Hello everyone
I wanted to see some opinions on daily freebies that I use on GGPoker.When I win those,I sometimes try to play some spin and golds,but mostly I lose that money.Since minimun withdrawal I can make is 200 dollars,would you recommend me trying some micro tournaments,$1 or $2 daily tournaments.I've had some deep runs in freroll tournaments,and it seems more reasonable to try those tournaments instead of grinding at spin and golds or micro cash games.
Thank you in advance for everyone who sees this and leaves his comment,I appreciate this forum.

Wow, $200 minimum withdrawal is quite something to earn first.

I suggest you play those games which you feel the most comfortable with.

Usually tournaments have a large variance, so there's a potential this isn't really working out either but you can of course give it a try. 👍🏻

In theory, I would recommend regular sit&gos but GGPoker doesn't offer those unfortunately.

No he did not. Dollars, is dollars. That's what you read into it.

And he's from Bosnia Herzegovina which you can find in his profile.

It just goes to show not every comment and "help" being offered is meaningful... 🙄

Those have around 2-3k players most of the time. That's a lot of work for small amounts of money.
I would stay away from spins and other "lottery formats". They are a sure way to blow away your winnings.

Increase your skills and maybe save up for little higher buy-ins? Higher buy-in goes usually hand in hand with a smaller field.
And while you are saving take a look at our FREE course:

He clearly said the minimum he can withdraw is 200 dollars ($200). It sounds a lot to me too, but he wasn't talking about any currency.
And where did you come up with a continent he never mentioned? There's a Bosnian flag under his username too.

I think it will be better if I recommend you another site, such as 888, where the minimum withdrawal is from $10, where there are a huge number of freerolls, and where you can easily build your starting bankroll.

Definitely. The T$ Builder tourneys starting at $0.25 are very profitable considering the softer field (At least softer than Pokerstars).

Well hello Andy :), I know this is not the place but couldn't resist saying hi and how's everything. Unfortunately, I don't see you much here, nor on the Team League events anymore!!

It seems we got off the track by discussing withdrawals instead of answering the initial post. 😂 lol.
Regarding freebies, you could try Sit n Gos which award tickets and use them to advance to higher awards.

The best way for u are the games u are the most profitable in in the long run.

The best way in general imo would be to become a good deep stack cash game player and then play cash games untill u reach 200 $.

U could also find someone to cash out via p2p if u dont want that the inevitable is going to happen soon 😅

There won't be a magic answer that will help you to run up one of those 'Daily Freebie' wins into $200+ so you can withdrawal it.

My suggestion, find what you are most comfortable with (micro MTT's or micro cash game play). Stick with one format and keep playing it so that you get more familiar with it.
I would try to find a way to make a DEPOSIT. You'll need to do this prior to making a Withdrawal anyways so you might as well start off with depositing if you're going to choose to play on GG (& same goes with some of the other sites)

Wouldn't it be possible to Deposit ~$150 once you have built your account up to $50, play a bit more and then WD the $200? (fwiw, this isn't part of my suggestion(s) )

I believe the original poster was referring to a 'Daily Freebie' they have on GGPoker. (it's a 'free prize' that everyone can get just for logging in to the site each day). Some of the days it's a $0.25 Spin & Go, 1day it's a $1 Spin & 2 other days it's a $0.25 'Mystery Battle Royale' ticket. You can basically win $0.50 to maybe $3 or so. So I guess OP was wondering how he can take one of those wins and build it up to $200
