I dont think that I have ever played an online tourny with this type of structure. I mean giving you 2000 chips with the blinds 10/20. This is probaly going to be a pretty long tourny especally with about 650 people. Any one have any stratagy tips. I will probally just play really tight in the begining and try to pick up some bigger pots with huge hands and then go from there.

Sorry I couldn't win guys. I was doing well early and then BS struck. Look at this river...

Wow that really sucks, well at least we know that there are some pretty bad players in this thing.

[ILLINI1A]

I am out too.....had Pocket Kings 3 times in a row and got beat twice by Ace on the Flop and the third by a person with Q9 after I went all in pre flop....he caught 2 pair....didnt I say I HATE PRIMA POKER SITES!!!!

[UofTNick]

That blows YBP - hopefully the next one goes a little better.

I'm doing quite poorly. I ran into a guy that hit quad J's - luckily he only min-raised me, so i'm still alive. Only have ~900 left though....

[greendrag00n]

sorry i didnt make this one guys i had other things on my mind.

[UofTNick]

Well, I just busted out in 239th. During this tournament i ran into quad's twice (J's and Q's), and I was busted when I had 8's full of tens, and the other guy had 10's full of Jacks.

I just ran into some big hands (when I also had a hand) and had some bad luck. Hopefully the next one goes better.

I saw Acorn was still alive, so GO ACORN! Bring BBP some points

[Acorn89]

Well im out in 160. Not that bad in this kind of freeroll but I couldnt make the top 50

I was getting pretty short stacks, to like 1500 and the blinds had justed raise to 250/500. I was one the button and every one had folded to me so I thried to pick up the blinds. So I went all in. Well that didnt turn out so great because I was call by both the SB and BB. I had A9 by the way. I didnt hit anything on the flop so here I am posting this story to you.

[sensei24]

I was out 411.
I played very badly all night.
I hope to recover in our tournaments.

[iceberg]

I busted out in 499th in the first 30 minutes. My plan was to play aggressively and chase those flush and straight draws. Not a good idea since, my first table was playing tight. I liked the format (similar to WSOP, I think) and play went relatively smooth. But considering the BBP tournie was scheduled to start 2 hours later, I went for the gusto.

Someone from BBP made top 50 and needs to be congratulated.
