2 Virgin Poker players will win 37,500 Virgin Atlantic Air Miles, including 2 free nights lodging in Los Angeles, and a meet up with the FTR admins! The package includes free accommodations in Los Angeles, CA for two nights, airfare from Virgina Atlantic from Heathrow Airport, London to the Los Angeles Airport and winners get to party with FTR for 2 nights! Sound good? Here's how:
1) Sign up at Virgin Poker through FTR (you can do so by clicking here).
2) Be one of the first 2 players to cash in over 40 Single Table SNGs
3) Send an e-mail to affiliates@virginpoker.com with your username and you will be notified if you won
That's all! If you are one of the first 2 players to cash in over 40 STTs, you will be awarded the prize package!
You can expect your stay to be one you will remember forever, just ask any of the FTR members who went to Vegas the past few years. On night 1 you will be invited to a private FTR home game, hosted by the forum administrator, Xianti. The admins will be in the game and some other FTR veteran forum members. But even better, you can take all their money! On day 2 you can check out the local LA casinos, visit Hollywood or explore downtown LA. Whatever sounds cool. During the evening, plan on partying like a rock star with FTR radmins.
This promotion is exclusive to FTR and Virgin Poker, and I guarantee you will not find a better opportunity to win a package of this value! All you have to do is grind some SNGs, and a few months later you will be partying in LA with FTR!
Unfortunately, Virgin Poker is on the Boss Media network which does not accept US players. This offer is currently only for people in the Euro areas, as winners of the package must be willing to fly out from the Heathrow airport in London.
Sign up now and prepare yourself, because this contest starts on November 15. Cashes in STTs will not count toward this promo prior to that date, however you can always sign up and practice your skills. Good luck, and looking forward to meet the winners!
Please do not send private messages about this event. Post all questions or comments in this thread.
Terms and Conditions:
This promotion is only open to Virgin Poker players who signed up through FlopTurnRiver.com. The contest starts on November 15, 2008 and will run until the first two players have cashed in over 40 STTs. Once FTR is notified of the winners, they will be announced in the forum. STTs must be a minimum of €5 buy-in, have a minimum of 10 players, and Cooler STTs will not count towards this promotion. Upon being awarded the free air miles, winners will be responsible to pay taxes on their packages, however this amount will be less than $100 total. Winners of the package must be willing to fly out from the Heathrow airport in London. Lodging will be provided at a local hotel for 2 nights, if you wish you stay longer you are responsible for additional hotel costs. Once the packages have been awarded, FTR will contact the winners to plan dates for the trip.

ok, I may get involved in this. sounds good.
slightly worried about lack of traffic at Virgin site. Cashing in 40 games, when you can only play 1 or 2 at time could took a while.
I'll have a proper look tonight when I get back from work.

No doubt. What are the changes of getting something like this set up on a US friendly site?

If you win the air miles are good for life.
The people who win will be contacted to setup when the trip will be scheduled.

since apparently only Slevin and Muzzard can play... as long as slevin can win a sitngo, he's good.
|
The older I get, the more I start wondering; Just what in the hell is going on here?

Server Time I would imagine.
Yes, just cash, you don't have to win.

Congrats!

Yes I'm very pleased it's the biggest thing I've won so far, and I'm really looking forward to meeting the FTR people in LA. Never been to America before.
I'm lucky I found FTR like the same day I found poker and after six months finally I'm getting somewhere =)
Good luck whoever else has a go at the other prize!
