    Are there any tickets gtd from the sat's at 6pm?

    Also, have there been previous sat's into this, do you already have a number of people entered? What kind of numbers/packages are you hoping for?

    Cheers

    Played a satellite for this 2 weeks ago & there were 8 tickets given out on that night alone
    so I'd say you're pretty much guaranteed big value on Monday.
    Just remember to respect my raises as the 1st ticket is MINE :p

    Just to confirm 1000 can wsop chips be used towards any tournament/cash game?

    very confident, but was thinking the same myself. As far as I can see this is a single person package.

    Lol, oozing confidence! I can imagine it would be quite difficult to add a partner onto the same flights considering its a 4 flight round-trip... Would it be feasible?
    This is big factor for me, could a CoolHandLukian elaborate please?

    Id be pretty sure a package can be bought, otherwise it should be easy enough to get similar flights. But yea, as I see it its more of a package for anyone wanting to go to Vegas as part of a group that wouldnt know too many people going. Gutshot have been running online sats for this for months along with selling packages to their customers on the gutshot forum and Im guessing in the club in London aswell.

    From the Gutshot forum

    i am just in the process of booking all the flights and hotels for Team Gutshot who will be going to Las Vegas for the WSOP this year and just like we do every year we are more than happy to be joined by members that would like to take part in what is a very special annual pilgrimage.

    We fly out with Virgin on the 1st July flying direct to Vegas Mcarren.
    Picked up from the airport by limo and taken to the Gold Coast which is next door to the Rio.
    We fly back on the 7th again with Virgin direct into Gatwick.

    The package includes a $1060 buy in to one of the main event satellites which takes place on the 2nd (12pm, 5pm & 11pm)

    We will also throw in some Team Gutshot clothing as well so you can feel right at home.

    The package is £1700 but if you do not fancy the satellite then take off £530.

    If you are interested then please email me click here by Friday 25th April as we will be finalising number this weekend.

    Oscar,

    I'm not trying to cause trouble here, but the price of the package is £1700 which at current rates is €2168, so what happens to the balance of €832. Should there not be a package for every 22 players?

    Before you made the above post I had priced the same package and was going to ask the same question.

    I suggest you take this up with Michael O'Leary.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 300 ✭✭Guinnessman


    I think the extra amount is probably for the flights from Dublin to London

    Really???!?!? But still, just looked up Ryanair flights and theyr free to go over and €16 return so... hmm...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,881 ✭✭✭bohsman


    Thats a slightly different package to the one we are doing, off hand its not taking into account Dublin - London and London - Dublin.

    I know very little about the whole deal, Ive let gutshot know about your questions.

    I suppose when you add the flight from Dublin, tourney in London and Taxi's it wont be too far off. Fair enough.

    who won this, went down, it was great fun, more like a charity tourny, I really enjoyed it.

    When CHLs has a few tables going there is no better club atmosphere...


    I saw 12 magpies this morning, wtf do you get for 12? I only know up to 7.

    (bet you are all doing the one for sorrow , two for joy rhyme now:))
