GaF Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Freeroll on P 67 of this months Poker Player mag. If you played in the GrandPrixII series AND have tried the new Betfair software before 30th November, you'll be registered automatically :ok (most of us I think). A further 150 seats are open to anyone. The opening time for registration is being used to give readers an advantage, so I'm not publishing it here (or in the diary), but check p 67 if you have the mag :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaded Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Betfair Poker Player Christmas Special Bah... I like everything about the tournament except the fact that the new Betfair software is so bad, I've uninstalled it!! May have to redownload, I guess.

voiceofjoe Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Re: Betfair Poker Player Christmas Special Theres an update when i played tonight - it now has a level countdown clock , and a couple of cosmetic bits of text i can see. But it also seemed a lot quicker - (well quicker, anyway) - between turns which for me was the main bug bear. I've only played tourneys so don't know about the cash tables Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgej Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Re: Betfair Poker Player Christmas Special i've found i'm not quite so annoyed with the software if playing a MTT and have 2 tables open. ! table to play the game and use the space for the other table to look at the MTT's position board. Less clicking back and forward, so less hassle now. Not played in the GrandPrixII so i'll need to keep my eyes peeled. Thanks for the headsup GaF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brael Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Re: Betfair Poker Player Christmas Special I'd like to take part but don't know if their software will let me... extremely pi$$ed off with Betfair Poker just now as I can't get the thing to run consistently. I had been intending to move my entire bankroll to them as I do almost all of my sports betting there but until I can resolve the problem with my wireless network then there's no point. :loon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runadrum Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Re: Betfair Poker Player Christmas Special I had been logged onto Betfair from about 1pm today until my wife decided to unplug my PC at 4.59pm precisely. It took me 10 minutes and 200 chips to get back in (only 2 live players on my table) and two losing pocket pairs and I'm out. What were all these idiots doing registering for a tournament they had no right to be in and then don't turn up anyway ? Complete shambles. :@ Hopefully I will have calmed down in time for the Focus game tonight and a game we can all enjoy playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
