By definition, you cannot enter a "Private Freeroll", players in those have pre-qualified, ir it's restricted to certain players who may have won seats, etc.
But there are plenty of open Freerolls on Sky Poker.
I'm not very "up" on info about Freerolls, but "The Shed" Board usually contains Freeroll Info.
Also, in about a week or two, a new version of TKO will begin - that was a series of Freerolls with a Value of nearly £4,000 last time. EVERYONE is free to play in that.
If you frequent the Forum, the Freeroll info is prominently promoted.
hi tikay, is there freeroll on tuesday for the winners of the tko?
Yes, bcool2, there is, a £1,000 Freeroll for the WINNERS of TKO.
There is nothing for the losers, though.
If anyone is a at a loose end on Tuesday, Orford is looking for a game.
Also as I'm at it here is another one. Showdowns. Some sites let you see the showdown in the hand history and some don't. What are the reasons behind Skypokers descsions to allow them?
Cheers Merry Christmas and a happy new year
Some card rooms say that a 2nd raise must be at least the size of the first raise; others that it must be at least the size of the bet, i.e. in your example some card rooms would say that 12p is sufficient for the 2nd raise and some would say that 16p is required. In my experience all online card rooms fall into the former camp. The only common example of the latter rule being enforced (that I know of) is in TV tournaments where "Mad" Marty Wilson is Tournament Director.
2. Only cards that are shown at the time of the showdown are revealed in the hand history. This is in line with other online sites. I can recall one site where all hands were revealed in the Hand History - this was soon changed! All sites that are compatible with tools like Poker Tracker certainly include all revealed hands in the history. If they were revealed at the time what is the point of excluding them from the hand history?
The question by hobbes was interesting, if only because so few players understand exactly how the mechanics of what constitutes a Raise works. MereNovice has explained it perfectly, but I'd enlarge a little.
Let's say the Blinds are 500-1000.
To CALL it is 1,000. If a Player now makes it 4,000, what is his Raise? It is 3,000, NOT 4,000.
And from that, the confusion arises, because the subsequent action has to either match that, or bring in a Raise not less than the previous Raise.
Unfortunately, most B & M Rooms get confused by this, & the Rule is not universally or consistently applied. I would assume all Online Rooms enforce it properly.
Hi cullen,
I'll respond on Tuesday, as I'm going to be Offline for a day or so. I have sent the Question to the Suits though, & I expect a reply by then.
I'm gonna take a short break, & I'll be back Online properly on Tuesday. It's been a bit of a frustrating & disappointing morning, to be honest, but hey-ho. What a moany-woany society we have become! Good grief.
Now, I'm off (via the apparently badly jammed M25 & M1) to Luton, for their £100 Freezeout, time to play some Live Poker & fun poker with a bunch of good friends. And Chompy.
From there, I'm heading home, then play Leg Two of the DTD 20/20 tomorrow, a £100 Freezeout which will attract a huge field. After that, I'll be back Online again.
Hope you all enjoy the next few days as much as I will!
Cheers T1
As far as I am aware, it's tonight (Tuesday). I don't see it in the Lobby at the moment, but unless I'm, mistaken, it'll be in the Lobby later today.
A reminder to others that this Freeroll is for the TKO WINNING TEAM ONLY.
I believe a new version of TKO will be following along right behind this one.
Regards T1
So everyone will be sent an e-Mail very soon & be able to Vote for the Team of their choice.
This is the fairest way, as it gives those who Voted for the losing Team last time the opportunity to address their sins & bad judgement & Vote to join Team tikay next time.
Tks .................... cmon the email ................... btw check out ya team in the fantasy league ......... surley ya NEED to change 1 of ya players (not started a game all season) ........ maybe a few other players short on points too .........
T1
But thank you fopr the nudge, & I do hope your Anfield boys enjoy a revival in the second half of the Season.
I will pick up the unanswered questions later today guys, I'm just back from a few days Offline & I'm inundated with stuff. Bear with me please.
On Sunday morning I cleared a Christmas backlog of Sky Poker PM's - 73 of them - & I replied to them all. I've come in this morning & there are another 46 waiting to be replied to!
Yes, that remains the case as far as I am aware.
Just an innocent simple contentious question from an Orford player. (And don't change my post to awful player - thank you!)
Hope you are well. I ask this because you mistake an innocent question for a backhanded whinge about losing.
The orfordians only won by £20 overall when the Bounty Hunter leg had much more than the £500 cash available in the other legs.
Love
Col
