Where can I find all the satellites in the tournament lobby?
There is a new filter that has been added called ‘Punta Cana’, if you click on this filter all the satellites will appear.
Can I exchange my Punta Cana package or tournament buy-in for cash?
No. All prizes are non-refundable, non-transferable and cannot be converted to cash. You must go or forfeit your seat and package.
What if I am unable to travel to the event?
By participating in the Punta Cana Satellites you declare that you are ready and able to travel to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic in order to play at the event, on or around 4th November 2014. This includes any and all documents or visas required for travel to the destination.
Can I win more than one package?
No. This promotion is limited to one package per customer.
I won the Punta Cana Package so what happens now?
You will be contacted by our third party partner through email within 48 hours of winning. They will contact you on the email address registered to your Sky Poker account. They will collect and confirm your personal information and preferences and reserve your package. They will also inform you of all the important information required for travel. It is your responsibility to ensure that your Sky Poker account contact information is current and accurate.
We will then credit your Sky Poker account with £800 cash or the equivalent of this depending on your account currency. This cash credit is so you can book a flight and/or use it as spending money in Punta Cana You are responsible for arranging your travel documents including all applicable passports, visas, etc to travel to and from Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.
Who is responsible for booking the flights to Punta Cana?
All winners of the Punta Cana Package are responsible for booking their flights to and from Punta Cana. Sky Poker and our third party partner will not manage any part of the flight/travel bookings.
What Airport should I fly to?
There are two main airports that players can fly into, but Punta Cana International Airport is the only one we will provide transfers to and from because it is only 30 minutes away from the resort. Santo Domingo International airport is the second and is around 4 hours away, the cost is about 600 dollars and this is not part of the package transfer deal.
How will the airport transfers work?
Our third party partner will need their flight information ASAP after they have booked it so the transfers can be pre-arranged with the hotel. A minimum of 24 hours does need to be given, however the more advance notice the better. Please see above in respect of applicable airports and transfers.
Will I need a Visa/Travel Card to travel to the Dominican Republic?
Yes you will need to purchase a travel card prior to arriving in the Dominican Republic. You can find the full details here: http://www.dominicanembassy.org.uk/Touristcard.html. The tourist cards will be delivered directly to their address and players will need to allow for 7 days’ notice.

We're both in the same spot but I want to be able to play the Prio one, and you want to be able to play in the non-prio one. Fwiw, I think it makes more sense to be based on Oct status (so we'd be classed as being Prio) but could go either way, glgl.
it would be so easy for someone whos not priority with a massive bankroll multi-tabling 8-10 tables on 2p/4p and the guys who just play for fun on the micros wont stand a chance against these players which means not everybody will be in a fair game. im just pointing the fact out that i play 10p/20p so even the regs on this level could multi table on 2p/4p and just play as many hands as the want without really damaging there roll so really anybody who is a regular micro playerhasnt got a look in....dont dive on me you forum regs im just stating my opinion lol

It seems to me to be clearly defined on the Promo page, as follows.....
".....Starting from September 30th, every time you play a cash game and are involved in a raked hand we will track it on our Punta Cana Cash Kings leaderboard . (A raked hand is defined as any hand in which you are dealt hole cards and a minimum of 1 pence in rake is taken.)....."
The Promo page is HERE
So the theory is that to succeed we should be doing the absolute opposite and filling into the lowest level tables en masse and (broadly) playing tighter than a super-tight thing (I don't want to get forum banned with any better used analogies), to get through as many hands as possible with minimal variance?
