morlspin Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Just seen this in the private lobby (uncheck the waiting box) Theres a €5000 freeroll which says open to all players who achieve 20fpp's between 7th and 18th june. Dunno if its a forum freeroll or a private one, but tourney info does state its open to all players:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penelopeys Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll Looks like it's open to all - strange it is in the private lobby tho :unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morlspin Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll im getting 2fpp per €5+50c stt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll the site says u get 1 FPP per 25c Rake not sure how it works for cash I saw a flop in a hand that went to a $20 pot, a $1 rake was taken. didnt get any FPPs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll Raked hand counts are added every time you see the flop where a rake is taken. FPP is added when you rake 25 cents on a hand...so you have to win the hand. So FPPs are far more difficult to amass than raked hands.

pistonbroke Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll cheers that would explain it i dont win many hands:rollin Doesnt that make it a bit unfair on cash players Morls says he get 2 FPPs for just entering an $5 STT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philossify Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll 5 euro STT not $5 STT - much more expensive - Boss profits have presumably taken a big jump after switching to euros. One way to do it would be to play 20 5+0.25 euri 2player STTs (1 fpp per game) - if you win 10/lose10 then its cost you 5 euro for your 20fpps. If you win 11/lose 9 then its cost you nought. Of course it starts to get expensive if you get beaten up at head-to-head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieGaz Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll well i contacted live support to see how many FPP's I have accumulated since 7th June, the operator replied 'none'! I was bit confused as I have played quite a few STT's so was nearly sure I should have at least some FPP's! I was then told that I had spent 37 FPP's (I played the €500 FPP freeroll last week) and that I would have to earn 37 FPP's before anymore would be counted towards this freeroll! Wouldn't have played the freeroll last week if I knew that!! :wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beekeeper Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Re: Pokerkings €5000 Freeroll I've been playing the 10 seat 5 Euro Sng's which pay the first four places. I think paying this extra place must lower the variance a bit. Anyway 6/10 completed so far and I am currently up 2.5 euros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been playing STTs for the PL challenge thingy, but have been spending the FPPs as I've earned them. Entered tonight's FPP game and it only left me with 5 FPPs. Have now played enough STTs to get up to 21 FPP. But it is a bit stupid as they have not stated that you have to earn and keep the FPPs. Hope you make it GeordiGaz :hope (may be worth a complaint if you miss out ???) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only really played 2 hands so far (except for badly protecting big blinds early on)...tripled up from 1200 with trip 2s...then doubled up with AA vs AK.
