10-Seat-Guaranteed Super Satellites - Every host venue on the Main Tour and the Summer Series will run a series of qualifiers in the run up to the Festival culminating in a 10-seat guaranteed super satellite, which will take place the week before their festival starts.

The GUKPT is the best poker tour in the UK with a variety of festivals and events for every bankroll. The Main Tour consists of 7 legs which span the length and breadth of the country and attract the cream of British and international players. The Summer Series provides smaller bankroll events during the summer months and you can qualify to any main event throughout the year via online satellites with qualification structures starting at free to enter tournaments through to Sunday £250 + £22 buy in qualifiers offering four £1070 GUKPT Main Event seats Guaranteed!

The Champion of Champions - £100,000 For 2011 we are changing the way this works. Instead of having to wait a full year to take part in the freeroll, winners will now have the opportunity to win big directly after the event. The winners of each competition (excluding Super Satellites) throughout the week of each GUKPT Main Event, Summer Series and 10% Series will be eligible to take part in an online Champion of Champions tournament held the following week to decide the champion for each event. Throughout the year this amounts to a staggering £100,000 in added value. The GUKPT Rankings - £65,000 The GUKPT leader board was already the richest poker rankings system in Europe and now boasts a total of £65,000 in prizes up for grabs at the end of the year. All GUKPT tournaments (excluding Super Satellites) carry rankings points and these are accumulated throughout the year. The player who earns the most points will be declared the 2011 GUKPT Player of the Year, pocketing a first prize of £26,000 of added value. Shoal Survivor - £21,000 New for 2011, players who qualify into GUKPT Main Events via online qualifiers or live satellites in casinos are automatically entered into Sharky’s Shoal Survivor competiton to be the last qualifier remaining in the tournament. The successful Shoal Survivor will win entry into GUKPT event/s up to the value of the tournament they qualified for. Sharky’s Giveaways - £14,000 Two weeks prior to each event taking place, Sharky will be visiting the host club. Players will have the opportunity to play Heads Up against Sharky, for entry into various events during the GUKPT festival. Sharky will be giving away £1,500 (£2,000 for the Grand Final and £500 for the Summer Series) of added value on the day and everyone that plays the scheduled event on the day will also gain automatic entry into an online Super Satellite freeroll for the main event. This is an enormous £14,000 in giveaways.

· The Main Tour- 6 Main Event Legs and a Grand Final · The Summer Series- A series of three mini festivals taking place in two locations concurrently at opposite ends of the country between May and July.

Re: GUKPT 2011 Schedule Announced Brighton Grosvenor not the best poker set up and because of the close proximity to London it does not get the runners of most of the other GUKPT events. I played in the Club Champions heat which had a freeroll ticket to the Champion of Champions final added and there was only 9 runners!! If Brighton was to lose out, I think the players that look forward to coming down for the wekend would miss it far more than the locals.

Aye its crazy mate, we (Newcastle) had the biggest summer series events outside of the Vic, yet its taken away and not replaced by anything, coupled with the fact that the G in Newcastle has just had a £1.2m facelift incorporating a new poker room, makes no sense whatsoever! Ps. i like Brighton G, ive cashed there 100% of the games ive played:ok

Hmmm some fish just cannot let their TPSK go, he'll never win anything that boy. I realise I was only 95% fave in that hand but it was a shame to lose it as that would have put me up with the chipleaders with 30 left but not to be.
