I second that!
I thought the venue was way better than both previous CAP events I attended (London & Barcelona last year) – I sincerely hope the powers that be go back there again next year.
I stayed in the actual hotel (where the event was) & that was great too!I only have two small complaints – both out of CAP’s control I guess:
1) The entrance to the hotel was a bizarre as it was dangerous:- From the road, up a steep flight of steps which had lights that weren’t turned on at night – then up a tiled pathway… well some of it was tiled, but the majority were broken & loose or missing….! A definite tripping hazard, especially after a few!2) The party venues were a very long way away from the venue – about 7 miles across London (£20-£30 by taxi I would guess – I don’t know as I took the tube!). I think it would have been better if they could have been much closer.
Overall though 9/10 – and the beers in the hotel were less than half the rip-off price in Barcelona!
:cheers:so it was better than in Barcelona last year then?
did more ppl go there than in Barca?
how were the parties?
Hey There,
We had more people, infact we had over 1,600 which completely took me by surprise as we only had 1,500 lanyards but it just goes to show how big the event has got – Its now bigger than most iGaming events let alone affilate events – Only problem is the bar bill is a killer :wink-wink
Parties I loved –
Tues – Breaking The ICE – Cafe De Paris – Good but pretty average turnout so wasn’t amazing
Wed – Fire & ICE – Gilgamesh – Awesome venue, all Babylon themed with incredible decor which apparently cost the venue £1,000,000 to do – Even got to hold a big yellow pythong, so ticked that off
Thurs – CAP Awards – The Brewery, 100x better than last year and massively impressed that it all came together without a hitch – Loved “Alice” lol, the Mad Hatter Vodka Luge, the pink flamingos and of course the awards. The only part of the awards that I got involved with was the comedian who was rubbish – Lesson learnt that I don’t pick the commedian
Fri – C-Planet High Roller Party – Orchid – This is their 3rd CAP Euro party and they keep getting better, 100% open bar in a v cool venue with lots of hidden areas, great music, and the girls dancing were…..welll….what can I say bella!
Sat – Casinio Coins Closing Party – These guys didn’t spare any expence with shed loads of free booze and a prize every hour which were definitely not cheap – They even gave away an all expensed trip to the next CAP (BTW who won that?) Really cool club with everyone dancing and going late – You can’t ask for more, well maybe a hot girl in a giant champagne glass which of course they had!
Sun – Sunday Session – I love this, its never crazy and just beers in a local English pub but if you have the stamina and stay there long there is always a few games of great poker with shed loads of champagne
Sun Night – Apparently Bodog had a Superbowl party but by then I was a mess and tucked up in bedUntil the next time!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
I am in the middle of moving house and changing jobs at the moment (I am going to be working full time for myself running my websites from next week – how scary is that?), but I managed to spend 3 hours at CAP London on Saturday, which was my first visit to any industry event.
I would like to congratulate the organisers and sponsors for putting on a great show I met people from all over Europe, Central America, South Africa and Canada. One minute a guy from South Africa was saying how cold London was, the next minute I was talking to someone from Montreal who said he found the temperature comparatively mild!
I would like to give a very special thanks to all those affiliate managers I met and who I hope will be working closely to support me as I try and make a living!!
I am now looking forward to going to Amsterdam, meeting more people and, most importantly, taking part in some of the social events!
Hey Tony,
It was good catching up with you
Good luck with being a “full time” affiliate – once the bug bites its hard to quit this industry

The dwarves of the world thank you for your decision to leave the comedian picking to others
Hey Tony, was great to meet up with you in London and we’re looking forward to supporting you!
The EGO team had a fab time in London, despite the snow and numerous taxi journeys!
Can’t wait for Amsterdam!:tongue:
