$60K German Special Shootout

I asked the PS support about the shootout and this was their reply:

Not great news but at least it's not gone forever - yet.

yea , they told me it would be off for the next 2 weeks..because there is no Sunday Million Tournament during that time..(really, that was their answer)

Since my assumptions weren't entirely wrong, I didn't even bother to contact support, but it's nice to have such hard-working colleagues here, thanks for the information

That sounds pretty good and quite understandable.

I remain optimistic for the New Year!

IT IS BACK...

 

[GERSteven]

Yes, that went quicker than expected, great

It's also great that it's now being played out on Saturdays, so at least there's no overlap with the SM late registration and so on.

Haha my anticipation was too early. Now it's running on Sundays again and there are only 30k tickets left. We have to change the title of this post

Ouch!

But they did not change the name of the tournament yet 🤪

Does anyone dare to ask them for a reason to cut the price in half...

For the moneyyyyz

 

[Silversurfer99]

For the moneyyyyz

yea i guessed it..but i thought it`s a bit greedy to cut it in half..they could have lowered ..but this seems offending..maybe the boss needed some new tires for his lamborghini..🤷‍♂️

Quick question to the fellow German residents:
I always register but then rarely go online for the shootout. I requested my hand histories but looks like I did not play the game on 5th February.

Did it run? If so, I haven't grasped why they sometimes unregister me. I did not play at another site during this time... 🤬

 

[GERSteven]

I can't say whether it took place but I was registered and didn't get any money refunded but didn't win anything either so I think it was played out.

I'm almost never online when it's running and so far it's always worked, I hope so

I never trust them and request my hands on Monday. 🤓

Then I saw my last PS hand was on 28th January and not in the shootout last Sunday.

 

[GERSteven]

Ok, that's a bit strange, so trust is good, control is better.

 

[Andyreas]

I don't know what PS is doing:
Last week I was unregistered again while not playing anywhere else.

So this Sunday, I made sure to be online at start time:
Around 5 mins before the start of the shootout, the amount of players when down from over 2k to 900 which caused the tournament to be postponed by 10 mins.

It started with around 1.6k players and 1.4k prize ranks, so only necessary to win one hand but my 92o wasn't good for anything. 🤣

So guys and girls, looks like we have to go online at PS for the shootout now!

 

[Andyreas]

Aaaand I missed another one because I forgot about the DST change in the US. 😪

 

[GERSteven]

It looks like you have to be online all the time now otherwise you will be logged out. At least that's been the case for me for the last 2 weeks.

Yeah, thankfully they added it into the description by now:


After a dry period, I had another good run yesterday and won another $109 SM ticket.

Another win in HU and it would be a $215 for the anniversary SM. I'd definitely have loved that but ofc taking the 109 one too. 🤪

I was logged in in yesterday 15 min before 19:00, but it started already at 18:00 . damned DST difference

Yeah, I made the same mistake last week. 😵

 

[GERSteven]

Yes, unfortunately I missed it again but finally there was information about the cancellation.

What a crazy new tournament every sunday for Germans. This is not poker, you can't do anything instead going all in. You play only HU and start with 0,1BB allin. It is easy to win tickets, but it is pure luck.
I was registered but haven't been in Germany last weekend, so I couldn't play. Now I found a $5 ticket in my account which I won by doing nothing...

So rejoice dude, others only dream about this.
