I sent a mail to Duck Poker telling them that their article 5.3 of the terms and conditions concerning freeroll winning was not acceptable to me and ask them to close my account and keep the little winning that i had in the account. Wont loose anymor time playing there.
And nex time i ask BRM for a gift to go on a site be sure i will read their terms and conditions first.

i just read it, if you make 5$ you must make 30 tournament points, or how it is called... It seems ok to me, just meke it run thru your hands... on stars is same with deposit bonuses... you must let them thru rake...

This is not deposit bonus its winnings from freeroll. Winning BRM freeroll on stars no conditions money is yours
This is my opinion peoples that are OK with this i have no problem with that and i wish them good luck.
It makes winning and cashing out harder for sure, but not impossible. Like I said in other posts, you have to win in cash games or win more $ from GTD tournaments/sngs to make more points/cash. Think long term, and don't risk a big % of your bankroll in 1 session. I have made almost 350 points now enough to clear 50$ in freeroll winnings wich is more than I have made so far.
My cashout status is still "pending" btw, I requested it 3 days ago... We'll see. I got my BR back up to 56$ already and I only kept 4$ when I cashed out. (but I have tons of tournament bucks)

Very smart move. Duck might want you to stay a while.
This sort of site can be appealing to those who can give up 10 or more hours a day every day just to sit in front of the computer grinding lunch money or whatever. Absolutely not an ideal place or a suitable option for people with ordinary life.
Must be hell of a fun, yeah, sure.

I agree whole heartly with Tony, As i sent them an Email stating they need to change quiet a few things or they will just be another room that comes and goes. Players you only have to look at how their pay table is in the GTD. And example would be the GTD $10 entry $0.25 with 20 players, it pay to 8th with only 20 people in it. so you work hard at and collect $1.30 for winning the tournament. What a complete waste of time.
