There will be tables available to those who make an early exit to organise sit n go's as well as cash games as and when required!

The WassOnline Buffet

The buffet on the Saturday afternoon at the Quality Hotel is a purely social event that has been organised by WassOnline to give the members of the site the chance to socilaise in a relaxed atmosphere outside of the casino. It is free to attend, but you will need to bring your pass (you will get this in your welcome pack on the Friday night in the casino, or you can collect it at the door if you have registered). It is a 2 course hot buffet, so it should be enough to see you through to the buffet at the casino that night! If you wish to attend - please post your username here!
