On a different note I wonder if anybody could help, Tikay most likely. I won a seat into the Aspers leg of the tour in January, however I have double booked myself and will be out the country on Saturday 8th January. What's the protocol on transfering the seat over to somebody else? Thanks in advance for your help.
Dan Trett
The terms clearly state seats are not transferable!!
If i knew that these terms were breakable, I would continue to enter SPT semi-finals in the hope of qwualifying for future legs, especially as I am away for long spells and may miss many qualifying opportunities.
Last year, I qualified for SPT Newcastle, but was called away to work on the rig. I informed Skypoker, that I was unable to attend, and gave up my seat. I was upset about missing the event, but the money didnt bother me.
However, if others are available to transfer seats or pass to friends, then I would like a refund for my seat from last years events that i missed due to work..........Swansea also.
Once again, I totally accept the terms and coinditions, please, I implore you do not backtrack on them
Sorry for the rant/complaint
yes release the seat (like i did last year - without any refund btw) or be blinded down.........
please please please SPT do NOT bend the rules
JAEGERBOMB - Thanks for taking the time to get back to me, although you appear to be very abrupt with me. I obviously didn’t read the terms before posting this and only signed up to Sky Poker so I could play in the Newcastle SPT leg. I sympathise with your situation last year, but it’s ironic how you say in one breath you don’t care about the money then in the same casual manner ask for a refund and furthermore beg them not to accommodate my request. I honestly don’t much care about the seat, it can stay empty for all I care but I just thought I’d see what could be done about the situation. I just thought Sky would rather have the seat filled then have it empty, but never mind.
aussie09 - I won the seat yesterday (Saturday) mate, like I said earlier I obviously wasn’t aware the seats were non transferable or I wouldn’t have posted this in the first place. What you suggesting when you say;
“i would hope that you get your entrance fee returned and the place is freed up for all skypoker players to compete for fairly and openly.”
Only it implies to me that I didn’t win my seat fairly and openly. I’m not here to argue, but felt I had to fight my corner after these abrupt replies. I hope all that have qualified for the Aspers leg have a wonderful time in Newcastle, which I’m sure you will.
Yes, I wasnt bothered about the money, my point is that if others get refunds/transfers then i also want!!
Im sure aussie also isnt abrupt, but we are all treading on egg-shells at the moment.........everyone taking things the wrong way...............its unfortunate you now doubt played so well in qualifying, but come on....you qualified last night (after all the debate over seat transfer) and you are on the NPF , which no doubt discusses the oncoming SPT leg and semi-finals...............i havnt bothered looking......
anyway mate, i dont want any arguement, i just want the rules adhered to and good luck to all your friends from the NPF at both the friday night tourny and Skys event on Saturday.
Take it easy matey
GL at all online/live events
you are on the front foot proclaiming your innocence (ignorance) and dismissing others views here. you claim that you are were unaware of the rules when you entered the spt semifinal on saturday but you are a poster here on this thread, you will/should be fully aware of the rules. furthermore you have also posted on newcastle poker forum adding to the thread specifically dedicated to the newcastle skypoker tour event and after seeing numerous references to the discussions ongoing on this very matter.
now with your most recent posts you have the audacity to say you didn't know as the basis to launch an attack. in summary, you join in the debate on the specific threads throughout the week, then enter the competition on saturday, and on sunday say you didn't know.
this is all amplified as you are now being argumentative in your response and showing a wee bit of paranoia in your understanding. if you re-read the responses you will see that they are fair and balanced.
if i were to choose a solution now it would be "let the buyer beware" or "you made your own bed..." you choose, but re-read everything you might see that your approach here is similar to the Jeffrey Archer court case that led to his perjury trial.
agreement with you on this can I ask you what you think should happen to the seat as it has a value of £110
Mick
Unfortunately, either the seat remains untaken................or is given back the SkyPokerTour in order for other players to qualify........thats what happened with my seat last year Mick.
As a goodwill gesture, I will include you and any others that have to release their seat, in my New Year £200freeroll invitation only (limit 100) (if sky give me go-ahead).
Its unfortunate that things have come to this, but SPT is in a difficult situation and must abide by terms, or risk setting presedents
1. that the spt space should again become open to all skypokers players to play for and should not simply be given to someone of your choosing.
2. that i hoped that you weren't going to lose your entrance fee.
There is so much aggro these days, it's so very sad to see all this.
we spoke at the table last night
to respond to your 1st point
the amount of people who were in that SPT on Thursday last week meant there was 5 seats up for grabs,
yet only four seats have been awarded, all the players who played in that event have been short changed if this were a race and the winner was disqualified for any reason, all the placing would move up.
how ever the SPT played on 25th Nov advertised 5 seats, through no fault of all the other players in that event they have been awarded one seat less even though the money to generate 5 seats has been collected
hi sian, i guess it will be so difficult for sky spt people to find not only the right and fair solution, but also the solution that causes the minimum of unhappiness and upset. but all resolvable if someone invents time travel...
