    Hi Dave

    A very warm welcome to Sky Poker, most of us are mad, but dont count that against us lolol

    I think Total Player could be improved if other members of the community had the chance to win a % of the Total Player. So, if 40 of us each had 0.5% of the Vegas winnings, we'd all be cheering the TP on like nobody's business!
    Once you get down to the last 3, you could have 120 different community members each having a piece of the action - now think about the interest that would generate!

    From my understanding, the chosen 10 for the total player comes from a pool of 50, the top performers that previous week.

    I want to make an extra effort to make the final 50 again on Matt B's 2nd week.

    Can anyone give me exact dates of when Matts week begins and ends?? - I ask because It surely cant be saturday - saturday, because when I got the phone call last time, it was very early in the week.

    If Tikay or Matt himself, or even the other mentors could help me with this, id appreciate it as I could schedule my time to maximise my chances of being considered! Thanx, DOHH

    Hi Do(hx7).

    Matt will be the Mentor next Saturday (NOT this Saturday, when it will be Ed), so that's Saturday 16th January. 

    However, my very strong advice to you would be to ignore that, & just play your game. That maximises your chances of being selected by any of the Mentors. It's really not wise to put all your eggs in one basket.

    Cheers for the reply TK, but it didn't really answer my question. Do you not know the answer? If so thats fair enough, if you do, but don't want to answer, I suppose that is fair enough as well, i'll have to try and find out another way.

    Ed will already have been given his top 50? and be looking through the HH's now? I was notified on the Tuesday, that I was in with a shout the following Saturday, So if no other information is available,
    I'll have to presume Matts next top 50 will be given the call by next Tuesday.

    The reason Im putting all my eggs 'in one basket' so to speak, is I really wanna prove Matt wrong for overlooking me last time. This will give me the motivation to play well, focus, and prove a point. Im at my best when thats the aim.

    If I just get some specific dates It would give me a big kick up the bum!

    No worries if ur 1) unaware if these or 2) aware of them but not willing to disclose them. I see where ya coming from with it.

    Thanx for takin the time to reply.

    Sorry man - I answered the question fully - I don't duck questions, you should know that by now! (Unless they are rude, & yours most certainly was not).

    I honestly don't know more than I told you. Just play your a-game, get in the top 50, & nature will take care of the rest.

    Matt reads the Thread anyway, so he'll see your Post. But really, I'd strongly advise against, in effect, favouring one Mentor. Three Mentors are better than one, it's like shoving with AK - give yourself more ways of winning.

    I'll be answering the other stuff that arose on Saturday night & Sunday as soon as I can, now the "storm" has passed. We don't mind any questions, & will answer them all, but when they are gratitiously insulting & extremely rude, as one or two were, I won't respond.

    I'll get on to them as soon as I can.

    Meanwhile, good luck Do(hx7) & everyone else.

    I think what Doh was asking was each mentor gets their 50 selected each week from the top performers, but there must be a timeframe for each week. i.e does it run for example from Monday to Sunday or Saturday to Friday etc etc and then the top players for that week will get a phone call the following week.

    I don't know the answer to that Charles, if I did, I'd Post it here.

    I'll find out though, & Post accordingly. Give me some time, I'll ask.
  • edited January 2010

    Thank ya very much guys, Flash for making sense of my waffle, and TK for trying to find out, I rekon Matts week will already have started, but await further news!

    Much appreciated, DOHH
  • edited January 2010

    Back to Do(hx7)'s question. Here is what the Terms & Conditions say.

    As I've already given the date Matt is next on, that should answer everything.

    "....1. The player selection period (the “Selection Period”) will run between 12 December 2009 to 13 February 2010. For each week of the Selection Period (and each week will run from Thursday until Wednesday, 50 players will be short-listed by Sky Poker for consideration and entry into the next stage of the Promotion....."

    Hi Phil,

    I will eventually post it on the Blog thread  / You Tube. We've converted half the show so far, and weather permitting should get the final bit up tomorrow.

    Rest assured it will go up by the end of the week - otherwise Friday 8pm on 865 / streamed live.

    Kind regards
