I'm guessing that there will be plenty of APATers entering these tournaments.

Let us know your plans and railing needs, and let's get plenty of APATers in the money.

[Waz1892]

Qualifed for the $65000, GSOP ticket qualifier (0.01 buy in 124 players top 10 win) Took me about 6 attempts  )

And tonight just picked up a $50+$4 ticket - ($8 buy in 70 players top 9 win)  So I'll play in event 15 in the mini series. 

[PHIL_TC]

Yip.. I'm in for the $65000, GSOP ticket qualifier just won my seat.. like Waz.. it took a "few" goes today

[samuel_9]

Did you get in? Its a crazy game isnt it? After trying a few I decided that sitting out for 15 mins was the best option.. and then getting lucky as hell 

[linziwan]

Well Richard and I have both won tickets for the $65,000 event. Richard already entered with his tournament ticket and when I won last night you can guess the problem we have......

we are from the same network and it won't let me enter the same event with the ticket grrrr.....  have emailed Betfair customer services and hoping (fingers crossed) for a speedy reply. I think Betfair are shooting themselves in the foot with the same network problem - lots of households have two, or more, poker players using their home network, its not like we are using the same computer. All the good will for Betfair holding this event... starts to get tarnished when you then have problems trying to enter the event you qualified for  .

[AJDUK]

Yep it's pants. The big networks do something similar for sit n goes but not for MTT's. Come on Betfair sort it out. Of course they may not have a choice if it's an Ongame policy. And it will be viewed as a minor problem of course. Still you can always sit back and relish all that added value, whilst not playing poker.

393rd, made the GSOP mini Event 8 for $22.  Not bad for a 0.01c. 

Furnesspoker still in and going well in 94th/343

[PHIL_TC]

Nice one Waz.. and furness

Not great for me my flopped two pair all in didnt end up well by the river.. still good fun for 0.01 though

[Chipaccrual]

Furness is now 7/100, so guaranteed a $200 GSOP Event 8 seat, but a $5k GSOP Grand Slam Final seat would be nice for a top 5 finish.


Good Luck.

[EnglandBart]

Furn-tastic.

How did you end up Paul?

Best regards,


Bart

[Chipaccrual]

Paul finished 45th, narrowly missing out on a $525 Seat, but a $200 seat is not bad work.

Well played sir.
