky are in talks with nor will i ask as its quite clear that may effect any end results or desisions.
I havent voted purley because i do think i have a big enough influence on this as i havent been playing here of late. However i support the idea of Sky having sats to these tours and i really would like to see it happening.
This idea moved a step - a big step - nearer reality today, watch this space.
It is now down to Sky Poker to move it forward, we have the green light, so we just gotta sort some itty-bitty legalities & details.
And if we do, then we'll see if we can all walk the walk as well as talk the talk. I mean, if we get this baby up & running, & there is a lack of interest from the players, who have supported it massively on this Thread, none of us will look too good.
Could be quite interesting, this.......more news soon.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE try and get it ready for GUKPT Walsall :-) .. It's close to me and its bank holiday weekend so no time off work... I will love you for ever...
