equinoxx Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I just registered for the Team Challenge toniight by entering the password on the page on the Poker Room site and was told I got a ticket for the tournament. I then went onto the site to rtry and find the lobby but cannot find it. Am I right in thinking that all I have to do now is wait until 8pm for the game to kick off or do I still need to register to the tournament the usual way by registering on the software?

Hedonist Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question NO! You have to register, it is complicated but once you have a ticket you have to enter the tournament room then click on launch to open another page to sign up.

GaF Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question Not sure I understand the restriction you're coming across - the mag specifically says "You don't need to deposit any money" :unsureI cant play - my account is blocked - they asked me to email ID, which I did, then they replied saying they'd changed policy and I had to fax it instead of emailing it - and I had to do it within 24 hours or they would permanently block my account - I let them block it!!! (Stupid - I presume if I'd printed the ID I'd emailed and faxed the print, then they'd have accepted it?? Utter madness) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teaulc Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question so really you have to deposit to play which is against the rules as stated in poker player,although in fairness not poker players fault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffster Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question GaF, As far as PokerPlayer mag is concerned, we dont need to deposit any money to play... BUT... Poker Room now want a minimum deposit of $10 , else you are classed as a "play money player", NOT a "real money player"... "Play money players" can only log on at certain times, and we cant even log on to make the $10 deposit even if we wanted to, as we are currently outside the times when we can log in... Here is the info / screenshot from Poker Room : Dear Players, Due to a rapid increase in real money games on PokerRoom.com lately, we have chosen to restrict access to our play money games during Peak Hours.

Tweetypie05 Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question I'm gutted about this! No warning before hand to say this was due either. Surely they could have sent an e-mail out before doing this...? Poor IMO... sent an e-mail off saying as much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question Yeah - down to PokerRoom and pretty poor really given what is in the mag!!! I have just been watching the chat box and the password has been given out there a few times so it will be full of yanks anyway........entry 220....

PokerPlayerDave Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question Hello all Really sorry about last night - PokerRoom didn't inform us they were restricitng access to people that hadn't made a deposit. I'm pissed off as it goes against everything we've agreed with them and am currently trying to contact them to see why and what they're going to do about it. I'll get back to you as soon as I hear anything. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazabroad Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Re: Poker Room / Poker Player Team Challenge Question Another site that is getting too big for its boots and will now be consigned to the bin. Please dont make this a core site, as its just another that I refuse to play on. Am quite glad to say that give it another couple of months down the line when the yanks are out of the picture they will be begging us to come back to them. Something wrong with a site when you cant even log on to make a deposit :@ who the fcuk do they think they are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
