Karl Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Awesome.....Just won a UK Tour Package last night, which is my first ever online package win ever.I could never win a package on Pokerstars or any other site due to all those poker tools that player are using these days.So it looks like I'm going to Brighton this March, am I right that there's a Day 1a and Day 1b and the final is day 2, in these tournaments ?If so can I choose if I want to play Day 1a or Day 1b ?Do us quailfiers get a hoodie ?Thanks for any repliesKarl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Am I right in understanding that UK Tour Qualifiers attending would be entered into a "Last qualifer standing" who would win a Unibet Open package ?Also who ever wins a UK Tour leg will also win a Unibet Open package too ?If so, then that is very good value added to these Uk Tour legs 😃Are these up for grabs this year ?

BonusPater Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 @Mynona, I've asked @DavidP_Unibet to have a look at this thread. He should be able to answer all your questions :)Congrats on qualifying :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidP_Unibet Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Sorry for the late responses Do we have a limit date to set our choice for the package (i'm not sure to go to brighton, until when can i chose ?)We'll refresh the info on the site page next week but ideally if you can let us know at least a week before the next event that you'd like to move the package to later in the year then that'd be great. Do you have hotel info for the brighton stop for accomodation ?I should have this next week, at which point we will send an email out to all qualifiers listing some options. Is there gonna be special community events ? Live coverage ?There'll be a live blog and social media updates (we finally have the Social Media for Poker position filled as of 3 days ago). I'm also working on a live stream for the UK Tour events but that's not finalised yet. I'll be more active in the community again now so if any more questions come to mind please feel free to fire away :) “Heroes are heroes because they are heroic in behavior, not because they won or lost.” ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoned_midgetz Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Hi, thanks for the tour dates, was wondering if there was a schedule for the Brighton leg?

sgriff Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Thanks for the dates. Are these set in stone so it's safe for us to book flights trains and hotels? Or should we wait until nearer to the time? This is particularly relevant for the Glasgow leg as I believe that flights will be cheaper in advance especially as it's a bank holiday weekend.

DavidP_Unibet Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I'm sure there will be a festival running during a week at Brighton and a side event on the Sunday but I'm awaiting more details from the casino.The dates for the Glasgow leg have moved to 2nd - 4th June to avoid a clash with the UO that in May. The first leg dates are set in stone and won't change and there ate no plans to change dates of any other legs - the only time we will is if a UO clashes (we had to do this with the December 2016 Manchester leg). I'm trying to get info on all UO dates for 2017 now so for now I would only go ahead and book trains for the Brighton and Glasgow legs.Will update in here as soon as I have more info. The site page should be updated in the next few days and all current qualifiers will receive an email with more info for Brighton next week. “Heroes are heroes because they are heroic in behavior, not because they won or lost.” ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgriff Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Last year there was a Unibet Open package for the longest lasting qualifier. Is that available again this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monopoi Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 really looking foward to see a schedule to decide wether i will book the flight or pospone the ticket to the next event... whatever - gl all of you guys - where are you coming from to play the event?

DavidP_Unibet Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 The site page is finally up to date and now has dates for each event in 2017:https://www.unibet.co.uk/promotions/poker-promotions/uk-poker-tour We're also going to be working with Main Event Travel who will be helping to put together some hotel options for players at the events. If you'd like some help from them to find good hotel deals for the UK Tour stops then just shoot them an email: events@maineventtravel.com. We're also going to be keeping the 'online qualifier last longer' promo this year - longest lasting online qualifier at each event wins a €2k Unibet Open package :) “Heroes are heroes because they are heroic in behavior, not because they won or lost.” ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Just a curious question from me....I love to know on average how many quailifers play in UK tour tournaments and how many direct buyins also play these tournaments ?If I can get an average number of qualifiers playing then i can guess the chances of winning a Unibet Open package....lolNever been to a UK tour tournament so I don't know how big or small are the numbers that end up playing, can anyone enlighten me to facts & numbersThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidP_Unibet Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 We had two stops in Brighton in 2016 due to the fact we couldn't get a stop in London and one of them was the most successful (in terms of numbers) so decided to stick with that formula.We normally have around 50 online qualifiers in each event, with roughly 30 actually attending (if a player qualifies online, doesn't move their package to a future event and doesn't turn up then their buyin still goes into the prizepool but obviously they can't win the last longer). Overall we normally have between 200 and 220 buyins altogether (I think the biggest prizepool we generated was £48,000). “Heroes are heroes because they are heroic in behavior, not because they won or lost.” ― Nassim Nicholas Taleb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
