Cheers good luck, have fun at the pokersites this one of the best sites out there with one of the best bonuses and you are missing out if you do not have a poker accoutns there, all the people I know have one account there. everybody does but some do not play there. Well have fun guys!
I had look after it and the only sat which structure is preferable by me is the $20+2 FO so if they dont hold some affiliate toureys to win tickets (like last time to the 3rd anniv. SS - there was a shitton of them) I definitely wouldn't participate...

I like these promos - because if you're in it anyway then the chance of winning money for being sat at a table is pretty damn good and enticing for anything who hasn't made their mind up.

Wow, who would have thought that there could have possibly been 900 million tournaments played. This is just one site, so the tournaments played online must be in the billions, insane or what!!
Only 900 million? 900 million is an insanely big number!
Do some calculations and you will see, that during the 13 years since Pokerstars was founded, there were on average almost 190000 tournaments/day. (which sounds weird, but I think my calculations were correct)

900 Million is a huge number and justifies a huge promotion from a major player in the poker business........ Just imagine though what will happen when it gets to 1000 Million and what PS will roll out for that occasion! Make sure you're there!
With all these promotions on Stars i have never heard of them losing money on a tournament a money making machine with profits in the millions buy in is too high for me GL too any mobsters participating in this tourney

They have a lot of tourney promos in the last years, but no good cash bonusses. Ok the torney series like Scoop etc. are fair and for every poker budget, but it needs a long time to qualify for a main event via sat. And in combination with the massive suckouts it was boring to play there...
