Hey guys,

I've just won a £1,100 tournament ticket for a live event from a satellite on 888 poker. I've never won a satellite that has lead to a live event before and was just wondering how it works? Do I just turn up and announce my name? Can I give my ticket to someone else? Do I have to somehow prove it is my account when I get there? I haven't received any information from 888 about it so was wondering if any of you knew the drill.

Cheers

Don't make a mistake - ask Support.

What did 888 say when you asked them?

So they sent me over details but I am having trouble transferring the ticket to another player. I'm not sure if I am going to be able to attend and support said the event ticket is non transferable.

Before the tourney I wasn't 100% I could attend the date specified so checked the terms and conditions link prior to the tournament starting, which was broken. I then found these pages saying tickets were transferable between players (no. 4) and thought nothing more of it:

https://www.888poker.com/poker-tourn...ocal/terms.htm

https://www.888poker.com/poker-tourn...-local/faq.htm

I have explained this in a link and am awaiting a reply. These convinced me the tournament ticket was transferable? I have since realised that these pages refer to 888 'live local' whatever that is, so I don't know whether that is any different to 888 'live' which I played in? Which would seem pretty unfair since the terms and conditions page on 888 live was broken.

If anyone has experience dealing with these things I could really use your help. Clearly the terms are quite misleading if they have outdated pages still out there. If I nag and just be a complete pest is there any way of them caving? I was also thinking, would there be any hope in ringing the casino it is being hosted at (who I know take the rake for the tournament and I presume therefore are the organisers) and asking them? Anyone have any other suggestions.

Thanks!!
