Hi,I recently found out about the FT leaderboard.This month the prices for leaderboard are 1000$,last months the prices were 2000$.
Next month there will be some changes in the freerolls.For example there will be only 25$ freerolls and they'll start in 2 hours,not in 1 hour and a half like it used to be.
Does that mean that next month there will be 500$ Leaderboard prices???(250-top 30,250-freeroll)

Thats good nes indeed. I love to play them, because of the leaderboard even though I did´nt make it in the top 200 the past 2 month. But I would like more less freerolls with higher pricepool.

Greetings Acedril and welcome to BRM. I can't say for sure why the leader boards have been decreased but Black Friday is a pretty good guess, less rake equals less profit, and usually when profits go down so does a companies willingness to part with funds (shareholders are a demanding lot). In any case, good luck climbing the ranks, and enjoy BRM.

Hi Acedril. I expect the freerolls have decreased because the amount of money being given out in the daily freerolls with one every 1.5 hour for $25.00 & 3 * $50.00 freerolls.
I enjoy the freerolls with the exception of these idiots that go all in with nowt. I have a theory on that so will be using it next month and if I am successful, (make it to top 100), I will share my secret. Anyway GL to you and hope to see you on the tables soon.........
GL to all mobsters...........................
PS Am having to stay up late tonight to play last freeroll to make tope 200, about 250th, (I guess at moment)
------------ Hi again. Just checked in for BRM freeroll due to start at 04.30 FTP clock time. Guess what it has moved to 05.00 and the freerolls are now every 2 hours and there are not any $50.00 freerolls anymore.
Oh well on half truths from our own administrator, come on admin, we rely on you for the whole truth.
GL to you all anyway and you admin.......................

Hmm, does this mean there will be only $25 freeroll tourneys throughout June, starting every 2 hours ? I guess this is much less attractive to players than less freerolls with higher pricepool. At least to me this is true.

@MarcWinz Secret? I have some "secrets" too.For example limp pairs,catch a set and make the donks with top pair loose all. Hope I'll compete with you this month for top leaderboard.

Also definitely agree here. The time investment is just not worth it (and before you say, "Then don't play then." you should know that I don't, for that very reason. Not to say that I wouldn't consider it if they resolved a whole lot faster (Upping the prize pool would help too, but I know that's not really an option, eh Admin?).
2 hours are too much time.
