PPP Tourney For Boards

karlh

yeah multitabling with the stars game would be handy. may also increase attendace to both.

i'd say not advertising for the first one and see how it goes might be best. i know you guys are just looking to make the most from the reg but from boards alone i'd say we could get 4/5 tables once it gets going properly.

thanks 'boss.

Hey Karl actually no (to the maximising registrations). What I want to do is set up a tourney for you guys. Maybe once we develop it a bit I can set up a league for it too? Invitationals are in progress so as soon as it is available I will make it boards only and password protected too. So are we agreeable....
Sunday Evening (starting Sunday 15th May) Boards.ie MTT $35 Freezeout 15 Minute Rounds 20:30BST (8:30pm our time) ?? advertising courtesy of boards members :0)

Why do you all want 15 minute blinds? How about 30 minute blinds with 5000+ starting chips, also like the idea of a sattelite to a WSOP event.

Other ideas that might make me play on PPP.
1 Netteller, yes they just closed my account for no apparent reason but still the best way for transferring money online

2 Get rid of that bloody 3 day wait

3 Allowing money transfers between players would be good

Other than the fact that I cant stand the Tribeca software I wont play PPP for these reasons, theres just so much choice out there I dont need to play on an inferior site

I think everyone is suggesting 15 mins because that's the max that it goes on PPP/VC, I've never any higher although I could be wrong.

If you want to withdraw money they freeze your money for three days before giving it to you

NOt quite. Any profit you make on a given table is "held money" ie you take $200 to a table, leave with $300 then $100 is held money. Now you still have $100 more in your account and can use it in any way you like except to withdraw.

You have to wait 72 hours from any given profit making session to withdraw that profit, everything else you had in the first place is withdrawable as normal right then.

It's annoying but I don't think they have a choice really. I don't know where they're listed (London, Dublin, IoM all three?) but wherever it is you can be sure they need to be seen to be doing something about money laundering and fraud. It's just too easy to clean money through a poker site.

Yes quite let me clarify. Profits arising from poker are held for 72 hours. these funds are however available for you to continue playing poker with for the duration. Only this money goes to held funding. A "chron" job is run based on the funding entering held funds and thusly releases afer 72 hours. There is no delay or held funding on standard withdrawel whatsoever. Poker is a player to player game and therefore laundering and fraud must be guarded against. I know it is a bit of a pain in the backside. But we are less stringent than some.
