Neil, will there be seat only sats to Prague and is it possible to sell the accomodation that comes with the normal package?

Does anybody know anything about dates and location for EPT Grand Final?

Same for EPT Sanremo, schedule not yet available?

I have also heard of some possible extra locations as for Malta, Cyprus and San Marino, can anyone confirm?

Thanks

Neil what about making some of the side events ante from start? The first 4 lvls of the 1-2k´s are sooooooo boring

When will you upload EPT7 London feature table vids?

Hi All,

Marek - 67 - There will be seat only Sats for Prague. As for selling your room, the procedure is this...

Contact PS at registrations@pokerstars.com and tell them you don't want your room. We will add your room to our available list and if we have someone for it, you will be credited in T Money. Most of the time we can fill the rooms because so many people want to be in the PS Hotel. There are no guarantees though, other than playing a seat only satellite

I know a lot of people try and resell their rooms through the marketplace on here. The problem with that is if the person you give it to does something to the room and it is under your name, the hotel will go after you for the charges and PS won't be able to help you because we will have you listed as the person responsible for the room (happened a couple of times that I am aware of). Also, if you ask us to resell the room and we do, then you do it yourself, the guy we book for the room will get it.

Kaka - 77 - No news as of yet...

9's - 78 - Watch for when the Deauville Schedule comes out

Hey Neil, matt affleck here..

Question about EPT registration for washington state players with the recent ban

Im considering comming out to Prague and if i did would want to play the 3k hu event which is likely to sell out even before live registration opens..

how can i guarentee a seat since i cannot reg through the stars client?

Hi All,

Just a note to let everyone know that both the EPT Barcelona and the EPT Prague parties are on the Final Table night. The last night we are in town. Saturday the 27th in Barcelona and Saturday, December 18th in Prague. So don't plan on flying home early

As for the EPT Barcelona party...

From Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/EuropeanPokerTour

PARTY TIME IN BARCELONA!

The PokerStars EPT Barcelona party is taking place at Catwalk, one of Barcelona’s hottest clubs.

The party starts at 21:00 on Saturday, November 27, with tapas, an open bar until 1am and a wealth of entertainment. The two-floor club is one of the most popular in Barcelona and just a stone’s throw... from the tournament area at Casino Barcelona. All EPT Main Event players and accredited media are invited.

Two top DJs will be playing – Electronica/House specialist Xavi Beat from Barcelona and celebrated Argentinan DJ Nico Hamuy.

Entertainment will also include Go Go dancers from the famous Pacha Club in Ibiza.

You don’t have to save up your partying until Saturday night however. Catwalk is the official EPT party place and all players with a party wristband will be able to access the venue, free of charge, from Wednesday night onwards (November 24). There’s normally a €20 entrance fee.

bump for matts ?

Hi Pro,

I spoke with Matt in LA about it. Waiting for a response to my inquiries on his behalf before I can give a response to him.

Neil i sent you a PM but i figure others might be curious, your rules for registering online/winning packages as it applies to patches are constantly changing

for the PCA if i direct buy in (hotel and tourney package) or win a seat is there any difference in terms of my requirement to wear a stars patch, are all players who register/sat in on pokerstars required to wear a stars patch if asked to now?

Neil, is EPT Prague venue a casino?

I am looking for bank wire information to get cash to the tournament assuming i cant buy in through PStars client.

It's being held at the Hilton in Prague.

cardplayer has the dates for ept copenhagen as feb 17-22 but the ept website has 21-26. I assume ept website is right but just curious if it changed one way or the other

.

Neil, this one is about PCA (moderator, you may want to start separate thread for PCA apart from this one? Your call):

1. Will it be possible to DBI for some of the other events via the Stars client? T$ ok, or only "hard" US$?

2. Need info on wiring cash into Atlantis (and back out, hopefully) I've noticed that a lot of casinos and card rooms are much more accommodating about receiving wires than they are about sending them. I guess if Atlantis is able/willing to cut paper check when it's time to leave, that's ok, too.

bump need to find this out ASAP

Neil, as I explained in another thread the EPT Hotel in London still owes me 800 pounds because their system was down and they don't respond to my email. Can you guys please try and make contact with them so I can get my money back? It's been several months now, thanks.

Hi All,

9's - 78 - EPT Deauville Schedule didn't get that one in. I'm going to try for Berlin or Grand Final (if that works the way I want it to )

Marton - 79 - Which vids do you mean? The Video blogs go up pretty quickly. If you mean the actual TV shows, those don't go up until after we broadcast them on television. I'll see if I can get a broadcast schedule from the TV Team.

McMatto - 82 - For now, the answer is no, sorry.

Fatal - 86 - Apologies on the delay. I am verifying that the PCA rules will be the same as the EPT rules. I will get you an answer as soon as possible.

EDIT - Fatal - The rule is – using the Pokerstars Client to enter any of the EPT/PCA Live Events allows PokerStars the right to brand you at their discretion. This includes all forms of entry (T$, DBI, FPP, Sat, etc...) available thru the PokerStars Client. You cannot wear any other logos.

As a courtesy to professional poker players with Sponsorship from companies other than PokerStars, a limited exception is made. If you are a full time, sponsored pro of a legitimate third party site, you can DBI through the PokerStars Client and are allowed to wear your Sponsors Logo providing you notify us of your Sponsorship and we can verify such. However, if a legitimately sponsored third party pro qualifies through the Pokerstars Satellite System, they will not be allowed to wear their Sponsors logos, but will not be required to wear PokerStars branding either.

McMatto - 87 - Email registrations@pokerstars.com and they will sort you out with the wire details.

Funki - 89 - EPT is right, Cardplayer is wrong. The casino changed the dates, sorry.

Neil. Is another player allowed to buy me in to pet tournaments through their pokerstars acct

Hi McMatto,

Unfortunately you are stuck with the same problem as before. During EPT London, when someone requested to buy someone else in, all registrations did was transfer the amount to the other players account and register them in. The DBI Lobby on the client needs a user ID to enter into the lobby. Since you can't have an account, there is nowhere to send the money.

Your only possible option is to wire money directly to PokerStars and tell us exactly what events it is for. You can't just send us $30K, but if you sent us a wire and specifically said...

Event 1, 3, 9, 14, 25, 37 = $X,XXX, that is the only way. Email registrations@pokerstars.com and they will give you details if you want them.

Neil,

Pertaining to your reply to Fatal Error, does this mean I can DBI online with the hotel package as well and not be bound to wearing a Stars logo since I am a UB pro?

Hi Roothlus,

Yes you can. As a courtesy to Sponsored Pros of legitimate 3rd Party Sites, we allow those pros to DBI through our system. The only thing that would affect it is if you qualfied through PS for the event.

Cheers,

Neil

ub is legitimate?
