BillHicks Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Re: Inside Poker Mag This Month given there is 1 wsop seat for every 13 players isnt in our interest to have as many weak freerollers in it as possible? the alternative possibility is that if they get 2000 freerollers entering it they may realise their miscalculation and cancel it - though the bad publicity would probably dissuade them from that another possibility is although the tournament takes 2000 they mayhave a limited number of seats for freerollers others being reserved for sattelite qualifiers, direct buy ins etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyhornet Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Re: Inside Poker - Deposit $5 and get $1050 WSOP sat seat I assume the 1 seat per 13 players applies to paying players:unsure 2000 freerollers at 1 in 13 is 153 seats. Can't see them going for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peejaytwo Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Re: Inside Poker - Deposit $5 and get $1050 WSOP sat seat just got the email response saying its been paased to the correct dept. still only 203 entries to the tourney,cant understand why there has been so little take up of the offer. i saw this thread yesterday,and like a few others contemplated registering just after 00:01 last night. forgot about it and expected it to be full already. anyway,still hopeful.

jomell Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Re: Inside Poker - Deposit $5 and get $1050 WSOP sat seat I was told that there was a printing error! Complete cock up it seems. They are taking no more entries :sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillHicks Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Re: Inside Poker - Deposit $5 and get $1050 WSOP sat seat Pure speculation on my part I reckon its that there are maybe 200 spaces for new accounts and the other spaces are for sattelites aetc. I just cant imagine they have 2000 1050 dollar freeroll seats . Or maybe I think some one cockedup intheir office and meant to offer say $105 sattelite seats to the final 1050 buck event. Though Everest does offer good sign up bonuses normally I believe, I'd nearly signed up with them before to get some free books + bonus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorkingForTheEnemy Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Re: Inside Poker - Deposit $5 and get $1050 WSOP sat seat So what does that statement mean? They still going to honour entry for the people already in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamkiller Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Re: Inside Poker - Deposit $5 and get $1050 WSOP sat seat Obviously I am not privy to any inside information but IMHO i think the entries already entered will stand...... suspend rather than abandon was the key I think.
