Patched Up and Raring to Go

One thing that is different about this event is the fact that there are a whole of host of players wearing patches that say PokerStars Staff with the Manx flag.

This is because, for this one event only, people who work for PokerStars are allowed to play the UKIPT (staff are usually not allowed to play) but to show complete transparency to everyone playing the staff are all patched up as thus.

So far today, there looks to be at least 10-15 players who have taken advantage of this one time shot and are involved in the event.
