Who managed to make a bankroll since winning the Freeroll?

I managed to take first place in Freeroll. But later I came to the conclusion that at the box office again zero.)Try again. On Deposit there is no money. More precisely, there is no possibility.

Stay tuned. Came third in a CC freeroll last week and attempting to build a bankroll from there. So far so good. Wish me luck!

Way to go, folks! I've made it from freerolls and never played poker for my own money and I believe it's the only good way to go.
I can explain why.
Of course, if you building your bankroll just from freerolls it's pretty long and rocky way, but on the other hand, it's time you learn to play poker. Learn how to beat fish in those freerolls (and it's well enough of them in there) and later you could use those skills for your more serious buy-in games. There will be often one or another fish at your table and you better be prepared how to extract most money/chips from him.

Also, if you play freerolls, it's a risk-free adventure, so the only thing you pay is your time and you're actually learning at that time, so it's a win-win situation.
Also by playing freerolls at the beginning instead of depositing, you're preserving yourself from becoming a loser, who just lost so many dollars at the beginning of his career, that he simply has no motivation to play that game further.

Another important point, if you play only for the money you did hardly earned from other poker games, you learn to respect your bankroll money and do play more responsible as if you could deposit any time.

I personally think that you're on the right way. Stick to bankroll management, keep grinding it up and learning to play this amazing game. If you really love it, you will be great some day.

Free rolls are a great way to start. I've withdrawn some funds so I'm back to playing with small single digit and double digit bankrolls and need to be "choosy" about the games played.

I finished 22nd/3000+ in 888's Sochi free roll today where if you finished first a nice poker vacation results. I also finished another free roll winning $1.85 without working it too hard. Echoing the prior post, manage your bankroll and keep grinding...and enjoy the challenge doing it.

Managed to built bankroll from freerolls multiple times, but to maintain it and increase it is not easier task. You have to be patient and choose correct games once you earn a decent BR.
For me a decent BR is between $40 and $70.

Here an example how it could be achieved within a single day, from 2 weeks ago: https://www.cardschat.com/f42/ufc-ko...1-22-a-432861/ (https://www.cardschat.com/f42/ufc-ko-poker-series-01-22-a-432861/)

3-4 years ago, I managed to build a bankroll from scratch thanks to freerolls. For 10 months, I increased my bankroll from $ 100 to almost $ 1,500. This is absolutely real.

#7 July 6th, 2019, 11:09 AM

yep, it's possibly and doable.
Many of us did it.

#8 July 6th, 2019, 7:54 PM

i spend some part on my freerolls earnings and the rest i accumalete it to withdraw

#9 July 6th, 2019, 9:16 PM

its very hard to be successful in free rolls i know this from experience but its absolutely possible to build from nothing it takes a lot of patience and thats literally all it takes and some skill id recommend using the money you use to buy cigarettes or treats for yourself and invest in a good bankroll thats if your serious about giving it a fair go and if you fail and keep failing id recommend learning from poker stars poker school its free to join and youll learn alot, Who managed to make a bankroll since winning the Freeroll?

As many people say, I think it's about finding the right freerolls. If after six hours of play you win $ 3, it does not make much sense. But if you play satellites and get tickets to bigger tournaments then entering the money can mean 100 dollars at a time, so you have a good base to start Who managed to make a bankroll since winning the Freeroll?

Freeroll on Cardschat is little bit hard but public freeroll are way harder!

Not always true, the freeroll for Canadians only, most players play really well. I played that tournament several times but it's not '' soft''. The 11 AM summer freeroll ( which is open to everybody) , I find it way softer.

I raised the maximum bankroll on freerolls to $ 50, and then continued to play normal tournaments and cash games and my bankroll was up to $ 1,000, I try not to replenish my money in poker and raise a bankroll in freerolls, but it takes a long time, so I wish Good luck in raising your bankroll!

In life, really to achieve everything yourself and absolutely free but it takes patience and work endurance and diligence.

Oh, there is.
But you only now learnt that spending is more easy than winning.
Keep winning and use bank roll managmeent not to spend!

As others have said: its tedious, but very rewarding.
I agree with Alienated: its the best way to go.

#16 July 8th, 2019, 9:12 PM

I am convinced that any player can build a bankroll from scratch playing freerolls. For this, you need only patience, discipline, good mood and free time. Who managed to make a bankroll since winning the Freeroll?

This is true. I agree with this statement as well. Discipline in bankroll management and proper training / study and it�s possible to build up from free rolls.

I started by playing freerolls until I had a bankroll of a little over $5. Then I added some 50 cent buy-ins while still continuing to play freerolls. I was cashing more often at the buyins and managed to build my way up to playing $1 then $2 now $3 buyins, but I also still play freerolls as often as I can. You always should. First, it helps keep your game really sharp because there is such a wide range of players there and you can learn to identify them all and more importantly, how to successfully play against them. Second, it's free money!

I am really sad that the CC ACR freerolls are not running. I look forward to when they come back.

Bankroll construction. I have a problem with that. But I'm learning on my own, and my game gets better over time. I'm not familiar with those who tell me. Just playing poker.)

Yeah, I stopped playing freerolls. When I had $ 5 in the till. Well, immediately there is the thought that you are ready to win normal money. And then surprise you at the box office again zero.) I don't remember if I played the ADC, but I remember that there were funny hints in the mobile app. The so-called tells. Thalls?)

Hi
Its a great feeling to win money out of a free roll.

I have won a few in CC too.

But as soon as I have some amount in my bank roll, I start losing it in cash, in buy ins of SNG and am back to a big fat ZERO.

Thats a play- win - play - lose - repeat format.

I do not intend to make my money for the game yet. I play for money with a freeroll. If everything goes well for me, it will not be necessary to contribute. And if it's bad to make it not worth it.

I made it to $ 50. But then, I fell to zero. The next day, I played sng for $ 1, for 180 participants. But the above did not work. Well, coach, I didn't, did it all on their own.

Would have to know where the satellites are.

Very good all comments I'm trying to build my bankroll in frerrool since I do not have money to invest in poker. the level is high but it 's okay because it makes me better when facing top players learn every day. I love this sport Who managed to make a bankroll since winning the Freeroll?

I love Poker

#29 July 9th, 2019, 8:22 PM

Hi.
I regularly increase my bankroll thanks to freerolls from our community. Obviously, this is a great way to gain experience, improve skills and build a bankroll.
Good luck.

#30 July 10th, 2019, 2:17 AM

I had it once that I won a freeroll only to lose the money that I won.

#31 July 10th, 2019, 2:57 AM

Yes, I've built my bankroll to over $100 a couple of times from freerolls so far. I'm back down to nothing now but I still have not lost a dime of my own money in the process. Keep plugging away and you can do it.

#32 July 10th, 2019, 4:29 AM

I, too, unfortunately I can not replenish the deposit, but I won a freeroll and my bank roll was topped up but in the end I made a mistake and there is no meat bankroll.

#33 July 10th, 2019, 5:05 AM

Good day, gentlemen. I have overcome freerolls of different sites, but I haven't built my bankroll yet. To start my bankroll I need only one step and not without your help the members of this great community. I need to play with the true connoisseurs of the greatest game of the planet, I need to play with You friends. I hope I will be allowed to Freeroll and I will learn from You Who managed to make a bankroll since winning the Freeroll?

#34 July 10th, 2019, 6:35 AM

When its a freebie, and I make it ITM after the grind, I reward myself, and play micro stakes. Usually I risk only what I won, but some days a player can't help dipping into the bankroll.

Sorry, but I have made mine from freerolls and I have never played with my own money

#37 July 10th, 2019, 11:43 PM

You can, but then the mission is to manage, which is the most complicated. In my case I was able to make a BR of 300 uss, but I withdrew it and I spent it. I had left 100 uss, but I had a bad management

Bankroll management. But we're real people, and sometimes we think we can. Actually, with money, it's boring to be cold.

Sometimes I don't have food. So make a Deposit, for the money on cigarettes. I haven't had money to buy cigarettes in three weeks. And I'm not kidding Robert. Your varriant doesn't suit me. GL)

#41 July 13th, 2019, 10:30 PM

I won a freeroll in 888, with ten dollars I grew it to 150 in the cash games, but then I had to take a break for poker. I'm curretly trying again, Won 10 dollars this week, currently at 25, I'll see if I can make it this time

#42 October 7th, 2020, 9:55 PM

I'm banking on the freerolls, when I get enough nerve or feeling good I'll start using it, but for now I brag to my husband I'm probably making more than him playing the lotto,

#43 October 7th, 2020, 11:02 PM

Hello, it is a complicated truck but it can be done, I currently have about 70 usd and I never deposit only freeroll, but I go little by little I do not want to rush, I want to pass the levels well so I can build my knowledge in depth

#44 October 7th, 2020, 11:18 PM

I have made many bankrolls from playing freerolls. It takes a ton of patients and grinding, sometimes it goes faster. I would say the goal is to build to around $100 then start playing micro tournaments and cash games.

it's very easy to do, my friend! after all, getting into prizes in freerolls at least within a week, you can fill $ 15-20 $ and from them freely develop in the MTT / CIS direction (the latter is preferable for low bankrolls and stability) I managed to climb like this 10 times or more. It's easy
