Yesterday there was an amazing event. In this freeroll is played by 5000 people and I somehow inconceivably took it 2nd place! Unfortunately I did not make a screenshot of this event but I think that you will believe me. Of course it will be a pity to stop in a step from the top but also 2nd place is good. (A win of $ 7.5 will now be money to play in the BRM freerolls)

Congrats,its not easy i know that! I think u can see in history finished tournament .
congratulations dude, this is not an easy task. Since this freeroll goes pretty fast and of course you have to slay some donks. This is quiet an impressive achievement and you probably had some nice hands. In total you would need $4 for the brm "freeroll", if you are going to do the rebuy and add-on, which I recommend to do, if you want to get some points for the leaderboard. GL with grinding russian brother!

Gratz four your good 2nd playe in the 888. freeroll! It was not easy in the first levels against a lot of maniacs, which going all in with every hand. But with a little bit luck and a good hand selection did you have a solid chance to reach a place itm.

My sincere congratulations go out to pajalnick for his runner-up finish! It takes a special dedication, perseverance, and some luck to maneuver through such a large field. Your achievement is certainly an invaluable incentive for us.

Pajalnik..... of course we believe you. Why wouldn't we. It's a great achievement to cash in these games in such a high position given how most people play these games. I will keep an eye out for you next time and see how you are doing. This are good promotions and long I hope they will last. Well done.

A very good position to finish of course. But for a second place the money seemed to me a bit low. Only 7.5 Anyway, congratulations for your finish. With 5000 players in, it was a great result.
Thank you all for congratulations ... and of course I have been madly lucky several times in this tournament and I certainly understand that in such tournaments to occupy a high place this is a largely random element ... lucky in general

There s no way reaching that high in a tournament unless you are being lucky. It is not possible. You can be the best player, getting beaten by others that suck, ending up hitting with their cards over and over again. You need that luck to get good results. Keep being lucky

Congratulations pajalnick a very good result you got a small sum of money but when you get to the upper level prizes are bigger, in this tournament is not only needed luck should have a lot of patience
I tried to do something like that every day and it happened only once ... this confirms the fact that in such tours it is possible to win this only with great luck and the right game at the very end of the tournament
I used to play these almost everyday, or atleast register and not play and usually made minimum cashes almost everytime. Now with the increasing player pool at 888poker it's become almost impossible to register into them.
And unless you finish top 5 they're just not worth the time invested (unless you're playing just for fun or to try to start a bankroll from scratch). Or if you're multi tabling you can play a couple of freerolls on the side
