I am sick to death of these freeloading morons in the BRM freerolls, it isn't about the prize pool, it isn't about how they're doing the wrong thing to enter the game it's about the way the play. The thing that pisses me off the most is that these morons come into OUR game with no respect, push every hand for 30 minutes and completely ruin the game, it's literally unplayable, you will sit there and wait for a monster to call these disrespectful f#*kwits with and call there bingo all in with AK and get beat by 4,9 off, it's a joke they have no idea how to play post flop poker (or preflop for that matter) if they hit they shove, if they didn't they shove, if they have any ace/picture card preflop they shove and when they have complete s**t they shove, why can't anything be done about this? There has to be a solution, is there a way for BRM to setup a system between FT and stars so that you have to get the password from here as you usually do, go to stars/FT and when entering the password a little pop up will come up but instead of having just the password, you have to enter you BRM username and password and then the freeroll password, this will keep all the freeloaders out? Is anything like this possible it sounds like an easy fix if you do it that way.

i couldnt agee with you more, these idiots do not want to play a nice game of poker they just want to spoil it for everyone else. the idea of playing these games for me is to have a nice carefree few hours playing poker and trying to play the right way.

I.m not so pissed off on them at the begining because i just learn that they just exist. But when after an hour or so I'M having a decent amount of chips, getting a monster hand, an idiot is pushing all in, i'm paying him smilling seeing his offsuited 9 6, and of course his pulling 2 pairs. .
Untill the ticket will be implemented we just have to deal with Bingo players!!!!

I totally agree with you and the subject of tickets has been mentioned before but there seem to be a reluctance to implement this..........ADMIN !!!!!
I suppose the only thing others will say is that it is easy to play muppets like this as opposed to good players. - Trust me that is what they will say you see, although that does not help with the frustration they cause
I also find it frustrating but i stopped playing them some time ago. Freerolls are always filled with fish but most of them will be eliminated in the early stages of the game, the best thing to remember when playing is never bluff a fish.
Just be very tight in the beginning and only play top hands because blinds don't really hurt yet and there is no reason to go crazy yet. Keep playing and don't give up

For a perfect example I just entered the BRM freeroll and was hoping some moron would push his rag hand seeing as I woke up with AK suited first hand, as they do there's about 3 all ins so I call obviously, I come up against A-rag KQ and K6, I'm in fantastic shape, I have every single player dominated, typical for K6 to get a runner runner 1 card straight though, what an absolutel joke, I can't even play a BRM freeroll without these morons who aren't even aloud in the events ruining it for me and everybody else for that matter.

It is not easy to handle it in the first Levels. But after certainly 30 minuts the most of the maniacs are out (or chipleader ) and you can start to Play some Hands. Play only AA, KK AKs in the first Levels and you see the donks are gone.

Hmm well it is a freerolls and you will have to deal with it because basically it is free money and they just play as their mood dictates.
Better than playmoney right where the plays are crazier, if you want good poker, play on a higher buy in amount and do not play on rebuys where crazy s**t happens. Also it is an advantage if they play crazy, just value town them, make notes on how they play and if they are willing to stack off with a gutshot on the flop, then you can adjust accordingly.

I hear ya dude.... The thing that put ME over the edge in these BrM freerolls is when I discovered all the cheating cockroaches with multiple accounts nearly a year ago. I always more or less accepted all the idiot play in them,...but when I first noticed ALL the multiples....I was PISSED!!! And like you say,....they're just a bunch of assholes who don't care if they ruin the games.... It's all about them!
PokerStars is REALLY failing on this one. You don't see all the multiple accounts on other sites for some reason or other,...but when I question PokerStars about the issue,....they just TOTALLY ignore me. No answers,...no replies...

I think the fact that these freerolls are pure bingo fests is multiple, firstly they are freerolls, secondly anyone can join since they find the pass on all social network sites...
The solution is pretty simple: you deposit or since you are a member of BRM you can always take a no deposit bonus

What can be done? Anything? Sometimes in life we put up with cr@p for so long until it stops being acceptable any more, but seriously needs someone to take the lead. PS isnt going to take any notice of comments posted in here and I dont suppose they care too much about the things you complain about as long as they make money....wouldnt you do that? Of course not, you'd want to service your customers properly, but then I dont see droves of peopel leaving PS so they must overall be doing something right and this is just little fishes to them.

wooooooooooooooooooooooow ) cant belive what i'm reading )) stay on that course! But i want to say to Benjicleo not to disapoint himself because in that freerolls you can found 10000 (DONKEY FISHESH) say how u want. But i suggest you when you are in that freeroll to play only good hands , and u can reach final table.

I have come up with a new strategy for playing these tourneys..... Just repeatedly shove ANYTHING and EVERYTHING regardless of what it is until you are either OUT,...or big stacked....
Preflop it's all a coin-flip, and anybody can win... You will lose MOST of the time,...but occassionally things will go your way and you will kill it...! You only need to make a few final tables in order to get into the money at one level or another.

Boo fucking hoo.
Its a freeroll, stop playing it like its the WSOP Main Event - and you know how they play so why get angry when it keeps happening? THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS.
