Yes you have to earn 5000 comp points to enter the 50K freeroll...less for the lesser freerolls, but you earn points pretty quickly so no, it's not hard.

Lady you are an awesome tourney player.

I won a $5 rebuy satellite on Full Tilt last night for the $200+16 Sunday 750k, and got my ass kicked with top pair vs a flopped set. I dont play tourneys often but the satellite seemed like a good one at the time. the 750k was alright, I think I made a couple mistakes in hands, next time i will do better.

I also hit up the cash games last night for $250, that was the real fun, a very loose 3 hour session, much easier to lose a hand and still be ready to stack your opponent the next hand.

Anyways congrats on the cash in the tourney, sometime soon I might want to put some cash on Nordica and try out the cash games.

Thanks very much for the compliment Ice.

I don't get out much so when I get excited I have to share the good news and you guys are pretty much all the people I talk to regularly LOL

I would love to see you on Nordica sometime. The tourney quality there is by far the best I've run across of all the sites I've played on. You don't run across the all-in craziness hardly at all...usually it's only toward the near end of the tourney when people are trying to put the low stacks out and reach payout...but that is the way it should be, at least IMO. Also the players are not as rude or hateful as some of the other sites, like Full Tilt for instance....where you will get all sorts of swearing and chat flooding, and people running off the donks before you can make money off of them. LOL

Anyway, it's just a really good atmosphere in general and it'd be good to see you there. I run into HeyKidMove occasionally there as well.

What types of tournaments are you most interested in? I can see how many they have that are in your interest and then you can see if it sounds good enough for you to join. But I will tell you, besides tourneys, you can really make a killing on the cash tables as well.

If I do join, it would be for the cash games, I like tourneys from time to time but I notice mistakes I make after the fact, right now I would like to specialize and move up the cash ladders until I am better rolled at higher games.

I already downloaded it, so I would just have to get some $ on the site, which I think I would try a bankroll building thing to start, it is fun to try to build a big roll out of a small amount. I will let you know later when I decide to try. Maybe tomorrow.
