    Hey

    Just a quick question. Who has taken part in the Betfair poker tournament, I'm interested in giving it a go, as its £1 to enter but you get £5 back so even if i come last ill still be quids in.

    - How experienced are most of the players, would you say there were lots of novices or everyone seemed pro lol
    - How many other players were there?
    - How long did the tournament last?
    - If you won, how much did you get? I saw the returns %'s but someone else who won got more that what was advertised.

    Thanks for your help,

    Matt

    Edna, it's Jules's NOT Jules' :p

    AFAIK both are correct. For singular names ending in s, you can use both 's or just an apostophe. Charles' or Charles's, Thomas' or Thomas's; all are correct.

    (Personally, I use 's, as it does seem more logical.)

    (I can't believe I'm actually interrupting my holiday to log on and post this. Most people would probably think it's very sad :o , but I'll miss Droopsnout, who, I'm sure, would not. :hello: )

    I played in it on Weds evening for my first time and it is worth it just for the points even if u don't win.

    On wednesday there were 84 players, I came 57th, but i'm not good at bluffing ! Some pro's some not so take your chance, its worth it just for the fun of the game if you like it. Not sure how many points u win but believe it is broken into top 3 places. I was playing for about 20 mins when lost.

    Good luck and hope this helps. next tournament Sunday I believe.
    :hello: Laugh and smile everyday, it keeps you healthy ! :wave:
    Thanks for everybodies help on here, what a great community !

    If theres 180 people thats 18,000 points spent

    If you win you get 50% of that ( 9000 ) which is £90 in rewards

    I got £89 when i won my first ever tournament ( lasted about 3 hours)

    Good luck ;)

    I logged in with my usual password, updated 'my categories of interest' and clicked on the 'home' page. Did this about 4 times but kept getting returned to the 'sign in' page. What's going on? :(

    EDIT
    Ok have gone into Pigsback via IE instead of my usual Firefox and now all's well...
