I could care less about the stupid million hand thing, especially since I'm not even eligilble to win anything.

With the way cash game players get screwed by the VIP thing, I think you should be able to live with not getting the best of this promotion.

how do cash-game players get screwed in VIP points?

The rake-back equivilent is actually better on some cash-game stakes.

I'm not complaining about not being eligible -- I think that decision is fair for sng/tournament players. What I am complaining about is that I can't disable the announcements, and they cover my cards for several seconds, often at in-opportuine times (is that a word?), sometimes forcing me to check instead of bet because I can't tell what all the cards are before time runs out.

I agree.

These announcements that COVER THE FREAKING CARDS when you are trying to figure out what's happening are really quite annoying.

I'm multi-tabling 4-6 tables and get the announcement on every one of them. The timer is ticking away waiting for me to act on 3 of those tables perhaps. And I'm sitting there trying to read the cards between the damn announcement on the table.

Even just a pop-up box (preferrably one that doesn't disable the action on the tables until you click it like some sites do) would be better than covering the board-cards on every one of my tables while my timer is still ticking away.

I can't cash in on this promo either - I've been 9-tabling all week long and all I get is those stupid yellow pop ups - I've not hit anything. Of course, the more yellow pop ups that include me out, the more annoyed I become. I do hate lottery type promos.
