I started out playing freerolls and it took about 3 weeks or so to get up to $100.

It took me a long time to win my first 100 (about 9 months) and I donked it away as I always do. LOL. Let's just say that there haven't been a lot of cash outs for me. Poker is an enjoyable pastime for me so I don't mind not getting rich.

In 2011, playing freerolls I won on pokerstars 290$. It took me about half a year, I studied poker and played.

I wish I could have won $100.00 in 3 weeks from freerolls, geesh Phil Ivey watch out :eek:

I have only been playing about 7/8 years, and I'm sure I'll win $100.00 one day. Good luck to the rest of you.

lol..what a good question :) ...lol

To be honest I am sure I was down like 500 4 sure... Its the price of learning.

I wonder how many people are actually capable of getting their first 100 from only FRR and how long it took them

I'm trying to make my first $ 100 freeroll, I'm quite recently and so far all that has won, I lost) I think you can use freerolls you can win $ 100 in a few months, and if you're lucky, the faster)

I honestly have not yet reached my first $ 100.
I only made a first deposit of $ 15 and for lack of experience I lost it because of poor management of my bankroll.
I've kept playing MTT freeroll, and Sit & Go where I've had good rewards but I still do not get my first $ 100.
When you have a bankroll as limited as mine, the key is to know how to manage and have a good strategy to play.:deal:

i havent made it yet.....prolly invested like 600 dollar in the last ten years, 4 years ago i quited after playing everyday for six months and went broke, i had deposited 50 dollars.

Just got bk to the game, for couple of weeks, deposited 50 dollar again and my bankroll is growing, i play 5$ buy in cash games atm.....hope to reach 100 dollar in a week or 2 and step up to the 10 dollar buy in stake...

so far so good, also found some leaks in my game, so i feel im stil learning.

i remember i won several Multi table tournaments, sat even at a final table for a tickect to go play live in madrid, looking bk i think i had a Lucky run XD, but in the end KK vs AA got me out at 9th place, it started with a freeroll satelite, i had won, but i never played in a casina XD

I played in freerolls and won money before making a deposit. So I made hundreds of dollars without actually losing in money.

I won my first $100 from the absolute zero. I won $2.50 from the open skill league.And then I played some 0.10 on Pokerstars, took down some and I final tabled a $0.27 ,I finished in 6th place for $30. And after that Pokerstars has launched the million freeroll and there,again, I was lucky and won another $54!! So in that way I won my first $100.

After that huge achievement I lost literally everything haha. I redeposited once another ~$100 and since then I play with those money. I have a strict BR management[ofc i used to have in the first time,but I got crazy for some weeks.]

Online I think I lost around $300 before I made my first $100 and it took about 3-4 months. Live I played 1/2 and that first night I won $450 but to be fair I had been playing online for years before I first played live

Difficult for a player to take losses.

Being honest, my first month was a paradise.

In 2014 I deposited about 100 dollars and made more than 2k direct (3 days maximum) .... playing SNg hyper turbo six max limits 7/15/30/60 was increasing, had no notion of BR strategy, was In the soul and playing with friends at home.

I rescued part of this gain, but the fact is that I lost in these 3 years much more than I did in this tide.

I do not even play those hyper Sngs anymore.
