Plenty of time to win a seat man.  A good few weeks tae a month at least i"d reckon before it"s sold out.

Won my seat at first attempt tonight

Just bought in direct for £22, 3 seats awarded and 4-handed I went from comfortable to one of shorties after the QQ was cracked by a shorties push with K2. I thought for a minute I was going to bubble but luckily got through. Looking forward to playing on home soil. What"s the procedure now Des or Tighty? Do I just turn up on the day or do I need to do anything more?

[CrizzyConnor]

Oh and cheers to Kenny for the railage!

I believe it"s just turn up on the day.  But I"m sure his royal tightness can confirm that.

My 1st ever live game this will be - ahhhhh!


"Saturday 8th May play starting at 2:00pm. Sky Poker Staff will be available in reception from 12.00pm, please see them at the Welcome desk on arrival."

"Registration will take place on the day and is available 24/7 and we encourage Sky Poker players to register as early as possible.

Players can leave the venue after registration but we encourage you to be back in your allocated seats by 1.45pm (for a 2.00pm start). However, it is not obligatory to be in your seat at the start of the event."

Hope this helps

20mins drive or so to the ALEA myself anyway

[CrizzyConnor]

Cheers mate. You should jump up the Merchant City casino or something for a few practice live games before this. The players are bingo merchants but it gets you used to the live play, I remember my first couple of live games I was really nervous and making stupid mistakes so i"d recommend giving it a bash sometime before this! I can"t wait to play a meaningful game and being able to go home to my own bed for once at the end of the night, or sneak out the backdoor when I get knocked out early as is normally the case

[Denham]

nps pal

haha, funny u saying that m8 - i seen the gala casino in the merchant city dae a "beginner night" oan Wednesday"s for a £10 buy-in freezeout, so was actually thinking of geein that a few goes prior to this spt live one.  Tad nervous about my 1st live game lol but av been playing oanline for over 2 years now and im on like 8+ poker sites now and play oanline all the time so be great tae get a few live cheap games in prior to the spt game to get some live experience.

what"s the turnout like m8 at the gala if you know?

p.s - are you from dalmuir/clydebank coz i recognise your name and yer pic lol

[CrizzyConnor]

Aye i"m from Dalmuir, thought I recognized your name but wasn"t sure.
There"s a few people who play the APAT games from Clydebank, one or two of us on the forum too.

I"ve no been to the Merchant in ages, don"t really play much poker live in Glasgow anymore but last I knew it was getting around 50-60 runners for the Wed game and finish about 12-12:30 if you get to the money. It"s a good game to pass the time and get used to the live atmosphere. You can regularly cash if you play solid ABC but do be prepared to crash out against Jx, Qx or Kx suited - they just can"t muck those suited cards up there, ever!

[Denham]

lol cool man, i know who ye are then  

i moved away fae pishy Jellicoe Street when a wiz like 16 lol.  Big red clock still there in Dalmuir aye?  Pure miss a roll & fritter fae Maxim"s lol

cheers for the info man oan the live game in glasgow.  Aye be baws wae aww the bingo players but deffo gonna gee it a go tae get used tae the live atmosphere.

[CrizzyConnor]

[Denham]
