Do you have to unregister first?

I"m trying to join sat but getting message that I"m already registered in another sat for this touurnament, and to wait for that to finish before I enter this one.

That"s the correct password.  I will speak to Betfair about that glitch on regging.  Maybe we have to put it in a separate holding tank in future.

As it stands at the moment there are 100 in the 1b holding tank. Are there still places left in that "tank". If I unregister it will drop to 99 but 3 will qualify from tonight"s sat taking it to 102. Will I be able to immediately re-register?

It"s capped at 150, so unless there is a stampede later, it won"t be a problem.

The satellites will run every Sunday at 7pm (BST), they will be $15.50 with no registration fee, and there will be two seats guaranteed each week.  Further details can be found in the Betfair Poker Lobby.


Not that this should concern me later but......


I am playing the sat and the prizepool says Seat for 1st & $46.50 for 2nd - not 2 GTD as above??

Can someone look into this?

didn"t take the chance that if I unregged - and didn"t bink I might not get back in on my preferred day - pity really

I tried regging at 6.58 and it wouldn"t let me in...guess there"s a slight time differential between my PC and Betfair"s servers.

I un-registered which took the players in the holding tank to 99. I"m out of the sat and have been able to re-register to the holding tank.

But when the sat is over there will be 102 in the tank.

Will I be able to do what I did tonight again?

The players seem to think that the tank is capped at 100 and that you cannot register once there are 100 players registered.

I know what you are saying - but I for one am not taking the chance

Players ?  What do they know.   ???

The holding tank currently has 100 in it.  I have just regged and unregged myself, and it is fine.

The cap is 150 in each holding tank.  Trust me.   ;D

all well and good, and of course you are trusted (ummmm), but having secured an APAT seat (gold dust!) it would just feel wrong to be unregistering and taking a risk, no matter how minimal.

surely the fix is easy - just have a separate new holding tank for Satellite winners - that way people could stay registered in the main holding tank, and try and win a satellite to get a place in the Satellite winner holding tank.... once achieved, they then unregister from the main holding tank.
