My first evening got to a good start. Built the play money bankroll from 1000 to 349000. Soon enough for one 500k freeroll buy-in.

Wow, how did you do it!? I managed to get it up to 20k, then lost it on bad beats. Congrats on that, but I just wish I could do that with play chips, as most of the donks are at the lower levels of play chips and freerolls. Wanna play together again mollila?

Ok, got my play chips up to 2.2k right now in limit holdem starting with 1k at the 10/20 tables. But I'm going to go to bed, but before I do, let me ask one question that really only applies to me and you mollila. Should I keep track of our play chip counts? Because after about a few mills in play chips, we are going to enter the 500k tourneys. So once we both hit at least 3m, lets both enter the 500k tourneys together.

But yeah, should I keep track of people's play chip counts if they are deciding to do a freeroll that requires play chips to be involved?

Thanks. I built it by playing those same low nl games that we both played yesterday, and when I got about 30,000 I opened two 100/200 nl omaha tables. Those omaha games are totally loose and wild, and it was easy to get big pots with your strong hands and draws. Check out those if you play omaha.

Don't know. Might be too much extra to track play money bankrolls as well. But it would be fun to play in some same freeroll. Lets see about that when we both have a few million.

I'm going to play until at least several million play chips before trying the first freeroll, so that I have enough play bankroll to get more without dropping down in limits.

I am very confident that I could make the money within a fwe tries, so I will only need about 3m at least. So when I get there, I'll see where your at and we can enter one together.

But I have no life, so nothing is too much tourble for me.

Well, today is yet another bogus day. Entered a HORSE freeroll, and of course, busted out after the second hour in 400th place even though I was at the average chip stack. It was just sick beats after sick beats. I'd flop a set of 6's, and someone with A 5 would runner runner straight, I would hit top two pair, someone would runner runner a flush. I don't know why this keeps happening to me, but it's just so sick.

I'm going to go jump off a building right now. 28th place! I kept raising, raising, and it was capped on 3rd street. It's just me and one of the chip leaders. turn gives him a pair, I keep raising, and he raises me! I push, and he shows me crap and hits runner runner for ONE better low than me on 7th! I swear...

I know, but still, it's the bubble in a freeroll after 8 hours!

Ok, I won the PTOTW on PokerNordica, but me and the other guy split it $55 to the winner, $45 to the loser. I won, and lost $20 right away (like the last time). All I did was enter in a bunch of $2.20 SnG's, small Cash Games, etc. and bad beats ruled all. But since I am doing the Chris Ferguson challenge for FTP and not PokerNordica, I was wondering if it would be against the rules to transfer than money from PokerNordica to FullTiltPoker? (No deposits will be involved, only money transfers.)

I would think as long as the money was won by means of freeroll and not by means of deposit then it shouldn't matter where you transfer the money...

I don't know but I think it's your own personal challenge (for each person to meet as they see fit)... so if you feel it's acceptable, I don't see how anyone else could fault you for it.
