"I will say though, that judging by the registration dates and the post counts in this thread, there is a reason you guys needs a free $2 ticket. You would be playing far higher stakes and have moved well into a better poker stratosphere by spending more time posting on FTR and the strat forums"

From a bankroll of zero on Carbon, I took my 1x $2 ticket (generously given to me by FTR) to the $2 EarlyBird deepstack on Carbon (freak'n 4hr. late reg... wtf is that?).
Managed to take 4th of 206 entrants boosting the bankroll by nearly 15x
Although I don't post much in strat. & did 'need' the ticket (sign-up 2008... sighs shamefully).. I did read the sticky sections when I first joined up & actually read some of them over & over (even printed some of them off into duotangs for more reading). Those stickied threads helped me out immensely in my first year playing online.

woot woot!! Thanks FTR!! Once again have a puney micro bankroll on Carbon & don't need to uninstall it anymore.
