Using freeroll winnings vs. deposited money

[redmast]

It does not matter where the money came from. If they are from me, then I treasure them.

 

[Fastone2]

No. Its basically the same thing.

In my opinion everybody need to play the game on same level, regardless of the prize pool or if they're playing freeroll tournaments or playing with real money. Poker is just a game of maximum knowledge and from every tournament.table u played you are +1 on the scale. So play the game and build a knowledge of it. Don't be the donkey on the table.Good luck everybody.

i play more cautious when i play with my own money, and play a bit loose when it comes from freerolls.

 

[n3rv]

Hard to say. Depends on the amount.

Where the money came freom should make no difference to your style of play or what stakes you choose to play. You should still practice good bankroll management and make sure you have enough buy-ins for the stakes you choose to play.

Yes, I am the same way. If I am fortunate to place or not, I will always play the best possible way I can.

Treating the moneys different is a mistake or a bad habit.
Bad habits/mistakes only cost money.

 

[clasrasmusso]

I'm playing the same strategy all the time, does not matter if it's
freeroll money, I can not change my tactics

Playing with free roll money that you have earned and ground up from nothing makes you respect the money more, and respect bankroll management more. I banned real money deposits on my poker client to run it up. I can't afford to go broke otherwise I'm back to grinding free rolls. I'm really enjoying the challenge and it's forcing me to become a better player too, because I now can't afford to lose.

It does not matter if you stick to your course and keep bankroll management.

For me it's just the opposite.
I'm less carefull with freeroll money, since it was never mine.

Interest Ask. Relying on my own experience I can say that freeroll money has a different value. This is the equivalent of my hard work and time spent. Therefore, their cost is much higher. But I lose them faster than deposit money. I know this is stupidity. But...

 

[ps_komaklos]

I never have deposited money. But in the ends its just money. For me its fine just trying to grind up and learn the game. I have to play on limits i can aford until i have a bigger bankroll. But i would do the same with a deposit.

I always try to play my best possible poker for the situation no matter where the buy in comes from.
