Would 888 be at all interested in running some satellites for this event. We have great numbers in SA and while I understand that you are working towards increasing the seats for the GF I'd really like a chance to play in the $1500 ME at the Adelaide Champs. Just a thought on any possible ideas we could have for this?

I do not think that Sky City would like us contributing to their prize pool in this manner.
I will discuss and touch base again. But we don't have a lot of time.

Thanks Garth,
One of the smaller leagues in SA is doing this as their finals. Also, one of the major leagues is running a player of the month $3K SnG that you can use the winnings for either entry to their ME's or into other tourneys such as this or ANZPT or whatever.
Look forward to hearing from you further on this and understand timing is short.
Maybe if others in SA are interested in this then they could speak up below. Otherwise, don't worry about it and I'll find another way...

I like the idea. Surely if an 888 player won an event like this it would be good publicity for the league
