I am trying to understand how the May 2024 promotion is working. I used the promo code for 2 tickets.
In the instructions, it says the first step is to earn a qualification ticket. Is this different than the 2 free ones I got? If different, how do I earn a ticket, by winning or placing in a MTT tourney? If that, how do I know when I enter a tourney that I will get the right prize?
Also, when I try to register for a MTT tourney, I have no option to use a ticket. I don’t want to join an MTT, wait endless hours for it to start, then find out I didn’t join one that will give me a ticket.
How do I know which table or games will get me a ticket for week 2?
Unfortunately, the directions and explanation on the Replay site are not very helpful, it makes it more confusing.
The 2 free tickets offered in the Promo are used to buy-in the 2d week of the Marathon. The 1st week are Freerolls where you can win Week 2 tickets and chips.
In the Lobby sort the Tournament heading ascending or descending order and it will group the tourney names and times together in a group. Click on the game you want to play, and a box will be in the upper right, click the Star to make it a Favorite. In the header section of the Lobby click Favs Only and those will show as they come up, just make sure click Start and ascending order.
The First Week are Freerolls and you can win chips and a Week 2 ticket,
Week 2 you can use your ticket or buy-in when you only can win a Final Game ticket which can only be used for one of the Final Games which has a no late registration period.
Yeah, I ran into the same confusion. From what I’ve figured out, the 2 tickets from the promo code are entry tickets for specific MTTs, but the “qualification ticket” seems to be earned through placing in certain tourneys. The site doesn’t clearly label which ones qualify, which makes it tough. I ended up messaging support and they did clear a few things up, maybe worth a shot?
There is a week of satellites (basically round 1) and are MTT’s every 3 hours at 15 after (times change based on your time zone). If you finish top 27 in those you make a ticket for round 2 (winning gets you 2 tickets).
Round 2 is the following week (monday thru saturday based on my timezone GMT -5) and that is the round you use the promocode tickets to sign up for. You use the tickets you won from round 1 to sign up for those or pay 10k entry. Again top 27 get tickets for the finals on Sunday (2:15-23:15 gmt-5) 28-50th place gets their ticket back for week 2.
Finals tickets are on sunday and you MUST use a ticket to get into that and there is no late registration
Also you will find these in MTT’s and are colored yellow
The week2 tickets free or earned this week start ? Sunday ish
To make it easy to find the running and up coming games, Check Hide Finished then click on Start so the arrow is up. gl
A thread like this starts on all Marathons and other SNG/MTT Promos, players can not find the games. My idea to make it better would be something like this:
Adding a new page, and add there only the MTTs/SNGs of Marathons, Sprints, Mothers Day Freerolls, Foolrolls, Bust The Staff,… Easy to find, no or not many filtering needed, easy to add a link on the Promo Page to this page. Only a click, and we can see what promo games are running today. I’m sure it is not many work to add this.
I sent it to support.
I’m in for the May Marathon..already had a decent start with a small win on Book of Dead yesterday. Pacing myself this time and sticking to lower bets to stretch it out. These marathons are more fun when you track progress and set a daily limit.
I’m rotating between three slots to avoid burnout..Dead or Alive 2, Big Bass Bonanza, and Gates of Olympus.
Keeping notes on each session helps me see where my bankroll’s really going.
Had a habit before of chasing losses early on..won’t be doing that this time.
No they have specific ones. They are 15 minutes after the hour every three hours and are labeled as marathon. They are the yellowish colored ones. As you can see on the screenshot at 11:15 pm. But I am in Eastern timezone in US so your times may be different.
Monthly Marathons are a different animal then the MTT or SNG
You can use the week 2 tickets in next weeks May Marathon, Buy in might show 10k with a ticket next to, Your ticket is good for it.
Any other tickets can be used in any MTT or SNG with a ticket next to the buy in, Of the same value as your ticket (Can’t use a 5k ticket for a 2,5k buy in or two 2.5k for a 5k)
