Congratulations to last night"s satellite winners! dutchalik, mikesAPAT

Tonight"s £4.40 satellite starts at 7.30pm. Again, we"re guaranteeing 2 seats, with no minimum number of runners required. So far zero are registered, so could be a great value way to qualify for the final! :)

Please note, the games are listed under "Tournaments" > "All" (rather than their usual location of "Coral Exclusive" > "APAT").

 Matt I won a satellite seat for this on Thursday (mikesapat) but I won"t be able to start on time. It won"t let me unreg, so I can late reg. Can this be sorted?

Winners of the satellite will be auto-registered for tomorrow"s Main Event. There is no cash alternative.

Matt, I don"t want a cash alternative, only to start at 7ish with a full stack. Surely this can be accommodated.

Mike, you can"t be auto registered to start at 7pm. The only way would be to give you cash (or tournament tokens instead), then you register at 7pm yourself.

Have you tried contacting support? My contacts aren"t back in until Monday.

Anyone having a problem with the bet sizing amounts. For some reason I can only bet an exact multiple of the big blind but nothing inbetween.

Wrecked my head that much I couldn"t be bothered playing.....
I lost a big hand early in the game because I thought it was my computer...
Couldn"t be bothered after that and tried my luck all-in with any pair...

Yeah this issue is not just a minor thing,it affects the whole strategy of the game. Stealing the blinds becomes less profitable just to start with. Don"t want to make a big thing of it but something that should be addressed with Coral as I don"t think it is something that should just be "one of those things that happens". It does not normally happen on ipoker does it. The DTD software does not do this does it so I assume it is not an ipoker issue.

Maybe I am just sulking after a losing day though *lol*

This only started last night - I was playing cash yesterday lunch time and it was fine.... then last night it was screwed, and has been screwed all day today.  A pain in the arse for both tourneys and cash.

I noticed it in the satellite on Friday too - maybe it"s specific to certain games?

Hi all, just seen this. Very strange!. Will email my contact @Coral now, to see what they say.

Just played on Coral again tonight and it appears that I was the only one it was happening to....

Could it be something to do with players who have used the APAT link to register to Coral.....?

I don"t think that"s possible. It will almost 100% be an ipoker-wide problem, but intermittent in nature.

The bet sizing problem should now be fixed. Apologies for the problems this would have caused. Awaiting more information as to why it happened, how many players it affected, etc.
