Another Viva Las Vegas Super-Sat!

edited April 2012 in Poker Chat

As you know, we had one last week & it was huge fun, though it missed the guarantee by a goodly lump. Young Samantha won it, from kohan, in a really thrilling game.

Up for grabs were a £1,100 VLV "Final" Seat & FIVE VLV Semi-Final Seats, each worth £240, all for this Sunday's Final. 

It cost £11 I think, was capped at 230 runners, & those seats were GUARANTEED.

The good news is that it wil be REPEATED this Thursday, & we are trying to see if it can, at least in part, be covered on 865, too.
 
Not sure when it will go in the Lobby, but deffo no later than Thursday morning. Watch ouit for it, & remember (he says, forever optimistic) that it will be capped at 230 runners.

    Whoa, hold up - I'm not done yet!

    Depending on how this goes on Thursday, they MIGHT repeat it on Friday, too!
     
    Binking a £10,000 package for £11 is the nuts, or almost.

    I'm sat next to Mother, who has been talking to some of the current qualified players this morning.....

    "What date do you want to fly to Vegas?"

    "Yes, we will sort you a suite in the Rio Hotel"

    How good does all that sound?

    Gotta be in it to win it. Tell your friends!

    Just to point out that on Friday night, all the decent players on the site will be in Cardiff, so easy binkage :)

    I expect it will be repeated IF it gets enough runners on Thursday. It might get repeated weekly or twice weekly IF it got enough runners, in fact.

    Some things are within the control of the players, & if enough support it, it'll get repeated as often as necessary, if they don't (which is fair enough) it wont.

    "Supply & Demand" is the key to everything in business, but it is a 2 way street.

    Latest news.
     
    The Tourney will appear in the Lobby this afternoon, & will have a TV Icon on it, so that 865 will be able, if scheduling permits, to show at least some of it, including, one hopes, the sharp end.

    Thx Nags m8 :)

    Oooooh hard one Rancid, 1k would be a huge boost to my BR, yet I'd probably donk it off in a month or so playing drunkern poker! So on that note, bring on Sunday.... and I shall be playing without the influence!!

    The talking is going to be my main problem, no way can I turn chat off and not a chance I'll be able to shut up (hopefully my waffle will tilt the table)
