Colin UK Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Re: Inside Poker Magazine Sun City Freeroll with PokerTime - 29 July Chess, I won the June FR. lamxk and scousemaster are the other two winners so far. The prize is $3000 entry into the main event with a $1000 add on also paid for. Flights accom and safari. Just one hitch at the moment, the site are asking for us to pay for our flights up front and they'll recredit our account. We're not sure about this, it's bit odd so am waiting for a reply from Alun at the mag. Look at liamxk's post on the IP forum. Can you send a private message on this one?

Are you sure they are paying the addon ?.[/quote'] Chess, you won't be able to send a PM to Colin either as he's not got 50 posts. If Colin posts to say it's OK I'll send you a PM to tell you the email address that he used when signing up to PL and then you can email each other. Regarding the payment of expenses, unfortunately I don't think it's unusual for sites to be slow paying them. I know when runadrum won his trip to Goa the money came through just before we went so we'd already had to pay for the flights. I think the Everest expenses were pretty last minute too. I guess you have to weigh up how long you can risk leaving it to book flights and whether it will cost you more if you wait, against how likely it is that the site will not pay up at all.

Hi Chess. Where did you get these details from. It's the first time I've heard that the trip is for two, great if it is. Re the add-on, the very first advert in IP re the freerolls says it is a $10000 VIP trip including $3000 buy in and $1000 add on. Alun has replied to the thread on IP forum so I think they're well on to it and we'll have the details soon. Should be a great trip when it's sorted. Avon, Thanks for your help. can you send chess my email please. Regards Colin 'Couk50' :cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
