RTR $10k freeroll - Sunday 1/21/07

[PopFreak]

I'm playing in this freeroll and the total prize pool in the tournament lobby is only $50, anyone know why this would be?
Thanks,
Pop

Probably so RTR can allocate the prize pool differently than a standard ABS payout structure...

Thanks Sniper

Unfortunately it's merely a clerical error on AP's part.

An email was sent to all players as soon as we found out letting them know all the following details and that as usual we would take care of it all in due course.

The payout should be $10,000 for 54 places.

We have contacted AP, who will address the issue tomorrow and Tuesday when they are back in the office.

We have asked them to make the payments manually according to a standard payout tournament for 54 places.

Kind regards

Subject: Absolute Tourney Payout structure !

Thank you to all of you who so kindly pointed out the tournament only has a payout of $50

Please forgive us if we don't respond personally to all!

This is simply an accidental error by Absolute

Of course the tournament is for $10,000 and should pay the first 54 places.

We will sort this out with AP as soon as possible (i.e. tomorrow Monday) and ask them to make all payments manually according to a standard payout structure for 54 places. That may take a day or so to organise.

If you do finish in the first 54 please do not send us an email asking us about your payment! As you know we at RakeTheRake never let you down and so we will get it sorted out!

Apologies for the inconvenience!

Kind regards

Jessica

Cool, TY RTR...

I finished in 51st or 53rd cant remember now, anyone know the payout for that place?
Thanks,
Pop

[RakeTheRake]

Based on their $100k tourney which also paid 54 places...

We estimate (dont hold us to it!!) about $35

Kind Regards
