Please don't get your hopes up about getting a Sky Poker advent calendar this year, it is almost certainly going to be the golden ticket promo instead, I would bet my Xmas stockings on that being the case.

    The code for the advent calendar is most likely still on a backup file somewhere. It's still not too late to do the right thing in the spirit of Xmas! Golden ticket promo mainly rewards regs who can hoard hundreds of tickets against the little guy who only has a dozen tickets or so.

    I can't remember how either of those promo's work, please enlighten me and anyone else in the dark.

    You're the first person to moan about the Christmas promotion before we know what it is yet, I hope your tactic works and bags you a prize :)

    Ill be using the "I never win anything in these Christmas promotions" tactic , worked for me last year.

    count yourself lucky at least you have a chance to win a prize in the first week I dont because I get a full expenses paid trip where I am paid wages for the week to barbados on the company trip. I cant play on sky poker in Barbados so I cant win any prizes for the first week.




    I am the pessimism champion on these forums dont forget that.

    It's even worse than I imagined - December daily draws where the little guy will only have 1-2 tickets against regs who have 50 tickets a day. As individual little guys, the odds are massively stacked against them but they do have power in numbers so hopefully a couple of them can pull through and win a prize at some point. But overall it's a brutal promotion for recs and not in keeping with the spirit of Xmas.

    So what you saying, they are like premium bonds if you buy one for a quid you expect to win the same as some who buys the max of £50,000 ?

    absolutely not I am the champion of negatitivity and doom and gloom here, your not going to make an attempt on my title just before or when I am away not going to let that happen I will do what i need to to defend that title.



    Wa even though I am getting paid let alone a fully paid for holiday to just chill in Barbados for nearly a whole week I wont be able to stand a long shot draw of trying to win £100 bingo ticket thingy.

    always look on the negative side, despite the fact that it is a free promo more competitive then other sites lets focus on the fact that your unlikely to win it every single day. Really you should expect to make at least £100 a week just for a a few hours and casual play heck you should expect £100 a day from the promo on top of what you would normally make anyway.

    like on party you can win a box like worth 20p if your very lyucky its usually worth 1 cent. anyway doesnt matter cause russia will destroy the world anyway.

    I bought some chocolate advent calendars to ease the pain of not getting a sky poker advent calendar. It doesn't fully make up for the disappointment, but it helps.

    100% Dozza goes on a hot streak and wins like 5 of them. :D

    Ha won't be the case, I'll be taking a break until Xmas week. I would have found the time on certain days if it was an advent calendar, but the daily draws require a lot of play to get a decent number of tickets for the following day's draw and I simply don't have the time to accumulate all these tickets for a long shot at best. Best of luck to you though!

    I'm still crying for poor old @Doubleme who has to go on an all expenses paid trip to Barbados for a week.
