To make restrictions on joining freerolls.


I bet 3x BB with KK against chip leader and she goes all in I call. and she shows 4 6 suited.

Chip leader or not that is BS.

She gets the flush. These Full Tilt Freerolls are a joke.

I am just fed up.

I have to agree totally with this thread!!!
I played in the later freeroll this afternoon, I m really upset with the amount of sit-outs in these games. There we 300 poeple registered for this free roll was at three different tables where there were only two or three poeple playing at each table.

That is not the only problem i have seen at these freerolls, At the start of the freeroll there were poeple wanting passwords to get into them. I thought these are suppossed to be for members only!!!
I started checking names of pooeple that were in the tournamnent agianst the members log here. Found that alot of the poeple i was playing against are not even members of this forum.
This is getting out of hand. I made it to one of the three last tables in the tounamnet, and more poeple were coming to the table, as observers, wanting passwords to upcoming freerolls. Poeple are giving out these passwords to non members it seems all the time.

Fonz I shure hope these changes come around soon, and they help out.

About the peopple giving out passwords, the two I saw give out the passwords, were not even members of this forum. So when members give out these passwords, the poeple you are giving them to are giving them out to other poeple making it worse for all the members

Wow, you cannot ask him to restrict freerolls to only tight players. That is not only ridiculous but stupid in the eyes of winning. If there are loose fish at the tables that is a definate advantage to you in the long run. And tournaments are long enough to bust them cuz of their loose playing.

hmmmmmmm. Let me reread my post. Well, darn, I don't seem to mention anywhere that the freerolls be restricted to only tight players. Assuming that is what I meant is pretty stupid now isn't it?

Why would I want week players that can be muscled out of hands out? They are easy money targers. Why would I want good players that know what they are going out? They challenge me and improve my game. And since when was a 300 hand tourney the long run.

The last time I checked that was a pretty short string of hands. That is why you see so many people get to the final table that you never see again. They will get will lose in the long run but have a good chance coast to victory on pure luck.

Amazing how you make such sweeping judgements of what I said with so little information.

You apparently don't pay much attention in freerolls. Because if you did you would see what is before your eyes. Bad players win them all the time. But, what you don't see is them ever again at the final table. They get their one shot at glory and then are busted when the get cocky and lose all their money when they actually play against good players. Because, in the long run, that kind of play is just stupid.

So, next time your try to put words in someone's mouth, make sure you know what you are talking about.

Hey Fonz,

Again. I was just in a need to vent mode on this and the other thread. Was having a bad poker day and one at work too. This in no way reflects on the job your doing with the website. I think you are doing a bang up job. Keep up the good work.
