    Default VIVA Las Rakeback

    Ok thought I would get this up and running for this promotion maybe I have jumped the gun but neway here we go

    1. Full Tilt? I cant speak for everyone however I would imagine a good amount of players are going to be screaming they are not part of this promotion I am for one.

    2. Anyone interested in creating a team? if you need a sixth let me know I am looking for a team

    Good Luck to everyone in this promo

    Better fire up UB I guess.

    1. Unfortunately Full Tilt does not care much about affiliate marketing, and a promotion like this would be hard to set up with them. The current partners of the Viva Las Vegas promotion are all going to share the cost of you guys playing and partying in Las Vegas, so a big thank you to Absolute Poker, Betfair, Paradise Poker, and UB.
    2. I'd suggest talking to some of your real life friends who play poker, to get the most fun out of the trip with a bunch of friends in Vegas.

    Not being critical of the promotion sounds great happy to boot up UB for change just dont like the contributed side.

    Dont have to many ppl I know who play online but the offer is there if anyone would like to take it up

    Thanks for the response

    Hey guys,

    Unfortunately this wasn't a UB problem - we had huge issues with our emailer and we couldnt get the invites out to players in time. As of 10 mins before the start, there were only 17 registered players out of 300+ qualifiers so we felt it only fair to cancel it to allow all players to participate.

    We told UB to pull the plug and we will most likely set it up for next Sunday at the same time.

    An email will go out to all affected players in the next 24 hours with more details.

    Once again - apologies.

    So that means you wish UB had screwed up instead of you?

    For one, I'm glad RB rescheduled as it wouldn't be fair to those players who never got notified. I mean, come on... $5k up for grabs among 8-17 people when over 300 qualified but weren't able to know about the promotion. It doesn't seem fair. Now if RB just gains that extra $5k it won't be fair, but if this specific tournament gets rescheduled and later promotions aren't affected, it should be pretty fair.

    I just wish it was another day. Unfortunately softball season has started back! Of course, I wouldn't call me competition anyways!
