The 2700 player freerolls are a waste of time.
What you want to do is get onto the play chip side of the house and get yourself a few million chips. This can be easily accomplished in less than a week if your treat them like real money and play accordingly.
Then you go and play the DAILY 500K Play Chip $40 Freeroll found in the play chip tournament lobby at 20:40 (8:40pm EST).
Top 18 paid, First gets $5, Second gets $3, everyone else gets $2.
There's rarely more than 50 people playing.
Cash 5 times you have $10-25 to start playing with.
To give yourself a big boost to your starting play chip balance, follow these steps:
Play chip starting balance = 1000
First, register for 4 250 playchip SNGs.
Open cashier and reload playchips.
Unregister from all SNGs.
Wait 5 minutes.
Register for a 2000 playchip SNG.
Reload playchips.
Unregister from SNG.
Wait 5 minutes.
Register for a 2000 and 4 250 playchip SNGs.
Reload playchips.
Unregister from SNG.
Wait 5 minutes.
Register for 2 2000 playchip SNGs.
Blah blah blah......
When you get bored of doing that, you'll have a nice starting playchip bankroll to work with, so go build it.
It's a lot easier when you can start out with 10K-plus.

Really interesting, I didn't know and I thank you. My english is noto so good as I Wanted to, so can you explain in a different way the second part of your post, please ?
Sorry I did a bit effort more and I understood what you were saying.
But it's a trick !!!
Are you sure that it is so easy to get addictional playmoney without playing any tournament or sit'n go ?

I can't really explain the second part any easier than I have, but it does work. Full Tilt will refill your play chip balance if your money is tied up in tournaments, but not ring games.
Well, the times where only 50 played the tourney will be over now after this post...
And it sounds like a lot of work for some measily dollars. Instead of joining/unjoining play money Sit&Gos and then playing about 5 or 10 tourneys I would rather go to work for 3 hours and then deposit $50 ! much faster..Much easier...

Yeah, well, for people like you and I that can and do deposit, this is irrelevant, but the majority of online players either can't or won't deposit.

Well, i don´t think that the majority of online players either can't deposit. Really you don´t need 50$ to start, u can start with 10$ and, if u are a good player u should be able to win at small tournaments and become that 10$ in 50$ faster than get 500k play money chips, right? Maybe i´m wrong, i´m not sure about how much time it´s spend to get 500k play money chips.

Uh...actually, yes, more than half of all online players on any given poker site are playchip/freeroll players.
As for the deposit issues, try moving to the USA and see how easy it is to do.
To get 500K in play chips is easy to do if you treat them like real money and play accordingly instead of going all in every hand with 72os like most freerollers do.

RIPStuNov22, cool it man lol. Don't take what every writes so personal.
Good tips, are there tournaments like that for party poker chips? I have 5mill laying around. I sold 15mill pokerstars chips for $150, that's how I got my first bankroll started.
