Thanks Paddy!

Credit where credit is due (pardon the pun!)
PP just mailed me (and others I'm sure) to ask me to check my account cause its $50 heavier and some extra action points......sure enough when I logged in it was.

NICE!!

Imposter · 27-07-2005 5:22pm

Why?

/I feel left out

willis · 27-07-2005 5:42pm

yep,50 extra in mine,wp paddy

bohsman · 27-07-2005 5:52pm

The scabby bstards only gave me a tenner

DeVore · 27-07-2005 5:57pm

Thats cos they saved you some time and put your money into other peoples accounts

I havent been able to check mine yet. Presumeably they've taken 200 from mine for the same reason

bohsman · 27-07-2005 5:59pm

Ive actually started winning on tribeca, the speed 2.5k guaranteed is an easy little tourney, blinds up every 3mins

ocallagh · 27-07-2005 6:05pm

i got €0

Waylander · 27-07-2005 6:08pm

I got $50 too.

bohsman · 27-07-2005 6:10pm

Ocallagh, thats probably because you never play on ppp, you didnt even play on their site when you were in vegas, theyre giving you nothing cos youre obviously a bad customer, still better than the insult that is $10

roryc · 27-07-2005 6:34pm

BigDragon · 27-07-2005 8:53pm

not as insulting as only getting 200 paddy points...
and them pretty much sharing my birthday, the cheek.

Mountjoy Mugger · 27-07-2005 9:41pm

Got 200 points alright. No cash however. I do play a bit as well. Not too unhappy though

califano · 27-07-2005 10:18pm

i got $50 i canny believe eh. i might ask paddy and the promotion girls out for a drink on me like. i havent noticed the pp promotion girls around in a while now. they were brought to promenence on the sportsbook homepage like they were there to stay then pffff?. i hope they havent all broken up or anything. off to double up now to make sure i have the round covered.

MadsL · 27-07-2005 10:45pm

$50!! Thank you Paddy!

Wallko · 28-07-2005 1:27am

yep me too, 50 big 1s!!!

thought it was a mistake and afraid to ask were it came from in case they took it off me!

Imposter · 28-07-2005 7:16am

I think I may have got 10. Either that or there's been a big change in the exchange rate. Not sure about Points though as I have quite a few.

shaydy · 28-07-2005 9:04am

tenner for me aswell, better than a kick in the nuts! Fair play PP!

karlh · 28-07-2005 9:36am

$50, thanks paddy.

there a catch to this?

kencleary · 28-07-2005 9:50am

FFS I got 200 Action Points - not much better than a kick in the balls

karlh · 28-07-2005 9:54am

they reckoned you'ld just throw it all in on the next hand you play so figured they could find it a better home

lmao, I know 200 action points is sh_ite but surely its a LOT better than a kick in the balls.

As my mate said one day 'sure a kick in the balls would knock a cow'. Think about it.

karlh · 28-07-2005 11:00am

lol

nice

seriously though, these action points things aren't worth shíte are they!?

i know there's freerolls you can enter with them but that's only good if you want to get through 200 people to win $20.

are PPP actually going to open a shop to spend them in or is there something worthwhile to do with them that i've missed, any big satellites or anything with points buyin?

think i have bout 40,000 of the feckers.

kencleary · 28-07-2005 11:06am

Yeah Tribeca sites are rubbish in general as regards rake.

There is one freeroll worth playing though. Every Monday night there's a 5k freeroll at 11.30 our time. Top 18 or so get paid and they usually have 150 or so runners. I finished 6th in it a week or two ago and got $175. It's 25k action points to enter though.......

We were just talking about that in work today. its the only good freeroll they have. As Karl says the others are all-in fests with 200 players for ****e money. Even a couple of sats for live tournies with your points would be nice. Wasn't that how Oscar won the WSOP ticket ?

mewso · 28-07-2005 11:11am

I'm thinking of playing it myself. For one thing I want to use up as much action points as I can so I have no more ties to VC or PP. I'm not interested in playing on either anymore. It should be renamed to Rebuy City. As a player I'm going to speak with my business and they can't have it anymore. Paying reg. fees on rebuys is too much now and with hardly any freezeouts to mention it's all unintersting bar the odd STT. I'll pop in from time to time if somethings on but thats it.

Waylander · 28-07-2005 12:01pm

How many players are there usually in that tournie Ken?

kencleary · 28-07-2005 12:38pm

Usually in and around 150 runners.

Funny thats exactly what you said in the first post

Come on wake up readers.

kencleary · 28-07-2005 2:39pm

Yeah bloody riff-raff

Waylander · 28-07-2005 3:13pm

Sorry guys

PPP-Pit Boss · 29-07-2005 1:41pm

:0) Hello. You are welcome lovely boardie customers! I was in a particularly giving mood and lets just say... it was a VERY good shopping day for me!
Really though thank you for your loyalty and support over the first six months. May the next six be as thrilling!
PS if you are wondering as to why there are different levels it is a loyalty bonus...

Doc Farrell · 29-07-2005 1:48pm

I think the more you drop, the more you got for free. Thats why ocallagh got 5 action points and I got the full 50 quid. Even PP thinks I'm a loser, oh god.........

Yeah, he's got so much in his acc. now he wouldn't notice a $50 difference

ocallagh · 29-07-2005 4:44pm

i am just terrible at bankroll management, coupled with one or two games after a work night out, I have no idea if there's an extra 50 in there!

Go to Cashier and check transaction History and there should be a deposit of anything up to about €44.

Thanks Paddy!
