i'm also trying to do that
its not an easy road, and waiting on freerolls is kinda boring, but if you really really think you're good enough to do it, then more power to you. I just hope if we meet in a showdown on Full Tilt that my luck is better than yours ;D
other than that good luck!

Ignore this.
Once you've acquired some freeroll winnings play whatever game your best at least 20buyins of said stake for cash games or 100 for tournaments.
If you don't have 20buyins for even $2NL just disobey Bankroll management this once and only once but do not repeat this.
You can get away with less than 20Buyins at utterly low stakes as your not going to have quite as much variance when your winrate is 20BB/100

i've played this freeroll. it usually has around 60 players. and top 18 cash. the pay out is very very flat. meaning you should be playing to cash and not to win. people say thats how to play a sit and go. but this is even more true here. 90% of the $40 is locked up when ITM. that means that 18 people are now trying to win an extra $4($3 more for 1st and $1 more for 2nd). this means when you got enough to cash just fold to the money. then shoot for the win. but this is a great way to build a BR from nothing. i was able to get $23 from this tourney alone. it does cost 500k in playchips that you dont get back win or lose. so i would recommend playing in this unless you had over 5m playchips in your roll. that way win or lose you got enough to replish the 500k you lost.

Don't listen to peacebrother. I made it up to $190 so far on Players Only starting with just 1 freeroll cash of a couple dollars, and it didnt take more than a few weeks to hit $50.
Just started trying to build my BR back up on Full Tilt. Had made it up to $20 back when I first started playing online poker, but lost it all just having fun playing poker after a nights of drinking. Built it back up a couple times, but did the same thing again. Had $1 in my BR on full tilt 2 days ago, now its up to $2. woohoo.
Its definitely possible, my friend went from $0 to $350 not that long ago. Then he went on major down swing and cashed out before he went below $200. Then he built his $10 back up to $200+ and cashed for another $140.
But watch out for tilt, which is where he lost big chunks of his BR. And also walk away from the games when you don't feel like playing or if you don't think you are going to do well. Time off from the game is never bad.
Good luck.

i guess everyone had that thought from the start to win with nothing , i myself tried to do it but i only ended up making deposits and losing. winning from a freeroll game really makes you think you can do it but it really can be done but i failed to do it. GoodLuck to you!

It can be done but not easily. Setting targets in life is important but it is also important that te targets you set are reachable. Not reaching a target is demorilising. I hope you do it and I wish you well but it is a tough one.

Youve got to play on alot more sites than one if you are goin to freeroll into that kind of money.Ive made $600 in 3 months just of freerolls, mostly private ones but it is scattered over 10 sites. Full Tilt is the hardest site to get freeroll money even the private ones have 900 people in them and the prizepool is to spread out You finish in the money and get 15 cents. Play on smaller sites with smaller feilds (Pitbull, Reefer,Carbon). I play in alot of games there with only 30-100 players and $50-$200 prize pools its easy to cash if you can play. You can make as much as in a Micro buy in game with no investment. Just my thoughts.
