ha
last time I counted it was around 27. I'm going to guess $250/$150/$100 but I often don't know what I'm talking about.
I like how there are only 3-4 actual contributors signed up. I hope a couple of you stick around, it would be more +eV than freeroll whoring.

Never, these are like crack to some. Hours and hours of bad poker for a $0.05. If they get $2 or $3 they end up on a 10NL or 25NL table trying to play super tight and get stomped. STUPID. Most will go on and on about not having any money or not wanting to spend hard earned money but the fact of the matter is they have exhausted their visas, or bank accounts and think they will bail themselves out playing these. If anyone is still reading, i'm not just ranting, here's some advice. Stop playing in 50 freerolls a week. Spend some time actually learning the game. Read. You've found FTR, learn what is on the site. Go to the MTT section. Learn about Zones & M. Learn about EV. Learn about Short stack poker/Deep stack poker. Then find $50 somehow, put it on Pokerstars, play the $1 and $2 tourneys. Real tourneys With real payouts. Top 200 or so make 30% or 40% back. Easy.
This is not to shoot down the freerolls. They are fun for some. A hobby for some. But alot of these frerollers are just cruising the sites, looking for more games, trying to get rich. Thats why the go thru the hours of effort to play, open accounts here, register. Not to learn, not to stay here. There gone. go check the chat room 10 minutes before a freeroll and read what happens. Check the registered players and see if any came back. The last 4 or 5, nobody from FTR even made final table, or even played for what it's worth. Just cause they register to get a password, they ain't FTR.
thanks for letting me rant. I dislike the whole process of these here. The admins are trying to grow the site, I know, I respect that,
these are not the droids you are looking for.
If one freeloader get this I've done my jopb with this rant. Get a calender. Write down every minute of time spent freerolling. Not just game time. But time searching for them, time registering on sites like this one. The time spent logging on and off of poker sites to find the games. but mostly the time spent playing in them. If you have 2 or 3 going, good for you. Take all the money you win in the next month, devide it by the hours spent freerolling and find out how much you made an hour, and for how many hours. Go to wallmart, get a PT job, work the exact same amount of hours, at $5.35 and hour and spend your free time here at FTR. You will have your bankroll. Hell stay there a couple months and learn how to casino whore while your here, you'll have $1K by March, GAURANTEED

Hello;
The time shown in the lobby is GMT (Greenwich Meridian Time) which is 5 hours ahead from EST. If you click on your options tab, you will see the option to change the time to your local time. Try it out!!
Remember that those that don't have the FTR codes, won't be registered.
See at the tables!

In thye lobby it still is posted for the 17th but one hour early at 20:00 hrs -- but, you are right in that if you click on the individual tourney lobby it has the 18th at one PM. That would be an impossible time for us working stiffs.
This would be my first freeroll, so I don't guess I'm a whore, I have been putting my real money on the line.
I just signed up for this tourney becaues FTR sent the email asking me to do so and I was thinking of trying out Doyle's room anyway. Perhaps the powers that be will get this clarified up for us soon so that we can adjust our schedule. But I think it it is really Monday at one PM there will not be many people playing. I know I could not play then.
