So on the 30th of june there will be a freeroll on pokerstars with a prizepool of 1.000.000 $ , pretty sick , but considering it will be capped at 150.000 players , with 1500 starting stack and 5 minute blinds , I'm pretty sure it will be really hard to do anything , still it's a nice one considering 39.500 places are paid , last place paid being 5.50 $ , and 1st place 50.000 $ , so is any bankrollmob member registered in it ?

Posted by teddybears73: aye,i read about that,how do you get a ticket for it ? is it invite only or what ?
Well , u can get a ticket directly to it by depositing 50 $ or more , or if u deposit 10 $ , you will receive a sattelite ticket to it , a 6 player SNG , with 1st place getting through to the freeroll , there are also some trivia qualifiers offered by pokerstars , but don't know what those are about.

I guess the easiest way is just to deposit $50 to get this ticket. This is what I will do, because I don´t have the time to play these trivia freerolls. Good chance to make some $ in this big freeroll.

The trivia freerolls are running now. One starts in just over an hour, with registration opening in 10 minutes. You need to answer a question "about pokerstars" to get entry - but as the one running now has like, 16,000 entrants, I doubt it's a very tough question.
Only top 50 qualify for the tourney - but there are 4 per day, 1pm, 4pm, 7pm & 10pm (all GMT) and with 25 days to go before the big freeroll, that gives you 100 chances to qualify.

So today is the day that many will start grinding these freerolls for one of the tickets. I wonder how many entrants will be in most of them. The faster way of course is the deposit, for that ticket and you can always cash out.

The best way is to deposit $50 with the bonus code ULTIMATE - that will put you straight into the tourney.
Alternatively, you can deposit $10 with the bonus code SNG to be able to play a 6-max tourney (which is free to enter) where the winner qualifies. You can only play one of these a week, and must deposit another $10 to get another 6-max satellite ticket.
And without depositing, you can qualify by coming top 50 out of 15,000+ players in one of their Trivia Freerolls, which run 4 times a day. They are password protected, but the password is the answer to a rather simple (or easily goggleable) trivia question. ie In what year was Daniel Negreanu born?
------------ 1981 is the password for the next one, starting in little over half an hour.

to be honest i do not see any reason why you shouldn't deposit $50 and play the tourney for free (unless you have some legal problems, i.e. bank rejected loan, spent whole fortune on weed etc.). you are not obliged to do anything with your deposit- keep it sitting for a few days & withdraw back to your e-wallet.
I had money and deposited $50 with the code ULTIMATE and got the ticket. I would really like to make it to the final table in that one 1.st place $50.000 could really use that money. I have a lot of loans and they keep getting bigger because I spend to much money on poker So if you meet me in that tournament. Please be kind to me Good luck everyone, unless it´s against me
