Yesterday I finally manged to win my first 3,30 dollar ticket by playing an intelli poker school pass freeroll. I have been trying for quite some time but never made it because of too many starting players and too many rebuys or add ons.

Well done StS5, it's always nice to achieve something for the first time. Freerolls with rebuys or add one are always tricky to negotiate given the cheap nature of the game and the kind of player that takes part in them. Take heart but don't think you are world champion just yet!

I know that winning a 3,30 dollar ticket is not something special, but when you are playing for over three hours you have to be happy, because if I go out just before the cut I am absolutely frustrated. So why not be proud when making it.

Congratulations on your qualification. i hope this wont be your last ticket you get. This was the easy part. Now the hard part is to win some money with it, which practically makes this 2 wins in a row Good luck with it.

Posted by teddybears73: Aye, i tried a few of them with no luck so well done stss on getting one Maybe i'll try another one now.
If you want to try your luck with the school pass tickets I would advice you to do it today or tomorrow, because until then they have more than doubled the number of available 3,30 dollar tickets in all three daily tournaments.

thanks mate
Plus they have some sort of series now too, every day a different kind of tourey held (around 50 bucks prizepools) the buy-in is a school pass and the obscure ones (trip draw, razz etc.) aren't have that many registers so it might be easier to navigate through for somebody with patience.

It is true, that they have a so called school online series. There are two 50 dollar tournaments each day: the first is at 21:00 central european time and the second one at 2:00 in the night. The second one is better, because of less players.

If anyone wants to play in these tournaments you should do it now, because at the moment there are not too many school pass tickets out there for the last intelli promotion has just ended. Thats why the number of players is very low!

If you on pokerstars, the PSO has brought back the new player bankroll management tool. Do some lessons and earn some $0.50 SnG tickets and you will get some school pass tickets after the 5th or 6th lessons.
They either give you 2 or 3 SnG tickets to help you start your bankroll off.
got a 1st and 2 3rd place finishes with mine. (for SnG)

... < Nice score dude...!
...Satellites can be good to you at times,...and that one you played is no easy task...! Maybe only a $3.30 ticket,...but it can earn you bigger cash...and F or VPPs...,....and besides,...it's just the principle OF it...
Now only thing you need to do is cash in that 3,30$ tournament, maybe even take it down, and it would be awesome!!! I wish you all of luck to win that 3,30$ tournament
