I think Chris Ferguson is a multimillionaire who started with Freerolls. Not 100% sure though. Read it in some article.

players used to do this now, but due to the fact that there are a lot of people and players play in different ways, it's much more difficult to do it so it's better to work a little and throw money after playing tournaments from $5 and above low limits I think you'll get tired of playing there

Many successful players with millions of profits said that they started with freerolls.

Doesn't necessarily mean they never deposited after starting with freerolls.
Only know for a fact that Chris Ferguson did never deposited anything

I'm starting with the freerolls, I hope to get there, I don't know when, but damn, 1 million dollars, the dollar is worth 5 times more than my currency and the tendency is only to increase, so if I reach that million then even in 10 years, I hope less isn't it?! The sooner in reality, which would be the best, in the end, it would be a huge result already, but my goals are smaller at the moment, I believe that 1k would already be a good result.

Hi Millionaire,
if Freerolls was your start show us the way ;)
Everything is possible. I think that there are players who started with freerolls, and then just got a job or opened their own business and became millionaires. I'm not a millionaire, although I also started with freerolls, moreover, I continue to play them now :)

I think Joe Cada might be one of the first. I seen him giving a interview years back on tv and saying he started from nothing on pokerstars.

Like everything in poker - this is subjective.
Make 100$ in freerolls and exchange it into Indonesian rupiah. Then you'll have about 1.5 million :LOL:

In reality, well everything is possible, but maybe not plausible.

Annette Obrestad. She said she began to play poker from the freerolls and built up a five figure bankroll.

I think such stories exist, but they are so rare that you are unlikely to meet such a player here)

I think that most players started with freerolls, and it's almost impossible to win serious amounts of money in them, but it's quite possible to win $1-50 per month. Then, with these small winnings, you can win even more, but only a few do it. Other players who lose make a deposit and then return to freerolls. Playing freerolls is luck, and playing for money profitably is skill

Not me. However last night I deposited $10 online with a free extra $20 promo and used that to FT an $11 mtt, bought into and FT'd a $22, then bought into a $110 and got 1st place for $2500. So after I pay my rent and win the main I'll basically be freerolled to a million. Check back in a few months. :cool:
