I'm also playing in this tournament, but the system has a lot of problems.
There is a constant pause.

For a while, some players started collecting blinds from inactive players (about 30 seconds), and then the tournament was stopped again. :confused:
Got a message the tournament will be cancelled and refunded, so for a freeroll there's nothing. ,😅

40 minutes of waiting and then here's the pop up saying that the tournament has been cancelled, the prize money has been refunded as per the rules and after a very short time the tournament lobby closes automatically so you can't see who has received the money.
I have to say, I didn't expect GG handle a situation like this so poorly.

something went wrong in this tournament ((everything was hanging right away, then I managed to see the cards a couple of times, but immediately a message came out that the operator had suspended the tournament ((well, let's see, they can reschedule the tournament, we need to monitor the messages))

Я не знаю, открыто ли оно для кого-либо, но я вижу, что зарегистрировано много представителей разных стран.

Эта тема для тех, кто еще об этом не знает. Те, кто уже знает, могут игнорировать это...

Правила CC запрещают мне делиться pw, но я даю вам подсказку, потому что ведущий турнира был не совсем креативен.
Pw — это название фриролла
The problem is that when the tournament started and the players were seated at the tables, this tournament just glitched and the game client itself didn't answer either. I tried to re-log in to the App to enter the tournament but I wasn't let in due to their client's overload, I was very upset because I had high hopes for this tournament

8 cents ok no big deal but still it was just to understand the criterion why some received something and others didn't.

I also did not receive anything which is the usual case with freerolls.

Usually tournaments are "rolled-back" and buyins are paid back but with freerolls there's nothing to pay back. 😅

yes and no let's say the wpn daily $50 if you are in the prize pool and after just 20 minutes from the start the tournament is cancelled, you will receive a portion of the prize pool depending on your position.

anyway it was just curiosity reading that that forum member received something :)

Well I would assume GGPoker is big enough to handle a giveaway of $10K since it's even tournament money, so cannot directly be withdrawn.

pokfaq said:

Exactly. So my guess is they lose more rake by paying back all buyins than the 10K.

Additionally such incidents aren't good for their reputation.

Do you know it was permanently cancelled? I would guess they might redo it at some point.

I'm hoping for exactly that. but my theory is since in the description in the lobby of said freeroll , smth about raisse your edge affiliates was written..
I think the person who created the freeroll ****ed up and didn't set restrictions so only raiseyouredge members would be able to register

Yeah exactly the worlds biggest pokersite atm lets their server crash on purpose to scam people out of a freeroll 😀

They just let the whole site crash and waive a lot of rake to pull this 10k scam. So easy to see through what they did here. And since it should be a TOP priority for them to reschedule a freeroll when the whole site crashes, the scam is even more obvious 😮😮😮

You could say that although I don't see myself anywhere near semi-pro level 😅

I am quite succesfull in satties though
500 profit after deducting fees? That's good. What ratio of satties to tournaments do you do?

I enter quite a few satties but it's picking the right ones. I find the turbo / hyper nature of a lot of them creates more variance. GG's odd in that starts normal but switches to turbo and then your stack quickly depletes in ratio to the blinds. Satties can often have a tighter pay structure with 1/10 or slightly worse getting paid. Not as keen on the 1 in 20 ratio ie a $5 ticket to a $109.

Whether it's a scam or not, I don't know, but it's really not good for a poker room that, from time to time, is knocked down and all the tournaments that are being played are canceled, as it's not the first time that this has happened.
It's very strange this time that it happened right at the start of the Bencb freeroll.
