Covid-Safe-Table-Seating

The Redtooth Poker league will restart from Sunday 27th September and will run as a 17 week season with 4 qualifiers progressing through to the live regional finals in February/March 2021.

We are advising all venues that players will be required to either
A) pre-book a seat with the Tournament Director in advance of the game night B) Or on a first come first served basis to avoid any confusion.

It is really important that ALL venues, players, and TD’s are proactive in enforcing personal hygiene and cleanliness.
Introducing the new procedures will safeguard, avoid contamination, and spreading infection.

Reiterate to players that if they show any Covid19 symptoms including:
● A high temperature
● A new, continuous cough
● A loss or change to your sense of smell or taste

To protect others, please stay at home!!

Be advised it is down to each individual venue to reinstate the league and managers/licensees are the decision-makers in dealing with players who do not follow procedures. Please ensure that players are aware that there will be zero tolerance for not following procedures put in place to maintain social distancing.

In regards to prepaid accounts, you will have approx 5 weeks credit paid from the last season in March this will be deducted from the 17 week season leaving a payment due of 12 weeks at £22.50 +VAT. If your venue had a direct debit set up this was suspended in March if you wish to reinstate this, please contact Redtooth accounts and all brewery venues will need to get in touch to restart invoicing!!

All new venues will be eligible for the free restart poker pack up until the 23rd of October.

The Poker Team is really excited to welcome the league back to your venue and are available to help and support all venues to reintroduce poker down the pub!

If you have any queries or would like help to get your venue ready for the restart date please get in touch with the poker team on 01246 813713.

*Free tables and cards are available to all venues who restart by 23rd October

As everyone is aware Covid19 has massively affected all aspects of life. Unfortunately due to Grosvenor Casino’s being unable to host any external tournaments until January, we are now having to put steps in place to make cancellations to the RPT 2020 and amendments to outstanding events including National Finals and Regional Finals.

Blackpool RPT 2019/20 March& x4 Player Team Event
We are hoping for the 2019/20 RPT March Blackpool & x4 Player Team Event to take place as one of the first events in January 2021 so if you have tickets for this please keep hold of them for the time being. Prizes for the Team Event included x4 seats to the WLPC in November however as we have now had contact with our friends over the pond this is looking more unlikely to take place. We will give the prize winners the option to use these seats at VEGAS100 in February 2021 or alternatively wait for November 2021.

Once again we would like to thank everyone for your patience and support during this time. The team look forward to seeing you soon.

We are restarting the Redtooth Poker league in **PUBS** from Sunday 27th September, running a 17-week league with Live regional finals back in Grosvenor Casinos in February & March 2021.

Details and COVID safe guidelines will be released on Monday 7th September.

Keep your eyes peeled for all the news.

**Season 1 was frozen on week 8 back in March with your top 4 qualifiers going through to regional finals which will take place in January 2021**

As you are aware we have been informed by Grosvenor Casino’s that they have made the decision to postpone the Goliath until 2021.

We thought this would be an ideal time to give you an update on the RPT 2020/21 and Redtooth Poker events at Goliath.

In regards to RPT Portsmouth – Sunday 28th June. The decision has been made to postpone this and we will be looking at rescheduling this event to the end of the RPT 2021. This is to avoid any further loss of events and to avoid problems for Season Ticket holders.

As Goliath has now been cancelled we have taken the decision with the advice from MainEventTravel.com to automatically apply credits to your MainEventTravel.com accounts if you have purchased tickets to Redtooth Poker events for Goliath. We are also pleased to add that all booking fees will be included in the credits. Due to the number of tickets and access to systems currently, we feel this is the best way to proceed.

If you have any queries or questions regarding this please don’t hesitate to contact sarah@redtooth.co.uk

We have no plans to cancel or reschedule Blackpool until we have any further information from the Government.

In regards to Goliath tickets that have been purchased either directly from a casino, won, or purchased online.
There are multiple options for casino purchase refunds that can be collected directly from the casino once they re-open or alternatively they can be carried forward for 2021. Online tickets will be valid for 2021 and Grosvenor is currently looking into using these for other options. More details to follow.

In regards to the ERPT, we are continuing to work closely with our travel partners and should have an update on this in the next month.

We appreciate your patience during these testing times and we look forward to seeing you all back at Redtooth Poker events soon.

Please follow continue to follow our Facebook page for updates.

Stay safe.

Like many things, Covid19 has interrupted the current league season.

We would like to confirm that we will be honouring this season’s scores that were submitted on and up to week 8 of season 14.1.

Once the lockdown has been lifted we will be prioritising these regional final events. We will be allowing every playing venue to submit 4 players/qualifiers as normal.
It is down to the venue and tournament director to make the decision on how these 4 players will be selected nevertheless players must have played the minimum 4 games required to be eligible.

As we announced back at the end of March all accounts have been put on hold and any prepayments will be rescheduled in due course.

As your probably aware Redtooth agreed to increase regional final prize money from this current season. With the probability of the loss of 3-6 months revenue regrettably we won’t be in a position to do this. However, when live regional finals return we will maintain our previous year’s prize structure.

VEGAS100 May 2021 will continue to go ahead as planned and the team is excited to get the preparations underway and we will achieve the same high standards and experience as previous finals.

Don’t forget you can also get involved in our weekly VEGAS100 2021 Lockdown qualifiers every Friday for £22 on Grosvenor Poker, these will be weekly until the pubs re-open.

In regards to the weekly online tavern, this will continue every Sunday – scores will be updated when we have access to the office. Details of the free to play weekly online tavern can be found below.

Grosvenor Poker is home to our very popular online pub poker league, the FREE to play Redtooth Tavern online league, which runs parallel to your pub poker night, offers 15 regional final seats per season so if you aren’t able to play enough in your local venue or don’t manage to gain regional final qualification the Redtooth Tavern is a great backup option. A great addition to playing poker in your local pub league.
The online league runs every Sunday afternoon from 2pm with registration starting from 12noon on the day. The same points structure is used as in your local venue. At the end of the 13 week season, the top 15 players will qualify for their local regional final. Pub qualification takes precedence over online qualification.

Please note: If you register before the tournament starts and you are not logged into the poker client during the first 10 minutes of the tournament, you will be removed due to Microgaming network rules.

Tickets into other online events are awarded as prizes in this tournament.
You can get the password by logging into the members section via the ‘Get Members’ Access Now’ button.

We are happy to announce that at this time the WLPC is still scheduled to take place in November as planned.

We know how disappointed our RPT players were when this event got postponed due to Covid-19 and we want you guys to know this will be the first event rescheduled once life returns to normality.

This event is one of the favourites amongst our players and we know how important it is to you.
We will back in touch with confirmed dates when we can get back in the casinos.

Be advised if you have requested refunds for this from MainEventTravel.com you are not guaranteed to get tickets so we are advising all players and teams who have tickets to keep them as you know how quick this event sells out!!

Please keep following our Facebook page and website for updates.

As we have now made the decision to reschedule the VEGAS100 2020 to 2021 this gives us the time scale to reschedule the National Finals North & South.

We know our players would rather play LIVE so we wanted to ensure this was a possibility before making promises.
We are planning on rescheduling these for September 2020 with the hope that the casinos are back up and running

Once again, we would like to thank all our players for their patience at this time.

Please keep following our Facebook page and website for updates.

After numerous days looking at various options and alternatives, we have come to the exceptionally hard decision to reschedule the VEGAS100 2020 trip to early 2021.

With America’s boarders still closed to most foreign travel, and with no site to their reopening we just couldn’t run the risk of traveling this May. Add to that, people’s current financial uncertainty and the dramatic fall in the Pound against the Dollar.

The positive news is that we have managed to secure alternative flights for early 2021 and provisionally rebooked The Orleans. Transportation to and from the airport in Las Vegas has also been rescheduled. We will be announcing these dates as soon as we have had the accommodation signed off.

We have received lots of emails with queries and questions regarding this so we would like to thank all our VEGAS100 qualifiers and guests for their patience and for giving us the time to look at the multiple options we thought of as a team.

After polling nearly 50% of the VEGAS100 qualifiers by phone we soon established that the majority of players preferred to hold off until next year as opposed to a UK final. VEGAS100 is our core brand, an experience that creates memories for life, we want to ensure you that the VEGAS100 2020 will achieve the same high standards and experience as previous finals.

As mentioned in previous posts guest balances are currently on hold until we can get back into the office – once we are back in action, we will be able to provide more details.

Please continue following our Facebook page, VEGAS100 group, and website for updates.

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we inform you that due to the fight against COVID-19 pandemic we are left with no option but to close the office during this crisis.

This extraordinary measure has been taken in the interest of our staff and instructions from the government.

We would like to advise all our customers that all accounts, direct debits and any invoicing have now been suspended along with any league results from Sunday 22nd March.

Please do not cancel direct debits these will automatically paused for you until the pubs are re-open. If you do have any queries don’t hesitate to contact us via email at info@redtoothpoker.com

The team is still working effortlessly to try and put plans in place to ensure that when the league restarts we come back even bigger and stronger. Please bear with us at this time and follow us here for updates.

May we take this opportunity to thank all of our wonderful, loyal customers for their continued support and kind words.

We look forward to reopening when we are able until then please keep well, look after each other and we will see you all when this is over.
