You still can't afford to play anything besides freerolls really. But, if you must play because it's burning a hole in your pocket, play as low as you can...

I'd try 50 cents on the 2/4 cent limit tables, playing VERY tight. Set a goal, e.g. 30 cents profit then get out. Go back to another table with your 30 cents then try to "stair step" it up the same way. When you increase your 6 bucks to $7.65, you've then won enough for (3) 50 cent sng's. When you've won enough for (3) one dollar sng's, try that level. If you lose at any time, go back to the previous step. I recently rolled 36 cents up to 38 dollars this way. I'm still working on builiding it from there and have had to step back several times so remember to focus on bankroll management and discipline yourself to consistently winning at cheap stakes before you proceed to the next level. Good Luck!

The best thing to do is to just sit on your money and keep playing freerolls. Six dollars can go pretty darn quick. You could catch a horrific run of cards and lose your whole bankroll in just a day's worth of games. Patience is key here. Sit back and enjoy the fact that you actually dodged the donks and cashed in a freeroll. free money :)

Like aliengenius said, if you must play, play for as cheap as possible.

I know but the thought of playing another 6hrs in a Ultimatebet freeroll is killing me............although i did win a 1000$ freeroll entry so you know that could help my BR if I cash........actually does anyone know how many people are usuall in that tourney........i thought about it and they run a freeroll every hour on UB practically and the top 30 go so ......
24hrs x 30=720 people x 6days(since the tourneys on sunday only 6 days)= 4320 people.this is if they run all 24 hours of the day...i think this formulas right lol!

They run the freerolls 7 days, I think. Sunday's going to the next week. Another variable is that you can't win two tickets, so multiple winners are cut out of the total. In any event, it is a bunch. I have played only one weekend event so far, and it is still a donkfest. You would thing the top 30 would have weeded them out, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
