DAY 10
Happened to drop in on a very relaxed table with a few short stacks doing a lot of limping, probably trying to see the 30 flops as cheaply as possible, so not wanting to upset anyone I joined in the limping. 😇 The result was seeing 30 flops in 45 minutes from 66 hands, an impressive strike rate, and after being ahead most of the game I gave some back on flops 29 and 30, 🥴 resulting in a profit of €0.26. 👍

The mission for Wednesday only says "Reach flops at any Omaha stake" to me. How many? Just two since it is not emphazized anything other than plural? 🙂
I'll take 30, the usual suspect.

Hi @Phil. D and welcome to the community.
I'm afraid this one crops up regularly and unless you specifically wade through all the t&c's you won't be aware, it catches many punters out (including me) and is one I regularly comment on. Special offers negate the effect of the UniBoost cancelling it out in this case an extra place paid, denoted by the little box on the race card,
or when special price boosts are denoted for one or more horses in a particular race, with small B in the race info.
Personally I think it's bad that these negations aren't made very clear on the racing pages but are tucked away in the t&c's.
I see you took a UniBoost and were given a price of 5/1 which means the price at the time you made the bet would be 9/2. This indeed would pay out £38 rather than the £40 expected. I hope this answers your query and good luck in your punting. 🍀

DAY 7
One table at a time, €1, great start, 2nd hand. I raised and it went all-in, all-in, all-in. 👍
It didn't go quite as well after that, I won the first two but then lost 3 in a row before finishing. Forty nine minutes, 160 hands, 3W 3L profit of €1.50. 🙂
Fun Factor 6/10. It feels like a huge difference between €0.20 Extremes and €1 Hexas, quite a bit tighter and a lot more wiggle room with 25 BB's than 5. 😀

We can definitely do a €5 weekly tournament as well. Will look at it next week, so feel free to add ideas in the meantime 🙂
To be honest I'd make it a private tourney somehow. I've played the centroll for 43 minutes, terrific added value from 112 entries and 28 rebuys, €1.40 entry fees paying out €123 in prize money. 👍 Monetary value HUGE, added value to the community as a whole, I'm not seeing it.

Ten minutes to go, 76 entries and a massive 9 likes or thanks for setting it up.

DAY 5
An hour and 11 minutes, 3 tabling, 302 hands, €12.96 to the good. 🥳

Fun Factor: 9/10. Only so high because of the winnings, there were 155 players at one stage and most seemed willing to get involved and donate. 😀

The other two pages are the same too.
I asked for ideas how to encourage more participation, not confirmation of how tight fisted and scrooge like the community is, 🤬 we already knew that the freerollers are in the-huge-majority. 🥴

You mean the friend tournament? At least that was one that we tried but maybe it was too complicated...perhaps if tourny it set up straight to lobby, without asking first who will play, people will join...or not. Up to Stubbe if he dares to gamble with fear of possible overlay 😄
I did mean the friends. Surely no guarantee is needed, set the tourney up and the prize pool is whatever it is, the more the merrier but if there are only 6 entrants the so be it.
42 minutes ago, Livertool said:Yup. Hence i think only community aspect of this centroll will be that people check out the pw and then disappear. If lucky, maybe some winner will return to say thank you but that is about it as past has shown. Setting up free/centrolls to get more people to join as active member to community is quite ineffective and it also spoils big part of fun for actual members so maybe other route could be to offer present active members something special and when newbies come in here to check out how they could get in they become more active with fear of missing out in future too.
I totally agree. To continue with the community League figures, 168 entrants in total, less than half -80- with a community name eligible for leaderboard prizes, 🤔 about half-40- with recognisable names and about half again-20-regular or part time contributors. The cent rolls are fantastic in principle (who doesn't like a "cheap" tourney?) but simply don't make any difference to the standard of blogs or threads or discussions, and most times in the past there weren't even any chat rooms open for a bit of banter, goading, bragging, whining or whatever, simply giving away money to many who will never contribute. So how do we encourage more participation? Ideas welcome.

Don't know if others community fellas are interested but i could play 5€ tourny too with similar pp so chances would be better to actually play against community peeps and not million value hunters?
I mean as addition to that centroll, not to replace it...something to trial too?
Didn't we try that when Covid hit, I seem to remember there were two of us that actually tried to start a game when they became popular but there was very little take up. I've said it a few times but I really think 95% of this community and discord are only here for whatever they can get out of it rather than what they can put in. The numbers playing the community league (168) far outstrip the number contributing, posts, discussions, general chat, a quick glance down the names leads to a lot of "who he?" which really does sadden me, and I'm guessing the centroll will probably attract many players that you've never even heard of, even if they used their community name rather than a random alias. I don't know what the answer is really, restricting entries to contributors say for that week would probably only lead to masses of short spams, but I'm willing to try whatever to keep this community alive. Even the current Anniversary Missions and Let's talk 10-year Anniversary seem way too quiet for such a big event. Put me down for a slot if you can get any more takers, I'll stream it and see if we can get a bit more enthusiasm going.
As I write Stubbe's opening post has 7 likes or thanks( all regulars or at least part timers) this thread has 2 replies (both regulars 😬)including mine, and the Weekly Community Centroll has 23 entries. Says a lot really. 😕
