I used yesterday school pass ticket, and played for 1 hour, I was little down from average, and I got 99 on SB all players fold to button, he limped, I raised 3, or 4 BB cant remember, and BB called... flop comes out 5h9dJd, and I raise like 8BB or something like that, and BB shoved, button call all in also did I... BB had J5, button had Td8d... and turn was brutal Qd... and we all got suck out... After that I was wondering why the hell you call preflop raise withT8s and J5o??? And we were all almoust same stack... And blinds were high, so there is no logic there...

Hello my friends and fellow mobsters
That is the hard reality of poker mainly at freeroll or free buy ins people don´t care how day play it´s just a bingopoker and sometimes they hit and crash the tournaments of other players
Nothing that we can do about it just keep on trying and sometimes grind also on them

I have misclicked in the past too. And more than once Not hard to happen especially when you multi table. If someone hasnt done this so far, if he keeps playing regularly, it will happen.
Shoving your last chips with tha A was the best thing to do of course, but you got rivered again

At the moment there are pretty good freerolls you can play with your school pass tickets: 3 school pass super freebuy satellites a day and they doubled the number of tickets in all tournaments where you can win 3,30 dollar tournament tickets.

Miss licking is the scourge of online play . It's all part of the focus and focus approach to what you do when playing in line. There is no room for error and one must concentrate very hard all of the time. As for the river running wild and trashing your hand, that happens all the time everywhere! It's called probability!

Well damosk, you are saying that there is no room for error here and yet you, instead of click you lick. Be careful with this, it may get you into serious trouble lol.
No matter how hard you try and your concentration, such mistakes are unavoidable some times.

Yes sometimes misklicking happens to me as well especially when I want to click check in advance and then suddenly someone before me goes all in and instead of clicking on "check" I am clicking on "call". Most times I loose of course.

These freerolls you play many donkeys come with any pair and are able to pay all in with 72 and beat your pair of AA with flush or straight to a letter It is a butcher or witch hunt, always freerolls will bring many headaches

It is true, that there are quite alot of extremely loose players in many of those freeroll, who are going all in with nearly any hand in the first 5 minutes of the tournament. But I really love these opponents and mostly I beat them.

Do you mean a normal school pass ticket or a scratch and match ticket, which you can also win in the scratch and match game? The second one is played on Saturdays 23:30 central european time every two weeks and is for 500 dollars.

Posted by StheP: he mean on school pass ticket, not monthly freeroll...both can be won on scratch and match
If he just means the normal school pass ticket, then he should not care about any lost hand or bad result in it, because in general you can not win much with these tickets. And the worst thing is, that you have to play very long even fot a little thing.

I have to desagre with you... I had a lot of school pass tickets and you can use it for very good things... I usualy use it for new promotion that thay have... they have tournaments that give 10 tickets to satelites for 22$ tickets and also you win money in them if you reach icm ( money is from rebuys and add on's) So usualy around 90 people get paid... first place coul be 5$+ first 10 get ticket four sat with 22$ tickets... Thats preaty good, they have a lot of good tournaments for those tickets... there is now school championship of online poker where first place is around 8$ I think... its good for those who freeroll

Well StheP, you are right about the tournament you described. It was called School pass super freebuy satellite and this was the best tournament series I had ever seen, that could be played with school pass tickets. But it ended today!

And the best thing about these School pass super freebuy satellites was the fact that all the money from the rebuys and add ons was added to the pot and you could also win money. But this was the first and only tournament where I have seen this!
