So this week Im trying to get on the On Demand Leaderboard which is top 10 players with highest points. Im at 17 points and top leader has 36 points. Have any of you gotten top 10 or even ranked 1st. I start around 8am and pretty much keep on registering freeroll after freeroll until late at night around 1am.

I notice at some point when I finally do good in one freeroll after dozens of registration, I finally get what I think is good variance ?? I stop getting bad beats, and start catching. I don't rely on the luck, however i feel it does help with a bit of skill involve. it feels like what i think is an edge.

Im just doing this to try and rank up and get 1st on the leaderboard but also i feel its good practice on learning to deal with losing.

forgot to mention . i am not playing hour after hour but i do break down the time i put in. i find the game is softer later at night and early in the morning. in the afternoon, theres just too many people signed up , so i don't play much until 5pm and play for about 2 hours and take a break until 10pm-1am. im not playing everyday but i been playing almost everyday this week to try and reach my goal.

I have been thinking about giving that a shot for a week to see if, I too, can make it in the top 10. I haven't given it a shot yet, as I know I will need as much time to play as possible, and just don't have the time currently. Sounds like you are off to a good start, by being at 17 points so far. I'm sure you can make it into the top 10 if you put in as much volume as possible, and running good certainly wouldn't hurt either. I have seen a few threads (but can't recall who the OP was) about this leaderboard. Someone has gotten into the top 10 twice and ended up being put into a few freerolls. I can't recall exactly how it worked, but it sounded good. I also agree that it is good practice at learning to deal with variance.

1st place gets sunday buy in worth 215.00 to the 50,000gtd and 50.00 buy to saturdays game which is 10k wsop 2seat gtd satellite. and 2nd-10th place leaderboard finishers all get a seat to 50.00 buy in as well.

playing to top 1st place finisher which is 36 pts right now is good, but I want to finish on top atleast double the amount or atleast try to aim for double

I actually just recently started playing at ACR in these freerolls. Man they can be pretty brutal it seems but it's free so I can't complain. I've only been playing for 2 days now but the closest I got was 16th place. I would be pretty siked just to place at this point haha. I'm assuming the leaderboards reset weekly right like when the clock hits Monday?

Well just to update I finally made a final table and took 2nd place. I played insanely tight and won a few 50/50s which I guess is really what you have to do to cash in any tournament. Now the big question play two 55 cent tournys or let it ride at the penny cash tables. I'm leaning heavily towards the tournaments. 2nd got $1.35 lol

I'd say keep playing in free rolls and try to build a bigger roll before doing anything.

Also WPN's FreeBuys series is coming up! should save up for some R&A's!

Yeah, I have placed in the top ten in several and won one last night. Plan on trying to make top ten this week since I have two free days. Total guess but probably around 25 points to make the top ten.

i came so close last week placing 12th. I would have made top 10 if i didnt bust out on the last freeroll i was in on friday. I got chopped with AA against someone who played 6 2 suited. Dude called my all in preflop when he didnt have to call , but iono i guess he was feeling it. lol. from there i couldnt make it through to the final table. killed my chance of ranking.

looking forward to trying again next week.

I admire your diligence in trying! I live in MI where we have a 0.10$ deposit on pop cans and bottles. Honestly, I'd rather walk along a divided highway picking up cans to take back for deposit rather than trying to roll myself with onDemand freerolls. That being said I find it interesting that you seem to have found some kind of path through these. I've cashed in a few but they take around 4 hours if memory serves me right. Usually my 9 year old daughter is sitting beside me and we are talking casually about poker and hand ranges. Most of the discussions are obviously 'how not to play' as there are plenty of examples for that! She enjoys spending time learning a game and I enjoy the time with her so it fits but for BR purposes it's a grind I commend you. "What types of things are you trying to get into your game or learn when playing these MTT's"?

Pokervike I feel you on the picking up cans point but I enjoy poker so getting something for nothing is just a bonus. As far as learning things from them it's just the usual play extremely tight and when the donk calls which there will be 100s of hope he doesn't luck out. I'm actually rank 11th on the leader board right now and 2 points away from 10th last I checked. Have until the end of today to weasel my way onto the board wish me luck!

I still haven't won the leaderboard, but did manage to flip some of winnings in the freerolls. Registered in the .50 cent 250$ GTD. Took 2nd for 35 dollars so it's a start. Going to give the freerolls a rest for a while. It is a horrible grind.

right one on the win . yeh i believe if you got a few bucks, might as well give a chance and gamble. Unless you got 30.00 or more from a freeroll, you can't really do much .. but its also a bad habit if you don't learn to bankroll. Im down to 6th place. I gotta place one 1st place finish on 1 freeroll. Got until friday to make something happen .

waiting on the final result. I saw 2nd place finisher (42pts) in a game and got 10th place which will give him 1pt. And that would make us tied for 1st place .. :confused: :confused: :confused:
I FINISHED with 43pts

LEADERBOARD 1ST

I have won a few of these freerolls but have moved on to penny tables and $2 jackpot play. I ran my freeroll winnings up to $100 in about two months only playing a few hours a week. If you cash frequently in these freerolls you should be playing every freebuy tournament. They give away good money to people who can survive to the top 100.

I love these free-rolls , I haven't played them for a bit . I won the leader board 1 time with 61 points. And made top 10 a couple of times.If you can chip up to 10 - 15K - then play tight aggressive , you have a good chance to cash.

It is very difficult to take first place in these tournaments,you need to survive the first stage - to be ready to die!
