I did it! Played a couple of those 40 billionth hand anniversary freerolls $1.000 on Pokerstars. 5.000 entrants Took almost 10 hours! My goal was to make the final table, because that hasn't worked so well yet for me. I mostly play STT S&G's.
Today I did it! Throwing millions around in chips was great. The Heads-up lasted 45 min.... pffffff... Both 3.5 million in chips.
$75, not much, but that's not important. All of a sudden I have a bankroll on PS, lol.
Enough glee....
Next time I post will be when I reach the final table in the Sunday Million, lol. Just to say to those losing hope....keep trying and learning, it pays off! Good luck too...

Woohoho Good Luck to that! I don't like to play tournaments like those anniversary freerolls, because too much player, so that take so many hours to win a nice money

well done, freeroll or not thats a damn good effort beating a field of 5000+
Personally, I don't like to play the huge field events.. I prefer MTT with around 200 people. 5,000 just too much for only a $75 first prize. On PKR the $1K freeroll have a 1st prize of around $220..

just good luck for u hope it will be sure and u make it
Congratulations; I agree with you, most important thing is not to earn lots of maoney ( anyway, 75 it's not so bad ) but to reach final table and to feel himself '' strong ''
