Malaga is my main airport 
And I'm not the only one in our office, as Gibraltar airport is not the best solution at all the times..

Why not?
Is Malaga far from Gibraltar and stuff?
Malaga and Gibraltar are about 1 to 1 and a half hours apart driving, I live in mijas costa used to play a little at sitngo in calypso but haven't played live here for about a year, I hear there is a casino opening up in gib that will have poker but know nothing else any more info on that would be great.
I,ve posted this elswhere but I thought I'd do it again coz I want to show off,
Just thought I would post this as a wee ego boost for myself.
I played in the costa del sol poker festival live main event this weekend, 500euro(i won the seat in a 50E sattelite)buy in and a field of 45 or so players. after the fist day of 10 hours of play finishing at 5am saturday we had a break until 7 pm and I started on the final table of nine with 47000 chips (average 85000 or so) the tournament paid the top six I was about 7th place. after 5 and a half hours more very tough play against some very experienced scandinavian players I took first place and a cool 9400euros!!
Apart from showing off I wanted to post this to thank the guys and coaches on poker strategy who can certainly take some credit for helping me play a far more disciplined game than normal, cheers and good luck everyone.
By the way winning hand, my A9 os against my opponents all in with 300000 chips showing A3 os , a 9 on the flop gave me the prize
The best place for live events now on the costa is the new sit n go in calahonda
http://www.calahondasportingclub.com/ lots of players and games to suit any bankroll, see you there?
Ians my name
where in calahonda? I do know calahonda so you can be brief. and do they play any omaha cash games? I stopped going to sitngo in calypso due to only small rebuY holdem tourneys and nl cash games which to me is a little boring, also no action during the day cash games started way to late for me. has this changed then?
1 opposite lidle
2 nomaha yes
3 cash from 1 2 up to 5 10
much better than Aces was in fuengirola lots of good players and the inevitable fish!!!!!

Well, flights from Gibraltar go only to Madrid and UK - and the connectors from London are not too good. So driving to Malaga and then flying from there is better nearly all the time.
But the Autopista del Sol is a highway with a great sight, so it's okay
@wininagn: congratulations! 
Interesting to hear that a few bigger tourneys are around there.
This theread is so dead.
