I can't complain, I started playing poker at AP and it took me 3 days to win my first freeroll (I played poker for less than 10 months now).

I think I made more than 70 dollars playing AP freerolls (not the special ones, just the common, regular freerolls).
!
But how well did you do in the AP challenge though....$10 may not be a lot but the AP challenge prize money for 1st is around $250 this I feel is more than worth it from a free entry MTT.......

Also don't forget you beat 1999 other players to take 1st and in any kind of tournement that's pretty damn good fella.

When, I first started playing freerolls it was one of the first places I played. The tournaments are great practice but the reward leaves a lot to be desired. It did lead me to other forums and other sites for newbies its a good starting point.

I just discovered you can't be registered for more then one freeroll at a time either. So the one I was registered for in about 3 weeks would preclude me from playing any up to that point. Well they will enjoy the lowered traffic on their site i'm sure and the lowered amount in my account there

I honestly don’t care for the A.P free rolls but what about the forum games they have on Saturday and Sunday

Are we only going to be able to play 1 every 2hrs?

A.P created these problems with their free rolls. Why don’t the cut it down to 3 $100 instead of the 20 $50.then they could use that money to add to or guarantee prize pool like the ipoker network

To start with I have to totally agree with Joshy......!!!

tru why don't you just un-register the one you are in until nearer the time.......????

I can see the logic in the public freerolls to give everyone a chance to play in their crazy all in fest however it seems that they are trying to force forums to have buy ins instead of freerolls, which would be in keeping with their policy of only giving forums that have a certain number of depositing players who signed under the forum link irrispective of the number of players they get in their freeroll & buy in events.

AP doesn't have nearly as many freerolls as they used too, granted they still have quite a few. This last summer and fall I think they had one freeroll every 30 minutes all the way up until 5PM. Than they held one every 1 hour. So it used to be they would hold about 40 $50 dollar freerolls a day.

I also remember for a very short period of time they held a super 1k freeroll in the afternoons, I'm kind of disappointed they got rid of that. AP used to be way cooler than what it is now. It used to be that AP was the site for the freeroll whore, now it may not be.
