Poker Stars free $5

#1 03-11-2007, 3:07 PM

So Poker stars gave me $5 for free to play with in their real money games, but it will only last for 14 days. So my question is, do I show proper BR management and only play the games that I should, ie the .10 and .25 tourneys, or do I throw caution to the wind and sit down at a .01/.02 game and hope I can catch a good run of cards to build it fast before the money gets taken away?

play it properly at low level and if your time starts to run out then go for the gusto. jmo

are you sure they're going to take it back or maybe you only have 14 days to start playing with it . I got $10 at Ultimate bet once with a time limit , but they never took any back . win or lose , just play $5 worth of games and I don't think they will take it back whatever you have left. good luck

As Mike Caro points out, the smaller/more replaceable your bankroll is, the more willing you should be to risk it. It really doesn't much matter what you do, so have fun!

well thats pretty awesome, i think the same as it is small amount and u didnt put it on there, so if it were me i would just go big and have fun with it and if u play well, then maybe u will build it enough to the point where BRM will make sense IMO
