That's great! Congrats, you guys!

Good to see some FTR regulars taking the top places, instead of some unknown freetrollers.

[lolzzz_321]

Congrats man

[FlyingSaucy]

Congrats, and agreed X.
I noticed quite a few folks with 1 - 5 posts that just want in on the freeroll, any way to prevent that? Post requirement, length of membership requirement?

[thenonsequitur]

On the flip side, you get people like me, a regular FTR poster that would like to participate in FTR free rolls, but I never do because I never think to check the free roll forum. (In fact, I didn't even know the free roll forum existed until I had already had been a member for over a year and had a post count of more than 500).

You may wan't to rethink the requirements for this reason.

What a fish, I thought he told me he won. GG rolla

[dsmrolla06]

He probly should have won. He had a bigger stack than me almost the whole tourney, and i was shortstacked up until about the 200 bb. I never would have thought i could have made the final table at that point.

HAHAHAHA...true true true.

I was actually playing really well last night and had a big stack early...felt the mojo...got KQ suited and raised...got one or two calls...flop came junk, Q, Q...I check and another guy bet 120...I raised to 240...I had him covered...he pushed...I called he had Q8..river? 8

I went on triple double tilt.

I had enough chips that if I'd stuck to my original strategy I might have made another run but that's not in my donkavision

[bigspenda73]

I had 80k 4 handed and open pushed my SB with QJo.

A fish who had been claiming to be sooooo good the whole time calls my all in with a 25k stack with K6o. Blinds were 1-2k. Pretty sure I hate his play but Im not gonna analyze. That knocked us all down to even.

From then on rolla picked up aces like 17 times and it was GG.

In all seriousness, you could tell his background was in tourneys and mine was not, I felt severely outplayed.

[uscheese]

well congratulations to you guys...spenda has obviously been reading the freerolling for dummies book I lent him.

[bigspenda73]

You'll have to read the book I just finished.

Depositing money on a poker site for dummies.

[dsmrolla06]

I really doubt i outplayed you... That was my first game in a month. And i got aces 3 times in 17 hands along with AT and AK when we were 3 handed. I just had the cards comin my way.

[givememyleg]

nh sir's.

what was the payout?

[bigspenda73]

225 for rolla
150 for me

[dsmrolla06]

Heres a funny hand
