Unfortunately so. I think the end of the promotion was January 9th.

GL on the Daily Dollar though!

I didn't got any tickets! I played SNG and won a couple but noooo, FT randomness wouldn't choose me!

#9 13th January 2011, 12:41 PM

There were two promotions going on:

1) Buy any item in the FTP store with points between January ? - January 9th. You get entry to the $50k holiday freeroll.

2) Win 3 SNG's between January 7th - January 9th (4:00pm EST). You get entry into the $75k SNG madness freeroll.

If you won a couple (ie, two) SNG between the 7th and 9th, it was not enough to get entry to the freeroll. If you did not buy anything from the FTP store before January 9th, you did not receive a ticket.

It wasn't a random promotion.

gl to all in, somebody take this thing down

#15 16th January 2011, 7:57 PM

Sitting on 5k at break. Had a shover every other hand shove my BB when I had 66 so I took the risk, and A5 decided to call as well, and I held up. Picked up a few other pots. Just waiting for my cooler...

#16 16th January 2011, 8:02 PM

Just lost half my chips with KKK when he hit 4 cards to a flush on the river. Still in though!

#17 16th January 2011, 8:04 PM

still in

4K chippies

#18 16th January 2011, 8:30 PM

le sigh.

came late, was at a table full of sitters when I joined.

Only one other person playing at the table with me. He had about 6x my stack so I had to let him steal almost every blind. Worked my way up to about 6,000 chips from his sloppy overagressive play, equalling about 1/2 his stack.

Get QQ from MP, reraise his UTG minraise to 10xBB. Flop comes 46T rainbow. Check to me, I bet 4/5 pot, he minraises, I 3-bet shove. He calls, shows TJo. Another ten falls on the river to knock me out.

Good luck to anyone still in this donkfest!

#19 16th January 2011, 8:44 PM

Im out...busted out of three diff tourneys today the same way...My best hand after the flop and getting it all in to someone calling with a 4 card flush and hitting it. Went a/i when I hit my kicker w/ A/9 guy who called had 4/6 and a 4 card flush.

#20 16th January 2011, 8:48 PM

I was playing that tournament too.
Busted after a bit more than an hour in the game.
Had 44 and hit my set on the flop. Unfortunately I saw myself beaten at the river when he hit his flush. He missed the turn, as I remember and then 2h came at the river and gave him flush.

Busted, and $0 again.
Not a good period for me on FTP.

Hope you all do well in it!

#21 16th January 2011, 8:53 PM

Eugh, 2 great freerolls this weekend and $0 profit. Hate it.

It is indeed depressing!
Hopefully I'll get out of this flow of "luck" and start cashing. Just a little bit!
I won't ask for much, just a ITM finish. It has been a while since I had one.

#23 16th January 2011, 9:03 PM

Still in it. 81 out of 231. 5 bigger stacks at my table and 3 more about the same. Gonna need some (more) luck...

All the same, I'm pretty amazed to still be here. Such a mammoth field.

Oops -- took a big hit first hand of the hour. Still in but hurt.

And out with $35. Not awful.

Spidey, nice going! I hope you're still in it and can go deep again. Final table would be awesome.

#35 17th January 2011, 8:01 AM

Meh, you probably didn't miss much tbh. The field was 16,000+... a LOT of landmines to dodge.
