MultiPoker’s got these twice-daily freeroll tournaments that get about 100-200 registrants, requiring a commitment of only 1-3 hours. Not bad. In fact, it’s possible to play both the 2PM and 5PM tournaments back to back. It’s good practice if you’re a limit grinder like me.
Unlike PokerStars, you don’t have to wait out a couple thousand maniacs who go all in with anything and suck out on your pocket rockets and cowboys; these players are relatively good and are more likely to respect your bets. It’s still a freeroll, however, so even a good player won’t mind risking his stack if he hasn’t invested much time in the game.
Also unlike Pokerstars, the top 20 spots get paid cash, which is a great overlay on the 100 registrant side, and still decent on the 200 side. Top spot gets $30, spots 11-20 get $1.
Yesterday I placed second and won twenty bucks.
