Yes, you might say it right. I do not participate in 2 freeroll in an hour.  Maybe it has stopped you from participating. But at times I am participating in the tournament, no problem. You can try again, if the results are the same, you can use the mobile. But more than one tournament is not held in the hour and each freeroll has a minimum of one hour interval. Are you trying to join the tournament after? That means one end after one others.

Will the mobile change anything since the login credential is the same both on web and mobile. I think its best to wait a little while then try again.

[BRINIRHA]

What? You can join as many as you want. If you couldn't register for another there is something wrong at your end. Looking at the two running now there are many players in both.

No, you can't join as many as you want, because you can't register for any more hourly freerolls after joining one. I just played one, and as soon as I got knocked out, I looked at the next one to see if I could register, but I don't see the option, check:



So, it's not an issue on my end, but you can't play more than one hourly freerolls a day, it could have different rules for private freerolls, etc., but when it comes to hourly freerolls of the platform itself, one user can only play one of them in a day, and I'm pretty sure that's the case because I have checked this more than once.

Someone else should also check and then let us know if they are able to register and play more than one freerolls per day, because I'm unable to do that, and I'm pretty sure that's the rule, because we have that rule in every platform.

Please read the image I've circled again.



It looks like you can't register because registration hasn't opened yet. Registration will open after the time indicated in the image.

I think I'm interested in this too. Maybe I should sign up for SWC and try the freeroll. Although I'm not usually a fan of tournaments, I'm quite curious now.

Finally, after participating in several freerolls, I was able to finish in 2nd place. Honestly, I'm very happy to reach this position, because there were really quite a lot of players participating in this competition. So being able to finish in second place is really very happy for me.

Congratulations on your win in the Freeroll! I'm so happy that one of the members of this forum managed to take second place. It's certainly not easy to beat so many people in a tournament, as it tests mental toughness, patience, and more.

[Kalaea]

Friday frenzy is 250 chip entry. So 1st and second got a 250 chip ticket and 3rd got 175 chips. Not sure why you think that's a problem?
If they got 3 more entries it would have paid 3 tickets. Every 250 chips in the prize pool is one ticket.

Initially, the prizes announced for this (qualification) tournament were 2 seats for the Friday F., and only that!

This qualification tournament was both Tickets & Money entering, So the exceeding the pool value from buying entries and re-entries is added as addition to the prize pool!

The initial prize pool value here was 500uBTC, (2 x 250 Seats)!  Suppose there was more money entered players as the cash add was more than 250 ?? Here, the third place would were profiting more than two firsts.. !

you get it ?



PS: You should merge your previous two posts, you can make a separation between them with the tag ([ hr]) !  (Forum rules)
 
 

Yes, I get it. You don't.
As I said in my post, there is a ticket for every 250 chips in the prize pool. The first 2 are guaranteed. For instance if there are only 20 or fewer entries the prize is 2 tickets, 1st and 2nd. If there were 25 entries (625 prize pool) there would be 2 tickets and 125 chips for third. If there were 31 entries, then prize pool would be 775 chips and there would be 3 tickets @ 250 for 1st-3rd and 4th would get 25 chips. You can never get paid cash prize bigger than 225 chips. Hope that is clear enough.

No, what you say is wrong. A person will be able to participate in the freeroll tournament for the day if desired and no rules will be required. I don't know it may be your problem. Because I play five to six freeroll tournaments in almost a day, which is possible for me. Because most of the time I participate in Tournament with mobile devices. I don't join through PC.

That rule would be written out somewhere players were limited to one free roll per day. I haven't seen such a rule and as long as there is nothing like tickets that you have have in your account, I don't think players are limited that way. I can't remember whether I have played more than one free roll at the same time, but at least I am not aware of the limit. Probably would have known about it if I ran into those problems.

Really? Then why am I not able to register for the second freeroll after playing one? I thought the platform was not allowing me to register for more than one tournament for the day. If you are able to do it, then I should have the option to register as well. Or, maybe it's happening because you can't register for more than one within the same hour? I will have to check that as well then.

@Kalaea, sorry bro, maybe I was wrong, but I wasn't allowed to register for more than one freeroll tournaments in a day. I will check again later today, and see if I can register and play more of them, and if it allows me, then it simply means that you can play more than one, but you can't register for them within the same hour, even though I don't see any logic in this, but anyway, I'll check later.

I recently participated in several freeroll tournaments in a single day. There were even times when when I lost the previous tournament I immediately signed up for the next one when registration for the next tournament was open. And usually the next freeroll tournament opens half an hour before the tournament starts. That's what I learned after participating in several tournaments at Swc.

  ...  If there were 31 entries, then prize pool would be 775 chips and there would be 3 tickets @ 250 for 1st-3rd and 4th would get 25 chips. You can never get paid cash prize bigger than 225 chips. Hope that is clear enough.

     250 you mean?!  That is the reason?

  Why doesn't everyone share the cash pot equally/or proportionally to their position?

 Here the prizes were (250 value) entries/tickets for another tournament, do you mean that on a regular tournament the cash benefits/exceedance is transferred to the next winners to never exceed the prizes amounts annonced ?

No, I mean 225. If the cash portion gets to 250, it becomes a ticket, and any further cash portion goes to the next place. That's how satellite tournaments work. You can only win up to the value of a ticket to the target tourney.

Cash tourneys pay out the prizefund proportional to the finishing positions. Satellites are different.

I tried to join the freeroll tournaments that were available. And I tried to sign up in a row. That is when I lost the tournament at 7.30. then I signed up again for the next tournament. Even though this was my first experience in Swc, I knew right away that we could indeed enter the tournament consecutively at every hour.

But I haven't tried whether it's possible if I still play at the previous freeroll table and then try to register for the next freeroll tournament.
I haven't tried that yet.

But now I understand that playing in freerolls does train patience. Although I don't feel the tension that I do when I play in cash games, I'm starting to understand the fun in freerolls and tournaments alike. which followed many participants. Even up to 100 or more, which makes me even only able to last until ranking 30s only.

It might be interesting if there was a tournament between bitcointalk users who player poker.

There are some poker tournaments organized here on the forum and reserved to forum users but I don't feel posting the link here is fair because they are held on different sites from SWCPoker : but if you have a quick look at games and round section (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=71.0 ) you can see some of them.

This must be it. The opening time must have aligned with Alone055 dropping out of his first freeroll.
I'm not aware of there being any restrictions on registering for multiple freerolls and such practice would be rather unusual.

(...)
I think if that's the rule of 1 free roll to join per day, it's a fair rule so that every user will get a chance to join any of them and to avoid abuse.

I disagree. The fundamental purpose of having freerolls is not to offer some sort of giveaway, where everybody gets their equal share of winnings, but to provide players with a risk-free chance to either test the site (if they're new to it) or test their skills in a tournament, or just to have some fun while having nothing at stake. As such, it would be counterproductive to impose any limits on participating players. The more the better.

[Alone055]

My bad, guys. It seems that I was trying to register before the registration was open, and there is basically no rule or restriction for a player to join and play multiple freeroll tournaments on SwC, which I think is great, because I clearly remember trying different poker platforms, like Stake, and a new poker platform that was announced recently in the forum, I don't remember the name right now, but they also only allow you to play one tournament per day.

Freeroll tournaments are great ways for people to practice their games, I never play them to make money, because that's only going to waste your time and you won't get much out of it, even if you manage to win multiple freerolls in a row, which isn't that easy, you will still only make a few bucks, and that is going to take hours of your time, which I don't think is worth it. That's why, I agree with @pawel7777, that freerolls are not actually to build a bankroll, but they are only available for players to try the platform, or play some poker when they either don't want to spend money yet, or have no balance at that time.

Thanks for the info... I'll check it out later.

Well, that seems to be it. I tried playing a few more times and registering multiple times a day, and there really doesn't seem to be any limit at all. You can even play at two tables simultaneously. For example, if you're playing a cash game and a tournament at the same time. Sometimes tournaments can take a long time.

I think that I didn't say any giveaway at all but a chance to join for everyone to have equality. Because one can abuse it from joining all of them at the same time since it's allowed to have multiple tabs with different set of tables. So that limits one from doing all of the available free rolls which is a good rule. But, I agree to you that all free rolls aren't really going to make you money, it will take time until one table is set and finished and also the prizes are not that much. It's all about everyone having time to have fun and those prizes if ended up in a good rank is a simple incentive.

As such, it would be counterproductive to impose any limits on participating players. The more the better.

I think it's a good idea because the last one I participated got 80+ participants. There might be a very good reason why they are allowing it.

[Kalaea]

They are not much use for building a bankroll, but they are a way to start a bankroll from nothing if you are new to the site or have no btc. Once you win a few chips you can move on to the no=rake tables and gradually grind it up. It takes time and patience, but you can eventually end up with decent money over time.

It's a good start and I agree that if you stand out the most and one of the winners, those prize chips is good enough to start to join the other tournaments like the daily crumb with starting 10 chips. Anyway, I've joined the Hourly Freeroll - NLH [200 Chips] and there were around 130+ people that participated the tournament and I've ended up I think 62nd place.

I think 130 people is a huge number. And that means more and more people are joining the current freeroll tournament. It definitely takes more than 3 hours to complete the tournament. Maybe even more than 4 hours. Even with 80 people, it usually takes around 2 to 3 hours. I find it challenging to find a freeroll with that many participants. Unfortunately, every time I enter a freeroll, there are usually not many participants. Perhaps that's because I chose the Badeucy FL freeroll, which is currently running. And I lost too early there.

You can't yet, you need to have at least 50+ krill, and to get that krill, you need to be active in many tournaments (not free ones).

Yes, that's certainly a lot and was surprised to see because I thought that it's going to be around 80+ like the last one I've participated with. But it seems the word is spreading about SWCs having more free roll tournaments. I just join it when the table is about to start and they flock on the last minute seeing those numbers together with the last registrants.

You will need 50 krill need to talk through the chat. If you don't have, you will not be able to answer. It is possible to achieve 50 krill very easily. This is why I will suggest you to play Cash Game. Because Cash Game is the fastest krill can be achieved. However, tournament can be achieved but not too much. And the more you get the Krill, the more your rank will be.
