Does this mean you get the buyin back when you lose if you play raked hands?

Nice one

Have added to the diary - Post 1 says it starts at 16:00 GMT - so I've put down 17:00 BST - is that right? (I dont have the software, so cannot check...)

[dobbin]

it starts at 7pm uk time.
It takes about 2-3 days to get your $5 back if you dont make the money.I have been playing this for a few months .no more than 60 each week.

[GotaFancy?]

It's the new Prima software that they are rolling out - found the Rabbit cam yet?

1st Place Win For $300...Great Value Tournament

[robsterling]

Anyone know if the Nothing To Lose is still running? Came 2nd in this a couple of weeks ago really good value tourney for the 75ish or so runners I think couldn't see it on the lobby today?

Cheers, Rob

[step1]

they have scrapped it in favour of a new fr every second Saturday in the month in which the more RHs you have acquired the greater the number of chips you receive. value not nearly as good I fear.

[robsterling]

Don't know if this has been mentioned before but the Nothing To Lose tourneys are back next month. Had this in an email from Purple Lounge:

The Return of 'Nothing to Lose'
	We are bringing back our popular Nothing To Lose tournament on Sundays during the month of March. For those who are unaware of the concept, the top ten finishers get paid as in a normal tournament, but all those outside the top ten get their entry fee back!

These used to be really good value tourneys, hopefully they still will be.

[chatoman]

Yes, the nothing to lose is back.... BUT, is not as it used to be. They had a prizepool of U$1000 guaranteed, and now its just the buyins.

Anyhow, is like a freeroll, only 50c to play

Regards

[robsterling]

Oh yeah, hadn't noticed that, that changes things a lot. Was good value and worthwhile prize money before with the 75 or so runners but now would need a hell of a lot more players and no added value anyway.

Cheers for pointing that out
