There is no real reason to play the OPL if you are not going to play for the whole month , as the most money you can get in the leaderboard , but anyway good luck in the tourney , hope you took this one down ...
i did started to play from the begining but didnt have no luck so far, but yesterday i was 43 place and now 9th place, again no luck even having stronger pairs bouth of the suckouts came from my opponents hitting straight. lol i even had KK two times and when i raised by 3X everybody folded. Anyway its gona lunch me high and 4 more good resolts like that and im in the premier league for sure. And since i have over 150 points earned this month i have to do some miracle to finish in the Premier.

You now are very far from the top 500 to make the premier league. You have a lot to many minus on the leaderboard and if you continue playing like you do you won't make it.
Going deep in a few tournaments and getting minus you are eliminating your good result.
IMO the best way to make it is to play very tight and not getting high minus be in the points in most of the tournaments will get you in top 500.

I think this month you must make 150VPP so next month when you are in premier league, youll get bigger prize... last month you only had to earn I think 20VPP to be aligeble to play in premier...
would very much like that kent 1974 all i need is few good results to b atleast 600 place so those who dont have 20 points earnd i think i could squise in between. I know pinotte dont you think i do my best every time i play but sometimes its imposible to make a good result when theres so much bingo players i have to fold each good card and when i get KK or aces going all in agin no luck. Will see this remaining days maybe i can do something.
Sthep i have more then 800 points earned this month thats why im rushing now to hit imposible

It takes special dedication and perseverance to go deep in a tournament with hundreds of thousands of entrants. You probably have never played with most of the participants before. It could be mind-boggling when you face the unknown or unfamiliar elements.

I assure you that in an Open League does not need to know opponents and their style of play. Enough that you yourself played well. And it is very important to survive the bubble. In the Premier League even before the bubble, if you're close, you can get + points. P.S. Buva13, You SUCCESS!!!
of course i did played with more entrants Tony wtf lol i alredy mention i won 3rd place with 21700 players in it and the sadest thing is it was a freeroll and i didnt gain more then 100$ also played MicroMillions to manny times but never was that lucky to hit bigger gain .
Kent1974 this is what i need , cause im tierd of all the bingo players that play this league one time and when u check their name in the league they are far behind on lats say 70000 place. Just going all in but to be truly honest i hate that kind of play i like to go at the showdown betting step by step more then go all.
------------ Now i play my first open skill today and im currently 361 place from 10000 players , like i said it before what the hell i got use from skill if i lose from some bingo player getting lucky. Even two aces dont help i already mention how i lost in Micro Millions main event. And the sadest thing is that realy most of the time players who dont deserve to win take the pot.

There seems to have been some misunderstanding here. I did not literally insinuate that you had never played in massive-field tournaments by stating “You probably have never played with most of the participants before.” I am aware that you have a plenty of experience. What I meant was that you will likely be unacquainted or unfamiliar with most of the participants and their playing styles because you have not played or interacted with them in the past. Well, I assume that won't be a problem for a seasoned player like yourself.
Good luck with your game. You'll do great!

Made another deep run below last 100 and fall out on 65 place holding 33 on board KQQ3J my opponent had KQ lol I WAS fearing that and my nightmare came true . Only fkt up thing is that i made another 2x - 8 points but im getting very close to 2000 place and if i keep up with this pace im doing in last three days i might find myself in the Premier despite the minuses i collect on the way i can make one big and i cover the loss. Dont feal like hitting 6000 chips and then sit out of the tabel till bubble not my style. Fight bold or die trying
even i came as the rocket in top 2000 didnt last long , f**kt up last 2 now cause normaly bingo play involved folded each and every good hand till i find myself in the corner but still have time to redo my trys and thats exactly im gon do by the 2am or 3 dont know how long its gona last. It was nice to see that 2,5$ of a possible league wining but still have to lot of work to do. That means to fight those Hanibal Lector Bingo Cheapshots donky kongs and stay Fold Focus test drive till i get Aces or Kings or 22 and slowly f**k up their game.
------------ lol 3rd time out before bubble and heres how guy raises 3x big blind im holding KK and normaly i do not wonna reraise before i see the board, the flop comes 4h2d8d they all check and i raised by 3/4 it was obvious to me that those guys were holding AJ or AQ AT doesnt mater even if some hit 8, turn was 9 of clubs , everybod checked again and i went all in. And of course river rats get their A. Funny How it goes that way holding Aces no ace on board, holding one ace defenetly comes at river.
Same old pattern of fliping cards like deja woo nothing random in it and thats lame about it.
Now from 1815 points im gona b down at the begining of yesterday and probably gona have around 1770 points.

This tournament in open league you cant play like others tournaments.I play in this open league in last 3+ years think 4 times and every time i play just enought i need to make to top 500 for that i usualy need 10-15 days of playing 2 or 3 daily... My tactic is next folding all hands on every raise pushing only AA pre flop waiting to see flop when you are on bb every hand use all time you have register in last seconds off late reg... Use this tips and you will finished every tournament atleast in top 1500... And if you have luck maybe will crush my record 6 tornament in row finishing in top 400 from 10000 players... GL
Last chance i got 1967 points in the League and will probabky lose -17 cause didnt have luck in last two but theres only 1 game left and if i make 60 and something points i will b in the Premier
I play in the Premier, but can not boast of such results
