This weekend's 25/25 Series events in Sheffield and London come to a close today and there are still another seven events on the 2014 calendar to look forward to before the series returns in 2015 even bigger and better, with casinos in Wales joining the lineup for the first time.
The remaining events in 2014 are at Leicester and Bournemouth next weekend, Liverpool from 21-23 November, Edinburgh and Nottingham from 5-7 December and Luton and Huddersfield from 12-14 December.
That will conclude proceedings for 2014, with next year seeing tournaments in Cardiff and Swansea for the first time, plus new venues across the Grosvenor network added to the schedule.
The starting flights for the £200+£20 events will take place from Thursday to Saturday in 2015, with the second day held on Sunday. First day flights on Thursday and Friday will start at 7pm, with Saturday flights commencing at 4pm.
The 25/25 Series has an unconditional guarantee of £25,000, with a 25,000 chip allocation, 40-minute clock throughout all starting flights, and a 45-minute clock throughout day two.
Each day one flight will have a re-entry option, with re-entry will be allowed once in each flight.
