What do you do when you win freeroll money?

xnotic · Jan 23, 2013

I just won a whole dollar last night playing Betonline for 3 hours. To the people who don't deposit and only play freerolls, what do you do after winning such a small amount? Do you save? Play the lowest possible stakes possible? Enter a SNG?

I stop playing at betonline lol but seriously if all u can play is freerolls go to carbon they have sng freerolls aswell as MTT freerolls betonline is so shady dude I'd just use that dollar then move to a different site cuz you'll never see that dollar or any other dollar from there

And to actually answer ur question what I do (I can only play FRs) I save it and enter a nice guaranteed tournament or a satellite to try and win big

Yes, they run all the time and are called "Fun Step".

You get a Fun Step 1 ticket under Promotion (you can get 10 per day). Then go to play under Play money sit n go's. Next try to climb up, get that dollar and of course have fun

Plenty of of older threads with some tips in them, like no need to place first in step 1 & 2 and look out for afk people

What do you do when you win freeroll money? So far I have blown it on the casino table games.

I'd just bank it. Although, I just uninstalled Betonline because of the bad stuff I heard. Anyways, I always bank my freerolls and don't waste my time at micro stakes. Then when I have enough to make it worth the while, I'll play a mid level ring game or buy into a tournament.

i agree that carbon is best for freerolls. you can do fun step freerolls and u can try 10 times i think per 24 hours. its a sit and go and you might have to have play money unchecked for it to show up. idk i dont play there anymore because my cards always declined but top 3 in step 1 get step 2 then the top 2 get step 3 in which 1st gets a buck. then they have .11 sit and goes which id reccomend playing after winning that buck

I've been playing at BOL and it does seem like a big waste of time. What shady experiences have you had with BOL? Maybe I should stop wasting my time there...

Well most of it has just been from hearing about everyone else's lol just search bet online in this forum and make ur decision from that but my one bad experience was when one day I randomly got a call that my account needs to be updated and a new account number will be givin to me so I wasn't able to play until I had to contact them and all they could say about getting back to me was basically sorry, gave me a new account number and it was a new account all together because I didn't even have my 2.33$ and when I got a hold of them they said I should get it within the hour and a week later I uninstalled betonline and never looked back

If I had no other money in the account other than the dollar I'd probably bank it until I could enter a decent normal speed sng.

XXPXXP · Feb 1, 2013

repeat this 100 times, and start to build a good bankroll, or withdraw for fun!....LOL

Play something with it. Whatever you enjoy. The sooner you get over any reluctance you feel to put small amounts of money at risk, the better. Even if it's your entire roll, it's only a buck (as in this case) or some other small amount. So what if you lose it? So what if you lose multiple small rolls? Would you feel better saving up until you have $10 or $20 or more to play with, and then risking / losing that?

Go play cash ring game with it...You will find one of two things...(1)It will take you far less than 3 hours to win another dollar...or (2) you will lose your dollar much faster than it took you to earn it...either way you will save a lot of time which I would hope is worth more to you than 33 1/3 cents an hour.

i think carbon is good for freerolls, i won 50 cents in a freeroll and ended up losing it in the 11 cent turbos. Theyre more like gambling than poker really. If i had a whole dollar id probably go sit down at limit holdem and build it up more
