FAO. SKY_DES RE: MICKJENN1 FANCLUB TOURNAMENT

edited July 2009 in Poker Chat
sky falsely advertised this tournament as a deepstack with 12 minute blinds

after 60 minutes i am 30th/70 with 7000 chips

unfortunately someone somewhere has totally cocked up the blinds - they went up at such increments that this only equated to 7 big blinds

please confirm a full refund should be offered due to your error, there are a lot of unhappy players on here tonight

    Hi all,

    I have reviewed the blind structure for the tournament and as the "suit" who set it up for you all I have to hold my hands up and apologise as I inadvertently attached a more escalated blind structure than normal! As a few of you think it was more akin to riding the "Big One" at Blackpool rather than the a more leisurely ride I have entered  all the players from last night into next weeks "Mickjenjen1" tournament for free.

    i think it is an absolute disgrace that it has been moved to a tuesday,as mick knows i play pub poker so can't play,i think he has got together with the suits to fix it so i miss out on showing him what a far better player i am,i may have o switch to jonny chan's poker site!!!!!

    i will see what i can do,in all seriousness though i think its a bit strong to say "sky falsely advertised the tourny" they may of cocked up the structure but was obviously a genuine mistake,dont understand why people always think they are getting scammed or sky have an ulterior motive(they dont want players to play when five oo is on) the five oo will always be full imo,so well done sky for sorting it,lets be fair we have a player wanting to help build the community and wanting his own tourny put on and sky are doing their best to accommodate us...


    ps who the f.. is sam trickett???

    cheers tango

    Blind structure was waaaaaay too rapid. Sitting comfortably, I nipped out for a smoke and came back to having just 8,800 with blinds of 500/1000.

    You can guess the rest - shoved AK, lost to Phil12's 88.

    BOOM! I was gone.
