Temporary change to the daily 6pm Sunday Major Freeroll, effective today, Monday 5th July

It's unclear at present if the Sunday Major will run this coming Sunday (11th July), & if it does, what the guarantee will be. This is due to the Euros. On Wednesday, if England win their Semi-Final, they go forward to the Final @ 8pm on Sunday. If that happens, Sunday night's poker schedule will obviously see much reduced guarantees & even some cancelled MTT's. This MAY include the Sunday Major.
So for the next three night's (Monday 5th, Tuesday 6th & Wednesday 7th) the nightly 6pm Sunday Major Freeroll will NOT run. The situation will be re-visited on Thursday morning, once it's known if england have qualified.
Tonight, instead of the Sunday Major Freeroll offering 3 x £110 seats, there will be a Marksman Freeroll, offering 10 x £33 seats to tonight's Marksman Main Event. The same logic will be applied on Tuesday & Wednesday. Tonight's version is already in the lobby as "Marksman Freeroll" with registration due to open at 4pm.
Here's the prize fund;
"The top 10 finishers will win a seat into the £5,000 Marksman Bounty Hunter at 8pm tonight. To be eligible to register players must earn 20 points in the past 24 hours to enter. 3 minute blinds, late reg open for 15 minutes."
Hope that all makes sense, if not, or any questions, fire away.

The same logic will apply tonight (Tuesday), although this time the 6pm Freeroll will award three x £110 tickets to tonight's 9pm Summit.
Rinse repeat tonight, when it will point to the 8pm Predator Main.
Tomorrow (Thursday), once it's known whether England have made the Final, it will be reviewed again, once a decision has been made as to whether the Major runs this Sunday.
Either way, this Freeroll will continue to run daily & give £330 of seats per night. It will return to normal no later than next Monday.
Same again tonight, the 6pm Freeroll will offer 10 x £33 seats into tonight's Hitman Main.
Note that this weeks Sunday Major has disappeared from the Lobby. I've not spoken to the Suits but my guess is that it won't run this week.
