"WebDollar is currently unable to process your transaction"

I get this error when I try to deposit using Neteller. How do I get around it?

Also, it was mentioned in this thread that the blind structure would be modelled on the EPT structure but the structure posted here
is nothing like the EPT blind structure so I don't think it's fair to compare, especially when an EPT event takes 5 days to run a 400 player event and this is a 2 day event with a larger field and shorter blind levels. I'm sure the structure will be as good as it can be, I just don't understand why it's being compared to the EPT.

I don't think I claimed that the blind structure was modelled off of the EPT, I said the payout structure was but not the blind structure as far as I remember.

I would give webdollar a few minutes and then try again. It seems to be playing up this morning. If not I'm sure C4Queen will be PM'ing you shortly (I think she is in meetings this morning so will prob be later this afternoon)....

Tell me more about these Mermaid girls and the freebies their offering (this will encourage more to register pronto!)

I'm sorting out loads of different players in the same situation;
Your friend should drop me an email stephen@pokerireland.ie

It is the most unadvisable way to go about registering (in someone else's name). If you win the tournament you will run into serious difficulties getting your money.

____________

Guys and girls, Mermaid accept direct bank transfers, neteller and a load of other simple deposit methods. Please have a read through the different deposit options in the cashier before you assume that credit card is the only way to get money online.

There will not be any Danish /swedish Mermaid girls along, sorry for that.
But there might be some Irish Mermaids ;-) you never know.

We got condoms (hmmm not MY idea to make those) saying Mermaid- All in!
lol

I can bring some houndred of those along to you boys!

Tar.Aldarion

Lol, I would love some!

It's not like I haven't made that joke.

Laser is an option through Moneybookers.

Ste, are all overseas attendees registered as of now? Getting there slowly. 500 will be a landmark number.

No all the overseas players are not registred yet, we got a quite few actually from france and the regulation in Franch makes it impossible for them to use their cards on gambling sites.

WE are trying to find ways around it to get these players in so i think 500 is soon there and my guess is we land at 600.



anna panna..

Reg close on sunday midnight GMT time so many houers left to get 10, 10, 10, 10, and so on.....:)

The Clamper

428 = 72k in the prize pool so far

i have been asked some pretty dumb questions in the past but this guy really takes the biscuit and 1st prize in the "dopey-stakes-derby"

" if the prize pool reaches 100,000 would we consider capping it and allowing free entry to those less well off" ????

he knows who he is if he wants to comment on my answer here or in another forum

i explained about how fair that would be to those who have scraped together the funds to register etc
then
i told him that i could only think of 2 possible answers and both of them ended in the word off

now really...........

C4Queen

lol

ok Clamper.. take your pills now and calm down. there are no dumb questions (lie) ....

Well for an example today i got a question from someone that didnt have enough money in ones account and still wonder why he couldnt register. And i think he meant it serious. Now that is a dumb question, ohh nopo sorry there isnt any dumb questions!

Hep Hep 429 COME on GET IN!!


and now back to a very improtant matther: Where will we all meet for drinks on friday evening? suggestions? A bar preferably else Dave Masters will only suggest his hotel room and we cant be 40 people there- again!

I was planning on going to this but discovered today that I have to take a flight on Sunday afternoon.... I don't know what my chances are of making it to Sunday but there is no point imo in playing if I know I cannot see it through. I did it once before at CHL's opening night and played like a muppet (even more than usual )

So I'm wondering will there be supporting tournaments, side action, sit and gos whatever going on on the Saturday?

Yes, side tournaments a plenty mate, You could arrive at 1pm and I would expect to find a number of sit & go's and lots of other action until late into the night.
