I saw this advent calendar challenge but once again this week failed to find time to take part in it. Sounds a straight forward enough challenge but have no time and now it's bedtime. Well done PokerKing on your achievement.....I must find time to play more poker.

it is nice to do a promotion and end up winning money so best of luck in today all-in shootout i think the 1st place prize is like 1000$ today challenge is lame , you get 50% more FPP when you play cash games in certain times hope tomorrow is better

A bit low for a ticket price, but at least there were lots of them, so you have more chances to win a decent amount. That 1$ isnt that decent , but its a win from nothing. Still plenty of time for good promotions. Probably the best ones will be around Xmas.

Don't worry, you have 8 days left in my lottery to win your $1.10
Update, I won nothing with my fabulous 5 wins in 6 for the shootout ticket

Posted by Theapple: well StheP those can be a bit swingy so 3/10 shouldnt come as a surprise to anyone really.
I play spin and go a lot, and I know that 3/10 win on 0.25$ is a suprise... if it was stronger spin I could understand...

Posted by StheP: from 10 spins you got only 3 wins O.o
I didn't play them to win loads of money,i just played them to see what prizes where on offer . I got 9 at 50c and 1 at $1.50 and all i did was go all in with anything higher than a Jack Out of curiosity how many wins out of 10 is acceptable to you anyway ? seeing as you're the resident pro

... < Well they convinced ME to deposit and get 10 of the .25c Spin and Gos for free...! A quick transaction to deposit a few $$$ from my Instadebit to PS and ching....10 tics...
.... < So I played all ten,...took maybe 1/2 hour in total and won MOST of them,...but unfortunately I didn't get a decent spin,...BUT I did win...:
.50c X 6 for $3.00
and
$1 once
...for a grand total of $4 even profit. My $10 became $14 with no effort,...even got a few FPPs I'd imagine... AND a .700 batting average on THAT challenge..
, but its a win from nothing.
