I'm trying to build a BR from scratch in freerolls. I actually won $10 in one about a month ago, built it to $30 playing .05/0/10 NLHE cash, then moved up to 0.10/0.25, and lost it all. I think I jumped limits way too soon with that BR.
So I am rebuilding using freeroll tournaments. Anybody here use that technique successfully?
Once you manage to win a min deposit of $10 is where you should focus on slowly creating your bankroll.
Playing in cash games is not a wise decision if building a bankroll [IMHO], you have no wiggle room in cash games.
I myself have slowly built my bank roll to just over $100 from with approx. $1.62 in freerolls, I initially would only play in extremely low buyins ranging anywhere from $0.10 to $0.50, after building to a bankroll of over $25.00 I would jump into the $0.25 spin & goes, and after increasing to the $50 range I started to focus on $1.50 6 and 9 player MTT.
Whenever I take any serious bad beats in any given day is where I would force myself to step away from the game for a day or two and just play in our daily freerolls here at CC.
So if you are serious in building your bankroll, you need to learn how to implement self-control and serious Bank Management.
Good luck with your quest.
