Is anyone entering this?
I'm going to try and get in via some satellites later.

There will probably be like 10k players in it by time late registration ends but it's worth a shot, prize money should still be decent

Here's hoping 🤞

Well, according the Total prize pool - it should have 20k entries, so maybe you are wright: about 10k players. Won my entry in a freeroll one week ago:

I didn't make it to these tournaments because I was celebrating the continuation of the new year, someone won such major tournaments in the New Year series or everyone is unlucky after a drunken party:)

I didn't even bother trying to win a ticket for this one since I was not going to be able to play it because I was going to be with family on January 1st. I would have tried to if it had been be scheduled for a different day.

I did opt-in for both New Year Challenges. Need just 2 more cards to complete the board.

What you mean you need 2 more cards to complete board?

Thinking about it, although I prefer knockout events especially in high numbered tourneys cause you have to invest a lot of time with likely no pay off.

Trick is to pick the right tourney with good blind levels and then enter just before late registration ends

None taken. It's a poker promotion. A lot of poker rooms do it, as well as many different businesses around the world that want to attrack people into choosing their brand over their competition.

All poker rooms do it now a days, but it's gotten out of control. You may think this website is different but it's not. They make their revenue in conjunction with gambling giants by pushing and promoting their sites. It's the only reason websites like this survive

There's a specific group of people that are making a living off this website right off the back of people like us and I don't think that's right.

I have tried tto play some cheap sats , some freerolls to get a ticket for cheap , but I was no lucky until now . I could play some veryn low buyin games , but I can no find time until now . I hope to find some time and play , at least 2-3 games , I think the prizepools of some of them are not bad
