as far as i can tell the freerolls on ub are way to long for the little bit that you get.after making it threw 4500 bingo playing idiots....i got $9 and a chance to play in a $1000 freeroll.....it took almost 7 hrs for that tourny thats like what $1.30 an hr.......waste of time......play the real money sit and goes much better play and not very long.......

ur complaining about winning free money?
they are giving u the opertunity to play real money games and this is how u thank the site

its the first non cardchat freeroll i have played in years... i have real money on the site,the $9 really didnt help my bankroll much,when u consider i play $2-$4 nolimit most times.so thats like 1 or 2 bets........for 7 hrs of play its really not worth it........and not bashing the site just said their freerolls are to long and time consuming for the little bit you do get thats all

Call me Captain Obvious....but if you are playing 2/4 NL, then why play a free roll with such a low payout? I can understand maybe playing Bodog's 1,000 guarantee freeroll when you're playing 2/4 NL. But not a freeroll with a tiny payout.

Is that why it took 7 hours, (including the 4500 bingo playing idiots which help it to run faster) the Hubble's freerolls on Poker Stars takes 7 hours and they have 12000 entrants.

And curse Ultimate Bet for hiding the payout and maximum entrants so you didn't know what you were getting into.

This is the reason they call it "Grinding" when your trying to increase your BR.
It may take time to make $9 but you have $9 more than what you started with.
The only freeroll I really find a waste of time is the Hubble freerolls at PS, 10000 entries just to get a seat into another freeroll which has a $1000 prize pool.

well I think you missing the positive you placed 1st of 4500 congratulations now just turn that 9 into millions now. Not to mention I am sure round 2 has a much bigger prize pool with a better field.

I have not seen a poker site that has a freeroll with that many entrants that doesn't last so long it is not worth playing. That is why I do not play freerolls - and neither should you if you don't want to play that long.

#14 16th January 2008, 2:19 PM

I have played in that freeroll a few times and just use it to loosen up , I wouldn't bother playing it seriously. I did make it to the last 400 or so once and that took a few hours, I was playing Stars at the same time so wasn't really grinding.

If you want to play and don't want to risk anything but want the chance to win a little, WHAT A DEAL.
