So...First ten players on leaderboard are not active on forum. Not seen these guys on tournament. How many players are even not members of BB and play tourney trough facebook password every day?

You can only see members in the leader boards. If you havent registered your nickname, you cant participate. Some of them, are only here for this only i guess. I agree also that most of the players in these players are not members here.

Both of them can be true But as along as we are talking about money, that goes only for the money won in tournaments of course and not from leader boards. From another point of view the less players participating in the board, the easier it is to hit a top finish

today I had more time and played for maybe first time this month!played good,had nice number of chips,but on what people pay and how they hit cards at this freeroll and ofcourse lost on good cards!love how people on start play every hand all in and if they hit good,if not again ok,its freeroll,but they win 5,6 hands in row and they are on 15000 in few minutes!
I had another min cash today folded AQ suited to make the money then had to shove with JJ was up against AQ and 1010 the Ace hit and out five more tournaments left with 3 points away from top 30 hopefully some final tables yet to come GL.

I thought only members can play this leaderboard tourneys and earn prize money. But the prize pool from the leaderboard is only for members and i think that is totally ok. Let the battle going on

It's all relative in terms of who plays and who gets what. Do we really mind non members playing the game, cos people share the password? I'm not entirly sure I do mind. In essence the more non members who play the games make the leaderboard more reflective of reality as each player is up against a wider range of players and hitting top spot shows more skill to beat off the non members and hit the top of the leaderboard for their efforts.
I think we should carefully draw the distinction between members and forum regulars. It's not a forum regular promo. It's a BRM member promo and therefore anyone who is a member can register for the leaderboard.
I am sure BRM don't wholly mind cos the more people that become aware of BRM, the more members there will be and the more promos there will be. So overall it's a win win situation for all of us.
Good luck to you all for the last few days of the promo. Over the last few days I hit a couple of bad..... Only teasing SBEP...... Great to see you doing so well.... I always look out for you when playing.

You dont mind lol? That a nice joke there. And what an explanation about the non brm members there I thought that everyone plays to win, but it seems you are just after some competition. Cause it is not hard to understand, that the less players are participating the more chances you have to win.
Chances are if there is also a good luck. I am run over the 3rd day in a row by J7c, Kc9h, and simply 22. Hour of game passes, and here for the 2nd hour there are funny things. maybe it is worth coming with late registration...)

Totally misunderstood as usual! It would be really helpful to take the whole post as one, rather than isolating one small aspect of it and ripping that apart. As for winning, the non members are also trying to win, that is why the competition is better. Stop moaning about things you can do nothing about and play better poker!

That's exactly what I had with my nutts.. a lot. normal pokergames you expect people to play to win, this however can be one huge bingo limp fest

They are not called donks for no reason. Wouldnt you call this player one? The suited 8 was enough i guess to call your all in, for a wild chase of a straight or a flash. And like most of the times the unexpected happened, hitting the flush out of nowhere
