Thanks - I did look before I asked, but couldn"t find the answer

Second question - is anyone going to be there for the first weekend who might be interested in sharing a hotel room?

Just to let all potential players know, Aspers is offering free car parking at Westfield for all poker players throughout February & March which obviously covers the dates of the worlds.

Just a couple of minuses for me.

Disappointed that the PLO is only a one day game this year but to give way to a two day 8 game is more than acceptable. Really unhappy that the 8 game is twice the entry of every other side event, if we want to get people who maybe haven"t tried the more unusual games, this isn"t the way.

Plusses: 8 game on the menu, everything else

Well done APAT.............again

That moment when you realise your birthday party is the same day as the 8 game.

Are you going to be in London for it? We will ensure that you get to celebrate in APAT style.

The free parking....do you just park up and they verify your ticket when you leave?

[BOINGBLITZ]

....and how long is late entry for the PLO8 please?

Enter Car Park B, take the disc, and try and park in row 104 or as near as you can, which is right near the lifts directly into the casino. Take the disc to the receptionist and they will validate it after checking that you are a member. It"s valid for 24 hours.

Any news on the individual structures for the events?

I have looked at last year"s and guess most will be the same/similar.

Mainly interested in the OFC.

Hi Tom

Any news on this? with only 5 days until the 8 game it would be great to see a structure and more importantly are we playing 6 handed or 8 handed with utg and utg+1 sitting out of 2-7 hands?

Thanks

[daveyt86]

Has anyone got late reg details for each event?

Cheers

For simplicity sake, it should play 6 handed.  What I would like to know is whether it"s one orbit of each game regardless of blind level (WSOP style).... or whether it"s one game per blind level (Pokerstars style).

The WSOP structure would make for a better event, but the one game per blind level version would be easier to TD.

Got to disagree there Steve, as much as i love 6 handed, it only affects 2-7 so I think 8 handed would be fine for this event

Ideally the tourney should be one game per orbit, and that means people miss out on 2-7TD.  Hate the complexity and disparity it adds to the game - much cleaner to just play it 6 handed
