25 point freeroll at 17.00

edited October 2014 in Poker Chat
Why has the 25 point freeroll been changed to a private tourney.?
I liked playing this format using my poker points,and now it seems to be limited what i can use them for.

    it's a locked tourney unless you have a minimum balance of £5 I believe if you have this then it will let you enter

    Cheers scouse.
    The problem i have is i can loose up to £100 per week
    Then the 1st turn i have had in while, i gain a few poker points,Bank my winnings before i loose it all again,lol then bang not allowed entry to the 17.00 & 18.00 freeroll qualifiers for the 20.30 & 21.30 Bounty Hunters.just because i don't have £5 in my account.
    I think Sky is penny pinching m8.
    You used to get a £5 free bet on your birthday,not any more you don't.
    So basically Sky wants to make sure you always have money in your account.

    Looks like this is the way ahead unfortunately.
    As i said in my earlier post it's just pure greed from Sky,these freerolls have been popular for a long time now,and suddenly,it's changed for the worse.
    Just My Opinion.

    Having to have £5 in your account (not exactly an earth shattering amount) is hardly pure greed. It's probably something that should have been implemented a long time ago, so you've had it good for a while. Just a leave a fiver in there, then you can play them all.

    deposit £5 keep the £5 on there so u can play everyday for the 1s that u need £5 balance for simples :)

    The criteria for freerolls changes regularly. Last week you had to amass poker points during the day, this week it's having a minimum balance in the account. Don't sweat, it will probably change again next week.

    Anyway, I don't see how Sky setting criteria on who they can GIVE MONEY AWAY TO is pure greed.
