GaF Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Re: Pacific Poker Updates Just had a phone call from my Dad - he says that there is a big 4 page pull out in todays paper about a tourney starting tonight at Pacific ...... anyone here read (and prepared to admit reading) The Sun? Had a look at the site - the qualifiers start tonight at 9pm and 9:30 pm with 30 qualifiers from each - running for a week - so 14 qualifiers x 30 = 420 max in the final .......... Probably need to download from the Sun site ....... these are usually pretty low entry the first night - so may be worth giving a bash tonight.....

GaF Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Re: Pacific Poker Updates I'm in :ok Got the start time wrong by the looks of it - they advertise a start time of 16:00 - assumed it was EST (i.e. 9 pm GMT) - however it starts in 2 hours - 8pm GMT - don't know what time zome they're on (4 hours behind GMT :unsure) Will play hyper aggressive in the first - accumulate or bust out and play in the second starting 30 mins later (cannot register for both at the same time!!).......

jolly67 Posted February 4, 2006 Author Share Posted February 4, 2006 Re: Pacific Poker Updates Got this today Two dollars doesn't buy much these days, but at Pacific Poker it's all you need to win a share of $2,000! As a participant of our recent restricted tournament series, Pacific Poker is giving you another opportunity to share in a huge prize pool… for a buy-in of just two dollars. That's just over a pound! Date:Sunday, 5 February 2006Time: 12:00 PPT or 4pm UK timeTournament Name: '$2K Takeaway'Tab: 'Multi Table'Buy-in:$2 + no fee!Registration Open:Friday, 3 February at 14:00 PPT But hurry! This tournament is restricted to you and a select few only, and seats are limited to the first 2,500 members to register. With a buy-in so small and the prize pool so big, this tournament will fill quickly, so it is very important that you reserve your seat early. Congratulations to 'wilee1', who walked away with $440 last week in our $2K Takeaway tournament. How much can you walk away with? for players who were in the newspaper freerolls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereoman Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Re: Pacific Poker Updates Anybody withdrawn money through a bank wire from Pacific Poker before? I put in a withdrawal request on Sunday, they've only sent me an e-mail on Wednesday and they say it'll be another 5-7 days before I get my money. I wonder what change I'll get from my $399? If the exchange rate is 1.77, it's a little over £225. I'm not particularly hopeful because I think there's probably a bank wire fee on top of that (they don't say if there's any fees or not) so I'm guessing just little over £200. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereoman Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Re: Pacific Poker Updates If anybody was wondering, I've just checked my online bank statement and it says £224.92 (YIKES!!) from $399. :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedonist Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Re: Pacific Poker Updates If anybody was wondering' date=' I've just checked my online bank statement and it says £224.92 ([b']YIKES!!) from $399. :$ That means you received the full rate of 1.77. What rate do you get to deposit? This week I withdrew $100 from my poker.com sit and go winnings to my Neteller account and received £56.18 which is 1.77 I deposited $50 at another site and Neteller charged £29.27 wich is a rate of 1.71. I have just opened an online bank account to use to use for poker, I intended to use it to deposit with Neteller. Would I get a better rate depositing directly?
