    I've been asked to pass on a message that anyone who wants to play in the MCM free entry tonight needs to d/l the software and create an alias in the next hour (until 2pm).

    I estimate about 80 runners for tonight so its well worth it imho!

    A quick, and undoubtedly stupid, question:

    What do you have to do to enter this freeroll comp? Do you simply download the all-in software and register a name, or do you also have to submit credit card details etc?


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    you can play without any money in the bank but you wont be able to rebuy etc.

    Its too late for today but you can still play tomorrow.

    is this a freeroll for a ticket or a freeroll for a ticket to a GF?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,506 ✭✭✭Shortstack


    It is a Free entry tournament with $50 re-buys and a $50 top up. The top 16 go through from each heat (one tonight, one tomorrow). The final 32 will then play a final for the ticket worth $30,000. The final has no re-buys and everyone starts with the same chips. The overlay is huge unless 300 players have a re-buy and top up which is seriously unlikely as only around 300 or so may even be eligible.

    Damn it sounds good and i can't play :mad:


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    About 160 players are eligible (ie: on Peter's downline and already have downloaded the client and set up an alias).

    I estimate that about 80 will show up so the overlay is pretty good alright. Peter Roche is putting up the ticket but I've been watching him playing on the site for the last week and he's made double that in that time, the b*stard!

    Why is Lucky_blind registered for tonight then? Is someone stealing your nick? Bad form if so.

    same problem that i'm getting (although i registered at approx 1:55pm, so i may have been far too close to the line!). Anyway, great that all the pros are using up their chance tonight - tomorrow is going to be so much easier!

    Can you only play one night or are you just saying that it will be a good 16 gone.........

    Okay, there's the solution to the problem - you have to be on Peter's downline? I signed up through oscar's link - does that mean i can't play at all?

    I signed up through Oscars too and I am playing as we speak.........

    me too


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Oscar is on Peter's downline so everyone he invited is too.

    You need to have registered with the website, downloaded the software and created an alias. If you can sit down at a table you are ready to go for the freeroll.

    A new invite list will be submitted for tomorrow's game so you have a second chance to register now.

    Sorry about the short notice, Prima kinda sprung this restriction at last minute apparently.

    If you have any problems please phone the club tomorrow as Adam will be in there all day helping people get registered and on the freeroll.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,537 ✭✭✭Ste05

    In now aswell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,506 ✭✭✭Shortstack


    Following a phone call to the person dealing with problems relating to joining the free roll today I found out a vital little snippet of info. Apparently the list of eligible players was created at 10.30am in order for Prima to set it up restricted to those players. If you had not downloaded the poker software and set up an alias by then, unfortunately you will not be able to play.
