edited January 2013 in Poker Chat
Hi all,

You should all now be aware of our CASH CHAMP promotion running throughout January.

If not all the details are here.

This is the OFFICIAL RESULTS thread! We will be updating this page daily with leaders for each tier (Lower/Middle/Upper) every day so make sure you check back to see how you are getting on.

The first table will be published here on TUESDAY 15th JANUARY.

Good luck everyone!

    first of all this is the first ive seen this promo about and im usually on top of most thngs.

    2nd, the link to the pro mo page. the promo page has a bit at the bottom showing how you earn poker points. it is showing how many points you earn per 20 raked hands. now im not sure if this is a mistake since its now weighted contribution or you are reverting back to old system for the purposes of this promo. can you clarify?

    Lower tier 1st places wins £500, or the equivalent of 50 buy-ins.
    Upper tier 1st place wins £875, or the equivalent of 8.75 buy-ins.

    #seemslegit

    Novembers' King of Cash promo had a superior, balanced pay-out structure imo, and seeing as you're trying to incentivise people to play as much and as high as possible (with more rake being generated the higher up you go), it seems like a bizarre decision made by someone who probably doesn't really understand why the structure is flawed.

    If it's not broke, don't fix it. Previous payouts in November were really good, not to mention I don't think it's particularly fair to announce this promo 1/3 of the way through the month.

    Not trying to hate on what is already a great promo, just sayin'.

    Good afternoon.

    There appears to be a little confusion here, & I think that is because, perhaps, a word or two has been omitted from the OP.

    It said.....

    ".....running throughout January......"

    And I think it SHOULD have said....

    "....running throughout the rest of January....."

    Those 3 words make all the difference, it seems!

    As far as I am aware, it only started today.
     
    Good luck to those who get involved.

    If you DO intend to get involved, don't forget you need to opt in, see.....

    1Enter promo code CHAMP in My Account before midnight on 27th January.
    2. Earn poker points from cash games between 14th & 27th Jan 2013. Check the leader board on a regular basis, it will be updated once a day.
    3. Bonuses will be paid to eligible customers by 28th Jan You can only opt in to the promotion at any time, but all your play from the 14th-27th Jan will count towards the promotion.

    I think actually it was this bit "You should all now be aware of our CASH CHAMP promotion" like a lot of others it seems, I only first saw this about 20 minutes before it as posted on here on Facebook. It was worded as if it's been advertised for weeks.

    Anyway, doesn't matter, people know about it now.

    Fair point Charles, & apologies.

    Anyway, they are even more aware now after this thread went a bit skew-wiff. ;)

    Now, as this man famously said, you may continue......

    Is it just me that can't find the promo page? The links on this thread just bring up a "Page Not Found" thingymibob, too.
  • edited January 2013
    yes Mr loner same page not found, however after several seconds of digging 

  • edited January 2013
    Why would you tell anyone in advance?


    it's not like that would ever be a good idea. 



    are we going to be told about that promotion that ran 5 years ago that we're just now hearing about????!?!?




  • edited January 2013
    The page is probs being amended because it was incorrect ) Showed raked hands not weighted contribution

    I knew about this promo last month !!!

    to fix all these links you need to realise the competition is called cash champ.



    replace the cash dash section of the link with cash champ and it works properly.

    Thank you Scouse_red.


    The promo page does still show a points per raked hands chart. It would be nice if that was updated and there's a similar chart still posted on the Happy Hour promo page which could do with the same treatment.

    Thank you Borin (& others),

    I have sent the thread up to Suit-City so they can clarify where necessary.

    Apologies again for any confusion. The wrong sort of snow on the line today.....

    agree the payout for lower stakes tier compared to the higher stakes tier is laughable

    A GOOD PROMO THOUGH!

    See if i can win myself a few pennys
  • edited January 2013
    Just seen the cash champ promotion on the site their now and i noticed that 50nl is classed as being in the upper tier surely this must be a mistake and it should be in the middle tier. I finished 8th i think it was in the last kings of cash promotion in October playing 50nl and it was classed as the middle tier back then.  

    This puts the 50nl players at a big disadvantage as they wont be able to compete with the likes of style etc on top of the pots every week etc.  So a 50nl player will actually earn less through this promotion than someone playing at the lower stakes.  Eg i could play 50nl and min cash around the 40th mark for £17 or i could play 5p-10p finish 1st and win £500.

    Ahhh - now I understand why every nl10 table I sat at last night was joined by a load of solid (ie better than me) regs / was already full of aforementioned regs.

    Given their presence at the lower games, I'm not torn whether to join this and try for the low end of the leaderboard - or see it as a two week window to take my shot at NL20 while most of the better players are absent... decisions decisions.

    GL to all those gunning for the top spots, very nice bonus for lower stakes players!

    My name's in third... Testament to my laggy, spewy session last night. lol

    I will relish the moment I was ahead of TINTIN in a rake race. I wasn't even planning to have much of a go at this.

    This really needs clarifying immediately. If you're right then I really can't be bothered with this promotion but Tikay's post on the other page implies that this may not be correct.

    I'd like to believe that the promo page is wrong. I think it probably is, to be fair, because my C4P's went up in line with weighted contribution, not the per 20 raked hands system.
