I'm a spastic handicapped wheelchair user who only plays online poker so far. Before I venture into qualifying tournaments for live poker events, I would like to know some more things ...
POKER TABLE
Since I'm quite small in a wheelchair, I have to remember that I do not get to the poker table. Are poker tables height adjustable in the casinos, or are there ramps and platforms where I can stand on the wheelchair?
Help while playing
because I can not move my hands well because of the spasticity, I'll probably need help with live poker while watching the cards and putting chips. Can I apply for help? What do the official tournament rules say? In chess tournaments, the referee has always set my figures after I have told him my move.
If I really get such a package (eg EPT Monaco, Berlin, Prague ...), then I have to pay my carer for the trip itself, so hotel, food, arrival, ect. Or put the poker organizers like pokerstars, titanpoker, ect. something else?
All these are additional costs, which I have to be aware of before. I have to calculate my costs.
Maybe this is the wrong place to ask the questions, but I still hope some experienced tournament players can help me here.
