GaF Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Given how low entry some of the recent WH freeroll promos have been, this could be worth it. Staking $50 (text says $25 for the monthly one, but the advertising blurb says $50) on Roulette will give you an ev return of 36/37 I think (I presume there's only one zero?) - 97.3% - so the cost of entering the freeroll will on average be $50 x (1-0.973) = $1.35. Are there cheaper games to make the money? Currently 119 in the weekly one this Friday and 2 in the monthly one. Dont spose anyone spotted how many runners in last weeks weekly? Check out our Side Game super offers, throughout the month of June. Read on for full details on how our Poker Lobby Side Games could guarantee you a seat in an exclusive $1,500 Freeroll and $5,000 Freeroll. Stake $25 For Free Entry It couldn't be easier - stake $25 across any of the Poker Lobby Side Games listed below and you'll automatically qualify for the $1,500 Freeroll. It doesn't matter if you win, lose or draw on our Side Games, your seat in the freeroll special will still be reserved.

GeordieGaz Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 ahhh this is handy. Have just had to deposit for the Super Serires tonight, the minimum is £10, so I deposited £10, reged for the tourney then decided to go on the Roulette wth the remaining £8.... after around 4 spins I was up to £45 so decided to cash it in. I'm sure I must have staked around £50 altogether so hopefully that will get me into those tourneys! Thanks GaF :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramer Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 Think the entry to these is quite high. I was in a weekly and monthly one last month and I think the weekly had about 250 and the monthly just over 1000. I looked the week after and the weekly one had quite a bit more. I'll check my account for exact numbers.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted June 10, 2009 Author Share Posted June 10, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 Thanks for that Cramer :ok SO the monthly is worth about a $13 buy in and should cost an average of $1.35 to get into - I might give it a go :) (The $1.35 will also get you into 2xweeklies, worth about $10 each - so $1.35 will buy you about $33 in entries :)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avongirl Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 cheers Cramer. If someone can confirm what time these run I'll add them to the diary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philossify Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 Are there cheaper games to make the money? ? Think the safest way is to shove £11 onto the casino side (transfer it from your poker account) and play roullette 5 times. You play £5 red £5 black and 20p on zero. If 0 doesn't come up then you lose £1, if zero comes up once then you gain £1,20 (assuming its British roulette with one zero and half the money back if zero comes up for even bets). Hope my maths is right :hope. Think I'll give this a go. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba_SamPa Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 The minimum stake on any single bet is 50p Phil, so couldn't do 20p on 0 With that in mind I decided with the probability on my side I'd just do £5 red £5 black, first spin.... 16, second spin.... yup - ZERO!! So I've staked my $25 for the week, but I'm the clever soul who it has actually cost £10 to do so :lol :wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samba_SamPa Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 So I'd recommend £5 on red, £5 on black AND 50p on zero :lol Won't cost you much even if 0 doesn't come in, but saves you some if it does :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaF Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 Re: William Hill Side Games Freerolls - $1500 and $5000 My WH is in GBP - anyone any idea what exchange rate they use, or do I have to play £25 instead of $25? Those of you that played already - did you get the token automatically(and immediately)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
