Comments
turn up and go to the Sky Poker Welcome desk in recpetion, give your name
Simple as that
All the other instructions as in the player briefing
Direct Buy in available now too
I think tables may be an issue tho, best endevours will be made!
Pop along as the SPT is always very friendly
Have fixed the error!
do you only get 5000 strting stack in the main event ,all other comps seem to have a deeper stack ,Why ?
The side events have far fewer runners, and although the starting chipos may be higher the structures are usually quicker
The SPT Two day structures have 15,000 starting, befitting the much greater time available
welcome desk will be running from midday
