Title: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done". Post by: tikay on February 27, 2011, 08:06:41 PM That will be the basis of one, maybe two, 'phone calls tomrrow morning. Sky Poker's monthly Viva Las Vegas Final takes place at 9pm tonight, & with 1 in 10 getting the £10,000 package, & so far, there are 9 runners. So it may make TWO x £10k packages. If it only makes 19, there will be £9,000 "left over", which will be spread 50%-30%-20% between 2nd, 3rd, & 4th. Here's the 19 at 8pm....... andrew1947 5000 bazbazbaz 5000 bromley04 5000 cottlad 5000 CoxyLboro 5000 ctbn 5000 dantb10 5000 ElRupert 5000 hinton 5000 hurst05 5000 jackl 5000 karlluke 5000 LIAM5KING 5000 Nutter5932 5000 rosjim1 5000 seaford2 5000 simuk 5000 Soulcrush 5000 terrell08 5000 Title: Re: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done".

Title: Re: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done". Post by: tikay on February 27, 2011, 08:12:59 PM A handful of blondes in there, such as cotty, & a few who are on both sites, such as Nutter5932, & DanTB10. ElRupert is well known as a blonde, & been playing some decent high-value cash volume on Sky Poker, helping to support the Sky-blonde Sponsorship deal. It starts at 9pm, & will be covered on Channel 865, where James Hartigan & Ed Giddins will be joined in the Studio by UKIPT winner Jamie Burland. The Sky Poker Vegas crew fly out on the 3rd of July, & the players wll be booked on the Virgin Flight from Gatwick 1 or 2 days later. See you at McCarron?

Title: Re: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done". Post by: tikay on February 27, 2011, 08:26:51 PM Soul gonna crush. Not a bad shout, Chris. He won't be far off. SIMUK & CoxyLboro can play, too, we know DanTB has the game, & Nutter simply kills the Heads-Up's next door. LIAM5King is, I think, the son of Sue Norsden, aka "kidgirlgy", who won her £10k VLV package on Sky Poker last year, & finished about 300th in the WSOP ME for about $37,00. Karlluke is Tina, a long-term Sky Poker favourite, she plays live in Southend & elsewhere, & Hurst05 is a kid who is amongst the most promising youngsters on Sky Poker, lives in Sheffield. "Jack L" is a new name to me, may have paid in direct. Lots of potential fairytale stories there, too, such as RosJim, & andrew1947. The Monday morning after a Vegas final is a fun time to have my job, the 'phone call is really quite something. Title: Re: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done".

Can you give a quick rundown how the prize is broken up? Title: Re: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done". Post by: celtic on February 27, 2011, 08:32:43 PM Why do you phone people to tell them they have qualified? Surely they know if they have qualified or not?
Can you phone me tomorrow and pretend I won? Title: Re: "OK, you have won a £10,000 Vegas Package, well done". Post by: tikay on February 27, 2011, 08:34:32 PM What is the buyin Tikay? Can you give a quick rundown how the prize is broken up? £1,100, Keith. One x £10,000 package for every TEN runners. The "left over" money - if any - is paid 50%, 30%, & 20% to the next three "seat bubbles". If the 20 players remain regged, & no more join, it will just be the 2 Packages. There are, however, quite often 2 or 3 late registrations. If you are seriously interested, & need more details, ring me. It starts in 25 minutes.

We need their Passport details, "special requirements", who they plan to take as their Guest (it includes two flight tickets), & whether they want a smoking or no-smoking Suite at The Rio, that sort of stuff. We often invite them onto 865, & generally look after them, too. Sicilian tried to bink a package, but I don't see his name on that list......

It's EXACTLY £10,000, no more, no less, the money left over after flights, Suite & Seat is paid as cash, & generally, they get between £1,000 & £1,500 "left over" as spending money.
