Had a great run going in the 9pm running of this tourney and ended up finishing 42nd overall for a payout of 2.52$. i know that's not a big number but seeing that I've been running quite badly as of late and had a bankroll of only 8 cents in my account this will certainly help out.
Anyone else play these for bankroll building? i find them quite easy to cash in when I can actually remember to register for them.
Anyways boys and girls good luck on the tables and may the Poker Gods be with you.
TheIrish out!

It's usually pretty hard work to achieve a payout in these VIP 100k games so I think you did pretty well. It's a nice boost to your bankroll. Make sure you use it all wisely and try and increase your bankroll. Good luck as time goes on and maybe see you at the tables soon.

... < NICE goin' their Eiro-Dood...!!! NO easy task getting THAT deep...! I've gone JUST slightly deeper before for about a $3.25 win.... LOTS of work for not a BIG payout,...but worth it playing them on the side...! I play all 3 per day usually,...just keeps a little $$$ comin' this way...!
I did and finished 3rd place amongst 21700 players for 90$ and 25th place once which i coulded won if i went all in right away but as a chip leader i pushed the chips in the pot and river f..k it up for me. I find them quite good 2 but best is to play them when theres not manny players at night before dawn - then the prize pool is much bigger. Grats on 42nd place

yeah i do play these 100k freerolls for my bankroll building. easy money, i make around 8 dollaros a month which is more or less what i spend of a beachfront villa rent and private chef for month in my current residence at the gorgeous malawi. happy to see other mobbits doing well in them as well.
I've played quite a lot of these. The thing I've found with the 100k free roll is the extremely irritating way that a lot of people tank their time bank for no reason. It completely slows the game down. I've gone deep a lot and for spending at least 4 hours on a tournament for a couple of dollars isnt really worth it, no offense.

well yeah coinflip is kinda right and also wrong on those pesky 100k's. time bank tanking is actually very good until you get in the money, just do a double up once and voila- you have some cents in your account if you join the time tankers army... later on it makes game too slow and return on time invested usually not worthwhile.

it is indeed a nice tournament for someone who would want to build a bankroll i have been playing a lot lately they are nice but you have to accept the variance in these big field tournaments .. i don't remember making a final table in one of these but i am sure i made a deep run couple of times but like all tournaments the big bucks are in the top
< NICE goin' their Eiro-Dood...!!! 
So many players it's so hard)
