MARCH PROMOTIONS - Page 6 - Two Plus Two

Shane I have 4 questions about the WSOP promo ,and I'm sure a lot of people have these questions and would like to know the answer soon so they can decide if they want to try and go for this promo.

1. How much is the seat worth for the WSOP?
The prizes are up on the site now: http://lockpoker.eu/promos/grind-for-glory/leaderboard/

2. Will lock pro's be eligible for the WSOP promo?
No the LockPROs do not qualify.

3. Will coin flip sit and go's still count for the promo?
Everything that generates rake counts so yes.

4. If we win a package can we decide to take cash value for the package and if so how much is the cash value of the package?
There is no cash value, prizes only.[/QUOTE]

whats the difference between prize levels and grind table levels, because the prize levels the first few are already all gone, but the grind table levels are still available

I am under 21 so am unable to play live in the US. If I try to rake heaps for this promo does that mean I won't get anything from the package? Am I able to give the package to someone else?

Because he was receiving over 100% rakeback.

Luckily Lock is making it so you have to play so that should cut down on a lot of the flip shenanigans.

Love the change and the muted prizes at top. Makes flipping a lot less EV so maybe others will have a shot at them

Last month prize was 10k so flipping was much more EV. With top prize of 5k + expenses and much lower for 2nd-5th it's becomes a lot less EV to flip. If all 5 prizes were 10k you'd see at least 5 guys flipping and generating 20-30k in rake to win. That's what I'm talking about.

Yeah also some people don't want to pay for travel and a hotel for a $1500 event. How will we receive this prize? Do we have to go to Vegas the day of the event and meet a rep by the cage to buy us in? Basically what I'm asking will we be able to sell this prize to someone that can make it out to the WSOP?

Well I think your referring to one of their pros that plays a lot of 2/4 and above and he likes to start a ton of happy hour tables when its not even close to happy hour. I'm not sure if he dose this to be a dick to the other regs or he is instructed to do it by the site since he can't get rake chase money. So if you see tables 2/4 and above started that aren't grind for glory tables it was probably started by one of their pros. Also either way lock should tell him to stop since its totally misleading to a new player that sees a pro playing a happy hour they must think it has to be happy hour right now.

Shane, how long will the lock n load deposit bonus be good for? I'd like to use it at some point, but not while I'm still clearing another bonus.

I'm pretty sure lock reduced the amt of grind tables for ring games. There were like 22 1-2 games running yest, granted its re-segregated, and none of them were grind. I think now its like 1 per 6 max 1 per fr only per stake, pretty grimy. I mean its really meaningless but if your running a promotion your running a promotion.

yea i didnt realize fence was down. thats much better than gaining some extra grind table rake so im fine with it.

if the fence is down and this is the regular tiny amount of 2/4 and 3/6, i is sad =(

Till the 31st of May.

Also redepositing or withdrawing dont affect existing bonuses, our system allows you to stack bonuses so you can have multiple bonuses in your account you just clear them one at a time.

mccormick when you have dinner with the lock pros ask them whats the deal with them grinding flips. really confused how its anything other than taking advantage of the system/their pro status.
