kybill--I'm impressed. It took me 24 hours to blow my free $10. 
pager23--That sounds like my play in a cash ring game yesterday. I had A8, raised on the button, and had a couple of callers. Flop comes Q88. Checks to me and I make a small continuation bet. Small blind calls and everyone folds. Queen on the turn and the small blind goes all-in. I fold.
Normally I would be thrilled to have a full house but not if someone has the higher trips.

Just got my $10, I'm signed on as Evil99. I'll give her a whirl when I get home from work.

I got the free $10 up to $221 today by winning 3 straight $10 shorthanded sngs to boost it an additional $75, but then took 3rd in back to back shorthanded $10 sngs so I am at $199 even....I then cashed out $40 (no hassle whatsoever).
I'm telling you guys, do the $5-$10 shorthanded SNGs!!!

I logged in last night and signed up for the free $10. I played one of the massive $5-$0.50 SNG's and somehow lost in about 25 minutes. Crap, not enough money left to enter another SNG. -$5.50
Well, I suck at ring games - haven't gotten the strategy down at all - but somehow won a nice pot and got back to about $8.
Played a 10 person 5/.50 and won. +25
Played a shorthanded 5/.50 turbo SNG, 2nd place. +7.50
Played another 10 person 5/.50 and won - +25
So after about three hours I, I'm up from $10 to $49.50. And Vlade will be happy with that.

Except the part about winning money at the ring game. I went through my remaining $4.50 faster than I can blink!
ME + RING GAME = NO $  |

Does the promo still work for you guys? I have tried it myself, and it still does not yet work. Thanks

**Update:
I am up to $380 from playing the $10 shorthanded SNG's.
If anybody didn't know this....The $10 free counts as a real money deposit, so if you get your player points up to 250 (which I just did) they give you an additional $75 free!!
