Hi i´ve cashout my complete bankroll to buy a new computer and monitor and playin freerolls in the moment a few weeks till my next deposit. Win today a 11$ satellite ticket on big bet in a horse freeroll. But i can use the ticket only for a 50000$ rebuy+addon satellite. My meaning is thats sucks is great for the site they must not spend money but for the player very unlucky. The most rebuy tournaments a pure gamble till the first break. I think for the player it was better to win maybe 5$ or can spend the ticket in a normal tournament with cash prices or Sng then they got a chance to build a bankroll. I had think about it to make a deposit on the site and on a other merge site but by the other merge site they offers no freeroll in the moment and on first i think maybe they got finanziell problems. So i think i will make my next deposit on pkr .I didn´t like the site before(kiddy style)and clear only the refer a friend bonus there. But i´ve reinstall the last days the software and use the points to play the freeroll´s and make a few dollar is so easy theres so many fishesl and good tourneys for points. And when u disable all the kiddy buttons u can play poker there. Ok but back to my question what do you think about the price structure on big bet?
------------ lol ok maybe my computer block a few words i´dont know when you think what the stupid idiot is write there complete the sence with this words P.....K.....R or F...R...E...E..R..O..L..L

i am not playing so much freerolls and big bet poker is not a site i go in to, but i think pokerstars freerolls for points is ok, 20 points for 1000$ freeroll or 10 points for 500$. i tilted my bankroll in bigbet and didnt find the site soo good.

Freerolls give you a chance to start but structure is often oriented to a quick end of the game. Would like so much to try PKR but it's not yet possible in Italy

In Sweden there is a saying (and I am sure it's elsewhere too, but maybe in other words) that you should never look a horse, that was given as a gift, in the mouth. Meaning, you shouldn't complain about what you got for free.
In pokerterms that would be: If you don't like the prizes, you should not play the freeroll.

Yeah, I got to admit you have a point too, watoba.
Interesting, by the way, that you do not look horses in the mouth in Germany either. Do you (or anybody else) happen to know if there is a similair expression in english?

I have yet to play at Big bet ,but I like playing freerolls for sure. I have just downloaded it from the bankrollmob site. I have to go back and read to make sure I fill my account out right. In english---America---it's---Never look a gift horse in the mouth. Pretty much the same I guess. It comes from an old cowboy expression in the old days when one might give an old horse as a gift, saying you should not look into the horses mouth to know his/her age as it is being given as a gift. Horse people can tell you how old a horse is by looking at their teeth. So, you would not look a horse being given a a gift in the mouth as if to say you want to check the horses age first before you accept the horse as a gift. It was considered rude to do so, as the horse was being given as a gift and the age should not matter. I don't think I would have wanted an old horse that was about to die from old age. But back in those times it was a case of respect for the gift, to not check the horses teeth for age if given a horse as a gift. Certainly one would check the horses teeth as soon as the gift giving moment had passed and the giver had parted.
Posted by supertjc: Sure would like to play there, but everytime i try to get one of the 20 daily offers, it's never available..
Hi Supertjc,
Not at the same page as you at the moment.. can you specify as to which offers you are referring? I will then be able to answer your question or at least have more insight as to what is not available everytime you try.

i have had great luck on all the merge sites. but the big bet poker site is not as good as the other merge sites..i think if u give them a little time it will get better because they always are asking for ways to improve there site and give very quick feed back on anything u ask or suggest to them. very quick cashouts, and yes lots of fish too. And to the rebuy thing, let me ask u this "On what site anywhere are rebuys not a complete donkfest until the break..." dont matter if its 50 bucks or 1 buck the rebuys are crazy flat out...so u cant blame their site for the way people gamble.Overall i am very pleased with the Merge Nework. And u dont see many site that they have someone in the forum page answer replies to the post... i think they are honestly trying to give the best poker experience but people need to voice their idea's to them and let them try to help. because they have answered everything i have ask of them.... good luck at the tables all at BRM
