Leigh

Have you looked into the Friday satellite yet? Is it going to be a $20 sat for a $50 game?


Apologies if this has been covered already but is it correct that there is an on-line satellite this Friday for $20 into the $50 on-line event on Saturday?

Is this for both events on Saturday or just one, as seems a bit steep for a $50 seat, as might aswell just buy in.



It is correct and it is just for the $50 NLHE.

We would normally run more sats for the online events, but everything has had to be squeezed in this week.  The $20 sats have been very popular in the past, and although the seat is a $50, we think it should be okay.

We will review the satellites for online events prior to the next events.


I think this is a bit steep; $20 is still too much for some. The idea of sats is so all bankrolls have a chance of playing at a higher level without the cost. $5/$10 should be about right.

agree, a satty that pays one place for evry 2.5 entries does seem a bit daft. Why not make it a $25 sat and we can have a DoN foldfest? ???

I do agree re the $20 sat for a $50 sat...... but to play devil"s advocate, I have to say, if one doesn"t like it, one doesn"t have to play! does one!?  In fact, one could watch Coronation Street on Friday night instead!

There is one benefit from this particular satellite.  It doesn"t have a reg fee.

As there is no cap on the number of entries for Saturday, you could arguably play a $25 Double or Nothing on Betfair to get to your $50.

Or a $10 SNG would get you to $50.


As I have posted elsewhere.  This is a one off due to having to fit a lot of satellites into one week, and the $20 ones are normally very popular.

For future online events, we will have more satellites running.

I have added a new card but when I try to deposit i get a "navigation to the webpage is canceled". I am guessing something on my PC is blocking it. Anyone know how to get round it?


Hey Suz xx

I had same problem, however got over this as follows:

When you click on your account you get a message asking if you want to only download the secure info as some of the info may be loaded through an unsecure http.

You need to choose the no option, I did and had no problems from there.

Hope this helps

Suz,

I don"t know the answer, but I"ve stuck your post on the Betfair Poker Discussion aswell, to see if anyone has had the same problem.


Problem sorted for now. I downloaded the software on my sons PC and it let me deposit.

Just have to hope he doesnt start playing poker now  :-\
