Good Morning All,

We had a great response to the community bounty thread with 31 bounty volunteers for tonight's $250 ADDED Community tournament.

The live draw to determine the four bounties will take place today at 17:00 UK/18:00 CET.

Link to live draw:

Hello Apollo,

My mistake, I am sorry I missed off your alias. Unfortunately, it is now too late to add you because the live draw has been set-up and it won't allow me to amend it. 

I've put a $22 tourney ticket into your account by way of apology for the oversight. 

Please accept my apologies once again and good luck tonight.

The results are in and the four Betfair Poker Community Bounties are:


- JoKeR373x
- Denyy1
- FishinTrips
- DaVinci I


Eliminate them from tonight's community tournament at 20:00 UK time to win yourself a $20 + $2 tournament ticket.

All ticket credits will be completed first thing tomorrow morning.


I actually missed the live draw so any feedback/comments from players that watched it unfold would be most appreciated and any feedback in general.   


Good luck and see you at the tables.

Hi Annie,

This is because quite a few users browse the forum on betting exchange accounts that don't have poker activated, old poker accounts, their partners account etc etc therefore, your forum chat name isn't linked to an active poker account in all cases.

I don't see the problem with giving your alias to be honest?

Unless of course you are some high stakes player I guess who doesn't want to be associated with posting on a Forum.

Would it matter if people knew who you were?

At the end of the day if this is a Community Event surely everyone deserves the right to know who they are playing?

Anyway each to their own I guess and Good Luck if you play tonight annie.
Report annie. September 1, 2010 5:22 PM BST
DaVinci, it is just because, if you read the forums often, you would know I get grief on here and I just do not want it at the tables as well.  If I give my alias it is not just for this one tourney but for all my poker playing. 

In the beginning when I played poker I admitted I was female, but then I got such crude comments that I have not done that again.

Thanks for the good wishes for tonight, davinci. 

I am still unsure whether I will play as I normally play during the day when I am sober and bright.  In the evening I like a drink and I am usually tired as I get up early - both not good for playing poker.  However, the buy in is only $3 so I might play, at that price it does not matter if I crash out early.

annie. I do read the forums, probably more often than I should Blush I don't post regularly though.

You do seem to bring some of the comments on yourself, if you don't mind me saying so Confused the thread on chit chat being a prime example.

Does it matter if you are female? if you get abuse report it as I am sure most people would. Banter is something completely different though.

Anyway enough from me as I don't want to step on any of your suitor's toes Laugh

I hope you play tonight and if you do (Sober or Drunk, I'll probably be in the latter camp Laugh), I am sure you'll do better than me.

Good Luck Love

Apocolypse, first of all I cannot take seriously a reply from someone who cannot even spell his forum name and who has only posted 28 replies in four years.  Are you hiding behind a different name?

I do not love the attention I get being a female, particularly as most of it is abuse, like you.  All I have ever wanted from the forums was to be just accepted as a gambler and poker player, not as a token female.

Good Morning All,


The Betfair Poker community came out in force last night with 88 players taking to the virtual felt for the inaugural $250 Addded Betfair Community Tournament.   

Also in the mix were 4 community bounty players selected via a live online draw.

In 56th place, JoKeR373x was the first bounty player to be eliminated when, on a Jack high board, he found his KJ outkicked by the AJ of RedDolphin2, who went on to finish in 8th place. 

Shortly after that DaVinci I got it all in pre-flop with pocket kings and was called by the AQ suited of pAAtience10. An ace on the flop sent DaVinci I packing in 51st place.


Next to fall was FishinTrips in 42nd place after pypa PKR flopped a set of 8's with J8 in the hole.   


The top bounty player on the night was Denyy1 who finished in 5th place overall after Sjonion2721 spiked a 6 on the river to hit trips to crack Denyy1's pocket 9's. Sjonion2721 went on to finish in 2nd place behind eventual winner Jinzo

All bounty players and ticket winners have now been credited. 

Don't miss the next Betfair community tournament which takes place this Friday at 20:00 UK/21:00 CET where there will be $250 Added once again.
