voiceofjoe Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Re: Pokerstars £2k freerolls till 7th of March Noticed that these had been set up incorrectly - as they ignored the rebuys in the Prize Pool (maikng them guaranteed tourneys and not added) So wrote to Stars to complain Playing your generous £2k Daily Giveaways tonight.(#234190497) >> >>But the payout pool is not correct it states in your promotion £2k will be >added to the Prize Pool. >> >>Yet the Prize Pool only shows $3333.00 ?? >> >>We have an added £2,000 - Which is approx $3,333.00 >>Yet there are also $1809.50 worth of Rebuys and add-ons, which aren't >accounted for in the Pool? >> >>Is this an error or are the tourneys Guaranteed £2k and not added £2k as >the promo states FIrst Reply from Stars was that I was incorrect, Hello Martyn, > >Thank you for your email. > >Please note the way these tournaments work is that we guarantee that there >will be at least £2,000.00 ($3,330.00 USD) in the prize pool.

Hello Martyn, Firstly allow me to apologise for the information provided in the previous email. It has come to light that the tournament has been set up incorrectly and the re-buy and add-on amounts should be added to the main prize pool. Our Poker Room team is investigating this matter and is looking to make the necessary adjustments to players pay outs within 24 hours. In addition I can confirm that future tournaments in this promotion will be adjusted to ensure all the re-buys and add-ons are directly added to the prize pool. Once again I apologise for any confusion this situation may have caused and If you have any other queries, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Thank you for choosing PokerStars and good luck at the tables! Must say probably the quickest Customer Service out there, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyhornet Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Re: Pokerstars £2k freerolls till 7th of March Cant see last nights in the lobby any more - was it a big field? According to Hen's post in MTT winnings, it looks like 2720 was the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomell Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Re: Pokerstars £2k freerolls till 7th of March I finished around 180th with no re buys for around $2.50,does this mean I will get more $ :rollin Gutted as I basically threw my chips in as it was 00.30hrs and the pay out was going up by cents :zzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haichan Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Re: Pokerstars £2k freerolls till 7th of March Finished 11th with no rebuys and got $33 but by then its was basically all in on every hand because of the size of the blinds. Unless you finish in top 6 its not really worth playing even with the rebuys and with a field of 2000 you're not going to finish until 2.0, 3.0 am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
