Good evening! Need advice. I want to raise an initial bankroll at freeroll. Which book do you recommend to read in the first place and why?

Did you find anything good?

I am assuming you want to spend as little money as possible.

if it turns into an addiction i believe so but you are also having fun so who knows
 
I don't think it should be, but for most of people... yeah, it is.

There's so many people who plays just for fun.
 
It may be at the beginning. For those who don't know, and for adventurers in passing, more for those who love poker can make it a great source of income.
 
It's different for everybody. You could grind freerolls and make a little of off them, and don't spend your own money. Or you are a gambler, you spend 100$ every time you play, just for a chance to win for, and eventually you end up in a huge minus. It's all about the approach, but still, if you are a good player and you know what you are doing, poker could become a 9-5 replacement, in general some people lose money some people make money, there's no universal formula😁
