    For 7 straight nights, starting tomorrow (Monday), the Main Event Guarantee will be DOUBLED.

    When this was done previously, a few weeks back, the aggregate Overlay ran into 5 figures.
     
    It will conclude with a £30,000 Super Roller, of course.

    Cash games?

    Double points from midnight tonight (Sunday) to midnight next Sunday.

    Please remember, that if you "play through" midnight, the points don't count for that day, they get carried over to the next day.
     
    So, on Sunday 31st January, if you have racked up points during that day, you MUST "stand" before midnight if you want the Double Points to count.
     
    There may be a flip side to that, &
    this is just my interpretation, & you try this at your own risk, but.......

    If you play TODAY (Sunday 24th January) & "play through" Midnight, it may well be that you'd get Double Points for today's play simply by staying on site through midnight. (In an unbroken session). 

    Also, please note in the T & C's......

    "Points earned from heads-up cash tables will not be included"

    SNG's

    Double Points on SNG's all week.

    But.........

    This will NOT start & finish at midnight on the respective Sundays as previously advertised.

    It will now start at NOON ON MONDAY, & finish at NOON ON MONDAY the following week.

    The T & C's will be amended to reflect this.

    Just checking re this whole playing through midnight for points issue.

    When you play cash the points on the widget go up in real time (almost) not in chunks when you stand from a table. So does the midnight thing only apply to any additional rake back calculations?

    I honestly don't know, but my understanding is that although you SEE them on the Widget, that is "indicative" only, & the points are not actually applied until the player stands.

    I'll ask, & get back to you.

    Hi Bus Bloke,

    The MTT's don't pay Double Points, they are Double Main Event Guarantees, though maybe that was what you meant.

    They are currently in the Lobby at the "regular" Guarantees, but I believe they will be corrected very shortly, or even shortlyer.

    Hi Paul,

    Please see my Post further up the thread, which I made yesterday - the SNG Promotion does not now start until Midday today, & it runs until Midday Next Monday, exactly as happened last time.

    Paul,

    This is what I posted yesterday;

    "SNG's

    Double Points on SNG's all week.

    But.........

    This will NOT start & finish at midnight on the respective Sundays as previously advertised.

    It will now start at NOON ON MONDAY, & finish at NOON ON MONDAY
     the following week.

    The T & C's will be amended to reflect this."

    I do have some sympathy with you on this one though, as it was originally due to be midnight.

    This will continue until Noon next Monday.

    Apologies if I sounded a bit short this morning. I must have been in a Monday morning grump.

    I aint been on the forum much for a few days so just knew (from looking ages ago) that this week was 'double everything' and assumed it would start from the begging of the week (00:01 this morning), without bothering to read this thread in full, so my fault.

    Ended up taking advantage of double points on cash instead.

    glgl all
