i played one on sunday , the 3pm est , 14k runners, my AK got Beat by AQ he hit his Q, out in 105, thats the closest i've gotten to the top 50, also during the game a popup comes up and tells you what the top 50 get, that day it was a GoPro Camera worth around $150.00.

that was unlucky this guy playing K10 after a raise ( i assume ) and flops the nuts there is no way you could have put him on that hand but you had a chance at the turn and the river but sadly no full-house i have to agree it is pretty hard to get top 50 the best thing is if 888poker stop giving tickets to these tournaments so easily , so we can get smaller fields i have 22 tickets right now but i hoped i had just one in a small field tournament

Still, not bad of a run vic, sorry no pair came on turn or river for u to double up, after which it would have been easier to run even deeper, but theres always another one

You were unlucky there. As it seems this time someone else had Thenutz and not with 78 Anyway better luck on your next game. I hope you will hit the money at least

Well done Vic you seem to be having some good runs which is not easy in these freeroll tourneys with 14,000 players.I am always winning tickets and played my first last night though my whole touney seemed to always end in a shove fest.

Well dont mate at least you managed a good run some people never seems to get it going like me and all, but maybe you should have some review of your game and try to learn more on the late phase and you can improve more, but sometimes luck is not on your side and you will have to deal with it this is what poker life is, anyway good luck mate have fun at the tables hope you do well and make a lot of money cheers!

Vic.... Unlucky with that hand..... Probably the worst flop you could have seen with the possibilities that it creTes. It would be interesting to know what hand you had your opponent on to consider or review how you both played this hand. Better luck next time.

Yeah JJ is not an easy hand to win with, sometimes they are you best friend and other times your worst enemy. Unlucky not to hit a turn or river but well done on going deep.
