The 10 players awarded the right to buy-in direct for PokOcc2 have 7 days remaining to pay for their tickets - otherwise they will be offered to the next 'registered' players until all 10 tickets have been paid for. 

October 3rd 2008

The first 10 players to register for PokOcc2 have now been offered the opportunity to purchase their tickets.  All other hopefuls must now register 'interest' in playing in the hope of being selected by ballot on 1 Dec 08.

All 10 players MUST purchase their ticket prior to 1 Nov 08 or lose the right to do so.

September 1st 2008

We have allocated a maximum of 10 (out of 100) direct buy-in tickets for the Poker Occasions Festival over the weekend of Friday 30th January 2009 - costing £250 they offer not only the opportunity to 'be in the money' in 3 separate tournaments (with a prize fund of £6750 in EACH) but also to walk away as the Festival Champion and along with the festival trophy you could be jetting off to the fabulous Las Vegas for the WSOP 2009 with flights and accommodation and $1500 in spending money.

A direct buy-in will be available for the first 10 'payers' ONLY, thereafter reverting to a ballot system.  Details and payment can be made via the Tournament Information page above - DON'T FORGET TO LOG IN FIRST (AND REGISTER BEFORE THAT IF NEED BE.....)
