Virgin Atlantic Freeroll

[AvonGirl]

Noticed this in the lobby on Virgin, private tournament for members of Virgin Atlantic Flying Club. So logged into my account and went looking for details. I'm not clear whether it should only be for new Virgin poker accounts, but looking at who is already registered, there's plenty of familiar names, so I'm in. I think the new account restriction may only refer to those applying for the RH bonus.

You'll need to log into your Flying account and find the offer to get the password.

PLAY VIRGIN POKER FOR YOUR SHARE OF 500,000 FLYING CLUB MILES

[Valiant23]

Thank you AVONGIRL!

[AvonGirl]

But have you ever seen me and GaF in the same room together?

[Samba_SamPa]

Cheers GaF.... just kidding thanks AvonGirl


One point though, this will be same night as PL Poker League on PokerKings, so I know I can't, assume a few wouldn't be able to, do both. This Virgin Atlantic offer is really good, but I am going ok in the poker league! Argh!!

[JulioArca]

Im my defence I had just got in from a night out and was checking Laddies for the billionth hand!
Drink had been taken at this point !
Sorry AvonGirl

[philossify]

I'm in - I'd forgotten I had a Flying club id - and (if I was psycic - speling?) I would have been shoving my vpoints in there rather than taking them as cash if I'd known I was going to Vegas.

Thank you Helen

[gazza]

Cheers GaF I'm in

A lot of the T&C seem to apply more to the 5000 miles offered than to the freeroll

Condition 6, which specifically states it's for the tournament says:

6. Only Virgin Atlantic Flying Club members are eligible to play in the tournament.

Or is that wishful thinking?

[jolly67]

nice one AvonGirl im in.

[Samba_SamPa]

Thanks again AvonGirl, just received confirmation email that I qualify for the 5000 miles, and they will be deposited to my Flying Club account within 14 days

[AvonGirl]

We're down to 20 and there's 7 PL that I can see in the 'miles'. Including AA Hall, fenner, Burnley Joe and dpPL, all in the top 5.

[GotaFancy?]

500,000 Air Miles = £5,000 = $10,000 ?? (Ok - I know air miles aren't V Points - but if we work on the valuation 1 air mile = 1 VPoint = 1p)

Good luck PL'rs

[fenner]

out 10th for 12000 3 pl still in

[fenner]
