You have been qualifying for this all week and now here we are. Tonight the 8pm Main Event has a whopping £20,000 prizepool and we have more satellites than ever!

There are several routes that you can take today to be a part of this Black Friday special

• £20,000 Directs at 20 past and 10 to the hour
• A total of 30 All in satellites running right throughout the duration of the day
• An Early semi at 3pm guaranteeing 10 seats
• A semi at 6pm guaranteeing 20 seats
• A late reg semi guaranteeing 10 seats

And if you don't manage to win a seat there is always the option of paying just £33 to play for your share of £20k.

Good luck all!

With just 30 minutes to go, & needing close to 700 to cover the Guarantee, this has just 240 entrants so far.

15 minutes to SU&D, & the number of runners is now 335, which, roughly, covers the G'tee. Before it was doubled.

726 now. It'll slow down now. Your number won't be far out, maybe just a touch low if anything.

Yup, 777 now, so just 12 of the 114 valid entries remain in contention, & that includes Mrs MacacSilly who predicted some ridic number.

Curious why this (The Free Entry Comp, not the actual BH) attracted so many entries, some of these struggle to get 30 or 40 entrants. 

Guess we'll do something similar in future.

Seems to be an ongoing theme, up the GTDs for one off tournaments and everyone crawls out to play.

so we'll have a end of the month Pl08 jobbie with ads, sats, forum chat posts soon then?

joking aside, WP sky and keep it up!

good to see the gamble paid off

Late Reg still has a few minute to go, but with 865 currently entered, the Prize Pool looks like this.....


Cash Prize Pool£12975

Heads Prize Pool£12975


Not bad for a Friday evening, can't remember a non-UKOPS weekday MTT on Sky Poker making that much.

Very sorry to hear this, can understand your angst, although 870+ players would swap with you.
 
Can you explain in a bit more detail what you saw happen, please? I'm familiar with most regular complaints & chunters, some of which are known, & tricky to solve "edge cases", but this is not one I've seen or experienced myself, & as far as I am aware, there were no other complaints via Customer Care during the event.

A fine performance all the same, congrats.

Hi C,

Yes, it will clearly be in their thinking, or maybe they are already planning a whole week of Doubled Guarantees? That'd be quite something.

If only someone had started a thread about it, like THIS

More details in a day or two, but it'll consist of daily poker related tasks & challenges, with assorted prizes & Freerolls as prizes.
 
The next UKOPS has been announced, too - please don't tell me you missed that, too?

So that gets us to January, & then the fun really starts......
