IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM CCG:

PRE-REGISTRATION AND BONUS COUPONS:

The hosting charities, starting the first of the year, will be checking that every player has the bonus coupon or a pre-registration email confirmation.  If you do not have proof you will be required to either buy the $5 add on or go without the bonus chip.


Why the change?
CCG and the hosting charities depend on the email list and players checking the site for tournament information and directions, and most importantly for getting players to the events.  Unfortunately, less and less players are registering for the newsletter, and therefore the events become less profitable. (Which means lower prize pools, less juicy cash games, and longer wait times between sit n go’s).

What do I need to do as a player?
Check to make sure you receive the weekly newsletter, and be able to show your newsletter on your phone, or with a printed copy. The coupons on the bottom of the email will now only be good for each weekend, you will not be able to carry over your coupon from week to week.

What if I do not have an email address?
In this day and age everyone should have an email address, but we understand if you do not have a computer, or cannot read, or choose to communicate via smoke signal or carrier pigeon. CCG has many outlets for you to pre-register, and we have more on the way. Here are a few ways that you can register and receive your bonus with out an email address:
  • Facebook Secret Code (you must be a fan on facebook)
  • Twitter Secret Code (same as the facebook code)
  • Text Message – coming to you early 2012
  • Android or iPhone application – available via iPhone and coming soon on the Android.
  • CCG VIP Card Holder – coming to you early 2012

The bottom line is to please please please sign up for the newsletter.  That is the best way to save yourself $5 on every MTT. The hosting charity will no longer spot check, but check every event, every tournament. No exceptions will be made. So please register and make sure you are receiving your emails from CCG. If you have questions please feel free to contact CCG.
