Message: [QUOTE="austral, post: 7346732, member: 1057008"] Freerolls are meant to build a bankroll, not to make a living. Many players recommend using them only as a starting point before moving on to micro-stakes tournaments ($0.25, $1, $2, etc.), where the expected return is higher. Tournament variance is enormous. Even winning players can go weeks or months without a significant cash. That's why almost everyone insists on keeping the money you rely on for living expenses separate from your poker bankroll. The opportunity cost is very high. When someone asks whether it's possible to make a few hundred dollars by playing only freerolls, the usual response is that a regular job provides much more reliable and predictable income. [/QUOTE]
