What’s ya’ll, it’s Maniac1130 from Americas Cardroom. For those of you who don’t know, ACR has Freerolls On Demand which pretty much play all day. A new tourney starts when 270 players are registered. Late registration runs for 30 minutes or 3 levels.

So here’s how their leader board works: for any player that makes it to the last 10 players receives points. If you take first place you get 10 points, 2nd place 9 points and so on. The leader board updates every day and it runs for 1 week. So every time you place in the top 10 you accumulate points. The top ten players with the most points by the end of the week receive a free $55 dollar tourney entry ticket, and first place gets a $215 tourney ticket for their Sunday $50,000 GTD.

I personally think this is amazing, especially for anyone trying to come up in poker. Boys and girls this is our shot at building a bankroll, increasing our skills/experience and our chance to compete to be the Kings and Queens of the Micro stakes. Ok, maybe I went a little too far on that one, but in my mind, I want to be #1!

Last week I came in 17th place overall. Which, last week, was my first week competing for the leader board. This week, I am currently in 5th place, and the week ends Friday (tomorrow) at 11:59 ET.

My goal is to take 1st place and win that $215 tourney ticket to compete in the bigger leagues. I know I can do this. I owe a lot of credit to TPE, specifically Derek, Diego, Marc, DannyN13, and of course The Bigdog! Thank you guys for this amazing site. It has propelled my game to levels I never before imagined.

Wish me luck. Hope to compete with some of you in the future

TPE Nation, Woot-Woot!!
