Dude... Take a few cans to the recycling place or something. Check under the vending machines for loose change.

hey all mighty...if you win .05 a sit and go, lets say 5 of them then buy into one of the higher sit and go's say the .25 one, then win that one get lets say 2.00 buy into one of the other higher sit and go's say 1.00. Come out with 5.00 then go to the ring games and destory those players wow looks like you just made a bankroll by playing solid poker against some terrible players. Maybe you should try this and grind out a bankroll think playing the higher levels have warped you where you dont remember how it was when you 1st started out and had to grind it. Like ive said before and I'll say one last time I dont play online poker to make money I'd rather spend my time in a real casino playing, so yes I plan on grinding it out on the cheap ass sit and go's....Why? because there freaking free, I dont keep a bankroll online if I ever did make one id withdraw it and drive to a real casino, which I plan on doing with the money I make from them. Oh did I mention the players are absolutley terrible? oh yes I did.... it would be very easy for anyone with any poker skills to do exactly what I said and make at least $50-$100 a week and not have to spend a dime pretty much like getting reload bonus's but dont have to deposit.

i think it might be tough to make 50-100 per week when you are counting on building your bankroll through 5 cent sit and gos, and then pyramiding that up.

i wish it was that easy, but as tp said, take a little time to recycle some soda cans, do something good for the environment, and save up a couple of bucks that way. it isnt worth the time or the aggravation waiting for their connection to be good to make that little money. you might as well just play freerolls and play money at other places, it pays better.

Default ok


with as bad as the players are each sit and go takes about 5 minutes tops one I played yesturday took less then 2 minutes since on 1st hand 5 people went all in then just outplayed the chipleader. Try it out its really not that hard to do on there, I wouldnt say it was easy either if I hadnt of tried it myself, once buy into the higher sit and go's the competition is a little better but not that great and the ring games forget it there a piece of cake for anyone that has any knowledge of poker. Anyone on here would do great in them but hey dont listen to me what the hell do I know? And dont need to save up money I have plenty, Just dont deposit it, save it for real casino. Nothing against online I just like playing in casino alot more, kinda hard to break into online after playing so much at B&M.

My time is worth significantly more to me than this, but hey, to each their own. Good luck with it. If you can make $50 to $100 per week doing this, well, again, good luck to you. It still wouldn't be worth it to me.... especially considering most week's you're going to have invested a lot of time to profit roughly $0.

As for remembering way back when - I've never played for play money, and I think only my very first deposit was less than the amount to get the maximum bonus (usually $500) - I put in $200, because I wasn't sure about the whole online poker thing at the time. But again, that's just me.

So if you're not doing it for the money, why are you doing it? For the fun? If so, why not just play for play money? Or at least some very small stakes where people don't play like morons and all push in on the first hand. That doesn't sound fun to me at all. I'd rather spend that same time watching tv. Or going for a walk. Or sleeping. Or taking a dump.

But like I said, maybe that's just me. If this is fun to you, so be it. But don't say this is a good way to build a bankroll, when you (especially someone with "plenty of money") could do much, much, much better spending that time bonus whoring.

Yes I play online for fun, Im addicted to poker, I admit it. As for everest poker I wouldnt deposit on there if I where any of you now there telling me they dont accept me as a real money player because of my geographical location sounds pretty fishey to me. TP I play online for practice and for fun, I play B&M to make money, by plenty of money I mean I have enough to comfortabley play 2/4 or 3/6 in the casino in no way am I rich.
