Sky Poker Tour
I'm fairly new to Sky in terms of actually being involved in the community and watching channel 865. I enjoy playing live so much more than online (though I do still love playing online) and I'd love to get myself down to some of the SPT legs. Sadly I can't make it to Nottingham (even if I could qualify) because of other commitments that weekend.
This might be a bit premature but I'm just trying to find out, when will the SPT legs start again in 2012 if it is 2012 when they start up again? Do they change the cities they take place in each year? If so I'm from Liverpool so I guess Blackpool and Leeds are the ones that would be a reasonable distance.
How much are the satellites usually for SPT legs? And when do they usually start running? How long before the SPT leg goes do you get to qualify? a month or two?

Hi Lambert......
Wow, LOTS of questions there......but I'll try & answer what I can.
The Sky Poker Tour for 2011/12 has not been confirmed or announced yet......but if you
watch the Show on Channel 865 Thursday of NEXT week, you may hear some news about it.
Note I left a big gap betwen the lines so you can better read between them.....
The cities/venues vary from year to year. Yes, Blackpool - hypothetically of course - would be the nearest to Liverpool.
Satellite costs vary from Event to Event, but will be, largely, similar to this year, though, again hypothetically, some might be more expensive, & some cheaper.....
Satellites for each Leg usually start as soon as the previous Leg has taken place, & usually sell out within 2 to 3 weeks.
Well seen as the venues change each year, I'll have my fingers crossed for one being in Liverpool or Manchester...
And looks like I'll have to be on the ball when it comes to qualifying. I'm sure I'll manage fine though, should have a pretty nice BR from my cash grinding by the time it gets round to playing the satellites. Who knows, maybe I could get the 10,000 points to be in the priority club and buy-in direct by that point
thanks tikay. hypothetically is blackpool the nearest venue for those in edinburgh?
Hypothetically means a thespian hippo
thankyou
Nearest likely venue to Cornwall for next year would be Bristol, Coventry, Birmingham, Nottingham though the venues have not been arranged yet
We will try to diversify geograhpically, as always
What a noob I was
