Posted by mahdrof: I see from the leaderboard you won again, nice job! Just when I thought I was starting to catch up on you... Went out in 15th last night, UTG shoves with 4-8 sooooooted and I call with AK, runner runner flush and I am gone. UTG 4-8 suited and shoves! LMFAO! That's the freerolls! GL
'No, that's still the first one that got me 21+ points. The $100 ones pay off more.
Don't think I'll have the patience to do it again though, we'll see. GL making that top mahdrof!
My mistake! You had a good start Jack, are you going to make a run at the overall leaderboard? I won't have time to play enough of them unless I get really lucky and smash a few of them. We'll see. In the meantime the money I won on FT is starting to multiply at the cash tables.

I think I will, but I must say this is THE WORST play I have ever seen, even for Freerolls. Just absolutely ridiculous!
People (I won´t call them players, that would be a joke), are REALLY going all-in with anything!! Amazing!
Had my AA and everything else busted by the most ridiculous hands, just like you and LOTS worse. Unbelievable... I don´t know if I´ll be able to keep going because it just pisses you off big time, can´t help it when seeing such garbage.
And on top of that!!!!... people congratulating others when their AA gets busted by a lucky 23o!!! They say"nice hand" in the chat. Really! makes me sick.
Best I can do is play my usual poker games (real ones I mean ) and take some of these freerolls on the side. It´s not that tough to at least get a few cents worth by not doing too uch and playing good hands in`postition. That way you can avoid the all-ins with 5 idiots. One of them always wins somehow. Good luck buddy!
Edit - Tip! You can also try signing up after 20-25min, that way half the field is gone already and a lot of the SUPER-Donks are out. Still a lot of Donks left though... Just try and double/triple etc up then. just a suggestion.

LOL! That always gets me when somebody makes a really dumb call, gets lucky, and somebody else says NICE HAND! LMFAO!
Because of the time investment required to win not much, I'm often shoving early (but with solid cards) in the hopes of getting a big stack and riding through to the final table. If I go out early there are other things I can be doing, but like you do, having them on the side is a good method too.
