Play Money at Fulltilt

Hey

Iv gone broke with my bankroll and was wondering if anyone has played for play money on Fulltilt?
There is a game for 500.000 play chips but its a $40 freeroll !
Has anybody ever bothered building there play money and do you think its a good way to try and build a bankroll back up?
Or am I better to stick to the regular freerolls?

Thankyou

Regular freerolls, only way those would be worth the time is if you already had millions of play chips and was easy/fast to win more entries. If you're starting from scratch to gain one entry...

I second that. Unless you're multi-tabling the piss out of it you'll never build up the necessary dough to make it back into RM play.
Freerolls are tough though. It might be weeks before you win a penny.

I have a good bankroll there, but very occasionally I play the Omaha HL for play chips just for fun or practice. The 250 or 500 (?) chips ones are total donkfests, so not even worth the time for practice. Where do you find the $40 freeroll? I've never seen that there. How many people are in it? If it's 2700, not worth the bother unless it's strictly for fun. You can reload the play chips all the time. I think it's somethink like 1000 every few hours, but I could be wrong. Anyway, I've built up some play money, but would never fathom building a real bankroll from it.

re: Play Money at Fulltilt poker

The freeroll is under play money tournaments and runs once a day.I have found that at Omaha h/l is a donkfest but if u wait for good hands you can win 10-30k.I would think that it's easy winning since the tournament only gets around 40 or so players with 18 paid i believe.its running tommorrow at 20:40 Tilt time i.d(110459191) hope it helps.However getting the 500k play chips may pose a problem,once again goodluck.

i've played in the 40 buck freeroll several times and cash each time. It is very easy money. The hard part is getting that 500,000 chips but if you have patience its not very hard at all

Never really bothered with the play money route cuz it seemed like a waste of time and FTP has such a large amount of freerolls throughout the day.

Yes its in the play money on the highest price tournaments you can play.
Last night I saw it and there was only 55 people with 18th getting $2.
Not bad realy !

re: Play Money at Fulltilt poker

one strategy to increase your play money is to register for multi table tournies that take awhile to fill ... using all your chips then ask for a 1000 refill and then unregister from tournies or sngs...you can only do this every 15 minutes?

not a big help but better to start with 3-4-5000 than 1000

Duh. Sorry, I missed that. It's not in the main lisying as a $40. You have to open the lobby to see that part.

Thanks much, I just found it. I play the Omaha HL too, and the biggest tourneys there are for 10,000 chips. At any rate, I play them (VERY sparingly) just for fun and practice. And while the lowest buy-ins are horrible donkfests, worse than a freeroll, the 2500 & 10,000 chip buy-ins are much better. These are people that have at least won a game or 2.

But NLHE is not my best game, and really don't enjoy it, so no interest in grinding away at O8 for a million chips just to blow it on a chance at $2 in a game I dislike. lol

Very first freeroll I played, cashed in for the first 2 nights. I used up all my play money chips here about 3M. I usually just play other games that I don't know how to play with play money chips now like Omaha and Razz.

The 10k 90 player play chip tourneys pay out well, if you could win 2 of those a day, you would have enough for the 500k buy in
good luck

its a very easy game if your patient low field around 50 players max ive seen when i played in them top 18 get paid with a first place of $5 might not seem like much but its a good way to build up a bankroll from nothing

re: Play Money at Fulltilt poker

this is the long route to building up a bankroll form nothing.
i just get my hands on as many passwords for private freerolls as i can find, there is a lot of good money in those. its so hard passing all the donks in the play chips scene, if you can do it, extra credit you ye, it takes so much patience and time. i just find the exclusive private freerolls to be the easiest way to build up a BR.
