$3,000 THP Freeroll at Pacific

[Sid Lambert]

Pacific Poker is giving the users of Texasholdem-poker.com the opportunity to share in $3,000… and it won’t cost you a cent!

On Sunday, January 22 at 20:00 PPT (EST+1) Pacific Poker will host a restricted Freeroll exclusively for new members that download using the following steps. And the best part? Buy-in is free and no deposit is required, so here’s your chance to make some money for nothing!

How do I win?

1.Click here to download the Pacific Poker software.

2.Choose ‘Money Play’ to register your account. No deposit is required!

3.Locate the ‘$3,000 Winter Tournament’ tournament in the ‘Multi Table’ tab at the Lobby, double click on it and then click on ‘Join the Tournament’.

IMPORTANT NOTE : You must register a Pacific Poker account at least 2 hours before tournament start time on the same day.
You can register to the tournament starting January 18th.

In order to qualify for this No Limit Hold'em freeroll, you must use the link above, and you can't already have an account with PacificPoker. We really don't expect many players due to the short notice on this one, so we think you'll probably have a really good chance of placing in the money. Please also note that this will not be a league tournament since only new users can participate. Unlike our other freerolls, you do not have to register anywhere on the TexasHoldem-Poker.com site, but rather you just need to use the link above that goes to PacificPoker.

I'm a new user, downloaded the software using the link, still says "This is a restricted tournament. You are not eligible to register..."

Any clues???

[Sid Lambert]

We're looking into this, apparently you aren't the only one. Sorry for the confusion, I'll keep ya posted.

[cayouche]

Thanks Sid. I emailed support to see what they can do. I wonder if it could be because of any popup blocker...

[Sid Lambert]

i doubt the popup blocker is the problem but i don't know...hopefully we hear back from them soon...

[Ninja]

Wish I could play...trig/pre-calc midterm the next morning though.

I got this back from Pacific Poker yesterday when I asked about it.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and thank you for

I assumed the problem was that I created an account too soon and was classed as an existing member. So I was just going to try and create another one on Saturday closer to the tourney start.

So what is the start time in GMT? Monday 3am (lucky I've booked it off)?

[Ryan231]

I get the same thing.. Freezey managed to join though..

[Muck]

Ignore that, the tourney isn’t open honest.

Nothing to see here people, move along

[Sid Lambert]

one person got in....we talked to Pacific, they said they can't see any problems on their end....i would suggest just trying to make another account and doing it again....the only problem they could think of that people are having is that if you tried to register on the 17th or beforehand, then obviously it wouldnt work...

[Ryan231]

Tried again.. no dice, I'm going to email support and get them to manually add me like Freezey

[wEbMaStEr]

Am i correct in thinking that those of us who already have existing accounts on Pacific cannot play in this tourney?

Can i bitch about that ?

Ah well it's 3 am here anyways, sod it

[Sid Lambert]

Yes, if you already have an account w/ Pacific you won't be allowed to play...

Yes, you can bitch about it...but thats just the way it is...once these things get setup, I think it's nearly impossible to change

[Muck]

Tried again.. no dice, I'm going to email support and get them to manually add me like Freezey

I wasn’t added manually. They said they fixed the problem, I tried again when I got home and it worked.

[scez]

I had the same problem as everybody else, and I tried again and it still did not work. Should I just email them? And what should I say?
