Bit of fun for a Euro 12 sweat.
Freerolls (50 Poker Points) tonight, AND tomorrow.
The TOP 16 in EACH of these Freerolls all get a Team in Euro 12 based on finishing position. Winner gets Spain (FIFA ranked # 1), runner-up gets Germany, (FIFA ranked # 2) etc.
You then get a £5 Free Bet with SkyBet for EVERY Goal your Team Score
Details are HERE
Don't forget to read the Terms & Conditions, too.
PS - If you want England, you need to finish 5th in either Freeroll. Or if you want to avoid them, don't finish 5th.....

Hi G,
It is open for registration now, & over 300 have registered so far.
If it is opened too early, some folks forget to plqy it, & then we get complaints about "sit-outs".
Or maybe they were just late opening it, I don't know.
Good luck.
Mr. Kendall, there is one flaw in this particular tournament.
The new Fifa world rankings were published today and some of them have changed:
1. Spain 2. Uruguay 3. Germany 4. Netherlands 5. Brazil 6. England 7. Argentina 8. Croatia 9. Denmark 10. Portugal 11. Chile 12. Italy 13. Russia 14. France 15. Greece 16. Ivory Coast 17. Sweden 18. Republic of Ireland 19. Mexico 20. Colombia
So the order in which the places are rewarded are now out of sync with the rankings. Never mind, eh?
Then I had this......
I will have a word with upstairs. I would THINK that they will stick with the Ranking "as published" on the Promo Page, as it clearly says this.....
"....Here are the rankings that will be used..."
And the Freerolls begun last night, so it would be (in my personal opiinion) wrong to change it now, when people have already "won" Teams.
Might just send a Meno to FIFA & tell them how inconvenient all this is.
Will confirm the position later.
It would be wrong to move the goalposts (whoops...) now, after Teams have already beeen "won" by players, so it stays as per the Promo Page.
Thanks for raising the question. Nothing is ever straightforward, is it?
On the one hand, our tendancy to make 'passion', 'commitment' & 'being good in the air' as highly prized values rightly puts us light years behind most countries in terms of the most important footballing virtues of skill, technique and team co-ordination / fluidity.
On the other, we are one of the hardest teams to beat & no-one enjoys playing us. If you look @ our results in competitive games since Eriksson took over, we are easily one of the top 8 teams in the world.

But yeah - on the whole, we still play rubbish football.
Tikay does it have to be £5 on sky bet for each goal or can it go into my poker account?
If, by some chance, you don't feel able to take advantage of the prize of a free £5 bet for every Goal your team scores, my personal advice would be to swerve the Freeroll.
I'm sure I can find a few bets to make.
