hello, last week i won the goals goals goals competition and won entry to tikay's sleepstack whcih is valued at £11 to enter, anyway after getting myself ready for the BIG game, i got on the computer at around 7:10 (tourny started at 7) after logging in and waiting for table to pop up for few minutes i start to look through field at list of peole in the tourny, but to my surprise my name was not on the entry list but "pokerman" was, now i can accept that mistakes can happen and fair enough we have all made them. but after getting a p'm from sky rich saying i was in the tournament i expected to be in it.

received a phone call from sky earlier but wasnt able to take the call, so checked my account and it seems they have registered me in the £5.75 bounty hunter tomoro night, now to be honest i was expecting just a little bit more from sky, but first they forget to enter me and then they register me into a tournament that is half the value of my original tournament, it may be that my emotions are running a little high after the dissapointment of not being able to play tonight but i just think this is a tad unfair


thanks guys and gl on the tables (if you manage to get on) lol

    It is a bit unfair. Get back onto them and they should sort something out for you

    If true that is a disgrace. You've effectivley won £11 not "entry into the sleepstack". You've won £11 not £5.75.

    Imagine you'd sat'd ionto the main event and the same thing happened, Sky then gave you entry to a $5k side event...erm, $5k? Acknowledge it's a big contrast but the principal is the same.

    You should have option of £11 credited into yopur account or £11 towards any tournament you'd like (I.E you pay £11 into a £22 event)

    Disgrace if true/.

    Hi Porkerman,

    I was playing the tikay Deepie tonight, & you came into the Chat box & told me about this, & asked if I could help sort it. It's none of my business, of course, but I just wanted to help.

    I was playing 2 Tourneys at the time (& losing with set over set at that very moment!), but I did apologise, & added that I could not sort it tonight, but I promised I would sort it out in the morning.

    You said thanks, & that, as far as I was concerned, was that - we had agreed that I would get on the Case with the "right" Suits in the morning.

    Once I finished my Tournys tonight, I sent the note to the Suits.

    If you won Tournament Entries to the value of £11, that's what you will get. I imagine they just thought you'd want to play tomorrow, & they would sort out the rest later.

    On their behalf, sorry this happened.

    same here tikay, i came to you about 20 minutes after i had posted on here, with rich not on tonight i decided to find someone i thought would be able to get their voice heard and as far as i was concerned that person was you, so i left it with you and was gonna wait for your response untill i realised thay had entered me in the £5.50 bounty hunter, i wasnt sure what was happening, didnt know if you had maybe put me in it or maybe one of the mod's had.


    thanks for the comments guys
