A full tilt poker 100 dollar freeroll at 6:00am west coast and 9:00 east coast, 15 seconds to fill. By the time I hit the button to register it was already 2,000 people
Feeling your pain. It's a bit like walking around and spotting a $0.05 coin on the ground, so you go get it, but right before you get there someone else spots it too, bends over and takes it away from you.
Well, it's not "a bit like", it's exactly like that. Same EV loss...
I deposited twice, but I lost it all and I'm a broke college kid, who needs to think about things. So I just play freerolls for now. Teaches me to get better too. The whole online thing is so much different than brick and morter, and in my opinion harder.
