mhoward29 0 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 So yesterday I got third in a freeroll and made $2 on full tilt.Today I played a $1 + .25c 1 table sng. Got third, got up to $2.55After that I played a $2 +.15c HU PLO game, won two games in a row againest the same guy. Guy was horrible at PLO and its a game I play live pretty well.So now I have $6.25 in my account!!! All from nothing, expect dodging 90 freeroll players that were all in every hand. But the free roll did cost 500k play money so the people werent totally stupid.Best new online player ever? Discuss.(sw) Link to post Share on other sites

It's tough freerolling.Check your account.I just doubled your bankroll, don't waste it Wow thanks man. That was totally unexpected but much appretiated! Any advice on how I should play this? There isnt any micro stakes on FT that I can play for cash games, which I prefer. I guess just keep going at the $2 HU sng's? Advice is welcomed! Link to post Share on other sites
albertoflamingo 0 Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Yay freerolls, I thought the entrants to the 500k freeroll were usually only 40 players (not that it matters)? Third in 2700 entrant one last month on FT=$9 (brag post). Worked my way up to $400 but then I life tilted away $380 of that. My recommendation is to play the turbo six mans; everybody is incredibly donkish. Bensavage=incredibly nice guy and gl mhoward. Link to post Share on other sites
