Why is good to be higher in ranking? does the ranking give entries for other tourney?

They havent worked that out yet, i think this is just a trial run. However, im sure they will do something.

Yes, I'm quite sure of that too.

It would be a lot better if we had Novice Freerolls, Beginner Freerolls And Expert Freerolls. Now i know your status on this site has nothing to do with your poker playing, but i think that if we had the freerolls set up as this, most of the really bad donks would be playing in the Novice freeroll and would barely be any in the expert level. The play would be better. You would actually have a chance to play some serious poker. Not some lotto bs where you go all in and chase the stupidest hands to only suck out. I HATE YOU DONKEYS!

I hate the donkeys too Ron, and although I can see where you're coming from, I for one would hate the thought of being forced to play with any donks just based on how long I've been a member which makes me a beginner. And I'm sure this is how a lot of the novice/beginners, who are very good players would feel too hun.

Something does need to be done though, what, I don't know but....
