Im sure we all have questions which are not important enough to make a thread, but still make you wonder.
If you have a question, ask it here.
And if you know and answer to a question, it would be great if you could answer it.

Here is mine: Can you get 1st and 2nd place in a multi-entry tournament? How does the final table work in those cases?

no you cant because if you reach the final table while playing multi entry your chipstack will merge, your smaller stack will be added to your longer stack and you will finish one entry in 10th position and you can keep playing with the other entry at the final table. hope you understand my english isnt great...

Is it possible to get USER CP updates when a post in news articles is responded to or has another response in them like it would for a thread?

I noticed that we can get email notifications when another person post in the news article section. However I don't check my email that often and it would be much easier (from my perspective anyways lol) to just be able to click USER CP and have it show me some one has replied.

The option I've been currently doing is re-checking every once in awhile but sometimes I forget.

Alsooo, Do you think it would be possible to make it so we can see if the news articles have responses/ comments in them without having to click on them.

This one would be harder I imagine - Ex. If I'm at the CC home page looking at the CC article titles, for little writings under the article title saying something like "This article has new responses" or something along those lines or maybe have the title glow in different colors like blue or gold. A system similar to how we know if a section of CC has new posts or not.


Or is it just preferred that if a News article is one that will get attention that we just create a thread and link the article and discuss it there?

Highly unlikely but will ask.

I just don't see the value in this. ;)

But you can discuss News articles on the news page and/or do as you say and start a thread for discussion of the topic - could link the news story in it.

Why do people ask questions to which they already know the answer ?

Like you answer a phonecall and the first question is: "hello, are you awake ?"

My guess is it's meant mainly to avoid these unpopular uncomfortable moments of silence. It's silly but that's how we roll.

Can I cash out at any time I want in a live table, or are there any limitations? Like, can I play until its my turn to place the bb and then just leave?

You can leave whenever you wish, I personally like to wait till the BB because they are free cards but you don't have to if you don't want to.

Edit: but if you want to come back you're going to have to post or wait till BB.

Yup - just leave. You should tell the dealer that you'll be back so they won't give away your seat. Unless you don't plan on coming back. Also you won't need to cash out you can just leave your chips on the table. So much security in Casino's there is 0% reason to worry about your money being taken

Yes all questions are welcome and everyone can make a thread if they want too. I just think that a question that can be answered in one line does no deserve a whole thread, since a single answer is all it takes :)

This is not possible - email notifications should work just fine. :)

Once I came up first in a re-entry tournament, without re-entrying myself.
I don't know how it happened.
It was really hard, players go all in every single hand with any hand, its more like bingo than poker.
Personally I don't like that kind of game but I was bored that day and was one of those once in a life time tournament I think.
