I have finish 3 and 6 in bonus dollars freerole and a coulple times in the lower levels where you win less then 2 bucks. I won first in an ultimate points tourny and qualified in the money one other time. I love playing the huge freeroles tourneys and to see how long I can last.

My biggest win updated

I have just win second in the freeroll celebrated from here and i won 12.50 dollars so at least im progress already.the freeroll was in Ub and the most funny thing is that a person that never showed up get into the final table hahaha:D that was funny but hey i am going to tell the truth.I was a little scare of him because I NEVER SEE HIM PLAYING A SINGLE HAND!!! i think he was just waiting for the best hand lol.The ones that i beated with luck i feel really sorry but i was in a rush my connection was starting to fail me I hate dial up.Good luck all next time hope to see all later.

As I dont play real money games on UB I only play the freerolls
I regularly make the TEC finals on a Sunday but am yet to win a TEC chip
I either Earn bonus dollars on a regular basis or am one of the first knocked out. But hopefully by gaining some knowledge from all of the people here at the Forum that could all be about to change lol

Best I've done was 14th or so in a 2500 person freeroll on UB. Saddly I went from #1 in chips, which I'd been in for most of the tournament, to bust in the matter of 10 minutes. I definetly dropped the ball on that one. :)

I've had pretty good success with the Sit n Goes on UB though. I generally play those until I get some cash or points for a multitable tournament.

Hi Guys ,

i've won twice at casino.net , twice the AbsolutePoker Freeroll and some in the Places. My biggest one was at PacificPoker where i finish on 1st at a 2.50 buy - in and i cash 150 $....

But i am trying to collect this small ones to buy myself into bigger ones where you really can do money.

I'll learn in the moment and in a couple of weeks i'll play some Big Tourney's and we'll see what's the result.

I'll keep you posted. lol

I love playing tournaments!! I live for them. On Ub the best i ever got was 2nd place in a freeroll. On jetsetpoker I've gotten 1st in headhunter tournament,1st in a few freerolls ( all cash) and also on jetpoker 1st in a paigow (cash). I do habe my share of winning. Depends on my mindset on how well I do,among other things. Also I pokerhost I won a acouple of cashmoney freerolls. With each tournament I learn and I do get better.When I bust out early or when I have a bad beat, I sometimes get hard on myself and/or replay hands over and over....then on to my next fix, another tournament!:)

The best I have placed is 11th out of 4500. 2 spots away from winning a seat to another tourny. Very short stacked at the time. Should've been out much earlier.

Working my way up

online poker different then looking someone in the eye and trying to figure out the hands. Here you have to trust the computer to be dealing fair (HA) and see if anything you can pick up about the habits of online players.

Do they bet fast or slow when they have a good hand, or a bad hand.

Do they raise all the time only to fold later and maybe win a pot every now and then, but this just drives up the pot and skill goes out the window.

So much to watch for ya know.

I play mostly freerolls at pokerstars. 6,0000 people is alot to start a tourney. On six occasions I have finished in the top nine but have never done great at the follow-up money tourney you qualify for. I did make $1.50 yesterday in a freeroll where I finished 22nd. Now I have 19 cents.

I am always doing good in the private freerolls. Some of mine are 3 out of 500., 6th out of 300, and 10th out of 50 on a big one. I also came in 9th in a 50FPP tourney on Pokerstars. It had 1000 people in it
