    The confusion here is that the opening poster thinks their points from a while back can be used to gain entry to something.They cant i believe.They are just basically a record of your activities.You need to be earning points during any given week to use them, in that week, or in 24hours prior to some special fr etc

    Play 200 x £20 gtd freerolls, use up your 2000 points, do not rebuy.

    Once you have done that play enough to earn access to the £1000 gtd freerolls that run every night at 7.30 (they also carry other bonuses up top), if you can push on to 100 points then you will also earn a £2.30 tournament ticket, both are great added value........AND you can still use them for those £20 gtd freerolls even though you have had value from them already.

    and you can use your points to enter tourneys i'm just saying that these tourneys are not worth playing when a min cash does not earn you entry to anything not even a 30p sit and go all i am saying and all i have ever said is that the tourneys could be made a little larger by multiplying the amount of points required to enter and multiplying the prizepool by the same amount this would make absolutely no difference to skypoker whatsoever but would make a lot of players very happy so where is the downside

    Right, if you wanna play freerolls that require points to enter, then play some **** poker. If you aren't in a position to deposit and play then save up some cash and come back to it later in the year.

    Just because you played an MTT in 2013 doesn't mean you should suddenly be entitled to qualify for all the promotions and freerolls ongoing in 2016.

    Dear me.

    I bought a TV and stand from Curry's years ago. Don't recall getting any loyalty free stuff from them.

    at what point did i say that i wanted to use my points to enter promotional freerolls i am ONLY TALKING ABOUT THE 10pt FREEROLLS the amount of points required by these and the prizepools could all be increased

    even if i have the time to play every 10pt freeroll that you have on this site (4 a day) then it will take me 2 months to get through my 2000 pts

    i'm not a reg so i don't play every freeroll because personally i do not think they are worth the hassle and this is what i am going on about

    i understand that the promo freerolls are for current and regular players and i would never assume that anyone should get a seat into one of these for free

    Why should they? To help someone who only plays occasionally?

    They are the basic level entry freeroll, followed by the weekly Rewards FR, then stuff for UKOPs and main events, with VLV at the top of the tree.

    These are the freerolls on Sky. Don't like it, don't play here.

    would you play in them if the points and prizepools were multiplied by 5 or 10

    thinking about it as well if you do not want to increase the size of the 10pt freerolls then why not introduce a steps style tournament where people can start off with a 10p  and work their way up to a £110 entry for a main event at least a min cash in a 10pt freeroll would give you an entry to one of these

    the prizes for these would be tickets not cash

    A better idea just scrap these freerolls and use that cash towards additional seats in the 7pm MTT entry freeroll. how many other players in them freerolls will be above £0 after 761 MTTs?

    promo freerolls for regs are the 7pm viva las vegas freeroll sat, the 7:30 1K freeroll and the mayhem freeroll. not them £20 guarentee turbo freeroll. want to spend the minimum do 25 30p turbo DYMs and you'll get 25 points
