Posted by Mober: Seriously now. How much money you could possibly want to travel from serbia to london back and forth. The 350 USD provided is not enough ? It is more than enough. You could say that the ticket is expensive here, as you already did, but not that the flight money is not enough for your country.

Try buying an airline ticket to any destination a week before you would travel. Suprise suprise the closer the date of the flight the harder to find a cheap option. Now you could say London is so big of a destination there is no problem to find cheap tickets but many budget airline go to Luton instead Heathrow so good luck getting a cheap travel option from there into the city. It is complicated, some people will burn through that 350 very-very fast just by travelling.

It always amazes me that people forget the once truly beloved mode of travel called, The Train. To get to London from anywhère in Europe is easy and relatively simple and cheap by train. The world doesn’t exist just for aeroplanes and the train will outlast them. Give it a go. Let the train take the strain.

I m familiar with ticket prices. But the changes arent that big in europe depending on the day you are looking for a ticket. Not to mention that the final game is on sunday, so we are talking about twelve days, prior to the day of the tournament.. No doubt you could still be able to get a ticket for less. Maybe not for a non stop flight, but still.

So! At 19.57GMT this evening I decided I would pay my $10 and give this baby a go. After an hour of winning a couple of hands, and other players rebuying, I found myself 15th out of 15 and the chance of the add on awaiting. I duly paid my extra $1 and bought an add on.
At about 22.35GMT I was second With 5 players left. I had qualified to Sunday’s final!
I have to say I did not recognise anyone at the tables from BRM but hey, if they show up here then good for them. I finished the tourney in second place for $35 and a ticket to the final on Sunday where the winner walks away with the big prize.

There is also prize money from what i see here. So you got the ticket for the final, and made a profit also. Good thing you went for the rebuy. And if you win the ticket, that travel money will go straight to your pocket Good luck on the final.

It's nice to play in satellite tournaments, so you can get a qualification in a live tournament, organized in another country. I mean those who want to get there, because there are other players, who do not want to play live tournaments because of the emotions or other problems. Good luck Damosk for a place in this tournament which is organized in your country.

Most recently we have been restricted as a country from playing certain freerollpoker tournaments. what is this happening. there are no opportunity to learn poker games for the begginers. I think Bankrollmob should resolve this problem ASAP. At least run the $250 Bankrollmob Freeroll tournament twice a month, so that new comers are getting some advantage.

What is the update for the final result here? Who won the ticket? Any known brm member. I see above that there were many ukranians in so the odds were favoring them to get the package. I wanna see where the winner is from to see if the money for the flights can cover the trip
