Burnley Joe Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Article from Pokernews Spend the winter in the Caribbean with William Hill I stumbled across this very juicy promo last night and if you want to know what I'll be doing next week it will be trying to win a trip to the Caribbean for peanuts, courtesy of >William Hill Poker. Next week the top bookmaker and poker room will be adding ten Caribbean Poker Classic packages to a range of low buy-in MTTS. It starts with a £10 freezeout on Monday, a £1 rebuy on Tuesday, a £10 rebuy on Wednesday, a £10 freezeout on Thursday, a £20 rebuy on Friday and finally a £30 freezeout on Sunday. This is all on top of the money you stand to win in these events anyway, but the real added value is that anyone who finishes in the top 50 of any of these events (all at 7:30 pm UK time) and you will be entered for a 4 package Freeroll on Tuesday 21st of October.

Punto Banco Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Re: Willy Hill CPCs Packages Arg annoyed I only saw this now...though eased by the fact the aussie $ rebounded recently still think is very negative to deposit atm as the A$ is so low compared to only a few weeks ago... I will have to check whether this site works like Paradise and keeps your money as A$ and transfers when you want to play... if so I am in 100% for the rest...:ok Disappointing about the $ atm because I have been wanting a will hill account as I see they have Best price for anytime goalscorers at least 80% of the time...

If you've qualified for this freeroll it's looking like it may be on Monday and not Tuesday. Keep your eye on the Will Hill lobby. So was I - I had Tuesday in my Diary - but when I double checked here - http://www.williamhillpoker.com/poke...ments-3-37.htm - it's definitely down for monday.

GaF Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Re: Willy Hill CPCs Packages Yes - Afraid it went ahead last night - was originally advertised for Tuesday night, but at some stage they slipped a new date in there..... I've not played much on William Hill till lately, but have been excedingly disappointed in their organisational skills - especially with the PokerGod series (but not just that) - they've been extremely poor and unreliable!

Totally agree GaF, but although they have been extremely poor and unreliable, their carribean cruise promotion last week was one of the best added value series I've seen and I think we must give them credit for that.

PGremlin Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Re: Willy Hill CPCs Packages Hmmm... Yeah they have a few good promo's at WH. Never had problems with them about withdrawing money from my account. Fast and no hassle. To bad their tournament organizing skills aren't always great, but I guess they are more a sports betting company then a pure pokersite.
