How would you build a bankroll with a 5$ ring game ticket?

As some of you may know, FTP offers a reward system called EDGE, which consists in giving benefits for those who play a lot.
I`ve been bronze in the EDGE status for a while know, and there is a freeroll I can play in which 100 players get a 5$ ticket.
I´ve won the ticket twice, but both times I went bust in short time because I got too excited and played it in rush poker.

What would you recommend me to do if I were to win this ticket again?

Play the 1 cent 2 cent NL and if your stake gets over the initial $5 leave the table and everything over the $5 will go into your cash account. This is the best way to convert your ticket into real money.
At least that is what I do with these tickets. Haven't had one for awhile because I don't play the daily edge anymore.

I think in Rush will be more profitable, but you said that twice already lost, try open only one table nl2 not rush and play..

you cant really do anything with it manu..its $5 man....just take a shot at 2nl zoom or something and don't have any expectations of making it grow...if however it does grow then just keep playing.

to play even 1c-2c ring games you would need about $40

Each RGT guarantees you 0.39$ of real money even if you bust it immediately.

Play 2NL, non-Rush since you are a beginner. Watch other players and make notes on them. Play tight and wait for opportunities.

I think you can't have a bankroll with 5 $, you need more than that, but you can try your luck at cash tables !

Good luck !

To build a bankroll from that, you will need to get lucky and play very smart and conservatively. then play very llow micro stakes and start from there.
