advise needed: Use freeroll money for money MTT

#1 5th February 2009, 9:26 PM

Hi

I play poker for a half year now and the last two months i freq. win money in freerolls (final table) on FT, Pokerstars, Bodog and UB. So i have know apr. 50 dollars in each of them.

I could play cash games which i did but lost some and won some and my BR isnt that big enough.
But what i really want to do is play MTT for like 10-20 dollars because if you reach lets say the top 20 then you can win a lot of money (for example the midnight mad. on FT)

Does any one of you guys do the same ?? Or is it maybe smarter to play 1 - 5 dollar MTT???

I think small 1$ MTT is good to begin with, and work your way up from there...
When you have about 100-200$ start with the 5$ tables and so on.

I think a BR that size might be ok for $1 MTTs but I'd still recommend playing $1-2 SnGs as they are a sweet source of income.

Play 2% of your banroll for MTT and 5% on SnGs you cant go wrong

well done for winning that much in freerolls. but the last thing you want to do is lose all your money and all the hard work you hane done to get it start at 1or $2 tourneys and sit and gos and if your as consistant as i think you are you can build up a nice bankroll and step up to bigger entries
