Default So disappointed

Have been playing the World Series free rolls now for about three weeks, and have not been doing too shabby. Six times on the final tables, three times in last 4 and twice won a ticket. Was fun and a lot of hard work.

First time ticket got me no where. Second time went on to WS 1 where top four win another ticket and last person wins 4 bucks. So on I go to WS 2 and here was the disappointing part, made it to the final table and ended up second. No free ticket but what was really crappy was nothing at all for second not $3 or 4 or 5. Nothing at all for all the hard work. Well that was a wake up call as i am now cured of playing the WS. Come on site do I hear $2 bucks.

Watched Rad play this one... she's top notch... ran into a very aggressive player who ran several others off the table and had a commanding chip lead going into the heads up... but she hung tough with him... very nice try, Rad... I hope you get the spirit to come back and try again... I think you have a great chance of getting there!

Cheers!

no I can't but worked hard to get there and where is the extra money going is what I want to know. OK Series 1 is $3 to get into and how many rebuys were made at $3 a person? But at least there were 4 tickets plus 5th place won $4. Series 2 is $16 plus $1 and there were 6 players, now that adds up to $102 plus the rebuys. The end prize was 1 ticket to step 3 worth $75 plus $5 which is $80 and that's it folks, so where is the extra $22 dollars plus any rebuys. That pretty much sucks in my books. Should have taken 5th spot in Series 1. Live and learn.

Rad, you have played incredibly, and you are phenomenial to have done what you did. So many great finishes. It must be frustrating to have put in so much and getting nothing for second place at that late level, which you didnt deserve. You were at a chip disadvantage against an aggressive player and do have the talent to place first.

we (community,family) are all proud of you, and you have done op66 itself proud

Rad...glad I read your thread, as I won a WSOP freeroll yesterday 1st attempt lol, and hence a voucher to the next stage. However, it seems now I have to win every other round, otherwise like you say, no payouts for long and tiring efforts...yesterday's game took 3.5 hours.

It is draining, and well done mate. op66 players seem to flourish there.

ironic thing is instead of getting a ticket by free roll, one can actually pay 3 dollars or something to enter next round

but it is a good test of a players ability, and improves ones game

man these world series games are truly a drain to play. i came 3rd yesterday so just missing out on a voucher.. but worse thing was the other two players had like 125k in chips and i was limping along with 19k ish lol you so hard to be faced against a brick wall too high to get over. And like radz points out .. not a penny to show for your efforts

been there a lot fut, but well done hun! Should give a 1-4th voucher for all that effort and time involved. A lot and i mean a lot of hard calculating work, especially as you say, when u end up on the final as low man with chippies. But well done hun!
