Hi All,

Cookies - 33 - The party is on Friday the 20th. I don't have all the details in front of me. I'll post them tomorrow.

NINJA EDIT - The EPT Berlin party will take place at HomeBase Lounge and is open to all EPT Berlin players and guests (Main and Sides). Details are as follows:

Date: Friday, April 20th
Time: 19:30 til late
Address: Köthener Straße 44, 10963 Berlin


LPG - 34 - Late reg for both days is 2 levels plus break (2 hours 15 min). Buyin for ALL events is at Spielbank, table and seat draw for ALL events is at Spielbank, 3/4 of the tourneys at Hyatt, 1/4 at Spielbank. We have 45 tables in the Hyatt and 20 tables in the Sternberg (that is the room where EPT7 Berlin was held inside the Spielbank last year). The Rebuy Sats and the Turbo Bounties will ALL be held at the Spielbank since there will be no cash allowed at the Hyatt.

Whata - 35 - You can still buyin with PS if you are platinum or above. Email registrations@pokerstars.com. We don't have many PS seats left though, so I would email soon.

Jdpc - 38 - Day 1A and 1B are going to be long. 10 levels plus dinner break. Should finish between 12:00am and 12:30am. 10 hours of play, 45 minutes of break, 75 minutes of dinner break.

Chris - 46 - No skrill for Berlin, but they will be available for Monaco.

Cheers,

BOOM!!!! - can you pls confirm this is for all events not just the main?

[KingDan]

how much should a cab to the hotel cost from Tegel Airport?

[bergeroo]

Dan - should be 25-30 euros I'd say. Possibly less. Tegel is quite central.

[recommending]

after which levels are the breaks for how long neil? thx

[rdrr]

asian dude Dave I met at the casino - didn't get your text so don't have your #, pm me?

[Jakelamotta]

Tournaments are at the Hyatt, cash games are in the casino!

(all payment transactions will be handled in the casino)

What if you won a package? Do you still have to go to casino to reg?

Yeah you have to pickup your ticket there, also all registrations for side events is done there too



Are backpack/bags allowed in the tourney area at the Hyatt (assuming they are since it's just the hotel vs. casino?)?

[BakinC00kies]

me and a bunch of others are going for dinner at grill royal tnite at around 8pm/9pm, let me know if u want to join

[NeilJ]

Hi All,

JD - 49 - Hi JD! Glad you will enjoy Day 1. Did you go to UKIPT Nottingham where they played ELEVEN levels on Day 1? Skrill confirmed for the entire festival.

Rec - 52 - For the Main, on 1A and 1B, every two levels you get a 15 with a 75 min dinner after either Level 6 or Level 7. From Day 2 forward, break after every level.

Jake - 54 - Pose got it right. ALL reg of any kind takes place in the casino.

Pose - 55 - Thanks!

Tex - 56 - ALL players need to register with the casino in order to enter either tournament venue (the Spielbank or the Hyatt). So everyone needs to go over there in general, plus, that is the only place to collect tournament tickets.

Rdrr - 57 - Thanks for the right answer! And yes, you can bring in your bag (so I have been told).

Cheers,

Neil
