Jeez, I'm out already - 790/831 [:0]

9C/10C in the hole
weak betting, only a few raises
Flop is 8D/10H/JD
One other guy betting, I put him on JJ max
So I go all in, and he calls, showing A high to my 10s (& straight draw)
Turn's a 4 - me still winning
River is.......A!

Can't believe I went out to a lucky river [n][n]

Cheers

To find out how many hands you have played. Go to support and open live support where you will be able to talk to customer service and ask them and they will tell you! 14 more to go for me before i get my 5000 FC miles!!:D

I signed up last night, put some credit into my account, and watched for a bit.

I got an email today to say I had qualified for 5000 miles... not bad seeing as I haven't played a hand yet. [?][?]:D

I have deleted the email from Flying club ref the Virgin Poker promo. I registered like yourself Nick and recieved an email notifying me that I have recieved 5000 miles aswell. I haven't as much looked at a table yet - I was planning on getting stuck in at the weekend. [}:)]

Can someone check the small print in the email as it sounds like you get the 5000 miles for registering - Seems as if you don't need to play 50 hands??? [y]

All the email that I got said was:

Hi,

Thanks for coming over to Virgin Poker, itÕs great to see you at the tables.

As you are a Virgin Atlantic Flying Club member we are running a 5000 miles promotion for you for the next couple of months. To qualify for the 5000 miles all you have to do is:

1) Go to the cashier at Virgin Poker, set up a real money account, deposit and play 50 hands or more. Simple.

2) Once you have done this please reply to this email with your Flying Club number and we will make sure your Flying Club account is credited with 5000 miles.

ThereÕs a whole host of action packed games and tournaments running everyday at Virgin Poker. So whether youÕre new to the game or a seasoned pro we sincerely hope weÕve got something for you.

More importantly you can also earn Virgin Atlantic Flying Club miles at Virgin Poker. Every hand you play at either a real cash table or a tournament will earn you V-points. V-points can then be converted into Flying Club miles as well as Virgin Vouchers, Virgin United donations and Virgin Poker cash. For the full run down on the humble V-point, why not check out our Virgin Poker website at http://www.virgingames.com/poker/loyalty/Default.aspx

Thanks for coming and why not try out our daily $50 freeroll or one of our special V-point tournaments?

Get into our game. Virgin Poker


(they'll know we're FC members because of the link we followed to download & sign up)

I got onto a Turkish table this morning, and managed to play through some 90 hands or so, only losing ~8TRY (whatever they are, I was assuming it was Lira, but that would be TRL [?] - more to the USD though, so costs even less). I've now replied with my FC number [y][y]

Cheers

Took today off to get my drive ready for 24 tons of new gravel arriving tommorow (oh yes this girl knows how to have fun). P*****d it down this morning so I spent a couple of hours on Virgin Poker - deposited the minimum $20 (£11.04) and played about 60 hands in 2 hours at the .25/.50$ table. I now have $23 and 5000 miles:D. Better vaule than the gold AMEX deal last year - even if you lose.

Regards

How can you find out how many hands you have played?
Or do you have to keep count yourself?

I've registered to Virgin Poker and played for 3 hrs.
Deleted the email so got to Virgin Poker from the FC web-site.

At present I'm down $1.25[:0]

Problems:
1)Customer services can't tell me how many hands I've played!

2) No association to Virgin Miles.

I'm playing the low tables (0.05c) any ideas on how I fix these two problems?
