I also passed. First attempt 23,880 ( 23.9bb ) !!! There are a few more attempts, I hope to improve the result!!!! Good luck to everyone!!!
Nice result! Had the same plan but apparently we can't do that. As soon as you qualified for day 2 you're blocked from registering in day 1.
At least GG doesn't let me register for day 1 again....

Yes, it may be misleading in the day 1 lobby but the terms clearly state you cannot participate again.

i think pokerstars also had a 1m $ freeroll in the past , some years ago , or was it a centroll . it used to have better freerolls and offers , now its worse because of the russians' absence

Another unlucky end to run in happy new year freeroll.

Lost with AK in the BB vs KQ vs QJ for a 5.8k pot with around 2k players left with a jack on the river.

Try again tommorow

I've only had one go so far, not had much time, and I missed them tonight too.

So, this is now fact, once you are in with a stack that's your only go at it? Seems like you have a nice Stack G tho, plently to play with, or at least wait until loads of players just drop like flies!! haha

Yes that stack is indeed very nice :)
Good conditions for day 2 .
And yes once you qualify for day 2 that's it, no more tries or improving your stack

Finally qualified in the 4th attempt!

Only with about 13 BBs but I should not complain. I got lucky in the important hands:
  • When I called a jam early with KK. They had AJ and rubbish. Flop came A 😫 - K 🤩 - A 🤔. Luckily no Ace or jack on following streets. 😁
  • I jammed A5o from BN with 10 BBs left and about 1k players but BB woke up with QQ 😱. Luckily turn brought my Ace. 😄

Guys, please explain to me, does anyone know why in the "ThanksHoldemPlayers" tournaments some people have a stack of 100,000 from the beginning of the tournament and some have only 10,000?🙄

Because it is "random" based on the daily gifts. Usually you start with 10k but you can also get more in the present.

I only get 10000 stack every time, seem to me they reward active players with better stacks, not sure how random it is

And as well in this freeroll I am running like a boss.
Every single time when it comes to the "luck" or "no luck" spots where you just can´t fold anymore I am out instantly.
Terrific.
Eight more chances.

Congrats to those who were able to enter in the day 2! I've just read the last page and just saw @Andyreas make it.
I just played once but wasn't too close.
May I ask those who qualified for how long the tournament lasted?
In GG you can check the lobby. There it says the average duration of each regular game.

this is weird. to make such a big gap in stacks from 100,000 to 10,000 those who have 100,000 may not play and will get into prizes
