Posted by Mober: BRM is seeking for promotion and they are succeeding to it with the tournament as it is .
But as the others mentioned above - and we regulars all know it since the dawn of time - the real prizes are in the leaderboard anyway. Theres just no real reason to try and fight your way through hundreds of people for cents if you re not particpating on the leaderboard where all of this makes sense.

But people do play for hours on end just for a few cents cos it's free poker. Everyone loves something for free and this is just another example of being able to play for free. So you play for three hours and win 0.30c. That's no great sum I hear you say, but when you think about what you can then acheieve with 0.30c the world becomes a different place. You can start turning that into even more money that you didn't have before and that's how many players play. Earn a few cents in a freerolls and use it to buy in to a micro stakes game and see what you can achieve! They aren't interested in the leaderboard... it's just free poker!

bowie1984 is 100 % right and this is only way that we can protect leaderboards from all other donks who take our passwords and who love to play all in every hand!so they wouldnt have any reason to play this freerolls,beacuse only BRM members will have benefits from this points!

Even if you limit the entrance to only brm players, this wont prevent the bingo play. There will be always players like this and for sure tournaments with such prizes, allow many to try their luck, with a constant all in game.

Yeah that's why I'm not playing it anymore. At the begining there was only about 160 players, then after 2 weeks it went up to 300 and now it's full like minutes after the registration time starts... If you don't know the password sequence you just can't get in. There has to be a better way to handle passwords.
Anyways, thanks brm for the leaderboard, I'm sure some mobsters enjoyed it
