This looks great and will only help pool in EK and improve the standard, I hope loads of EK players enter out of the 32, I'm sure most that play a good bit will be wanting to play in this, if I wasn't working a lot of weekends just now I would love to play in all the events, maybe next time, good luck with this

Sounds great Marty, I'll not be able to commit to all the events unfortunately

Just wondering if you have thought about reserve list for each individual event for people wanting to play the odd event?

There's always going to be some of the original 32 who can't make every event so I'm sure you'd have some free spaces, and extra £££ to the pot would be better than call offs/no shows?

Totally agree with Graeme, due to family and work commitments, many of us cannot commit to the entire run of events, but may be able to play 2, 3 or even 4 events, I think a reserve list is a good idea as it keeps the cash coming.

However i suppose its how the tournament Organiser sees it, but I think Graemes suggestion is better than a closed shop where some tourney may onlyhave 20 or 25 player and there being alot of W/O games.
