Obviously the play is to buy into all EPT events that one is interested through Stars, but what about WSOPE?

Anyone know if they'll accept USD at the cage at the going exchange rate (without charging an exchange fee on top) at Casino Empire, or is it better to wire the money for those?

This reminds me of a gem from the ukipt whilst we're all waiting for a train...

Strosho: can you smoke on the platform?
Me: you can, but there's a massive fine *gets bored and walks away*
Strosho, to next guy: I wonder what the rule is about taking cocaine

shannon: they are pretty reasonable about letting you buy in with dollars, and if you have extra pounds left at the end they will let you buy dollars back at the same rate.

Ya its a direct flight so that shouldnt be a big deal. But the jetlag etc might not be worth it.

Assuming for WSOP:

For EPT London:

DIRECT BUY-INS WITH THE CASINO

You can register for the Main Event and side events in person at the Grosvenor Victoria Casino or by money transfer, bank draft or personal UK cheque. For full details, please contact Tony Peters : cashier_GC-London-Victoria@rank.com

Registration will be available at the Hilton from noon, or for two hours beforehand for later events.

Please ensure you do this at your earliest convenience to avoid any delays.
