Placed 41st in the pokerstars freeroll this morning (not big money, but at least enough to sit again at a money table). About a half hour after the free roll started, I also entered a Hubble's FreeRoll qualifier (along with 11,999 other people). Placing (in top 99) at these qualifiers is what gets you a ticket to the weekly free roll tourneys.
Well, I got my ticket in that tourney (playing them at the same time), and after playing it for 7:30, I ended up with all the chips. I have final tabled a time or 2 on some of these very large tourneys, but usually have been very short on chips, and did not last long. This is my first win on a huge entry table.
These are "freeroll" tourneys. The site posts real money for the winners. On PStars, they have 2 weekly $2000 freerolls. To play in these, you have to first win a "ticket". That is what happened in the tourney I won. the top 99 people win a ticket. NOTE the person that came in 99'th and myself (winning it), did just the "same". The last 2 hours or so (after we dropped down to 99), were the "just for fun" play.
Actually, I had only about 90k chips when we crossed the 99 player level, and I simply started pushing all my chips every hand. First 3 times, everyone folded. 4th time I lost, 5th and 6th time I won, so I had about 200k chips, and I decided to "play" for real. It still took about 2.5 more hours.
NICE! Dam right Husker!
Ive never placed that hi online. Cant say I ever played real money either.
I play Party Poker and Full Tilt all the time. well used to lol spend my time reading all I can here now.
Do you watch any poker on TV? I'm hooked! I tape dvr everything poker on my satellite.
You see it all the time now. Somebody wins the tourney off a $25 satellite these days.$25 dollar turned into 1.5 mill...
Keep it up and maybe you'll be next..
