I was told that there was a printing error!

Pure speculation on my part I reckon its that there are maybe 200 spaces for new accounts and the other spaces are for sattelites aetc. I just cant imagine they have 2000 1050 dollar freeroll seats .

Or maybe I think some one cockedup intheir office and meant to offer say $105 sattelite seats to the final 1050 buck event.

Though Everest does offer good sign up bonuses normally I believe, I'd nearly signed up with them before to get some free books + bonus

Hopefully they'll still honour those who have already signed up or their name will be mud. even 200K is probably small change to them compared to the bad publicity if they didn'thonour the current sign ups.

I am absolutely mortified by this, I've just cancelled my subscription and cashed my deposit out of of Everest Poker and deleted the software.

(I may just be exaggerating and overreacting a little though)

So what does that statement mean? They still going to honour entry for the people already in?

Obviously I am not privy to any inside information but IMHO i think the entries already entered will stand...... suspend rather than abandon was the key I think.

I wonder if a pattern is emerging here.

Hi Jon

I will seek clarification on that point for you.

I am of the belief that anyone registered will still be eligible to play, but I need to confirm that.

Cheers
Alun

Hello all.

I'm very sorry about the way this has ended up. If you haven't clicked the link please do as it explains the situation.

The good news is anyone who is already registered will be fine and will be eligible to play.

Cheers
Alun

p.s. Ed - I will take a scoop of vanilla ice cream with my humble pie. Thanks.

Looks like it has paid off for everyone who stayed up then, but this doesn't detract form those that will be bitterly disappointed.

(Glad I'm a bit of a nightowl)
