How long does the $1000 Weekly FT freeroll take?

I mean the game you have to win entry into in the Round1 freerolls. Somebody must have either got far or watched to know this?

Looks like just under 4 hours for the qualifiers.
Start: 14:43
Finish: 18:23

I'm slow thought that's what you meant at first. Someone will have to answer how long the main thing takes.

Right, about 4 hours, could be less if you have enough of a chip stack to sit out and still make the top 250.

The main event was about 5 hours to make the money, but I'm not sure now that it is a turbo how long it will take.

Hey guys

You misread my post, I mean the actual $1000 freeroll after you have qualified through from the round 1 freeroll. 30.000 people but I dont think it fills up, Oh well il just have to have a day off work if I get realy far in it.

Its a turbo, every five minutes the blinds go up, still takes a hell of a long time, takes about 5-6 hours.

I qualified for it first attempt but didnt last very long in the actual weekly $1000. I havent bothered with it again.

4 hours to qualify
5+ hours to cash
For a $1000 freeroll with a huge field 30k. I reached the conclusion - Its not worth the time.

I've qualified twice, first i went out in like 18,000th, and second time i went out in like 8000th... with only 90 players cashing it really doesn't seem worth it at all. Not sure how long it takes to even get ITM.
