In case anyone is interested. WH is running a lotto every night at 9pm, thru 28 May. (You don't have to be present to win, but you must claim your winnings within 24 hours of the drawing).

They pick 3 balls out of a single machine which are numbered 1 thru 10. So if my math is correct, it is 10x9x8, which is 720 to 1 odds to be in correct order, but since order does not matter you divide by 6 which is a respectable 120 to 1. $5million kw is split among the winners each drawing. I think the average has been about 7 winners. (You can play up to a max of 12 tkts each night, which would lower your odds to just 10-1)

You pick your own numbers at the kiosk using your players card. The number of tickets you get to choose is based on how much mileage you earned the previous day. 2k gets you 1 tkt, 5k get you 3 tkts, 10k gets you 5 etc, 80k+ gets you 12 tickets)

A player the other day threw away his ticket where he played 123, 124, and 125. He said that after the first number was drawn which wasn't a 1, he crunched it up and trashed it, not realizing that the order didn't matter. It reminded me of the movie Dumb and Dumber where Jim Carrey listens to the radio and hears all 6 of his lotto numbers being drawn, but throws it away because they weren't picked in the exact order of his ticket, lol.

Back to poker....

A deepstack Trny (buyin not listed, but I'm pretty sure it will be 165k) is scheduled for this Saturday, and a 10mil GTD Trny is scheduled for the following Sat, May 28th (220k buyin).

Just read on their webpage that this Saturday's trny is a 110k buyin. Kinda small buyin imo, but hopefully this will entice more people to try poker tournaments out.

I was wondering what's the best way to withdraw money from pokerstars? This is my first time withdrawing so I probably need some step by step. I deposited through neteller.
Thanks in advance.

They just added an event on their FB page:

Saturday, June 18 at 2:00 PM
₩330,000 buyin and if we get 30 players we will add 1 more seat worth ₩3,000,000

It would be great if they hit 30 to give us 4 seats.

I'm missing how it was before .... The Friday Night Freerolls (was worth at least 440k, so that was 1.76-2.2M each month), the free 500k bounty they had in each Bounty Trny (for knocking out Mr. Song) and the 1M GTD Sunday Trnys. As far as I know there hasn't been anything special (to "give" back) to the players, but I know we just have to be happy that the trnys are at least running again on Saturdays.

I do enjoy the food from outside the casino they bring in, but in the Kevin Song era we always had that. Lately, I'm hooked on the dinner buffet. Even nongamblers come in and grab a plate since it doesn't require a ticket, .

Does anyone know how long it takes to receive your Neteller MasterCard? Or has anyone ordered one?
I called their Customer Service and they told me 45 business days...
Thanks in advance.

30 days by UK Royal Mail.

What you can do is cancel the card. Contact customer service and get a new card to be expedited.

It is expensive though. 89 pounds.

I had mine expedited, and received within 4 days by DHL.

You only can expedite if you call them before u make one.

Spurredon,

Congrats on winning your APPT ME seat online! And for winning $5k in a $5 spin-n-go! Good luck to you man!

I had to do a double take on your sharkscope graph as it looks like a straight up rocket launch, I hope it continues!
