Why isn"t the excess paid out as one prize?  Seems silly paying more places which barely cover the buy in.

^This. Will be ****e to come 5th for £5.25 tonight. There is £31.50 excess tonight - would much rather see that go to third place.... it"s a satellite and doesn"t need any kind of convention payout structure.


I will email Coral to find out if it"s possible to pay out the cash to next player down, or if iPoker sats require the payout to be allocated the way it"s been set up currently.



Any word back from Coral on this?  Same thing has happened with the prize structure.


Coral have confirmed that from Thursday"s satellites onwards any excess money will be paid to the first finisher outside of the seat prizes.


Well they"ve messed that up again then!


Have just emailed them again to ask what happened.


Even more glaring tonight as the excess for 2nd was almost enough for a seat.


Agree it"s incredibly glaring, but isn"t it good (in a way) that you finished 3rd, and got paid £20.25 for doing so?...


I"m not results orientated haha.  Satellite tourneys should only have one further prize after seats.


Yes, agree with this. As posted above have emailed to ask what happened/sort for next time. The APAT welsh sat is set up correctly, not sure why this wasn"t fixed. Admin error/oversight I"d guess. These things happen.
