Tonights Highest finishing PL Loser will win €275 WSOP SuperSat seat

[GotaFancy?]

Tomorrow (Wednesday) sees the first Monthly Virgin WSOP Final. Buy in is €250+€25. "Your chance to win a €8500 package to the WSOP plus every winner gets a €2000 BONUS from Virgin!! One Package Guaranteed." Just 17 entrants so far, likely to be a huge overlay.

Tonight is the final sat, at 20:30 GMT, with a buy in of €25+€2.50 (with one seat guaranteed). The highest PL'r not to win a seat will be awarded a seat to tomorrows final, worth €250+€25.

If you wish to be considered for this excellent prize, then please vote your inclusion in this thread - the poll will be closed at (or shortly after) 20:30 GMT - once the poll is closed, it is closed - no "hours grace" as with BPP.

Please also be aware - other forums are probably running this as well. You can only play for the seat from one forum. You may not chose after (or during) the event which forums seat you want to play for. You may only play for one forums seat. By voting in this poll for inclusion in the PL seat, you exclude yourself from being eligible for other forums seats (and vice versia - if you indicate on other forums that you are playing for their seat, you are not eligible to play for the PL seat)

For clarity too: "loser" as referred to in the title includes everyone who doesn't win a seat to tomorrows final.

We're just finalising some details, and as such, you should expect this post to be edited up to the start - if you are playing, please make sure you reread this thread from 20:30 GMT if you wish to be sure of all the "small print" (nothing too dramatic - just want to cover what happens in a few specific scenarios)

Thanks to Virgin for this excellent opportunity. Good luck everyone

Ok - I haven't managed to get ahold of Joe, so I'm going to add some rules to this that I believe will add some clarity for us, but also protect the interests (and spirit) of the promotion for Virgin. By playing your the PL seat, you are indicating your acceptance of these additional PL specific rules....
1) Players may not win cash prizes on top of the seat - that would mean you win more for bubbling than qualifying directly. If you win a cash prize and qualify for the seat, then you take the seat instead of the cash prize. All cash prizes will be "bumped down" one place for PL'rs.
2) If you win a seat tonight for tomorrows final, it is non redemable for cash or tournament credits. This promo is being run to increase participation tomorrow, if you cash your seats in, it would defeat the purpose of the promo (and be against the spirit of what we have been offered)

Nice one mate
