Gary is to be commended for trying new formats but I have to agree with previous posters and say that I can't see this being a success. Poker qualifiers are basically online for a small fee with a huge pot of dosh for the winner of the final, say £2 to enter the qualifier, first prize in the final £20k plus other substantial prizes. Your outlay is zero apart from your small qualifier entry fee and your return is ten thousand times your stake.
In the qualifiers to the Largs final, your costs are £45/47 plus travel/accommodation costs. If you make the final at Largs you will also have travel/accommodation costs. If you win the only prize in the final you may make an overall profit.
The part that baffles me in the entry form is this...
"THEY WILL BE JOINED BY QUALIFIERS FROM THE AYRSHIRE MASTERS AND PLAYERS WHO BUY IN TO COMPETE FOR THE FOLLOWING PRIZES AT LARGS."
Buy in being another poker term, does this mean that folks can simply pay £45/£47 to enter Largs and shoot for the whole pot?
