So I'm currently playing in the 100k depositors freeroll , running deep , 22743 players registered , 73 left , running for 4 hours , and I'm placed 9th position with 996.249 $ stack , hoping to bring it down , or at least a top 3-4 position . So let me tell you a thing about patience in Mtt , considering this is a freeroll , but it has a nice prize pool , 1st 330 $ , 2nd 220 $ etc , I played about 1 hour and a half with basically 10 bb , 10-15 bb , only had 1 show down , A 10 vs K j , but that was when I was short stacked , and decided to try and steal the blinds , and the BB called , so in short , when you're playing a mtt , have patience , your efforts will eventually be rewarded . I'll be back with updates , if anyone wants to watch me show off my poker skills you can search me , my pstars id is : Ciki89 , Cheers

Up and down but still in third place on the break. Just hang in there.
Had some pretty nasty hands afterwards , trips on flop lost against straight on river , 2 pair of flop lost against trips on river , and it goes on , busted out in 12th place , but now I'm in a 3.30 $ 4 max table, 1 k guaranteed , currently 3d out of 22 so things are pretty good.

Oh hey grucas , got a bit unlucky at that last hand , but still , I broke my golden rule , don't play crap hands , Q 3 , but a Q 3 J on flop seemed pretty good , but the good news is I managed to take down the , 3.30 $ , 4 max , 1 k guaranteed tournament , a nice prize of 250 $ , so things turned out excellent ,
