Head office staff at poker companies don"t work over the weekend so there won"t be any further news released over the next couple of days. However the dates and location of the first event are there for everyone now.

Hmmm... I"m taking that as a probable almost definite NO to sats for March event in Coventry. Rather than a possibilty of sats to March event in Coventry but NOT on Betfair. Until advised to the contrary of course.
 

Like I said...I know nothing....not even if Betfair are coming back.

My response is based solely on the tight time-frame between an official announcement, which still hasn"t happened, and any cut-off date to allow enough time for the moneys to be sent to the venue.

Factor in that most sats (in S4) were held at the beginning of the week and we"re basically left with the week after next if it can be done at all....with direct buy-in the same week.

Just my opinion.

So could we assume (aware this is all still spec) that event 1 will be either a clickfest or just direct buyin on Betfair or a.n.other site.

I think the days of clickfests are behind us...the technology has moved on.

Direct buy-in via "insert sponsor here" seems likeliest.

Of course, there is the possibility that the trigger will get pulled early on Monday and short notice satellites could be run next week with another round the week after followed by the direct buy-in.

Is the possible takeover/sale of ongame holding up APAT?

This got me thinking (what else can you do as you wait for Season 5 to be announced)... so I did some online research...

Nice work Outlander. But...
Why would any sale of the OnGame Network or move of BWin players to Party effect APAT games, the traffic on normal Betfair games would take a hit sure.
Betfair are currrently ignoring any questions about what will happen and whether they will buy it, but I cant see it affecting the "soon" to arrive announcement, unless they are saying we cannot give added value because the network will be in decline or they are saving their pennies to buy the network (shudder). From what I"ve read BWin will probably be clever and wait until there are developments in the US to increase the price they can charge.

To bring it back to topic, are we even back on Betfair?

[Joker161]

In America from 19th March to 4th April.

Oops.

See you all at the 2nd event (whenever that is, if I"m free!).
