GaF Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Love the fact Pokerstars are ramping up their UK tournaments at the mo. Yeah - they seem to be going UK crazy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD1973 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Let's hope it continues. Consistently do well in the UK only tourneys. Dare I say it seems like the competition seems softer. Wish they weren't all on at the same time. No good at multitabling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avongirl Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League No good at multitabling. :welcome to PL, Rob. Think you were there whilst I was sat with Trapper too. Stick around here and you'll soon get good at multi-tabling. :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrapper Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League It's not only Pokerstars who seem to be ramping up things for the UK, FullTilt seem to be aiming to boost their UK numbers too.

RobD1973 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Haven't played on Full Tilt. I play mostly 1 - 5 dollar MTTs. That's why I defected from Betfair to Pokerstars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrapper Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Oh, just realised there is no prize for the overall league winner... according to the website, the top players each month simply gets placed into a final tournie... oh well, it's still a freebie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodie Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Whats the deal with this then anywhere the points explained? still in the freeroll one 30 left of 587 obviously chip leader.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrapper Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Another one of those not great but not bad nights again, I managed to cash in both the championship and premiership league tournies today. 44th out of 587 in championship and 7th out of 135 in premiership, a slight improvement on last time. Woodie - your screen name woodiejr (14th in championship tonight)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodie Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Yeah out in 14th I got a littly tired in the end and started to donk my chips off with stupid cbets when 98% of the table were just check raising. Standard throughout tournie was awful. I think I counted 4 times I had massive stack only to get sucked out on and then rebuild it quickly. lol will play next week too. Still don't know how points are paid out..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedinight7 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Points Each Mirror Poker League tournament will award points as follows, regardless of which division you are playing in. The higher up you finish, the more points you’ll get - and you even get one point just for taking part.

RobD1973 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Just squeezed into the money on the Championship league - 20 cents. Think they reset the league points at the end of each month anyway. Roll on September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrapper Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League I don't think they reset the points as the pokerstars website states "The aim is to score as many points as you can over the season, and climb to the top of the league table." this matches the fact that these poker league games run in parallel to the english premiership/championship seasons. However, I think you they might as well reset them as I can't see any mention of a prize for the overall league winners. I think they will have an overall league table and a monthly table for each league... I guess the top 10 or 20 each month will stop playing these games as they don't really have anything to play for thereafter until the May final.

RobD1973 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Oh ok. You might be right. Can read it both ways. I think I'll carry on playing as be interesting to see how well I do over the next nine months and Tues and Fri are good nights for me to play.

TheTrapper Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Having a bad night tonight, out on 135th on the championship, chasers were killing me. Still in the Premiership tournie (in the money). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrapper Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Doh definitely a bad night, out on 10th/89 in the premiership, bubbled it for the final table. Hopefully I have climbed the table a little. Mr Bump will most likely win this month's premiership league unless someone else pulls off a 2 final table finishes between now and the following Friday.

TheTrapper Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League Rob - seems like you were right, they have reset everything, but at the same time they don't seem to track results very accurately (I have a suspect they only track results of individuals that downloaded the pokerstars software via the Mirror) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochnagar Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League I am a bit annoyed. I won the Friday Premier League one last friday and I think I did OK the Friday before. I am not on the league table at all and according to the points for places listed at the top of this thread I should be. Do you think I can't take part in the promotion if I was already a member of PokerStars beforehand? If so why did a big thing pop up to tell me about it when I logged onto PokerStars a month or so ago? Grrrrrr! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avongirl Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League I can't see anything on the Mirror link that says you need to have downloaded via their affiliate link. There doesn't seem to be any special T&Cs anywhere. Might be worth you sending an email to query. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTrapper Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League AvonGirl - I did send an email about the points a week ago. They forwarded it onto the appropriate department... I have yet to hear back. Quite annoyed. I suspect the time commitment in running it by the newspaper staff is minimal, reminds me of the Sun / News of the world poker league a year and a half back.

shane837 Posted September 8, 2009 Author Share Posted September 8, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League right i emailed stars to ask this is what i got back Hello Shane, Thank you for your email. I am sorry that the webpage has not been updated yet, but I can assure you that all players are eligible for this league not only those who downloaded the client from the Mirror page. Hopefully the webpage will be updated soon, but I cannot give you a time estimate on that. Good luck at the tables and if there is anything else we can do for you, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Lochnagar Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Re: The Mirror - PokerStars Poker League OK So they just haven't updated it. I would have thought all that would be automated somehow. I am still confused about how it works. Are the points calculated over a month providing monthly winners who progress to a final at the end of the year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
