I've got a few thousand and have won $5. I've seen people with 20,00o that have won nothing

It's a lottery or raffle of sorts. You only need one ticket to win. After that you're just improving your odds but not necessarily by a whole lot. Same old same old, rich get richer and the poor stay poor. There's a cool lyric about that in a U2 song but I'm too sick to remember which song.

Was hiding out in forums and doing other stuff cuz I hate playing sick. I get all extra-stupid. Still, I've been playing sporadically, and even playing sporadically and extra-stupid I'm getting tickets. Man that's why I normally love PLO8. Even playing stupid I can win at one table and break even at the other to keep my head above water and out of the red. But now I'm getting tickets to boot. Even at the bottom, tickets woot!

Did those giving the minimum we can win a piece of also factor in the interest accrued while we wait for November? That might be a given but I'm fuzzy-brained at the moment(which means I'm even dumber than usual).

I'm just glad Leo Margets isn't at the final table(selfish but true). I mean she's such a good representative for women in poker + looks like a childhood idol of mine(Jennifer Beals) which is a weird reason to like her, but oh well. But if she were still in I'd totally be rooting for her.

Sorry for the randomness.

Im confused

They dont make the drawings and stuff like that apparant... or maybe im too baked.... but it should be more clear cut as to what the tickets and how many you need of them will work.

I think I'll have better luck at the 7-11 with a scratch off.

This promo is nothing compared to the Take 2 promo in which we all were pretty much guaranteed $50 just for logging on and playing half and hour for 25 days.

But that is comparatively speaking.

This promo is better than no promo (or even the weak-ass party poker promos).

I wish they would have live coverage of the Final Table... I don't care if its going to be hours upon hours of folding, it lets you go a lot deeper into each player's abilities, tells, what not. Instead of showing the highlights.

They should make it one ticket, one percent, then I would be rich by now.

I only have about 1,000 tickets so far, nothing won of course.

I'd rather have them run a promo where you win $ when your overpair runs into sets. I'd be killing that one.

There's some guy that has won 18 out of 20 draws. Guess he puts in a huge volume of SNG's.

I finally got my first tickets yesterday. 70 of them, don't really know why unless they were for the $250k tournament.

Haven't noticed any upgrade in my account cash today though.
