I guess my earlier post of complaining worked because I just got 23rd in the pokerroom DECCA freeroll and won $50. Not gonna make me rich, but hey I'll take it. :)

Not so fast that 50 very well could be the building block to a professional poker career!

Haha! I wish. Maybe I can learn enough here to eventually use poker as a source of extra income. I cant figure out why I always place high in freerolls with 2400 people (played 3 today - 108th,52nd, and 23rd) But I dont do so hot in ring games. I usually go up and down a little but end up close to even. Maybe I need to enter real money multi table tourneys?

Placing in freerolls really doesnt mean you will do well in real money tourneys. Its easy to get top 100 in a 10,000 player freeroll...easier than placing top 10 in a 200 player real money tourney thats for sure

Wasn't my fault, sorry :(

Hi all,
Well I just had my first really bad poker day, I managed to get into todays freeroll but didn't realise until it started that i'd also registered for the $5 freezout which started at exactly the same time. This didn't worry me too much as it's ok playing two tourney's at noble.
Things were going ok at both tourneys, I was sat next to grumble the last I saw, can't remember what my chip count was but the $5 freezout was already down to around 30 players left and paying 10 places, I was at 4,700 chips and then it happened. A big explosion outside the house, lightning struck one of the electric cables and knocked the whole street out for 3hrs, I just got back to find out I was taken out 11th place at the $5 freezout, should have been easy money but thanks to Nipsco, NO(wankers ) took them long enough to fix it just for me to see my chance disappear.
Anyone know where I ended up in the freeroll?
I'm going to play a SNG now and hopefully the electric will stay on long enough for me to get some money back,lol
Good luck all :)
