sunday donkaments

Mr.Plough

who's in what

ipoker 100k and ipoker 25k so far, still trying to qualify for the million

robinlacey

just the two million wcoop thing for me unless i can finally get through to neteller and get them to unblock my account,but its not looking likely!

wcoop thing should be good,15k starting stack and 30 minute clock.

Ollieboy

the stars event will go on for agesssss, about 18 hours I reckon. Some people have to work

I'm playing the warm up, maybe the I-poker, Mansion and might give mermaids 250k a go.

18 hours!

jesus,i didn't get much sleep last night,this could be tough going if i don't donk out of it early on.

rogue trader

lets be honest. it would be worth the 18 hours!!! drink lots of coffee

robinlacey

oh of course,if i'm still there after two hours i'll be doing well!

worried about the tea sitaution though,i'm staying in a hotel with no bar.

i have tea with me so i'll have to try and sweet talk the receptionist into getting me some hot water during the breaks!

You shoulda got $200 for that or so? Not bad for 4 hrs and an $11 buy-in.

Robin, go into the events tab and click on the lobby for last weeks $530 event. Then consider that the standard will be better and there is 5000 extra chips in play per entrant.

True I think it was longer though

I'm amazed so many people (including myself) trust neteller with their cash considering their brutal customer service. Its always been a mission for me any time i've tried to contact them by phone.

Wrt to tonights donkaments, no luck for me in the 2mil sat, so just the Mansion 150K for me. (decent 50k or so overlay)

Nothing of significance. The WCOOP hasn't been kind to me so far (infact no big stars tourney I have ever played has) so I'm only 1 - tabling the $11 deepstack and watching the NFL.

I have no place in this thread - but good luck everyone!!

00800 7767 6343 is the number I used.
Just checked and it's the one that they've listed for Italy too.

The guy on the phone asked a few security questions and then unlocked the account, was fantastic.

The online support were f*cking ignorant bastards who I'll never deal with again.

Robin, last weeks WCOOP ended at about 3pm our time. I came back from a lunch meeting and checked, they had just started heads up at about 2.30 and they went at it for about 30 mins! This after playing 17 hours straight. Mind you there are some 30 min breaks along the way. Good luck.
