BlondeFish;375671 wroteTo "PokerStars VIP", will there be any hospitality included for satellite winners to the PokerStars Montreal Festival? All the PokerStars qualifiers to the Canada Cup that I talked to were disappointed that there seemed to be no PokerStars representative to welcome them or offer them anything at all. I don't think you'll get 1,000 players to meet the guarantee unless improvements are made from Canada Cup with the $266,000 overlay.
At all the WPT events at Playground, I think lynx5, jontm, T8yourmoney, etc. will agree that we were treated like VIPs. Even the non-qualifiers got T-shirts, card protector, and other stuff to promote the poker site. lynx5 and I can't wait for the return of the Royal Flush Girls, PartyPoker models >:D at WPT Montreal in November, so we'll be grinding the online satellites for that.
Yup WPT Montreal was a treat with free massage's, alcoholic drinks, lounge area, giveaway's, events .
With the amount of amount Pokerstars makes over Party Poker you'd think the treatment would be much better and not far worse.
I heard that PSCC satellite winners got absoutely nothing and thats why I didnt even bother playing for a seat-only .
Hope its different with the Montreal Festival but it sounds like again, seat-only type of deal. so except to pay $1K for hotel+gas+food and get no VIP treatment whatsoever. unless Im wrong?
In which case you can correct me, and I will start playing satellite's immediately.
