Poker Forum

My account with Party Poker is a Pokernews affiliate account. I earnt over 50 Party Points in May, before 7th May. I should therefore be qualified for the freeroll tomorrow night. I am not able to register!

I have emailed freerolls@pokernews.com but have not received a reply.

Is there anything else I can do to get what I have earnt and what I should legitimately have?

I used to play all the Pokernews games, but gave up because I missed too many freeroll seats that I had earnt, through no fault of my own. After playing the raked hands required and earning money for Pokernews, it was too frustrating when I was then unable to play the games I was qualified for. These Party Poker games are the first Pokernews games I've tried in ages and it seems the same as all the others that drove me away from Pokernews in the first place.

Sorry to say it, but they don't work weekends. Unfortunately, I can't do a thing for you.

Why are games scheduled for weekends when people arent available to organise them?

It seems they go wrong more often than they go right. Surely they should be scheduled at a time when people are around to fix the problems?

Thanks anyway Dave. I appreciate your response and know it's not down to you.

Is this down to Pokernews or Party Poker? Can I get anywhere by contacting Party Poker directly?

Probably not but you can give it a shot.

What a load of bollocks! I'm in the samne boat as T4xim4n. I went into work early today in order to finish earlier so i could play in this tournament. I got back in time for the dumb 1 hour registration period and...sorry but you're not able to register for this tournament.

I downloaded partypoker through the pokernews referal page. I was happy because it was one of the big sites i hadnt already regsitered on.

I then spent the next few days grinding 4 tables in order to get 50 points before the deadline last Thursday. Done

So i'd then expect i will be able to play, as soon as i wasnt able to i was on the phone to a half deaf person on Party, before being refered here. I'm seriously not happy, a 1/38 chance to get a seat. Unreal.

Could someone check if we were legible and if so, can we get some form of compensation?

I was able to play. Party sorted me out in the end.

I think Pokernews really need to look at the way they deal with these freerolls. The problems happen with alarming regularity.

Glad it worked out for you, T4xim4n.

@t4xim4n and notbrook i know that pn is doing there utmost best in this freerolss. but unf. sometimes things go wrong. The only advantage is that the will learn from the "mistakes"

In this freeroll i went out as 61 after my finish 2nd last week were there was only 1 package.
Very dissapointed.

I heared on the dutch site that the 2nd place finisher (dutch guy) already had won a package for the wsop.

Nickname, didnt win again? sad...

@rasucci well there are still plenty wsop freerolls from pn
I will make it. (i hope)

You have to, after all your hard work
