It says in the tourney description/lobby that the bonuses are being processed within 48 hours. Reading is fun.

If I remember correctly, those are entered by hand. Just be patient. If you're planing on dying within 48 hours, your children will benefit.

HI
just wondering when the sunday bonuses will be payed as i came 13th and received no bonus .. ty

wait. did you receive the prize money, and you're waiting on the bonus? the bonus must be cleared. Goto to cashier and press the "Check My Bonus Status" -- it should show up there..

I luckboxed my way to second and really enjoyed the experience of trying to hit 4 cards instead of two.

The "Check my bonus status" still hasn't appeared. I'm happy to wait if it just needs more time but after the 48 hours hope I haven't been over looked by human error.

Thanks for all your great work and for Stars. Keep it up!!

OK -- let's give it a little bit longer, since they for are added manually. Please post again if they don't show up in another 24 hours or so. I imagine the holiday weekend / SCOOP might have left people a little busy.

hi
to receive the $50 bonus for the sunday game u have to put $50 in ps and accumilate
10x the amount in fpp's ?

You just need to accumulate 10x the base FPPs. So for $50, you need to clear 500 points.

hi
ok tyvm johnny

I won the $50 bonus last sunday, so I need to collect 350 fpp by july, but the problem is that I'm already collecting fpp's for another bonus (and I'm still 400 fpp short for that one) , but the deadline for that is in september

So I was wondering if there's a way to start collecting fpp's for the bonus that will expire in july, because right now I'm playing and I'm only collecting for the september's bonus, and if there's a way to accelerate the fpp collecting like by transfering the fpp's I have in my account directly in the fpp's I need to unlock the bonuses.

AFAIK, all stars bonuses have to be cleared in order, so there is likely not much that can done be in terms of 'juggling' them.

Ultimately, you can try support@pokerstars.com -- they'll have the most accurate information and get back to you very quickly. stars.

If I might make a suggestion, there are a few easy/fast ways to earn FPPs instead of long hours grinding micro stakes:

Double or Nothings - They start at 1.15/1.10. Each one will give you 1 FPP. Because they're fairly straightforward play wise. (Tight/Bubble play) you should be able to easily play 6-8 at a time. To break even you'll need 57/100 for 1.15s, and 55/100 for 1.10s (turbos).

Regarding the structure of the Pokercast invitational.....

Is there anyway, to the powers that be, you guys would consider changing
the format in order for skills to be rewarded over pure chance/luck.....

Perhaps we could move the time between each blind to 15mins versus 5mins.

I would like to believe that most people like me who actually listen to the
podcast are trying to improve their game... to become winning poker players.
So a tournment based on skills vs "lotto poker" would be more appealing.

Just a thought...
thanks,
Jordan

I agree that the structure is fairly aggressive, but a major factor is the sheer number of runners it's been attracting. An 8 hour free roll isn't that fun for most.

Fairly soon, a pokercast league will be starting on stars, the discussion is here:

It'll probably be more inline with what you're looking for.

lol

FYI: Asking for the time of the password during the podcast is only marginally better than asking for the password itself. (Read: Don't do it).

Sometimes the invitational tournament is NL and sometimes Omaha, and sometimes something else.

Is there a set schedule or rotation in place or is it randomly decided each week?

Other than listening to the Pokercast, is there someplace in this forum that shows the type of tournament (Omaha, NL, etc.) for the upcoming Sunday?

I think last tourney each month is HORSE.
This upcoming tourney is HORSE.
Here's the tourney ID: 157870646

getting PMed now, sick

I've taken care of it.

Note: If anyone else is receiving these, please let me know.

Sounds great to me it's going to be No limit Holdem xD

i actually like limit tournies

I cannot find the Pokerstars invitational for Pokercast listeners this week under tounaments private. Can anyone help me?

Uncheck all the filters and check 1 hour before tourney starts?

What time does the tournament start CET?

If I recall, it starts at 14:55 (PS clock), however, I can't see it yet either.

Shouldn't the entry be in the list by now?
