Title: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth. SPAM ALERT Post by: tikay on September 01, 2011, 11:23:21 AM The daily Jackpot on SkyPoker.com has been boosted to £7,000, PLUS an i-Pad, tonight, for ONE NIGHT ONLY. If not won, it returns to a mere £6,200 tomorrow. I reckon that if someone scooped it tonight, they'd be the fat end of £12,000 to the good. MBN. Tonight's Guest on the 8pm - Midnight Live Show, alongside Sarah Champion (ooooh) & myself, will be Lord Spam himself, Barry Carter, of pokernews.com. The Super Jackpot details are here, any questions please fire away. http://bit.ly/iCrIWN Title: Re: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth.

Didn't I see someone won one and finalled another, a while back? Title: Re: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth.

Ooh, proper subtle, Rich, I'll volley that one in. Seeing as you ask, though, yeah, I believe 5 players have Finalled in both the specified Tourneys on the same night so far, the best effort being a 2nd & a 3rd. And any questions for Barry Carter on tonight's Show, please e-Mail in to "skyopen@bskyb.com". Please try to avoid lewd comments about Miss Champion. Or me.

Not so subtle a question, that. Title: Re: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth. SPAM ALERT Post by: AndrewT on September 01, 2011, 12:51:07 PM How many people actually enter both tourneys on the same night?
Title: Re: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth. SPAM ALERT Post by: tikay on September 01, 2011, 02:07:11 PM How many people actually enter both tourneys on the same night? It varies according to buy-in, Andrew. I don't have the "how many play both Tourneys" number to hand, but of course, the idea is to increase that number. Obv. On average, I guess, the nightly ME gets about 300 runners, (can be as low as 250, or as high as 450), & the Mini-Main (starts 15 mins later) around 10% or 20% more than the Main. The "play both" number, as I said, I don't have to hand. In the 11 weeks it has been running, 5 or 6 players have "double-Finalled", but nobody has won it yet. Mathematically, it should go (on average) once every 15 months or so. If it does not go for 15 months, it will stand at about £11,000, as it increases by £100 per week.

Unfortunately, due to some personal issues, Barry will not be on tonight's Show, but he will be on Ch 865 again in the near future. Title: Re: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth.

Title: Re: Crackpot Jackpot + Barry Carter gives forth. SPAM ALERT Post by: tikay on September 01, 2011, 07:38:22 PM Whats the buy ins for both? Varies from night to night. Tonight, the 8pm Main is £33, & the 8.15pm Mini Main is £3.30. Both will get around 400 runners. |
