Hi Leigh.

I intend playing both satellites in the 888 lobby tonight, (I"m easily confused so won"t worry which one is which till I exit the first one!)

My Q is; as I"ve already bought in for Coventry is it OK to just unregister from it in the lobby if I win a seat tonight?

Yes, not a problem.  If you win a seat in a satellite, you will be manually entered into the event by 888poker, which means that you will be able to unregister from the holding tank, and allow someone else to buyin.

Presumably that will randomly give the seat to the lucky person who checks the lobby and sees there"s 119 registered instead of 120?

Or can the "qualified for a comp you"re already registered for" situation be linked to the seat exchange somehow? Seems fairer to give the people who asked first to get any that become available?

Not possible to link to seat exchange as it creates a lot of admin.

I agree, not ideal, but we"re upfront about how it will work, so if a player really wants a seat, then they"ll have to keep an eye on the lobby once the satellites finish.

In the unlikely event that I win a seat, I"d be happy to attempt a synchronised unregister/register manoeuvre with the first person on the list if it could be arranged.

If you want to do that, then great.

I must be missing something, but I can"t find the satellite on 888.  Can anyone tell me the tournament ID or point me in the right direction? Many thanks.

Craig
