    Default Just Won my First MTT ... okay $50 freeroll

    Yeah I know freerolls are lame, but I don't want to bother depositing on a website and I don't trust myself with that kinda access yet. I play real money live games with friends very often... but sometimes I do the freeroll gig at poker.com

    Well, almost busted 20 / 1500 (only top 10 get paid) but caught a decent streak to make it to the final table. Made some plays, found myself headup with a 4:1 disadvantage in chips. Guy was a real bully, I finally started loosening up + amped up bluffing (hard to do, normally in freeroll / donkfest you want limit the bluffing). Finally i get up to 2:1 lead w/ monstrous blinds... I take it down. I won only $15- I mean I've won plenty more in home games, but it's the most I ever got online. Plus outplaying the 1500 field is good for the ego (okay luck helped plenty).

    I know freerolls are a donkfest... but I beleive that most MTTs are donkfests to some degree... just get a lot wilder and stupider donks down at the bottom of the stakes. Yeah I shoulda posted winner circle but eh.

    Take your $15 to the microlimits, turn it into $30 or $50 and start playing SnGs. Build that roll up!

    BTW, microlimits are the same as play money or this here freeroll and you'll winrar.

    Okay so I'm not properly staked for anything... but which would be better: playing .02/.04 NL ring ($5 max buy) or $1.10 ($1 + 0.10 rake) SNG's?
