Another change

I also noticed that Full Tilt has modified its daily USA freeroll. It has upped the prize pool to $250 from $100. However, the maximum number of players has increased by nearly 5000 to a whopping 7500. Is it worth it to even play now? I mean FT is cleaning up with its rake and most of it is from the USA. So they reward us with a $250 freeroll that requires someone to beat 7499 other residents in order to win $25 .

Based on FT's 2700 player freebies that take 4+ hours to complete, one is looking at 6,7,8 hours of card watching to take the title. Unless I am under house arrest or it is the dead of winter I think I will pass. Not to mention the thing doesn't start until 8 pm my time. YIKES!!!!!

So there's 250% of the prize money they had before, and they only upped the field to 150% of what it was? Sounds like a better deal to me.

I noticed the increase. I'll give it a shot. I've noticed a lot more promotions on FT and PS lately. I guess they're getting ready for the repeal of the UIGEA.

They should have made it a turbo too.

No. Double-stacked Razz!

House Players

Hi, first time here. Anyone hear of "house players" on internet sites? I was on Doyle's Room and had to contact support re deposit requirements. She answered, then said, they don't allow online caluclators or house players. Thanks.

Well, to answer the question asked, no, it isn't worth playing these tournaments. There's way too many people, and going from 2500 to 7500 is a bigger increase than the increase in the prize pool.

Unfortunately these freerolls don't really bring either quality players or quality play. You're better off playing with people risking their money, even if it's small stakes.

Well thats good to see its more loot there, but thats the last thing those freerolls need is more players! darn! thats a big commitment for a little bit of money..

I like the freeroll better as it is now, i would rather aim for the top 90 of 7500 then 27 of 2700. I dont have much of a problem with the field. It makes it more of a challenge.
