Listen, I'm not getting into a slanging match with you here, you asked a question about why the event was capped, and i answered it as best I could in a way that makes a lot of sense.
Now you no longer have an arguement on that ground, so you're trying another avenue. I'm not rising to the bait.

Ladbrokes put up a guarantee of €250,000 for a €500 buy-in event, which was unheard of in Ireland (or possibly England) before for a live tourney with a €500 buy-in. If thats not spectacular, I dont really know what is.

No way could one say it was a "very safe" guarantee. I had people in the "know" tell me we were crazy when they first heard it! But now that its snowballing, it looks like it was easy. And until the numbers come in, theres still a lot of work to do. The term "never count your chickens" etc etc comes to mind.
Theres no harm in healthy discussion. Your not getting on my nerves, I have no probs with answering questions, and I do believe capping the tourney was the correct way to go for Ladbrokes, as its the quality of the tournament their interested in, not quantity. If it sells out, its still gonna be a pretty huge field.

Look forward to meeting up with you sometime,

Connie

You will of course get the value of your ticket should you win a ticket in a sattellite and have already purchased a ticket.
If you want to pre-register for the super-satt, you can do so if you like (but not on-line), but theres no real need to pre-register for the super satt. You can do that on the night.
