    No, I never found the reason Rose, sorry, but I'll drop them a note.

    Have you asked Customer Care?

    Good luck tonight.

    The first of the weekly Semi Finals is tonight, with FIVE seats Guaranteed into the Final on October 4th. With one seat for every £880 in the Prize Pool, it already looks set to make at least 9 Seats. Think it could end up as 12 or more seats tonight.
     
    These hardy souls will be amongst those playing, good luck to them all......

    Meanwhile, last night was the Punta Cana Super SATurday, & congrats to tismond91 who won his way into the October 4th Final.  
  • edited September 2015
    Well done to tismond91 and tonight is a very scary list of players :S
  • edited September 2015


    A whopping field in last night's Punta Cana semi, with no less than 56 runners, making 11 seats for the October 4th Final.
     
    11 went though to join tismond91, who got in via the Super SATurday thing.
     
    The legs eleven were.....

    In the Final on October 4th, the TOP EIGHT win the Punta Cana package.

    Still plenty of chances to qualify - every weekend there is a Super SAT & a Semi-Final.

    I'm afraid there will be no Super SAT on Saturdays going forward, there was simply nowhere near enough runners.

    I didn't know it was running Dan or would have been in it. Was gutted I missed out.

    Well played to all who got through last night very tough field to negotiate. Good luck all those in the qtrs and semi's

    In all fairness I think the supersat had no publicity at all and most people didn't even realise it was running!!  I know I missed it completely and would have loved to have tried it.

    :'( with laughter here! Still trying to work it out. So do you depart on the 10th or do you depart on the 11th?
  • edited September 2015
     Sleep in hotel on the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and check out on the 10ths - is that or is that not 7 nights hotel sleeps?

    or is it sleep on the beach on the 9th??

    Thanks for that Dan - but maybe the description of the prize should then be amended to say so?   At the moment it states on the details page that the Punta Cana package is for the 3rd to the 10th November.  If people were booking flights it would be natural to expect flights to also be needed for at least those dates - but if the check out is actually the 9th November then anyone who books flights for the 3rd to the 10th would be without a hotel room for the night of the 9th (unless obviously they then shell out for the room which they might not have wanted to spend extra on).

    I have only been so interested in actual dates regarding this by the way as I was "toying" with the idea of spending my roller win on a 7 night holiday for hubby and myself there lol - but on reflection I think I'll just try to win a package instead and then it will be a case of que sera sera...........................

    Not sure Gary, it may depend on how many runners qualify this Sunday. With the 5 (minimum, it could be as many as 8 or 9) that go through from this Sunday, that will mean 34 to 39 in the Final.
     
    I'll ask Upstairs.

    Not trying to goad you into playing, but I guess you should assume this Sunday will be the last unless you hear otherwise in the interim.

    Already in, just wanted to know if it was my last chance

    There are 2 Semi-Finals left - this Sunday and one the following Sunday (4th) just before the Final. 

    We may have to change the time/make Sunday 4th's Semi-Final a turbo structure however as they have been running for almost 3 hours in their current format.

    There will also be some news about other ways to qualify for Punta Cana later today...

    ohhhhhhhhhhh - Sky Dan - I thinkk I love you lol     Can't see me winning seat in the semi this week as Sundays seem to be a washout this month - but looking forward to hearing of other ways to win (as long as it doesn't involve all cash games lol)
