I'd like to play it today, but I don't know how long it will take, and how many players usually register there, has anybody experience with this? I don't want that I have to leave and sit-out while I am ITM somewhere...

They are very very long tourneys with thousands of players. As well as the daily freeroll qualifiers long for more than five hours (can be five and a half or six as well) because of quite slow blind increasing structure and the so many players.

Thx for the information! I don't like blinds which go up just every 15 minutes, way too slow for me, I prefer 10-7 minutes-blinds

Yeah i have several tickets for the weekly round 2 too, and it takes time as the round 1 is easy if you get a good run and then sit out to get the ticket for round 2, at round 2 the action is low as blinds does not move faster and also there are less crazy shits happening, it might happens sometimes in first few levels, but then the craziness tends to dies down and you have players playing it like a tournament and taking it very seriously . So you can play them as they are a good tough tournament and you can get some experience. Anyway good luck mate!

About 2.5 hours and you're in the cash,...how much further than that you go depends...
I had a ticket laying around for a while and decided to use it today,...money started paying at about .40c,...I made it to .69c,...fairly deep,...but not a huge payout 'till the later stages...
Just get past a few bingo queens,...and it's a GREAT tourney to play,...especially for FREE,...although,..it is a wee bit of a chore to get a tic... Many hours playing as you know...

of course it also depends on what tourney you pick- those offering rarer poker forms (stud hi/lo, razz, 2-7 draw etc.) are not so infested with degenerates who have no money in their poker accounts and are doomed for eternal destiny as a freeroll whore (damn it i just described myself).
