    FAQ:

    Q: Is This a Blapo Members only Event ?
    A: No it is open to anyone who declares they have ever played Pub Poker, regardless of where you normallyplay pub poker.

    Q: Can I buy Tickets in Advance?
    A: Unfortunately not, but we are offering some great incentives for those that register early ie The first 100 get £15 in a poker ac, a Card Guard and get to participate in the poker scratch card game with the chance of winning a PS3

    Q: Why does Registration end 10 mins before the start time of 1pm?
    A: With the anticipated numbers, if everyone turned up 5 mins before the start it would actually take longer to get everyone seated and we would start at 5pm LOL.

    Imagine if everyone turned up to catch a plane 2 mins before departure, it would be chaos so please think of a poker tournament in the same way, Registration starts at 12, Gates close at 12.50.

    Q: Why is it not a freezeout ?
    A: Because this is a one off event - we felt it would be good to offer a lifeline for victims of Bad Beats plus it will make the pot more juicy for the winners.

    Q: How many will get paid ?
    A: 10% of the field plus 1 is the norm - this will be confirmed on the day by Roy your TD

    Q: The Buy in is £15 + 2 how much of those £15's go in the pot - All of Them - plus all of the £10 for re-buys/add ons.

    Q: Why are the Poker Mags coming?
    A: To cover the event, so look brush your hair on the day

    Q: What is your website ?

    2 weeks to go and pub-casino.co.uk are upgrading the £500 Tv they were originally adding on top of the prizepool to a 47" TV it is a monster Check out The London Pub Poker Open Update Thread for more - Please ensure you get to the venue by 12 Noon as this looks like it is going to be a busy event.

    Hi,
    Why not pop down to Loose Cannon this Friday and register with them - they have a £15 tourney. As for ID requirements, sorry but you will need to contact them direct as we are only acting as promoters and have no say at the venue re ID.

    Dunno about this venue but most venues take you as a guest for 48 hours I think and then your membership is valid thereafter.

    The Venue website is Loose Cannon Club

    Cheers
