Fulltilt road to main event(WSOP) freerolls

#1 11th March 2009, 9:08 PM

There are two different ones the .com and .net. One with like450 players and one with like250 players. My numbers could me a bit off.
But I was attempting to join last night and I was on a fast Internet connection but I would not get the register button. I'm fairly sure it was the laptop I was on as it's a bit slow. Now I'm going home tonight to try again. My PC is fast but my Internet sucks at home(LoL I can't win). Anyone else have trouble or no trouble? Let me know please!

Also... These are in the sitngo section and are ran ever 5to10 minutes. I'm guessing it's a marathon of freerolls to another satelite to the main event. Tough work but still... Freeroll to wsop main event... Very nice. I'm posting from my phone right now so when I get home I'll copy n paste some info from the fulltilt site

Ive tried both of the freeroll types. Played only two, and with more playwers came to 21th place wining only on bad cards like 3 7. Every time i placed bet with some pocket or A k or alike lost from no cards. My advice, the worse pocket cards, place bigger bet. I lost all chips on pocket A`s....

it's another lottery game. i've played 2 of each .com .net and there's an all-in almost every hand.
just look at the time the tourny is scheduled and when it's within a minute of open keep clicking where the button will be when reg opens and you'll get in.

Yes,I have the same problem but for me is very hilarious because I can't close the eyes for a few seconds because when I open my eyes the tournaments are completely full

Hahaha a lottery to even get in before the real lottery starts, awesome...
I'm gonna give them a shot tonight, and by the sound of it with all ins everyhand sounds easy enough to build a chip stack playing solid poker. Freeroll or not I would love to play in the main event free of charge so I'll play in as many as I can

Made two final tables last night, no luck on top two though. I'll try again soon. But the way I unserstood the challenge is that you only need to win 3 freerolls for a completely free main event seat. Pretty sweet deal. Tough, but awesome for the lucky people to make it.

Not freeroll, but just for your info (and for other people who prefer sit ang go-s):
Ultimatebet has this (http://www.ultimatebet.com/poker-pro...ents-ten-steps) promotion now. If you are lucky enough you can reach the wsop main event AND Aruba for just 10cents. 10steps, minimum the top3 pays. Check it out if you're interested. Yeah it's 10cents, not a freeroll, but I think this is more inviting than the "you can win a seat for free, just finish first from 2350 in a MTT..."
Good luck!

Sounds good, haven't played on UB in a long time, might check em out

good luck to those playing! Hope a CC player wins.

#11 12th March 2009, 5:12 PM

I have played several of both finishing in the top 5 a few times. They are a mad house and all u can do is play ur game, hopefully agg. and always have another one open ready to go. Once u hit a big stack sit back and play smart. GL to all giving them a go its alot of fun if u dont get to wound up over stupid plays.

#12 13th March 2009, 2:07 AM

Good luck! I'm going to try these.

#13 13th March 2009, 3:00 AM

I wish you could get points for unregistering like the PAD freerolls. Oh well.

#14 13th March 2009, 3:06 AM

...and then got knocked out of the next level in 10 minutes...oh well.

#15 13th March 2009, 3:36 AM

Thanx for the info. Sitting here waiting for the "Register" Button....hold thumbs!

#16 13th March 2009, 3:42 AM

So heres the trick....pull the tournament lobby slightly to the side so that you can see the clock in the main lobby then when its a few seconds away from the registration button to appear start clicking like mad in the spot where the button will appear...worked for me! Now just to work my way through the donks.....lol...

#17 13th March 2009, 5:19 AM

Freakin got 3rd in the one that gives top two a round two entry, sweet! I give up lol

#18 14th March 2009, 12:35 PM

I dont have that kind of problem but it's probably ur connection that is bad

#19 15th March 2009, 3:26 PM

6 final tables since these started (ok, thats from like 100 games!). Never got the 1st or 2nd yet. Came close in my first one, AJ (me) against 10 J with 5 left and the 10's won it!
I'll keep trying as long as Tilt runs the free ones. Not as many fools in these as you cant bank the points, so its 225 players in the first, around 400 in round 2 and havn't seen a final yet. Freeroll all the way though, no buying into a final for the pro's, so the games should be mid-difficulty, not near impossible to cash like the Poker After Dark! Plus, there are 50 free places given out! 2 a week I think. Sounds good to me. Good luck all!

#20 16th March 2009, 7:49 PM

I still get in to any one of them. It gets filled up too fricken fast.
maybe I should try the wsop freerolls on a smaller site

#21 17th March 2009, 3:58 AM

They fill up incredibly fast, but run every 5 mins or so. Catch an all in shove from a donk in the first couple rounds and you can coast. Sure, it is a land mine filled donk fest, but maybe you can win. Someone has to get lucky, might as well be one of us CCers

#22 17th March 2009, 6:48 PM

Under SNGs on Full Tilt. Started March 9th.

I managed to get to third place in a couple of the round 1 games but have yet to get into round 2. I started playing the step tournaments on Ultimate Bet and bought in for 10 cents. I am playing step 1 again after placing 4th. What do you guys think about either way to get to the WSOP using both sites? What are some opinions everybody has of one versus the other?

#24 23rd March 2009, 8:55 AM

i like these, for freerolls you could not really ask for a better prize. i just think its a little weird that the 450 ones only 1st place gets a prize but tthe one with like225 gives the top 2 a ticket. could be just real high but wouldent common sense tell you that it should be the other way around. either way would be nice to win a trip and play for free in the world series

#25 24th March 2009, 1:43 PM

I play alot of these. There is kinda alot of donks to handle but if you just play your basic game you can make it deep. I came in 3rd 2 times in a row. I lost to J Rag os both times when i had AKs. Thats always a bummer. So you never know how far the donks make it so be careful.

#26 24th March 2009, 2:18 PM

verry good, I want to go it, that winner the best

The 450 ones are shared with FullTilt.net ,there play money only site. That is why they only give out 1 prize. The 250 ones are only on Fulltilt.com, the real money site. There just giving people who play with real money a better chance.

#28 22nd April 2009, 6:27 PM

I've placed top 2 three times in these, but my best finish is 21 in Step 2. I'll keep trying, however.

BTW, step 2 at least doesn't seem to be nearly the donkfest that step 1 is.

#29 22nd April 2009, 6:56 PM

If you can find a way to accumulate 3,000 Full Tilt Points in a week then you get an automatic entry to the main event races that are held every sunday at like 16:00 GMT or so. I think I have 4 entries to the finals, but I haven't been able to use any yet.

#30 2nd May 2009, 9:34 PM

i have just recently started playing these. sit back, wait for big hands and push... don't play a hand that you're not willing to go all in and don't bother with sophisticated moves.... i tried a few times when i was at 10BB to push with weaker cards and u just get called by all the big stacks. so just wait for premium. I usually always make the top 10% but so far haven't moved on to step 2. In the .net... half the field is out within 2 levels so its just not worth risking weaker hands.
