And more importantly - how was the software in a real money game? As slow and cumbersome as we fear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letsplay Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Re: PKR Freerolls Just to let you know that bigger freerolls are planned, and that this is just the beginning as we are in beta testing at this stage... Andy (PKR) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laidbackbloke Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Re: PKR Freerolls How many entrants? And more importantly - how was the software in a real money game? As slow and cumbersome as we fear?i think there were 270 or so people in the tournament i played in (max 300) I was playing the forum comp and the sun game at the same time, so i have to confess that i wasn't giving the gameplay as much attention as i could have, but it seemed to run fine for me :ok . As its still just at the beta testing stage i can understand keeping the prize pool low,so the $20 prize pool didn't bother me ................... i was just playing to try out the software :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
