I would be extremely careful on that site. About 3 years ago I won approximately $25 playing freerolls on their site. I then started playing cash & ran that up to $600. They refused to cash me out since I had not deposited anything. They said how do U expect to get something for nothing. I informed them that was the exact definition of a freeroll & why offer freerolls if when someone wins U won't pay out. For 30 straight days I called their shitty customer support & for 30 straight days I got excuse after excuse after excuse, but not my money

There are so many freerolls across so many sites now that you almost have to play them in quantity like a slot machine after first. Calling open shoves with AQ and medium pairs until at least the first half of the players are gone and hopefully have a workable stack that point.
Then you can tighten up protect ur chip stack and ladder up as far as your chipstack allows until your down to about 10 or 12 bb's then repeat the pattern lol.
I know it sounds crazy but if the amount of crazy people in those tourneys is more like craps than poker so ya just gotta try to get it all in early good and hope it holds out most of the time.

Also many people hate it but you can use a bit more clock when you are close to the bubble to allow other tables to eliminate players and ladder yourself into a min cash. I dont advise it in every situation bc it makes you a stooge but i cant argue with the reasoning.

Wow buddy, sorry to say u gonna have to play big fields on freerolls, and u have to up your game, if u wanna make some money, go to twitch, there u will find players that stream every day, and play MTT`s, i found this to be the fastest way to learn how to play MTT`s, once u get your mind in the game, ull start earning some dolaros, then take that money and start playing SNG, there u can make even more, coz they are a lot faster to play, just 9 players and u have to finish in the top 3 to make some money, but u need the experience, which at the moment u dont have, and thats why u are not able to make money from playing poker.

Stay away from casino, it is -EV game from the start.

As for the rest, play freerolls until you get enough to switch to cash.

Take a look at my blog (in the signature), 1st and last articles in particular.

Keep posting quality posts here & U will eventually be a member. On Thursdays on ACR they have $100 freerolls that it isn't too hard to cash in. If U can last about 1.5 hours in the tourney U can cash. Some poster said about Poker Stars & their poker training school & I heard it's a good avenue to learn, so try that also.

Thanks, but now i need wait 2weeks more for the validation of the account

Yes, that's my story too.. When I have big bankroll, I always start play BlackJack with small bets, but when I loose few times in a row, I'm in tilt, so I loose all my money... We can't play it when we want to be profitable players...

If do you don't know the casino like the poker why do you play?
I never play that.

So, you were up a $130 and then decided to go play casino games and risked it all?

And you say $1 is a lot in your country. If that's $130 is in your currency, then $130 = ~$5200 in US currency. If it was $130 in US currency, then that's $3.25 in your countries currency. Either way, you say a $1 is a lot where you're from and you had either $3.25 or $130. I don't understand why you would risk it playing casino games, especially if it was the latter.

Live and learn, I guess. If you can't deposit, then your best and only options are freerolls.

Yes, I'm from vzla. The salary in the month is 20$ i can't take one for play.
Here we are without food (all the country)
Without food, water, and electricity.
And play freerolls with price of 10$ with a players of 10k is very hard. The 1 recive 3 dollars
And is a pro ever win the same.

what country are u in?
I suggest you deposit like 100USD
it is because, with 100USD it is very easy to win 100 USD in a month.

yes, if 1USD have the same buyin power as in USA, you know , a lot of US player do not care about 1USD and it is very easy to win 1USD from them.

good luck.

Do not play freeroll in your case, it is not worth.
use 100USD play NL5 it is very easy to get 1.2USD per hour for open 6 tables.

Hi, im from Venezuela here deposit in the poker 20 dollars is deposit the salary of all the month.
And for a family live here need 100$ in the month.
Is impossible deposit that.
Here is a crime sell and buy $
All the people can get 300 in the year.
No more.
The currency here is the BOLIVAR
But we can't do anything with that.

cardschat gives away $400 a week in the freerolls , four freerolls at $100 each.
Monday thru Thursday. the biggest one barely has 200 people and pays top 20, the other one has 182 with 140 sit outs
but only pays 6, the other two get about 80 players each ( or less ) and pay top 15 or so each site.
oh that's for American players there's even more for ROW. just a thought :) best of luck whatever you try :)

casinos are the worst

I dont believe that any player who is serious about building their bankroll would visit the casino with any part of his poker funds. We play poker because we want to have the edge on those that may be less skilled or educated in the game. Playing any game in the casino gives the house that edge right from the start. and usually a big one too.

Playing for 8 hours a day could have learned to win on the little things. I believe that the win is not very difficult in the freerolls start-up capital. The main thing then do not lose the money and to preserve and increase. If you do not succeed then you're not strong enough as a player. Spend more time learning poker and read the literature of how to keep your bankroll. Keep in mind that sooner or later you will have to make a deposit to be able to withdraw your winnings. I do not know of any online poker site that provides the ability to withdraw money without a deposit. Do not rastraivaytes of the failures. We must strive for their dreams and success will come.

Im playing 12 hours in the day, im playing a lot.
In the poker school league open im 524
But isnt enough

Edixon..... This is twice now that you have said that it 'isn't enough!'.

My question to you!

What isn't enough?

What do you expect to get from poker? Do you see it as the answer to all of your money issues?

I'd love to be an astronaut, but I can't just turn up at NASA and expect them to give me a spaceship. I guess I would have to do years of training and then become good at what I do before they let me get anywhere a space mission. Then they may pay me accordingly. I guess while I am in training they won't pay me much.

If you think poker is the quick answer to getting money..... WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!

Reevaluate your life and make some changes.

You must invest some money in the game, even a small price, so that to have the chance to play for more money with less players! If you cannot deposit continue with the freerolls and chase those have higher profits like cardchat`s.

My advice to you is get as many poker rooms as you can. I like Full Tilt, 888, ACR, party poker. But the one I mean specifically is party poker. If you register through certain affiliates they offer a free, no deposit, cash sign up bonus. Also if you complete their SnG and starting missions you get free tournament tickets and more cash. So you can always keep on playing.. Just don't be like me and lose all of it playing SnG hero ahhahaa I maybe have a small jackpot chasing problem.

The more rooms you play on the more chances you have of winning a small amount of money on one of them through freerolls, that's when you start grinding the micro stakes. Also make sure to play some of the freerolls that offer other prizes other than money. Specifically I mean the Full Tilt daily freerolls which offer tickets to their weekly $250 (?) freeroll.

Also when you do start grinding, this may not be for you but some people find it their grind of choice. I really like grinding micro rush tables. Min buy-in, very tight play and a lot of patience. Usually you can end up winning a nice sum there as the field is actually full of donks that'll call you down to the river with a air.

Best of luck to you.
