What's the deal with the double agent prize screen? Its still stuck on last month prizes. I've played on a few DA table and haven't been payed out even though I know I cleared at least a few of the 1st level.

The 100k GTD with Lock Pro Bounties and the 70K GTD High Roller with Lock Pro Bounties will continue to run weekly through January.
I eliminated one of the 'bountied' pros (StevieDevlin) Sunday in the 100k GTD and thought I was going to have to email about the bounty. I was just waiting a few days because I assumed support would have their hands full with all the tournament issues in the past couple days. I was happy to find the bounty was paid out today so I am glad there are no longer issues with those. Thanks.

One thing I did notice is that on the mac software (or maybe it is just for certain users, but I assume it is because I am on a mac), the pros names who do have bounties are not showing up. Above the player list it simply says something like "500$ bounties on the following pros:" and no specific names are listed (that part is cut off). For that reason, I always thought all pros in purple on the player list have bounties on their heads (which I now realize from talking to others is incorrect).

If there is no way of correcting this in the software, could the names of the pros with bounties on their heads be posted here or somewhere on 2+2 before the tourney each sunday please? Thanks.

LOL at now not paying one of their highest volume players the promotions.

What is Lock new promotion that I am seeing on the main webpage which is ISPT Internation Staduim Poker tour anyone has any info on this>
01-09-2013 , 12:44 AM
Says satellite schedule is coming soon (10 million Euro estimated prizepool). They had this last year too, I think on Cake network before Lock took over.

Btw, Shane, when will the Lock Lotto page be updated? The prizes advertised are significantly better than the ones actually being awarded, and it is misleading.

If you click on tournament schedule, then 'tournament course', it looks like tourney starts online for so many days, then finish live (with same ending chip stacks of online period). Interesting concept. I remember hearing about this somewhere else. Satellite buyin look to be 300 euros... Live sessions are right at beginning of WSOP though...

edit: 300 euros is to sat in from the internet (looks like a sat every month). Or players can buy in directly (looks to be 3000 euros for live portion). Might be 6000 though (& sat might be 600)... web site is kind of confusing - cashier and tourney page showing diff numbers.

I was about to show you some examples, but it looks like they have updated the page since I made that post. But it WAS wrong for like TWO MONTHS, just never thought to mention it until few days ago. I definitely wasn't imagining it either, I checked it several times (should've taken a screen capture or something). The lowest tier said it would award like 3K points, but when you looked at the recent prize winners, you could see they were actually only being paid 2K. probably half of the others were wrong, too. I applaud Lock for doing the promo, but it's just downright unethical to advertise one prize and then award something less.

No, you're right. It was wrong on there at least since sometime in November when I got back.

Think last time I saw it run it was over 1000 (maybe even closer to 2k)... This time only 400 reg'd so far, but that might have something to do with fact that it is under the Private tab and not freerolls... Maybe some people can't find it...

Nah, that wouldn't likely be a cause since all you need to do is click on use the ticket. My guess will be it has a jump in enrollment right before it starts or that some people who would normally play are already scheduled to play elsewhere.

Lol, I've been registered for that tournment 2-3 times and I keep forgetting about it so I end up blinding out which probably works out good for the people actually playing in it. I imagine I'm not the only one that does this so the amount of players actually playing should be lower than the number of players registered.

Yeah, saw that in an article on PokerScout, was flabergasted...idiot me can't figure out how to post links though, lol.

Brings a couple things quickly to mind. One, doubt there's any giant "solvency" problems w/Lock as so many post constantly & Two, don't think 'em guys would be willing to wait 4-6 weeks on their $$...ROW or not. Wonder how it will be "proccessed"

Its a single use bonus now so you cant reuse it.

But you can use the code DOUBLEAGENT to get the same 200% upto $4,0000 bonus.

The double agent tables really need a kick in the butt. The old cake network used to have tables just like these and they were a big hit. Not so much on Revolution.
01-17-2013 , 03:12 PM
Before anything else, need to get rid of all the short stackers. Raise the minimum buy in.

Double agent was just a smokescreen for the evisceration of the rake chase promo...
01-17-2013 , 04:16 PM
Are the ISPT super sats only going to run sunday? or will they start running during the week like the Irish open ones were/ are? Thanks for any additional info on this promotion...
01-19-2013 , 02:25 PM
I know it is a bit early shane but, are there plans for a reload bonus in Feb.?

Would like to know before using the last available code this month, thanks.
