Nah played one last Saturday for 6 hours..came in 100th place for like 4-6$ lol and prizepool was doubled to 10k...so decided not to play it anymore to much time for so little money. Unless u hit final table the definitely worth it
Move up to top 300 area now with healthy just above average stack.
------------ Just chased a flush draw to my tournament death.
hit 2 spades on the board and went all in K Q Caught his Queen and I blanked the turn and river.

It was a bad play on my part and I should know better by now. I should have folded pre-flop after initial raise as I had like 57 k and could have waited for a premium hand instead of chasing the flush (even though it does show up a lot on PS).
Oh well wait for the next one I guess and make better decisions when that far into the tournament.
I'm done for the day not feeling it anymore.
Good bye ladies and gentlemen andhave yourself a night !

I was watching to and i agree that you last move was IMO a very bad play. You stack was not low enough to take this kind of risk reraising ALLin on a flush draw. If your stack had been very low then its OK to try. Anyway i am just confirming somethink you already know. Better luck next time.

...I haven't gone after ChromeStar or higher for a while now... but I do think that those 5K Freerolls are pretty good tourneys to play in. Not TOO many donks making a mess of things...!
...$1.40...? Not TOO shabby there EireMan...!!!
That would be the equivalent of winning the money just inside the bubble of say a $3.30 buy in game...!

I know buddy bone head play and I knew better as soon as I made the decision.
Live and learn is what they say. I'll store that one in the memory bank for future runs like this to not just give away opportunities when running deep.

yeah its just a tiny bit better than daily 100k frerolls really, unless you manage to get to ft its really not worth your time, imo
i mean for all you know you can play, and play well, for hours just to get a dollar or so, or even worse you can end empty handed :/ its worth it if you are actively playing some other tourneys at the same time but i really dont feel like spending 4 hours playing just that one frerooll, just for a chance to win a dollar or two, as i can think of quite a few better things to spend a few hours on, even if i wont get a dollar doing so
