Hey someone has already won 2 seats 1 Monday and 1 Tuesday. What are the options with multiple seats. Do they still have to be used within a month?

Are you sure Jason?

I got this from Nicola in the week before the October DS
"..With the new set up online it isn’t possible to win 2 seats for the same event as you go into a holding tank and then it won’t let you buy into any feeders."



I'm sure people were playing for second seats in the £500 last week.  They said they were playing for their second bullet, and the system seemed to be letting them play (if they had indeed already won a seat).

Hi Guys

We trialled an online holding tank which only allowed players to win 1 seat per month which cut out the whole issue of duplicates, the reason we did this was players were still claiming seats from 2011 and we were still creating a backlog.

The holding tank worked for us in terms of we had unique runners in the event, however it didn't suit players as they were unable to win a re-entry seat. So we opened it up for players to win 2, each with a 6 week expiry on them which allowed players to use for re-entry if needed or save till the next event if they won them later in the month.

We are currently reviewing the system (again lol) as we are still seeing the same issues as before with players win more seats than they can use. We hope to have a better system in the new year which will be in place for February's event.

Sorry that it's not very straight forward, we are trying to simplify it as much as possible Smiley

Cheers Nicola

Wednesday Tuesday - 2 seats won + €360 for 3th

Is it worth putting the guarantee at 2 seats mabye 3 and see if we can get some more runners.

Hi BorntoBubble

Thanks for your recommendation

We have done plenty of analysis on these early monthly satellites and find that the numbers remain the same regardless of 1-2-3 or 5.

We are really happy with the early stages and will continue to monitor the runners but at the moment 1 seat seams to be doing the trick.

Cheers Nick

DTD (well, a major person in DTD) are one of several blonde constituents who'd like to see Jason post less, Frankie.....

However now his kids are lying in, perhaps we have early morning smashedagain posts to look forward to!

my attempt yesterday stumbled and fell when Vinodh managed to find a call all in with no pair and a gut shot needing a 7 which duly arrived on the turn...

I will be there come what may
