Well this thing today is funny that i cant belive!!! 130 minutes before freeroll is started password is on all sites and almost 200 people are already registered and ofc password will be published here about in 2 hours .... Still cant stop laugh
I wonder who can leak a password before it's even released... Bankrollmob staff or 888poker staff Im guessing?
It's pretty weird. But I think this type of stuff will always happen if the tournaments aren't technically restricted to BRM members who created their account via a BRM link... Or atleast leaderboard/BRM members only. A password shouldn't be the only thing keeping the invaders out.

Any chance that it was an old password that is used again? Or someone guess it It has happened in the past too in other sites, but it is not a regular thing. So dont expect to see this in daily basis.

I would take a couple (or more if necessary) of tournament lobby screenshots that include a list of pre-registered players. I would also look up where these parasitic players are coming from. They shouldn't expect to get away with it forever.

it is certainly very unfair ... not only that they do not play from the BRM and just seeing where the password so that the password is stored in the public domain long before the officially announcement on BRM .. very strange and unpleasant situation

I play only the free roll tournaments, I can say that on many poker sites the same situation, password know a lot of people, a lot of tournaments where had 100 players these days have 1,000 players, I do not know whether it is accidental or not, I see a lot of players with similar user name, I think those are the players with several user name play with different computers, they must be connected between themselves,It is my opinion does not have to be true

And now there are already 650 registered, half an hour before the start. I have to wait another 15 Min for the password to be released and there is a limit of 1000 player for the tourney. Thats ridicoulus.
Then stop yammering about this and just use the password from one of those thief sites you guys keep mentioning if you really afraid that you miss the cut-off limit. This will keep happening since BRM keep using easily guessable passwords and re-use old ones. They are not really care neither should you.

Of course ... of course that's just one problem: can you help me? I do not know any of these sites that steal the password. if you know what to do good to all, and write where to get the password for an hour before the tournament

... < ...Happens everyday I've noticed,...just gotta get in earlier than usual I guess...!
... < ...It's a tourney you don't want to miss because the prize money on the leaderboard is bigger than usual,...which makes it very worthwhile pursueing,....BUT...
... < ...only problem with THESE games is that they are full of password scrounging donks who play like complete A$$holes like in this hand I got knocked out with...! The moron throws down a HUGE preflop bet,...turns out to be only him an I,...so I shoved,....then he called with his f'n garbage...

nobody has an explanation for this situation Not fair to the players who have registered for the leaderboard, who won the points, how to extend that winning points when there are so many donkey general why so many players apply when they do not want to play poker, they play just all in
Yesterday I saw when he opened 888freeroll that is already registered 450 people ... and it was an hour before the start of the tournament .. knowing that you can simply do not have time to sign up and enter the number of 1,000 players, I began to search for the password on foreign sites ... I was surprised to find password facebook and on another site ... and it's only two places I looked ...

its strange that we dont have a single word from BRM stuff and that somebody explain to us whats happening!its not normal that this happening and that tournament is full before we on BRM get password!they must do something with this!maybe somebody from 888 put password somewhere!

I saw on twitter that there are people and some poker sites that advertise passwords for many tournaments, I do not know how they manage to collect passwords, but really is not fair, many people have registered in the tournament but not members of BankrollMob

when BRM freerolls held on FullTilt was also a large number of strangers ... I will not hide that I myself was one of them ... because of these freerolls, and I learned about the BRM and register here ... and then I saw in the study of this site More different options and bonuses ... but then laid out the password for 15 minutes before the start anywhere before this time the password was not

it is good that you admit that you were one of those strangers who have played the free roll tournaments , I do not mind that there are many such players in tournaments, it bothers me their style of play in tournaments, I know there are a lot of players from Russia, most of them do not play poker more bingo all in,all in,all in............
