Hello,

At first let us assure you that our software doesn't come bundled with any kind of adware or spyware. From time to time all antivirus/antispyware programs are known to make mistakes and generate so called "false positives" - i.e. to label a perfectly harmless programs as adware or malware threat. We've already contacted NOD32 software provider for removal our software from their blacklist and they have removed the adware detection, but they still classify our software as "potentially unwanted program".

The "potentially unwanted program" detection can be turned of from the NOD32 antivirus configuration and you should advise player to do so, meanwhile we are communicating with the antivirus provider to remove our software detection completely.

Should you have any questions or additional information on the request, please contact Tech Support. Please be so kind to include the request number issued to you.

Best regards,

Ok got it an installed/setup account

I understand there site sponsors an all but so far im not impressed with the poker program.

Tried to join a freeroll tournament $50 beginner
when i went to register it said 20 people had registered so far.
clicked register an it changed colour an was no longer able to register.
So i thought i might be in but strange i got no confirmation.
Got confirmation straight away for queen of ppoker tourny
30mins later i get a message saying sorry this tournament is full.
Why on earth did it take so long to try an register me for that $50 freeroll

Then tried to play some practice games on the play money tables, there all full gotta join long waiting lists, then when u finally join a table theres guys on there with huge chip stacks like 15,000 compared to our starting 1,000 so they just put every one all in before the flop not much fun.

Will stick to pokerstars for when i want poker
 
Free money tables I have joined the largest stack so far is $9,000 and he got that after I joined. Waiting list is a couple of minutes on many tables - don't be fooled by a waiting list of 20+ people. You can also join first available at your chosen blind level. Check the average pot before joining - if it is 10k don't join :) Try joining smaller blind tables at first. There won't be anyone with $15k on a 2/4 blind table :D

My table is Cuneo, right now. Highest stack is now $7k.
 
you'll notice a huge difference between playing for "play money" and playing for "real money". even the very small games ($0.05/0.10) are taken much more seriously than the play money ones. my advice - deposit $20 and jump onto the small cash games and then you'll be able to play proper poker. there is also some good tournys like $0.50 or $1 entry which have nice fields as well.

I downloaded the software and when i go to open the file which is a EFW file nothing happens???

Does anyone know what the problem could be?

This is the same in any poker site that I've found. Lots of random play in play money games.

EFW file? No that's not right. I'll PM you a direct link.

Hi,

This is quite normal considering the high volume of players all trying to register at the same time.

There are thousands of players all trying to register and it causes slowness in the system with all the registrations.

Please try it and you will see for yourself.

It can be frustrating but its best to be ready a few minutes before the Tournament Registration starts.

E.g: If the Registration starts at 03:00, then be ready at 02:58 and click on the Register button often at least 1 minute before it is even available.

Then, there is more chance that you will get into the freeroll.
 
Just sent out an email to the remainder of the list - there is a player limit of 2,000 anyway.

Some people may have gotten extra emails. The system I am using seems not to like it when you schedule an email to go out and then delete it.
 
Seconded. I get home from training around 8:30.
In future Tuesday or Wednesday is more likely for tournaments or league games.

I cannot say that any of the future ones will have this much guaranteed prize money or how many players we'll get. We might get bigger prize pools, they might be smaller. I can't say with any certainty.

At the moment this is probably your best chance at a big prize pool given it is early days and the player numbers will only grow.
 
I was going to wait until tomorrow but I have opened it site-wide now.

That way everyone has a chance to get sorted and nobody is disappointed or gets mad at me because they missed out :)

See the OP of this thread for all the details.
 
7:30pm is too early for me but I'm just going to have to suck it up and enter anyway - I don't want to miss the inaugural BF Poker tourney.

A bit later next time maybe?
