nice going, i have played only 1 multi table on paradise apart from freerolls.I hate the rebuy's i entered a $10 mutli table rebuy, this was by far the most hardest and taxing tourney i ever played.After 3 hours i came in the money and doubled up.But i was well pissed when i saw 1 guy rebuy 4 times at my table and another 3 times.

Rambling off the point a bit as usual
sorry lol

Hi - I played the Big Buck too and didn't do as well. Congrats! I just added money to several sites and will try to win some money at the real money tables. I am a bit frustrated with the freerolls myself. Today someone played a 3 / 5 offsuit and beat my painted trips -- couldn't even believe he played those cards. He wasn't even on the blinds. Its frustrating.

robwhufc,

Good going. I made 1st the other week in a smaller freeroll. But, It was pretty thrilling.

Nick had to put me in my place so I stopped rubbing it in.

Guess I got a little carried away.

Glad you decided to stay with poker. It has it's ups and downs.

In the end you can only hope more ups than downs. LOL

31st in the small morning Big Buck this morning. A little less than 500 people. Closest I've come on the big afternoon Big Buck is 70th. Just got flamed in the Sun. Flopped an Ace high flush with my J8H in play. Someone had K2. The odds of someone holding a KH or QH + another heart are astronomical.

Definetly even playin on absolute putting up .25 cents for a tourny pays better then the freeroll and your chances are better. Only thing is freeroll your not risking anything but wasted time. but then again whats risking a quarter i mean you probl throw em in a fountain now and then

gr8, good on ya, and by the way, dont give up poker if ya that good lol.

i liked the quote from max barry. i agree that it may be luck to win one of those big tourneys but takes skill to consistently finish in the money
