    It doesn't actually, now The Refurbed Grosvenor Cardroom is a bit small and Les Croups signalled that they were not so keen on hosting us, going forward (down to resourcing and their costs, not down to a dislike of Sky Poker) So, it can be trickier than it seems....

    really? the card room manager was telling everyone how pleased with how the spt went the folowing weekend even going as far as saying it was the most profitible weekend the casino has had since they moved location and they where looking forward to 2013 date

    Hi Alf, yes the card-room manager was pleased

    The problem (which may not be a problem now, views change) was higher up. All amicable, and subject to change I hope

    Having worked for 2 major poker leagues and jointly owned one the only charge the casino ever made was if you wanted it dealer dealt they would host and lay on food without charge so I do not understand the cost coming into it for a Scottish leg.

    Cost is definitely one of the issues we deal with with regard to any venue, Scottish or not.

    Of course, but not just yet (no event in January, so no pressing rush) As soon as I have a release date will let you know

    whats the reason sky is not releasing next years dates,,, they must all be finalised.

    most of us work or have other commitments, we need to plan around.
    flights/hotels are cheaper if booked in advance,,, so why not just tell us the dates,,,,, PLAY THE GAME SKY

    I would think it will be the other side of Xmas now

    Some plans changed, and all will become clear

    Rest assured that no event will be at short notice and everyone will have plenty of opportunity to make their plans, book time off, make cheap advance bookings etc

    Apologies for the delay.

    joesman1: You should also realise that SPT Cardiff has also been removed, Sky Poker England and Dublin Tour!!!!!! Why not at least have 1 event in Scotland and 1 in Wales?

    Good morning Gentlemen.

    It's good to know you look forward to these SPT's.

    Apologies for the delay, but we are changing some things this year, & we will let you know just as soon as everything is signed & sealed.

    To a degree, it is "with others" but, fingers crossed, there may be some news in the next few days.  As you will infer from this, it is quite complicated. If we can broker the arrangements we are trying for, it will be worth the wait, imo.

    As always, there will always be plenty of notice for SPT's. All things considered, I very much doubt there wil be an SPT in February now.

    Your patience & understanding is appreciated.

    Thanks for keeping us up to date. I have copied the above over to Gen Poker Chat as the question has been asked every live show since Luton.
