It's where the top 100 finishers win $1 TD and then can trade that TD for entry in The Ferguson. Oh yeah and it's way obviously at FTP.

I'm just curious about what level of play to expect.

One more thing. Any thoughts on the Razz freeroll at FTP? It's my arch nemesis of freerolls. And yes I do know how to play razz. I'm just baffled by the folks who complete with visible paint at a full table and so on and so forth.

it's the standard freeroll crowd. when you take 2700 people and get them to to register in 3 minutes, you're playing with quality. as for razz, it's just fun, but starting between A and 5 in the pocket, gives some hope.

The Ferguson is pretty fun, definitely play one, the satellite.
The actual game has sweet payouts. Just like the $1 tourney.....but a better name :)

I won two nights ago...

Yes, this is by far the best freeroll... it's a super turbo, which means... it goes by really fast... by the 1st hour, your close the the money...

I won this tourney about two nights ago... it was really fun to play in... and I would recommend it to all of the newbies out there trying to jump start their bankrolls...

this freeroll, is the fastest and easiest way to make money... between all of the other freerolls that Full Tilt offers...

Yeah, I agree. I got into one of these about a week ago just for the fun of it. I finished about 40 places out of the money, but it only took around 75 minutes to get to that point, so it didn't waste too much of time.

Ferguson freeroll time...

the Ferguson Freeroll... starts at 23:10 Full Tilt time... but the registration for it begins at 23:00 on the dot... make sure you sign up then, or you'll miss out... since it fills up pretty quick

best of luck at the tables

Expect the same crowd as normally plys in the FT freerolls. At least the payout if top 100 and not top 27 like usual. I came in 10th in a nlh freeroll today. My aces got cracked by pocket kings. Boy was i pissed.

I always keep missing this freeroll. I try to play most of them, but this one is really cool like others have said since the top 100 get paid and it goes by very quickly.

ANother one I like is the early double satellite. Its also a turbo and goes by so fast.........

I don't see this tourny listed on FT. It registers at 23:00? And someone said there were satellites for this tourney? A satellite for a freeroll? I'm confused. could someone offer some more info on this please?

Sorry but "Just a bunch of donks" wasn't what I was looking to read. I've been called a donk for raising with pocket jacks and higher, so I don't know what you consider a "donk".

Anyway, thanks to those who gave actual info, and detailed opinions. I'm going to try and play in it a few times this week.

There might be satellites for The Ferguson. I haven't looked for them, but I've played in some satellites at UB for twenty cents, so it's very possible.

The only satellite for the Ferguson is the Ferguson freeroll in which the top 100 players get $1 for their trouble.

eh...

I have played in a few of these. The level of play is a step above freerolls. I mean, it's only a dollar. They're fun, but I've never placed in one.

I've played it a couple of times and always donked out early as I usually do with any tourney. It's hard to get in, have to be fast.

Anyone able to point me to the right place for this freeroll.

I see all the regular ones, but not the Ferguson..

Is it on the normal section or somewhere special ?

in that ferguson freeroll, you can expect the same cast of characters as seen in most freerolls. Maybe its 1 level higher of play than your normal freeroll actually. Razz, eeeww, too many lucky people to play that freeroll.
