Stick to free rolls?

[shim36]

I think freerolls are the best way to practice.
However, you have to know that many low-level people can participate because they are not paying for it themselves.

I agree. A good way to practice, but there are a lot of mishaps. People are not paying for it so they are reckless: once a guy called my pocket aces with 37 offsuite and won with a two-pair.

So I've manage to accumulate $7 in profits on 888 poker in 1 week on free rolls, I've deposited $10 initially and now I'm at 17 should I play Low Level MTT's or just stick to free rolls until I'm more confident and have a higher bank roll? I'don't really want too get into my own $10 that i deposited rather play on 888's money.. So far I've only I've only managed too place 46 in a tourney of 2000+ but they are turbo. I'm more confident playing acr freerolls at the 10 minute mark, are all mtt's on 888 turbo? any suggestions?

This is a good start from only playing for one week, but if it was me I personally would stick to the free-rolls for a while longer, Its a good start because my first win was only 32 cents and it took me a while to get that!
Poker variance could mean you are incredibly lucky, or an incredibly talented player, but with every upswing in your game you will encounter downswings as well, so practice is the best policy,
Don't be too eager to start raising your stakes, I made my own limits to when I started to buy into other games and on pokerstars, I started with the 10 cent games only when I had $20 in my bankroll, then moved up to 25 cent buy-ins when I made my first $50, After that I played the 50 cent games, and now I play $3.00 buy-in game on a regular basis. It took a while but patience is a virtue,
I have never made a deposit on any site and have built up a small, but comfortable bankroll's on a few, and many professional players will tell you to stay within your limits, and not to rush things, General rule to follow is never to buy-in for more than 1% of your total bankroll.
So before you start buying-in to $1.00 games, have at least $100 in your bankroll. Doyle Brunson recommends that if you want to buy into any cash game, you should only sit down at a table if you can take a minimum of 100 X the big blind with you, and that is the bare minimum, He prefers to sit down with 200 X if he is playing high stakes Poker.
Take it slow, Poker is going to be around for a long time, so there is no need to rush in, all guns blazing. Keep it fun but remember--

When the fun Stops, STOP!

See, I apologize, I do not know what the question means, I imagine it is the frerrols, or the free tournaments, I always play them, and there is where my bank has come out, orita I do not have dollars but, I always participate. ..

G'day Mick, good to see you're getting some good results mate.

:top:

Hey Zorba, I missed you and many other CCers, I hope you’re doing awesome!
I took quite a break and am enjoying the game again.
I wouldn’t say I’m doing good when I’ve blown through 3 $100+ bankrolls I built from nothing, BRM still eludes me
I thought I’d be pushing 1k now lol
Hope to see you around, I’m trying to be active here again now👍🍻

There are so many freeroll options everyday. So you are never going to run out of action. The problem is depositing the $10. It's not a lot of money but if you have a bad and lose it all it's enough to compel you to deposit more. Soon you could find yourself vicious cycle and that's not good. Make that $10 your new zero and only play with the money you win off freerolls.

Insist on participating in free games to accumulate initial funds

Freerolls are a decent way to attempt to build a balance.. unfortunately they are chalked full of donks that suck out on a super consistent basis.. love to hate them

 

[filippfilm]

I play freerolls when I run out of money in my poker account

 

[Mahereid]

From where I am from we're not allowed to deposit money in poker/casino websites so I am stuck to freerolls for now.

 

[satriyo]

Good for training.

It's a good way to get a starting bench, it's also good for training a bit.

Playing well at freerolls can be a good start for winning major tournaments. It is not necessary to invest personal funds, but the path through the freerolls requires patience and will take longer to win.

 

[FuccinALLin]

Stick with what your comfortable with.. and you'll eventually come out of the freeroll stage.. but it's always there for extra bankroll if needed..

 

[Ice Wolf]

I don't know what 888 looks like but I will NEVER play another ring game on a WPN sit that's for damn sure. That network is just rake rewards, runner runners and one and two outs hit like they are the better hands. Site has to make a profit and this is definitely one way they are doing it. It's an absolute joke they say anything about having a certified NG to people.

Been there done that...

Stick within your own comfort zone. For you to enjoy your online poker experience as well as do well you have to be comfortable in your stake level. If your not comfortable playing in regular online tournaments then don’t. Only you know. I recently decided to try to fund a site I just started on with nothing but freerolls. This started about 5-6 months ago. And I am happy to say that I enjoyed the grind and have been “successful “ on what I actually wanted to accomplish!! I have made it through my freeroll stage to playing in regular MTT’s. To take this route you just have to really have patience and perseverance. Just set yourself a goal then do what you need to to achieve said goal. Make sure you are enjoying your poker experience or you will probably not stick with it when the going gets tough!! It happens to everyone so it’s how YOU deal it. Okay, sorry this little note turned out to me rambling. Just enjoy!
