Pokerstars freerolls for 100 players only?

[Sebbour]

Nah, it's not. I've been following these for quite some time now. I'm not fully certain they're fully daily, but they are consistent. On the days of Monday-Friday when they do occur, they appear at 12:31, 13:01, 13:31, 14:01, 14:31, and 15:01 UTC/WET. None of them ever appear on a Saturday. On Sundays, they're at 11:41, 12:11, 12:41, 14:41, and 16:41 UTC/WET. They always appear 5 minutes before their start time, with a max capacity of 80, Starting Stack of 2000, 6 seats guaranteed, and 2-minute blind levels. There could be more than these, but these are the ones I've tracked in the past. This is for the Titans ones.

If you spot some other freerolls (other than Titans) in the future with limited number of players feel free to let us know. If I spot them I'm sure I will.

pokerstars sometimes surprises. it happens that without warning there are tournaments for 500 or 1000 tickets.
I once played in a tournament for 1000 tickets, where about 1200 players managed to register, unfortunately I did not take a screenshot. But here is a screenshot for 500 tickets, I also saw it just playing in the room)

Hi everyone!

If you play some freerolls at pokerstars... Have you noticed something weird about max players limit? I am now talking about Titans event satelite freerolls and about WSOP Chase satelite freerolls. Both I seen yesturday and today being normal with lot of people playing, but at some point of the day the same type of freeroll shows it's full while having just 100 players. I was ready to register to it too, but I was few seconds too late. Does anyone know about this? Maybe there is some specific times when those 100only freerolls appears? That looks very tempting to me to play freeroll together with just 100 people instead of thousands of people, but I just can't get to them in time, because I don't know exact times when they are.

That's what titans freeroll is all about. You have to write down which day and at what time it starts, because you can't sleep in advance. you need to register very quickly. It seems a bit long to me, because if you get to the first round, then comes the second round, then the third... but it's enjoyable

 

[Sebbour]

Thanks for this ! I always miss them

You're welcome.

I plan to post schedule on weekly basis so you'll have a place to check if they are available.

These freerolls are with 80 players (6 of them wins ticket for next round).

Yeah, they are enjoyable.

Yes, you cannot unregister if you win a ticket for next round. There is total of four rounds and fifth round is main Tournament which is held every Sunday on 20:15 CET.

First round - Freeroll - 80 players (6 wins ticket)
Second round - 5,5$ - 3 tickets at least
Third round - 55$ - 2 tickets at least
Fourth round - 530$ - 1 ticket at least
Main event - 5200$

Three or four weeks ago I managed to get to the third round and I spent whole afternoon (around 6 and a half hours) but it was fun. But the last two weeks I managed to second round only once.

 

[BOXING71]

I have never seen these tournaments. I think it is better than freerolls with more than a thousand people. Well, the fact that they play poorly there is not surprising. The tournament is free for many players who have just started playing poker. They often play with any cards

 

[Sebbour]

I think it is better than freerolls with more than a thousand people.

Yes, because time consumption is not high. One freeroll lasts around 20-25 minutes and the main goal in these is not about winning, it's about surviving.

Yes, I agree with you. I sometimes play to get a ticket for free. A ticket to a tournament that is expensive for me. I think it's not bad sometimes to win a ticket. For me it's like a lottery. Winning is luck

Here is the schedule for this week freerolls.

From February 28th - March 4th there will be one freeroll available for every Satellite exactly 1 hour and 4 minutes before start.

On March 5th first 2 freerolls will be available 2h24min (first) and 2h34min (second) before the start of this satellite - red rectangle
On the same day last 4 freerolls will be available exactly 34 minutes before start - yellow rectangle.

Disclaimer: last week I wrote that first two freerolls on Tuesday aren't available but they were. It's always possible that some freerolls don't appear as they should. This week freerolls are painted orange (last severeal weeks they were "painted" blue) on site and I don't know if it will affect timings. We shall see.

Hi Sebbour!
Thanks for the great overview. This makes it much easier to secure one or the other place in the satellite.
Where do you get this information from?

Hello,
I only know that with 80 players, but that's been around for a long time and the times don't always lurk around the same time! you have to be really fast when registering I've gotten a ticket there many times, I've also been in the last round. the last time only a few weeks ago 1050 dollar ticket unfortunately in the last tournament with 6 tickets 7th place 200 dollars and I was eighth unfortunately bubble boy! The most common times are always 31 or 41, but there are others that are sometimes purely coincidental

Thanks. I got information from my own observations only.

Those are actually with 80 players in which 6 of them get ticket for next round. Next week when I'll post schedule for that week I'll include that information as well.

I'm using this thread because I focus mainly on small freeroll satellites (freerolls with small number of players with increased percentage to go through to second round) like this one, where 6 of 80 players are rewarded.

 

[GERSteven]

Hello Sebor,
great work I only got that from my observations, so I thought there was a schedule. So far, these tournaments have only taken place in the afternoon German time 2-5 p.m. later I have not seen them yet.

Thank you.

First I tried to find the schedule (on PokerStars site and elsewhere) but when I couldn't find it I observed and figured it out myself.

I'm pretty sure there are more of these, lets call them, fast freerolls, so if you or someone else spots them feel free to post here information about them.

Thank you.

At least I have one member that appreciate it.

Freerolls with 80 players aren't available this week. But there is a new freeroll in town of PokerStars!

For now I don't have much information. All I know for now is:

• freeroll is with 100 players
• 10 of them wins ticket for second round
• second round ticket is for 0,55$ satellite
• this freeroll that already started was available 34 minutes before the start of 0,55$ satellite

This is schedule for tomorrow.

It could be that all freerolls start 34 minutes prior all marked satellites (red rectangle). When I will have more info I'll post it (for now it is only speculation). That's it for now.

 

[Niveau1]

Thank you for this new information. See you on the Tables.

 

[Sebbour]

• Fourth round is satellite 55$ - at least 2 seats
