FPP games on Boss
« on: January 19, 2014, 19:23:51 PM »

I"ll be announcing the plan in the coming week, but it looks like our last day on Boss will be 31st March. I"d recommend withdrawing your funds before then. However, if you don"t it"s not a big issue. They will be able to be claimed for a further 21 months, until 1st January 2016 (after which point any left will be donated to a donkey sanctuary in Malta). I will be posting more details on both very soon.

Tom, there"s FPP games running from 20th to 27th Jan, and I will set them up for 2 weeks in Feb also.

Your saying withdraw funds from the site, is the site closing or are we just not supporting the site as a group. I enjoy playing on Poker.uk believe it or not. Or are you advising us to use up the FPP..?

Unfortunately, Boss (the network that Poker.co.uk is on) is closing it"s poker network for good on 30th June. This meant we had to find somewhere else to house our games quickly, so arranged for the APAT Coral room. The day we"re closing the PCUK room is 31st March. After that date you won"t be able to log-in. So I"d recommend withdrawing cash before then and spending as many FPPs you can.

However, as per my reply above, it"s not a massive issue if you don"t withdraw before we close, you"ll still be able to get your money with no problem.

I"ll be making a proper announcement in the next couple of days and emailing all players.

Will there be any tourneys where I can spin up my remaining 50-off Frequent Flyer Points ?

They ran every week, then more recently for 2 weeks a month - Monday to Thursday + the final on Sunday.

I think rather than continue to set up unsupported FPP games on Boss when we are leaving, it would be better to create an equivalent series of freerolls on APAT Coral and invite members who have over xx FPPs to participate.

I"ve got nearly 500 FPPs, but haven"t been able to find anything to use them on, apart from an ISPT qualifier. I hope they won"t be wasted.

Yes, big database of players and how many FPPs they have that I"ll be taking a copy of.

Both these points are answered on the post directly above yours. Not sure how you couldn"t find any games when we"ve run several hundreds of them though?... (without getting a calculator out, I think we"ve run over 300 FPP games, and 60+ "finals" or thereabouts*).

*edit: my initial estimate was higher, and I think wrong (400 and 75 respectively).

I think what Matt is saying, he would run some Freerolls on Coral depending on how many FPP you have. So he could run several at different levels i.e., 0 - 50, 50 - 100, 100 - 150 and so on with prizes increasing depending at what level you play.
