NAh, those pokerstars freerolls are pretty poor, wouldn't be bothered with them. The regional ones that require points are good enough and I'd play in them alright. But the rest of them are poor. I saw one the other day that had a $100 prizepool and 40,000 participants, I mean ffs. Daily Eight Grand isn't too bad tho in fairness I suppose.

I have been playing the satellite for the daily eighty. The best I did was 11th and I won $5.50. Only 1st through 5th positions get the ticket to the daily eighty. It's very difficult when you have to outlast over 10.000 players, but I'll keep trying

not hard, all you need is some good luck, since this is a turbo, and half the people go all in with 72o

Posted by smurphy: just wondering if anybody esle is playing? no?
I don't, but I used to. I cashed 5.50 just one time. Pretty fast structure and the registration is closed in about 4 seconds ahahahha, so you have to be pretty fast clicking the register button.
For those things I really thing does not worth it. Freerolls at PokerStars are waste of time unless your bankroll be $0.

Yesterday I tried to play one of these Daily Eighty Grand Freeroll's, but with 10k players I lost the motivation pretty fast. I mean wtf, I need to make it to the top 9 out of 10k players, in a freeroll where 95% of the players are poor donks. Not possible, imo, without A LOT OF LUCK.

Don't play the freeroll, it reallly isn't worth anyones time. Because you'd be spending hours and hours on the freeroll, even if you do win a ticket, you still need to play the actual tourney. It really isnt worth it.
