We've got a special $500 freeroll taking place at 20:OOCET/16:00EST on October 27. It is password protected and you can only find the password by watching and following the partypokertv Twitch channel live stream.
I'm not sure when they will give the password tomorrow though. It could be too early for me because I'm canadian but I don't know.

This should be a well contested freeroll and i think that there will be quite a few entries. Unfortunately, i am never able to play in these tournaments due to family commitments, but i will be checking to see who has done well in it. Good luck to all playing

well i better stick with watching pornhub or redtube than moving my interests over to twitch. $500 freeroll is not sounding to enticing either, different scenario would be if it was $500K freeroll, then i would jump over every hurdle in my way to join the other dudes and dudettes at the tables.

password is protected, but we can see it on Twitch channel live streaml, if so then password will see too many people, which means that the tournament will have over 1000 registered, and we all know that the password will be share among friends, who knows how many people will be register
password will be publicly available on a website where any passwords to freerolls spread ... so players will certainly be enough ... but if you play freerolls you do not get used to a large number of players in the beginning ... as usual a lot of players Ollin will be used and the number will be reduced by at least a quarter
Posted by IceQueenAce: its weird. freeroll starts at 7 but so does the twitch programme. they will preregister 3 ppl to make sure it runs
On their twitch channel it says programme will start 6 P.M. (United Kingdom time). That would make more sense! But we cannot know for sure when the password will be shown.
I guess we will just have to wait and see. Good luck to all the mobsters who manage to register and play that tournament!

If the timing is the same for the tournament and channel i guess they will have late registration. But even so it looks a weird way to schedule a tournament. Probably another party poker mess up? It wont be their first one, nor the last.

PartyPoker $500 Twitch freeroll had 1,156 entrants. 162 players got paid. Payout of $0.65 to mini-cash finishers and $78.97 to the winner of the tournament. I assume there were hundreds of password thieves in this event.

So i ended being 2nd bubble boy today on this thing and such a horrible way of going out.
Got QQ In late position after big stack calls himself into pot. I push and he calls and shows J 10 os and of course turned the 9 for a straight J high.
Was playing really well sitting top 60 at the time.
Oh well played well but nothing to show for it. Also nothing spent so all in all not too bad an experience.
Yeah TheIrish77 sucks to go out in this manner but nothing you could do about it against 2 undercards it's just really unlucky obviously. Perfect spot.
I played it too but I was out early. My JJ lost to K10 (guy flopped a 10 and a flush draw and hit 2 pair on the river after I shoved 6 bet shoved on the flop with my overpair) lol

This is always a very cruel way to go out but you played the hand perfectly okay and just got very unlucky. More often than not, your hand would hold up in these situations so you shouldn't be too hard on yourself

Hey guys! Whatever happened to the true spirit of playing poker for fun and not worrying about the fact it's 'ONLY' $500 and there will be a thousand people playing. Loads of people play at stars in the tens of thousands ands for just a $20 prize pool. Play the game and see how you do. You may enjoy it!'

I started the tournament well, I was among the first 10, after it went wrong for me, similar to others I fell out of the tournament with a lot of good card in my hand, half the chips I lost with KK, then I got AQ on a flop of were 6 8 Q, then I went all in, but the other player had 6 8
I also tried yesterday to play in this freeroll .. unfortunately nothing good came of it ... card came absolutely rubbish .. and it lasted quite a long time ... eventually I decided that we should play with what is my stack became dramatically reduced .. natural result - without winning

Why would constitute as stealing if they gave away the password free and unprotected to everybody who held interest in participating??? This is ridiculous.

Congratulations to all those who finished in the money in the $500 Twitch Freeroll at PartyPoker yesterday. It seemed to be a decent tournament with a sizable payout. I am looking forward to participating in the next event.

That was my assumption and all assumptions are opinions. I duly noted your comments.
