Finnish finish first!

It's time to start my journey in the world of poker, where it will take me, no one knows yet. I'd be lying if I said I was an inexperienced poker player. Over the past almost twenty years, I've occasionally played poker and tried to climb a tree ass-first, but for the most part I've done other things.

But let's not look too closely at the past, of course it's good to learn from the past what not to do. Instead, let's look to the future and see what it brings. And that future starts with creating a bankroll with the help of freerolls.

Let the game begin.

I already started playing early in the morning and the feeling was pretty good playing freerolls with a simple strategy. It also paid off today because I got into the money in three tournaments. I also won entry to a bigger tournament, but this time I didn't finish in the money.

This day was sleepy, the dealer at the tables slept and did not deal hands that could have been played according to strategy. The player himself was also sleepy and therefore did not have the energy to participate in the afternoon tournaments.

But despite everything, the prize money of two tournaments is a good continuation of the trip.

Fairly neutral day today, two tournaments finished in the money.

It would seem to be relatively easy to get entry into one slightly bigger tournament through a freeroll where 400 places are guaranteed.
It would be a good route to get to play and learn a normal tournament and its strategy without investing anything but time.

The first longer session in a bigger tournament via satellite, but I didn't really get any other practice than folding hands. In one freeroll for a slightly deeper money position this time.

This time it was not a lucky seven even though it was the seventh game day. But after all, a little money in the bankroll from one tournament.

I've been thinking and researching what to start doing when I get a big enough bankroll and i came across a LemOn36 compiled and developed by Axis and Fallout86 Modern Beginner's guide on this forum, which would seem to be exactly the right direction after the freerolls.

It's good when freeroll satellites make it possible to play in bigger tournaments, especially when you only have to play one satellite tournament.

The first time money place achievement in a non-freeroll tournament is always a nice achievement.

Step by step forward. The good thing about freerolls is that you can't go backwards.

Today I found out pretty well why freerolls can be called bingorolls. I have two cards so I go all in, good luck to everyone. But those are good chip stack growing moments if you have a monster hand and the hand holds the showdown.
