CLOSED - FIRST FREEROLL OF 2010 - $400 AT FULL TILT POKER 10TH JANUARY

yes a list works on some sites for private buy in tourneys but its very difficult

to get poker sites to set up a freeroll with a list of players names they just arent

interested unless you are putting the money up

Really bites that so many take advantage of a good thing.

my suggestion is with the list need screen name on the pokersite and if you win you forfit winnings.  But then again if you get a non true member on there and he knocks out a true member then its not gonna work..

maybe have registration 1 hr prior no late and then that gives time to go through the player list to see who should not be there and remove them from the tourney...

Honesty doesnt work anymore in the day and age...

thanks blue for the tourney and your hard work...

Thanks david.

We've tried almost everything except the suggestion from mihag in the other poker section regarding some link.  I'm going to look into that.

The alternative is an invite.

blue

will go check it out are you still in tourney?

Yes I am...just about anyway.

Currently 54th 49th out of 61.  Played probably one hand in the last 15.

blue

Pays 47 i think. To bad the password got leaked out.

It went from 100 people to over 400 in about 1 minute.

Oh well that's gonna happen blue.

Tony

Hi Tony,

Yeah - its a darn shame but we will get it right soon.  The late reg messed it up I think.  There should have been about 100.

blue

The late reg. is when it seemed to happen. There was a good 10 minutes for the password to get out.

Maybe if tilt could close it right when the tourney starts that would solve alot of it.

Tony

Well I just knocked out.  Had JJ - I raised all in preflop and the guy shows AK.  K came on the flop and that was that.  53rd position.

Thanks for organizing the freeroll blue

shame the password was leaked

thanks blue for all your hard work.

gg blue ya hung in there happens to the best of us...

hope to see you at the tables again...

I STAND UP AND APPLAUD YOUR GALIANT EFFORT ON THE TOURNEY IT WILL ALL GET FIXED AND THEN WE CAN ALL PLAY POKER WITHOUT THE FREELOADERS

Thanks guys.

We will come up with a plan to stop this leakage!

blue

I am here!!!! lol...and it's.....OVER!!!

lol...wow...did we get lots of new LCBers? if so - awesome! if not...or thought of just playing the freeroll tournament...i suggest you stick around...cuz whether or not you won in the tournament...you have already won more by being here at LCB  ;D

thanks blue...sorry i missed it again..

-blue...just go back to the way you did it before by providing FullTilt with a list of the players and provide us with a deadline to submit our FullTilt usernames to you. No password - just a restricted tournament for those who are on the list.

U have all the reason. That is a good plan. . .  For the next tournament.

Hey Soda,

Sorry you missed it.  Yeah - I'm looking into other ways. 

There was a "late reg" on the game and it went from about 100 to 400 in the last few minutes during late reg.

Hopefully next time you can play.

Wow i'm surprised at how many russians turned up.  No offense to russians of course, but it's clearly obvious that someone on here is leaking the password to a russian community and actually PREPPED them to get ready to receive it within 30 minutes prior to it starting. 

Doing a search on our previous tournament's password clearly gives an indication of whereabouts it's being leaked:

It is a shame but I think Soda's correct in saying we will have to go back to manually submitting names for future tournaments.  My apologies for the true members of LCB/LPB but I'll make sure to set something up with blueday for you guys soon.

Tim

Hi Tim,

Yes it was a big shame.  I'm going to go through and look at each person's profile.  It may give me a hint you never know.

As for going back to how we used to do it...yeah I think we are going to have to.  It seems to be the only way.

Anyway, that said here are the results.

Congrats to the winner VitalicS whoever that is and second was Rob Lethal who did sign up to the game here at LPB.

Well done Rob.  Well done too to POKERGODLUV and PANAMHEIST who also signed up to LPB.

blue

Hi Tim,

Yes i think the old way is the only way to go as Soda suggested. I hope you do indeed set up another one soon!!! Even though there was a lot of players in it...it was still a blast!!

Lips

BTW Tim,

I'm waiting to hear from John@FT re any other ways to register.  You never know, he might get back to me within the week lol.

And LIps - yeah I have to go back to the old way sadly if there is no other way.  There weren't so many interested in the pre-registration route and I had a lot of trouble with that too (not on our side of things either).  Hopefully I will hear from John soon and there will be another way (fingers crossed).

Hey Shelli - He came back to me and the other option is called "Web registration".

"Yes, in order for the qualifiers for your web registrationtournament to register the list of player id's will need to be uploaded inthe system so that only these players will be able to register for thisweb registration tournament"

Seems I still have to send the names but you can just click a link and you are registered.

Back to the old way again.
