Not complaining about the crazy bettin, but what's up with registering in a freeroll and not playing? Understand sometimes it can't be helped, but 4 /5 players at a table not playing! Don't register!

ive thought the same at times but alot of people reg for them then just cant be arsed or maybe deposit and think they cant be arsed with a freeroll and enter a real tournyor just forget because they have not payed for it so dont care enough to remember about it the same as if they have payed for it. if there is only 2 at the table you should do what i do and do a deal with the guy to share the blinds then you get a nice stack doing nothing lol

which freerolls do you mean? the freerolls at FTP sponsored by BRM? I do not know for sure, but every time I play there are alot of active players in the Freeroll.

Flippedchips; your right I shouldn't complain and I've done just that with players. I guesss I'm being a whinner today because I got beat in weekly $1000.00 with only 3 of us playing. This was after about 1-1/2 hours and got moved to the three player table. Most of the non players were about out of the initial 2000 chips so when the blinds are up a bit they're all in and I kept getting beat out by the other 2 players. I'm not that experienced and needed a whine session. It's cool! Thanks for the reply!
------------ GIOMi6; As I stated it was the weekly $1000.00 on FT and it just seemed to drag out. My fault and I don't play enough freerolls to know what's up. Still learning for the biggest part. Thanks!

well this happen at every site and yes,somewhere you can find that form 9 people at table,7 are out,but you cant do anything!but on other side lots people register 3,4 hours before,think that they will play,but something else they need to do and cant be at that moment!but still can come after 10,15 min,will have chips at tables,but if they dont register and want to play 5 min after t. started,then they cant r.,so maybe thats why they do this!

Appreciate the feedback! I've done exactly what you've stated and I'm over the whine. BRM has great members and you guys or gals are the reason. I've been in INTL, CardsChat and Poker Curious and there's nothing like BRM and I'm not kidding. Check them and you'll see. Not condemning any of the others, just BRM kicks when comparing.

That is a freeroll. Some people want to play some others only want to give a try to it and only play if they win an early all in, and many other dont want to play at all. Freerolls are just for fun. If you dont enjoy better not to register in.
