A Surreal Experience
Level 1
: 100/200, 0 ante
It's incredibly odd to be covering a poker tournament on the hallowed pitch at Wembley. Not least because it takes an age to get from the pitch to the press room (we're fairly high amongst the heavens here) but having never covered anything like this it makes this experience truly unique.
How many people play is dependent on the live buy-ins, there are roughly 500 live and online qualifiers so we're expecting runner numbers could be anything really between 600 and 800, but that is just an estimate on our behalf.
