Burt Saddo Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament Don't think I will bother again with this. Tournament started at 16.30, did not let me onto the table untill 16.44 and by this time I was already down to $240 and the blinds were 500/250. I got knocked out at 16.48 and it said I had come 700 out of 1900. Jesus 1200 knocked out in 18 minutes:loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament Burt - The mirros site says that they start at 8pm and 8:30pm - are you sure you were in the Mirror one and not a general Pacific Poker one? I'm just downloading...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brael Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament 2nd prize is a holiday to Vegas!!!! (Brael - where are you????) :loon Someone say Vegas??!!:loon Having looked at this, I'm going to give it a miss. My exams are less than 5 weeks away and my prep has gone to pot as it is. This looks similar to the one The Sun ran a couple of weeks ago. I found it a truly awful game to play in. I might have just had one of those nights though!! :lol Good luck to anyone who goes for it! :clap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burt Saddo Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament No it could not have been the Mirror one. I clicked on the UK Open Tab and registered for the only freeroll that was there. Don't know what it was but it was bloody quick. They have gone from 1984 entrants down to 18 left in 45 minutes. Found the Mirror one's they are under a different tab, god my fcuking brain hurts:\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAULM03 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament registered for the 8.30 one, might not be able to play if the nippers not down by then though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament Well, I finished 11th, so I've qualified :loon Anyone else? Now what exactly am I in? They make it sound like I'm playing in the "$1,000,000 UK Open", but it must be a satelite isn't it? And I presume it's online and not live......

accuman Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament I tried to enter the tourny at 20:30 but was told it's restricted. How do I get in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament There is a delay I think between setting your account up and actually being able to enter - Live support can sory it out for you (or at least they could if I'd responded quicker ... sorry) - don't think there's any more qualifiers - is the final tomorrow.....

pistonbroke Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament i already have the software installed does this mean i cant register when i try it says the entry is restricted or do i just download it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Re: Mirror/888 Tournament I think you can get away with registering if you go through live help .... however it's a bit late now, the final qualifier was last night :sad It's the final tonight ...... 225 in at the moment - 1st place is a place in the UK Open, 2nd Place is a weekend in Vegas and 3rd-10th are Chip Sets .......
