GaF Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Well, tonights Grand Prix is cancelled - it will now run on Tuesdays!! No raked hands requirements by the looks of it anymore, AND it will be covered on Poker Night Live - looks a great tournament for PL'rs!!! 15 minute blinds as well!!! Also - great response from Stan James - they replied to my email within about 10 mins!! Not many Poker Sites respond that well!! However, on the down side - only top 3 places paid, and upto 6000 entrants. They usually get about 150 for this :unsure - but that is requiring 10 raked hands and without TV coverage - this will be a lot more I guess!! http://www.stanjames.com/poker/promotion_freerollPokertv.asp We are upping the stakes in the Freeroll Grand Prix.

stonecoldnuts Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Re: Stan James Grand Prix - Freeroll and Televised!! I can't stand prize structures like that. I'm gonna fire off am email to complain about it when the info is released on their website. Maybe if a few others do this as well they may listen?

Mr Bubbles Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Re: Stan James Grand Prix - Freeroll and Televised!! Personally with these sort of freerolls I like to just see the top 10 paid (top 3 is very harsh on the others in the final table) as it cuts down normally the number of entrants. Sounds value tourney though, any idea what time it starts as imagine it could go on a while with 15 minute blinds esp on a school night.

stereoman Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Re: Stan James Grand Prix - Freeroll and Televised!! I'm at least half-an-hour late (not really bothered about the Prima skins) but if anybody wants to be my referral for Stans Poker, be the first with a PM and you can cadge any trickle of money that will go your way when I deposit with 'em (not much I'll tell you but at least you'll have me as a referral! :lol).
