all right. 35 minutes in we're already down to 250. Just 541 started. Definitely the easiest $5 i've made on PokerStars.

I'm in 123rd, so i've got a shot at finishing in the top 50 :)

Or not. 74 beats my KJ. >_<

Thanks for the bump on this one, I had completely missed it the first time around.

Looks like they're running PL Draw and PL Holdem starting tonight. Since there are two different types of games, can we win $5 at each or do we have to choose one or the other this week?

Also the $3,000 freerolls tomorrow are for joining the PPA as a free member. I'm sure the fields will be big, but you're supposed to be limited to one event only as it's a drive to increase membership in the PPA.

Yea, the $3000 you can only join one of the 4, so pick wisely.
Also, for the Summer games, i just found out about them today, wish i had realized earlier, as i think you can only enter into one game per week (one of each type), i already missed 4, but im surely going to try hard in these last 2, as pokerstars has been hardest site for me to build up a bankroll in.

I played last week and made $5 playing Omaha. I'm terrible at Omaha, but I pretty much folded my way there. I think I won two pots, and lost about half of that to about 3-4 that I played and lost.

It's one of the juiciest freerolls I've seen.

Whew, that was a tough $5. I guess Pot-Limit is a bit different than no-limit, since you can't go all-in quite as easily, the donks didn't go out quite soon enough. I think I finished around 170 or so to get the money. But it wasn't quite as easy as it seems.

Right around 300, I was forced all-in on the big blind I think they were somewhere around 400/800 - guess what I get dealt? 73o - ouch - I'm gone. Flop comes no help, the turn pairs up a 7, on the river - TRIP 7s! I think that's the worst suckout I've ever been on the good side of. Brought me up to just over 1800 chips and I was able to ride it out.

Thanks again for the tip on the (maybe not so) easy $5!

It was easy money. I like when Stars does freerolls like that instead of the hubble donkfest they always have.

GL on the felt.

Yeah the $500 is not easy to get thats for damn sure, top 5 out of 140. I believe it is only for Canadians and Americans only. I just made the money in the pot limit hold em.

HOW DO I JOIN THE PPA? I tried "ppapoker.com", and didn't see a join section- only links to PS, which I am already on. Thanks
