I just found out about Daily Dollar about two weeks ago. Daily Dollar Satellites might be good for building up bankroll. I tried the satellite. It's 30 cents to get in, 9 player sng. Top 2 places get $1 in tourney dollar or 95 cents in real money. 3rd place gets 25 cents. I would say this is a great way to build up bankroll if you have very little cash. I played on daily dollar, got 39th place, won 20 bucks. My initial cost was 30 cents and my profit was 20 bucks. But I realized that you can unregister after you win the satellite and you can get your money back. I was bored and joinedI was so close to getting big money. I won the satellite again, won it but decided to unregister because I wasn't going to be home 5pm pst. I got $1 in tourney dollar. I used that and played several more satellites, my tourney dollar is at $6 right now. But as soon as you win, you MUST UNREGISTER. I won a satellite once and then forgot to unregister and won another satellite, i didn't get anything since I was already registered. Once again, if you plan to do this, you MUST UNREGISTER after you win if you wanna keep playing more satellites to win.

I've tried the Daily Dollar yesterday.It's a very very long tournament(2700 players registered).We started at 21.00(Italian time) and at 01.00 we were still 270 players in it.I had to go to work in the morning so I said I've qualified for 30 cent so the 7,50 dollar winning for the 260th place is OK.
Good experience tho.:):D

I'm not talking about the actual tournament. I'm talking about the satellite. Try playing satellite. Buy-in is 30 cents. 3rd place gets 25 cents and top 2 places get $1. Unless someone really looks into details of all types of tournaments, most people don't know about this. They only know regular $1 sng. But for people who need money real fast, this is a perfect satellite for many reasons.

Reason #1: Very cheap. Payout structure is good. 30 cents buy-in, 3rd place gets 25 cents and top 2 places get $1 dollar instead of 50/30/20 where only 1st place pays off.

Reason #2: LOTS of people are reckless. They play like pure donkeys and they know they're doing it themselves because it's just small 30 cent tourney that they don't care about. I can guarantee you, 4 people will get eliminated within first 5 minutes or so. I itmed very often by folding EVERY hand except extremely premium hands such as AA, KK, QQ. In beginning, I even fold AK, AQ, AJ, JJ, TT because there are lot of wreckless idiots who go all in crazy.

This is incorrect. If you're registered for a tournament and then you win a satellite to that tournament you will just get T$. On full-tilt I sometimes win 2 or 3 satellites in a day to the 50-50 and I never unregister. I'll play the 50-50 and then it gives me the rest in T$.

As Wes pointed out, this is not correct. If you win a Satellite to a tournament that you are already registered in, then you will receive an email telling you that you won and since you were already registered, they have credited your account for the value in Tournament dollars. I do this quite often as well, playing 5 or 6, 30cent satellites at a time. After I have won the first one for the day, I just leave it as registered so the rest go into my Tournament dollars. If you don't unregister before the daily dollar starts though, and are not around to play it, then you will lose it as it will enter you and you will just get blinded out. So if you don't intend on playing the daily dollar, make sure you do unregister at some point.

When you have a micro bank roll sit at a cash game table and leave whenever you have a significant profit at the table... you dont want to push your luck... plus if you sit at any single table too long other players will get good reads on you making it more difficult to make a nice profit

Great payoff for such a small investment. Way to go!!
As the other posters mentioned here.. it is 'not true'.. you don't have to unregister prior to playing in another satellite.... if you win the satellite for a tourney you're already entered in, your winnings will just get automatically added to your T$'s.
Also, if you win the satellite but don't want to play in the tournament, just unregister (as you've suggested) but don't bother converting to 'real $'s' and lose 5%.. just keep it in T$'s for any SNG's or MTT's you might want to play.
Also, in case you're not too familiar with T$'s, you can enter say a $5+.50 game using 3T$'s and the rest in real$'s (or some combination of the 2.. .doesn't have to be all one or the other).

when i don't have as much time these sng's are nice for some fun. the daily dollar freerolls are fun too. and another good thing is the daily dollar tourny at 6:15 or 20:15 isn't a rebuy. which could discourage someone who couldn't rebuy and add-on.
good luck and peace :) :)

I think the best way of building up your bankroll is playins 0.25 cents 90 man tourney.
12 positions are paid , and not bad paid.

try it people with micro bankroll, the money will come and u will learn by just 0.25 cents

See you in the tables

Why not just go to the money tables with such a small bankroll. I think the minimum at Full Tilt is like 40 cents to play at the lowest limit. That's what I do to build up my bankroll from such a small amount.

I also found out about the Daily Dollar recently, it must be new. I like the idea... I played the freeroll satellitte where you start with just 300 chips but didn't win an entry.
