Most important of all, you must Opt-In if you want to get involved.
Every time this runs we get hard-luck stories from peeps who had forgotten to Opt In. Don't be that person. If you are going to get involved, Opt In now.
Points CANNOT be backdated if you Opt In too late.
The T & C's are as usual, but here's a couple of important ones you should take particular note of;
Only points earned once a player has opted will count towards the earning requirements. Points earned can be backdated to the start of the date of opt in only. For example, if you opt in on Tuesday 3rd August at 5pm, only poker points earned from 00:01 that day will count.
Players can only play in one league at a time. If a player chooses to change leagues in the middle of a Promotional Week, any league points earned will not count towards the accrual of points in their new chosen league. Only the poker points earned after they have opted into the new league will count. Once you have opted in to your chosen league, do not opt in to the same league again. This will override any progress in that league and ALL LEAGUE POINTS WILL BE LOST.
And especially this one.....
Any poker points earned during a cash game session are not awarded until the player stands from the table. Please be aware that this is vitally important when approaching the end of each week (Sunday Midnight). If a player stands after the turn of Sunday midnight, all points earned during that session will go on to the new week.
Please note, you can only play in one league at a time. Points earned are backdated to the start of the day you opted in on. If you opt into a league and earn points, but then click the opt in button again on your own or on another league later on in the same promotional week your points will be wiped out. The opt in button will not say 'You have opted in' so there is no need to click it again.
There will be a daily leaderboard throughout the Promo.
Prize money will be paid on the Monday following the conclusion of each week.
Q. Do I need to opt in each week?
A. No. Unless you enter a different promo code, you'll automatically stay in the previous league that you played in.
Any more questions, don't hesitate to ask.
----------------------
What if you sit now and come off after midnight (10.44pm pm Sunday) - Do you get your points for that session counting toward the league despite the promo not officially starting yet)
Well I deliberately swerved the question last night, but I suspect if you were playing cash pre-midnight & did not "stand" then you are off to a Sky Poker Premiership flyer. Assuming you opted in of course.
