gruven 530 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I tripped across this.... Betfair is running a promotion called the million dollar giveaway, or something to that effect. Basic premise, they are having a million dollar game at the WSOP Europe with 18 seats. Canada is getting one seat. In order to qualify, you have to get to the Canadian final. The way to do that is to win a weekly final. In order to do THAT you have to win a nightly freeroll. In England, five or six hundred players are playing every night to get to the weekly final. In Canada, they are getting less than 20, which means you AUTOMATICALLY get to the weekly final. Even I can win when it's automatic, lol... Worse case scenario, you win one of the weekly finals, you get a free trip to Toronto to play in the Canadian final. Best case scenario, you get to fly to England for a one in 18 chance at a million bucks. This is a wicked opportunity for us Canadians (sorry yankees!), since you can qualify without playing a hand. And, before you start chirping about spam, I debated sharing this info, and Zach convinced me it was okay, so if the 11th best hold em player in the world thinks its a good opportunity, then...... LOL The info on how to sign up and play is here.... http://poker.betfair.com/promotions/item/i...778424381710517 Post if you qualify... it would be wicked if an FCP'er repped Canada in this...

Or does it mean log in once a day for the last 7 days then before 11 am UK time on the day of?I think it just stops you from signing up for the free roll the same day. If you signed up the day before, you should be good to go the next day. Link to post Share on other sites

gruven 530 Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 This is back up and running again..... i think there are five more seats!! go to betfair poker and sign up, then find the million dollar game freeroll for Canada. Betfair is running a promotion called the million dollar giveaway, or something to that effect. Basic premise, they are having a million dollar game at the WSOP Europe with 18 seats. Canada is getting one seat. In order to qualify, you have to get to the Canadian final. The way to do that is to win a weekly final. In order to do THAT you have to win a nightly freeroll. In England, five or six hundred players are playing every night to get to the weekly final. In Canada, they are getting less than 20, which means you AUTOMATICALLY get to the weekly final. Even I can win when it's automatic, lol...Worse case scenario, you win one of the weekly finals, you get a free trip to Toronto to play in the Canadian final. Best case scenario, you get to fly to England for a one in 18 chance at a million bucks.This is a wicked opportunity for us Canadians (sorry yankees!), since you can qualify without playing a hand. And, before you start chirping about spam, I debated sharing this info, and Zach convinced me it was okay, so if the 11th best hold em player in the world thinks its a good opportunity, then......
