Well, something likes this always happens when a mobber is getting deep but yet to reach the final table. Good luck next time though, seems to me you are in the right mindset to eventually take one down in the future!

StheP...... Well done on your achievements, shame you didn't get further but you should be pleased with getting that far out of so many.... Really? You should be kicking yourself for not winning! Anyway, enjoy your $2.50 and use it on something useful...... Good luck in the rest of these freerolls to you and everyone else.

I lost at 210. position and won 0.90 $!played good after break,raised till 110000 chips and then on SB got A 8!two of us were in hand,flop was 8 8 6 and I checked that and player on BB!third player bet all in 20000,ofcourse I payed him!he show 9 9,turn nothing and on river he gets 9!come on,only card that he could win!ofcourse I was pissed off!so lost arround 40000 chips in that hand and after that didnt get any good card,blinds killed me and lost on that position!could do much better,but it wasnt my fault!today is next freeroll!
Well, considering the huge amount of donkeys and maniacs in these freerolls, these are pretty good results! It's not easy to play against people who can bluff at any time because they don't care about their chips. It's kind of like playing against pros except they don't know what they're doing

as I said a few posts above, this type of tournament you receive many calls with horrible hands. many players are simply trying their luck to double, triple, etc. so it is very difficult to survive in the beginning of the tournament.
