I deceided to post my strategy for building up alot of playchips so you can play the 40$ freeroles on fulltilt which cost 500,000 to play.

First you start off with 1000 chips and you can reload every 5 min if you lose.

Start off by being a donk and go all in every 5 min until you get 2000 chips.
Next...
Go to the sit n go 2000 6 person table and play those donks but be tight with your chips and try to atleast get 2nd for profit. Usually will win this everytime if you play decent.
Next... Now i have 7800 chips because magically won 1st place lets say

3 table 2000 6 person
Next... After maybe winning 1st and 2nd. and lose on the 3rd i now have 12000 chips

6 Table 2000 6 person you will probably most likely if your decent double your money here. Easy seriously.

Now you won half of those and now you have a total of 23400
Next... I

2 Table the 10,000 play chip 6 man, and then work my way up to 6 tabling 10000 6 man and so on....

Ok now i think you understand by now the strategy i use to work my way up to the 100,000 play chip tables and i keep doing the same thing over and over.

I know its play chips and all and your probably thinking WHO CARES!! LOL
But this is for people who want to play the 40dollar freerole on fulltilt with 500,000 play chips. Its a good way to get started on a real money bankroll.

Is there any other strategys that you guys have that works easier for you? :call:

Do the 10,000 6 man SNG's fill often enough to 6 table? I've never played play chips so just wondering.

Hmmm...well I like your strategy and I wish you luck. I already have a BR and could never bring myself to get involved with play chips. Not knocking you or anything, it's just not me.

How many hours are you talking about to accumulate enough chips to play one $40 freeroll? And then you still have to cash in order to get any money. So it seems likely the hourly EV is mere pennies.

This might be okay in terms of the stated goal of playing said freeroll, but isn't building your BR at a decent rate more important? And it seems like a poor approach for this purpose.

I did this and I don't think it is a great idea, because the play chip freeroll is for such a small amt. of money. You'd have to spend a lot of time getting millions of chips for it to be worth it.

I was once a champion for play chip play. It can teach one the basics of real poker, but it only gives one a fighting chance in real poker, at best.

I still play play money games if only to keep track of whats happening 'down' there. I do this when the cards are running real cold, or I am missing the ground when I fall.......

Suggest you do your play money learning as fast as you possibly can and move on......

Yeah it does take more than a few hours but once you get the proper bankroll for playchips its really easy to make 500,000 chips once you have 5,6 million chips. So then you get to play a freerole with not that many people in it to start your bankroll. I wouldnt suiggest doing this if you already have a bankroll.

You didn't give any "strategies", you just said, "I win this, so now I have x amount chips, then I came in second, and now I have x amount of chips!"

And you don't need to play the 250 play chip sit n gos, you can register in 4 of them, reload your play chips, and then unregister and then you have 2,000, and then 5 minutes later do the same thing to get to the 3,000 chip step tournament.
It only takes a few hours to get to the 500,000 chip tourney anyway.

(In Soviet Russia, strategy writes you!)
