I just binked the BRM freeroll on full tilt for $6 (1st of 783). It's the 3rd time I've won a MTT but the first time a BRM sponsored freeroll (came in 2nd once on a Party Poker BRM freeroll).
Feels great!
I lost almost my complete stack twice. Once in one of the first hands on the final table where my AK was beaten by AA. Then someone was asking for the password for the next one, and two people gave it to him. I pointed out to them you could just join BRM...
I'm glad I was able to come back and beat those thieves...

Excellent....!!! Especially after coming back from a final table hard hit on the stack!
I've never pulled off a first place in tourney play before,...that would be a thrill...! Won lots of 6 player SnGs,...but that's different.
I got a 2nd the other day in one of the new FT/BrM tourneys,....that was a blast,...but I gave up an 800,000+ chip stack lead to the 2nd place guy's 100,000+ stack. I could taste the win, but it wasn't to be...
So far I have 5.16 in leaderboard points, and $5.16 added to my FT bankroll!
I've noticed that every day more and more folks are entering those,...and the number of bingo queen boneheads keeps rising too...
I see they are now publishing the password on one of those facebook pages... Just Great,....that'll bring all the facebook freeroller A-Holes...

Posted by IceQueenAce: Good work mate, nice to see a regular take these down,
Thanks, I don't think many of the regulars play these, or maybe I just don't recognize them when they use different screen names... I only saw Demodawggy and yblod so far.
Posted by bullettooth1: nice one buddy! some nice points towards the leaderboard too!
Who knows; it's a good start, but I don't have enough time to compete for it, probably. If I make an effort, maybe I could play 40% of them...

I know how you feel, it happened to me too a few times... I noticed we were at the same table at both tournaments at one point. I didn't say hi, because I don't chat much while playing (in fact my objection at the final table about passwords being given, was the first thing I wrote in months...).

Thanks mate! I'm doing okay at full tilt. I started in January with $100 from MobPoints, and currently my bankroll is at about $325, from playing freerolls and 6-max NL2 cash games. I should have moved up the levels months ago, but I keep procrastinating.

epic performance there marqis, dropping my interest in justin bieber to name you as my new official hero then again i must admit i would be more impressed if that was a BRM freeroll on stars- those are real donkfests, the ones @fulltilt seem somewhat better (and have a smaller crowd too).

Agreed, I only played a few of them on stars, but did not enjoy them very much. The full tilt ones are way better, much like the ones on Party Poker a while back.
