Title: Betfair WSOP-E freeroll
Post by: WarBwastardo on August 31, 2010, 22:34:20 PM
If I heard correctly I believe the 57 players who made day 2 of the main event yesterday have been entered into a freeroll by Betfair for a WSOP-E event 3 seat scheduled for next Monday?  Not an online player, so not sure how this works.  Do we just have to log on to Betfair and we"ll be whizzed magically to our seats or do we have to confirm or register our names some how or what like?

Thank you Betfair incidentally, very generous of you.

Just a thought, but if the password leaks as you say, isn"t kinda gay that someone can still play and decrease our chances by possibly standing in our way. I imagine some punk who has a busted bankroll will fancy gatecrashing the game for the crack. i understand they wont get anything and the next eligible player will be rewarded but if an uneligible player busts you first by some ridiculous bad play, you"re gonna break a lamp. :-\

I think there will be a strong possibility that inelegable entrants will participate in order to collude. ie. players giving out password, getting their buddies to play and dumping chips. Surely it would be better to offer a ticket only freeroll, which must be possible as Betfair already run such tournaments. Having said that, I do thoroughly appreciate these added prizes by Betfair and Apat and hope that we can trust the honerability of all other Apat members.

Hi Raggie Maggie here

Have had a bit of a nightmare tonight - my dongle not working, so am having to use Andy (Hallstars) notepad to play the game, hence why I"m posting here under him :-(

Just wanna wish everyone good luck for tonight, and apologise cos on the notepad I cannot access the chat box on betfair.  Don"t think I am being ignorant, but will miss not being able to join in with the banter :-(

Once again good luck everyone

OK..fair enough...but there is no reason to post under his screen-name. You could log him out and log in as yourself.

I don"t know if APAT has any specific rules against account sharing but if they don"t..they should.

Apologise again, its just that my computer has all my usernames and passwords set up automatically.  I always seem to get it wrong when I"m using another computer that is not my own

I can assure you it is me, playing.  I wanted to let people know, as I really can"t chat on this notepad, and didn"t want people to think I was being ignorant.
