Hi all,

I've posted before about specific UK freerolls with conditions of deposit for entry.

This is a new freeroll which will run every Thursday at 6pm UK time. Its hosted by a twitch streamer True Geordie. As far as I can tell this guy chats about football not poker. @Martin have you heard of him? There is no need for a deposit, the touney password is released on the day. GG UK seems to tweet it out.

For any non UK CC'ers reading this a Geordie is basically someone who comes from in and around Newcastle in the NE of England, on the River Tyne, not to be confused at all under any circumstances with people from Sunderland. which is close by, but on the river Wear. People from Sunderland are Mackems.

The above was just to explain the streamers name. Anyway, I've never listened, I am also from a close by area, but 20 miles South, and being a Middlesbrough fan, I would not want to listen to a streamer jabbering on about Newcastle Football Club.

So, I played this week, the first tourney. Lets just say there were a huge number of newbies playing. I'd say half the players had never played on GG before. That's not to say they had def never played poker, but there were some crazy plays. Literally giving chips away. I finished 16/400 for around T$9.50. There is a rebuy and an add on option for $1. This money does not get added to the prizepool, but I decided to do it as I almost forgot about the tourney and was very low on chips when I started. Min cash will be pretty easy to achieve as long as major coolers are avoided.

As bonuses there are also bounties on True Geordies head and maybe his mates, not sure on this yet, plus the FT, top 9, get $25 GG tickets too.

Its a no brainer for any UK player who plays on GG I'd say. I'll post the password here when I remember, assuming I don't get told not to. @Martin, can you clarify to me if this is OK to do.

Good luck people

Late registered it with a rebuy and addon. Finished ITM for T3.25, so a small profit.

Yeah very true about numbers, still plenty are sitouts.....still worth it!

Did you get an email about a ticket for Showdown freeroll tonight, check your account......you may have one! Onl;y 9o player so far, 10 mins to go, but probs 1 hr late reg! You usually need to deposit but not tonight it seems

 

[SpanRmonka]

Made a Tidy $20.71 last night!

 

[RhinoRyan89]

I saw the freeroll but didn't recive an email or ticket to enter congrats tho bud.

Ah right, its maybe cos I deposited last week. Annoyingly I had to deposit to cash out, as the last card I deposited on had expired!

SO seems like its a $20 deposit per ticket, so 1 per week. I think these fields will be small due to this. Last summer they had a similar tourney and I cashed quite a bit in it. 1st place was $350!
I have no problem deposting weekly and cashing out at the end of it. I'm not sure they would be happy if I just took it all back straight away!! Haha

 

[RhinoRyan89]

@SpanRmonka

I think that $2000 showdown has replaced the $2000 welcome freerolls tho.

I was Hoping they would both still be running and a deposit would get you a ticket for both looks like not tho.

When i have deposited and got a ticket for the $2000 welcome freerolls I would max late reg and tanks a few hands and be gtd $14-$16.

Last time I did that gtd the $14 and played after that I managed to Ft and get $70 a couple of weeks ago.

 

[SpanRmonka]

Well I think I'm done with these, 1500 players and 60% sitting out. Its pretty dull.....maybe if I've really got nothing to do I'll play.

It would be way better to have a password like they started off having.

Yeah defo

Lost the chance of winning much now unless get the bounty.

I'll just max late reg after about 45 mins it closes now as ITM.

A free T$1 or T$1.50 for no work each time it runs

That’s true a max late reg spin up attempt is much more worth the time!

I was late to the start. Got interrupted by a variety of things during the first hour and limped out before the late reg started. Maybe will join at late reg next week and see how it goes.

Well done to you guys who cashed.
