Question regarding Poker Points
I have a load of Poker Points in my account from before the site offered the 'Points for Cash' bonus.
If I were to use these points for the community freeroll, for instance, would they be deducted from that section of my points or would they be deducted from the points I ahve gained this month.
Basically could playing the the community FR affect my bonus coming on Augsut 2nd lol
Thx.

points for cash works on the basis of how many points you earn on Sky Poker. so freeroll away -this wont affect your bonus in anyway

Glad I found out differently.
Yer, i thought this too!
"When will my bonus be paid?
Your bonus amount will be paid on the 2nd business day following the calendar month end and is calculated based on the total number of poker points earned in the previous calendar month (July), as shown in the table above. You will automatically be paid the highest possible cash bonus based on the poker points you have earned, the points exchanged will also be removed from your account.

Hi all,
Rich has asked me to try to clarify this up as it seems to have created quite a bit of confusion.
The cash for points work on the basis that whatever poker points you earn during the calendar month go toward the points for cash bonus. It is not based on how many points you have kept.
To try and clarify this a bit more, here are some scenarios that will (hopefully) give you a better idea of this promotion.
If you have 1000 points in your account but do not earn any points during July then no points go toward this promotion and no points are deducted from your points balance.
If you have 1000 points in your account but do not earn enough points during July then no points go toward this promotion and no points are deducted from your points balance. So if you earned 300 points then your total points should become 1300 points.
If you have 1000 points in your account and earn 500 points during July, thus giving you a total of 1500 points then only 500 points go toward the promotion and only 500 points are deducted from your total points tally. Leaving you with 1000 points and a £5 bonus.
If you have 1000 points in your account and earn 500 points during July, thus giving you a total of 1500 points, BUT you use 500 points on freerolls, then 500 points are taken toward the promotion, 500 points are used on freerolls which ultimately leaves you with 500 points remaining in your account.
So basically your points are always deducted from your main points total. But only points earned go toward the promotion.
One final scenario. You have 1000 points and you earn 500 giving you a total of 1500 points. But you use ALL your points in freerolls leaving you with no points in your account. You then still receive your £5 bonus for earning 500 points but of course no points are deducted. We will not give you a negative points value.
I hope this clarifies it all but if you need any assistance then please contact our support team for a full explanation.
