can't seem to access promotion details etc - I am intrigued about the $2000 for winning STTs though - can anyone shed any light?  Also, does anyone know when we can expect to get all our extra action points following the August promotion?

Win 3 consecutive STT’s in a row and receive a $20 Bonus
Win 4 consecutive STT’s in a row and receive a $200 Bonus
Win 5 consecutive STT’s in a row and receive a $2,000 bonus
Place 1st or 2nd in 5 consecutive STT’s and receive $100

Copied and pasted. Min $1 tables

It says 'normal, speed or turbo' no mention of extended. Perhaps they are not included.  :dontask:

Wait, there's more...

1. In order to qualify for the above bonus’ you must play at 9-seat single tournament tables of $1 or higher. Tables can be Normal, Speed or Turbo.


Payout Structure

1. For claims containing tables with a buy in from and including $1.00 up to and including $5.00 – 25% of the total bonus payout will be applied.
2. For claims containing tables with a buy in of greater than $5.00 and up to and including $15.00 – 50% of the total bonus payout will be applied.
3. For claims containing tables with a buy in of greater than $15.00 - 100% of the total bonus payout will be applied.
4. All tables with a buy in of less than $1 are excluded from this promotion
5. If there is mixtures of table buy in within any prize claim – the lower percentage will be applicable.


There more in the T+Cs but nothing very exciting...

thanks Wardonkey.  Is it just me that can't get to this then?

Aaron, Kev - can you respond to the "Action Points" question please?

I will be perfectly honest and tell you that I havent got a clue about the action points , having only been on board for a couple of days, i know nothing of Augusts promotion details.... but Aaron will help you out when he comes online .

you just can't get the staff these days.....

I could have lied ;)

did you run out of pies and eat all the action points?

All multiplied action points will be paid by the 5th of each month.

thanks Aaron

OK just another silly question about this.  I note that if the tables you have your consecutive wins on are a mixture of buy ins, the lower percentage would apply.  What would happen if, for example, you got the following results:

win $3
win $15
win $15
win $15
win $15
win $15

so, after the 5th win you would get a bonus of £500, because the first result was at a $3.  However, after the sixth result, you would have had 5 wins at the level required for a $2000 bonus.  Does it get reset after the 5th win at any level, or will the sixth consecutive win override the first one at $3.  Hope this makes sense ???

Once you make a claim, the run is over ... you cant keep rolling your results.

Thanks Kev.  I will bear that in mind because I am planning on achieving exactly the results I set out above  :)up  I will ensure I have a loss between the $3 and $15. 

sorry if I'm being thick again but, from what you've said, does that mean that it's a bit like Bullseye and if you don't claim for winning three in a row, then go on to lose a fourth, you don't get anything?

you dont make a claim for 3 until you have lost your 4th ... it would be daft to claim for 3 when you get a free go at 4

OK good.  so in the scenario I posted above, you wouldn't make the claim after the fifth win, you could wait to see if you get the sixth (fifth at $15) then claim for the last five games.

I hope that is clear for anyone who, unlike me, has a cat in hell's chance of getting a bonus!
