Whoooohooooo!!!! I won baby yeah!
When the Duck Poker leader board was last updated (2nd Jan) I placed 38th, $3 away from the top 30. I devoted myself to only playing the Duck freerolls with my goal set on making it into the top 30 I knew I only needed to make it in the money a few more times to catch up but a win ($5.57) would be so much sweeter.
Lo and behold I bust out early in every single one of the 39 (give or take I might've missed one or two) remaining BRM freerolls hosted at Duck until the very last and final opportunity came along. This time I had an excellent run and managed to win collecting the first prize. Yeah!! Lets hope it is enough to accomplish my goal and still make it into the top 30. Crossing fingers...
Thank you to BRM the learning experience alone was priceless and I am forever in your debt. Thank you to Duck poker for the facilities and sponsorship. Finally to all my fellow DUCK leader board contenders a big thank you for making life hell at the tables , see you all at the top 200 final.

Wish you a GL with your aim of TOP30 or better With you it was often difficult to play at the same table! And the few times you sent me into the knockout tournaments in the BRM! Good Luck!

Good job guys. Nice playing. I got only 13th place i think, but i have 3 weeks that i didn't played
Anyone know if the money from leaderboard need to make points in order to cash out? Or if you win in the 100 doors tourney? Because i think it shouldn't apply as freeroll winning.

Hello. I played many tournaments on duckpoker but I was wrong username and did not have counted points gained. I won at least two tournaments first. I want to know if you can change something that is yes it can give the following points. nickname from duckpoker is inoc3nt
Congratulations to all the winners of the leaderboard! Can't believe Michael_sm took first place in the end, cracking kings with 1010 in a 3 way all in pot on a final table like 3-4 days ago. He was like 30$ behind me a month ago Good thing I binked one in the end to secure 3rd spot. Like many others I couldn't play all tournaments during holiday times, and those I played I didn't really have time to play so I couldn't play my game (requires too much time/patience).
The bingo gods have decided, Michael is the Bingo king! Just kidding, your patience has been rewarded, I've seen you min cash so many times... I didn't care about min cashes much but I guess in the long run they really make a difference. (but yeah first was like 27x more than a min cash so I always went for the win)
Anybody knows how to register to the top 200 1000$ freeroll? If they register us it's gonna be full of inactive players I bet. They should let players register themselves IMO.

why self register? Nor pokerstar , nor full tilt let you self register And if there are innactive players what? it's better for you. You will be against another 1-7 players, not 8 all the time. ( assuming there will be olny one innactive player at the table ).
@Inoc3nt I don't think BRM can do something about this. They said it, check your username before register. You register a wrong name, ok. But in all that time, you didn't watched a single time if you're in that leaderboard? On what place? And if you watched and didn't saw your name in that leaderboard, couldn't ask yourself "why am i not in this leaderboard?"
I'm sorry for you, but in all that time you could've have checked at least once your name and see if it's wrong or not.
P.S.: Congratz michael on your 1st place. Did you made enough points ?
I made it to 12 place , i wish i wouldn't have it, because i have 55.19 points , and now i have to make another 30 points in order to cash out. 55.19 will be consider on duck poker as 60 .... And i don't understand why should we make another 100 points just because we are from BRM.
Playing against inactive players is boring and unfair for people who don't have inactive players sitting at their table. It ruins the fun, and adds randomness to a game that already has enough of it

I checked and I also sent an email but that by December end. I was not cleared up with a clear answer. I scored with my username that I logam the Duck did not even crossed my user you have to go to the game table. the thing is that I have trouble with English and I did not understand exactly. Only in January we changed the user and there was no time to do very few points I gathered. of this wonder can change something. anyway no big loss not participate in that tournament have gathered enough dollars out

I remember that hand...in the end I win that tourney with 80k vs 200k on heads-up. I was on $18 behind u and TesaKing! $18 is a max!
I played on 69% of all BRM tourney amount )

Ha-ha, good joke! You probably know better than anyone that on BRM tournaments I don't play bingo. Sometimes on freerolls, but not in BRM!
and about min cashes! my main goal I set - hit the min cashes. only when players become 36, 27 or 18 I started to make plans about winning and started to play more loose, lowering range! And it has brought me success! I won ONLY SEVEN (7) tournaments ~ 40 bucks! Two second places ~ 6 bucks! Three third places ~ 6 bucks!
min cashes like 0.27 or 0.41 for 10-27 places (or 18/36) amount ~22% of all my points!
lol wow that is probably what made you win in the end!
I've made it to so many final tables but really if you dont finish in top 3 it's almost like a min cash
Congrats again, I think your patience really paid off, and patience is really important in MTTs. You can't just steamroll your way to victory everytime How do you know all these stats? You wrote them down? I would like to know what % of my wins are min cashes too ^^
