More players in a tournament than online?

[CompulsiveGambl]

Players remaining in the tournament is 422 but the online player base is 290 with 635 unique registrations and most players are offline on tables idk if these are real players or bots will anyone play on a site like this

I can't imagine playing any tournament that only pays 5 spots.
And... what site is that?

It's an Indian site (Adda52) most popular in the country but feels like fraud whenever I notice something and tag them on Twitter that thing suddenly change like when I noticed few players always being on top of leaderboard but no data available on sharkscope and similar website a few day later they were available and to my surprise they've won millions and we haven't even heard about them lost around 200k inr (2000$) but now I only play freeroll as global poker sites are not available and gg poker is here with the name natural8 but it's also fishy like others we play against global players but we lose a lot more than win seems like a regional issue they're treating it more like business as to the free rolls we only get 30 players on natural 8 (have a look)

The most reasonable explanation is that the online players are from a different type of poker games, i.e. cash tables.

I highly doubt there are bots on freerolls with such a payment structure. Would be quite a waste of money.

Often you have a lot of sitouts in such games when registration opens very early and people simply sign-up because it's free and they're not even sure if they can play it or not.

....yeah that looks a little crazy, don't think I'd be worried about bots in a freeroll but the payouts are

not really worth the time, I think I'd be forced to stick with the Natural8 site if

there was no other option👍

...it seems unproductive to me to continue playing on this site...it's better to play on others...what I like to play most is pokerstars...
