More Satelites for the Open and a little news...

DeVore

There have been two mid week Grand Finals put on the system to accomodate those who couldnt play in a GF on the weekend. So they are on on Wednesday, 8pm this week and Wednesday next week.
$36 rebuy.
There are the usual feeder satelites going all the time for tickets into these GF's.

Finally, I noted the hand histories not being available (as people had mentioned it on here before). We hope to have hand histories released in Version 20 of the software ie: next release... I'm well aware that no poker site is perfect and PP isnt either but as long as I'm involved we'll be player-focused and driven by player requests as much as possible so keep them coming, we've a rare direct line to God here!

I hear there might be a vacancy in that line of work. Do you speak any Italian?

Skitbra

If you're behind a proxy do you know what has to be added to the config.ini file or is there some other way? Will there be a linux port available?

DeVore

Skitbra, I'll ask the Operations manager and get back to you. I know a few people had been looking for ports aince I dont think the Wine likes the exe for some reason.

As for proxy's you might find that whoever controls the proxy has probably banned all poker sites as "gambling oriented". I'll ask all the same though.

I work in network admin and use a package called websense to block the gambling site. There's no way for the end users to get around it.

DeVore

Skitbra, the proxy question has been forwarded to Tribeca, I'll dig further for an answer to the Linux question.

There's always a way.

DeVore

Ok, the linux question has also been forwarded directly to the Tribeca developers by the Ops manager in PPP. Soon as we have an answer I'll let you know.

As NickyO'D writes, if the firewall/proxy is setup to STOP you doing this, then you have few options beyond quitting and going pro
If its your home machine or wireless router then you can adjust it to white-list PPP.
I'll get details for you if I can.

Karl:
Its a MTT. As the entries increase the number of tickets as prizes increases too... its not limited to 1 ticket and that piece of the site is poorly worded I guess.
