I am not huge on putting money on any sites right now until things get figured out but still want to play.  I play on hero a lot but I'm wondering if anyone knows of any other really good freerolls that allow you to build a BR on US friendly sites.  Thanks for any help.

i am not in the US, but if i was, i would put an amount online that i could afford to lose. 

 

i.e most people dont mind spending $100 to go out for dinner and have a few drinks afterwards, so why not put that online instead?

 

to me, grinding freerolls to build a roll would be incredibly hard.

It's a pain in the butt but I'd rather go out to dinner and have some drinks than put money on I may not even have a chance to get back.  So far the $1 prize pool freerolls are the best I've found on hero poker.  They aren't too bad get a few cashed then cash in 3 $1 don's then I can play $2 don and so on and so fourth.  I was just wondering if there was any better freerolls than the ones on hero I hadn't heard of.  I know there is like 1000 skins on merge.

Sorry to be a pain, but it seems really incongruous to me that you are prepared to fork out for a TPE membership but then don’t want to invest in your bankroll. Even starting with $20 would be better than grinding out free rolls IMO. Obviously everyone has their own circumstances but that’s just my opinion.

Good luck though, I mean that sincerely, you will have a tough time though

I would much rather spend $20 getting better at the game than playing $1sngs which $20/month would buy, the whole reason I want freerolls is I don't want to put any money online until things are figured out in this country, plus this site is still good for live poker which I play a lot.   you're not being a pain either, you still haven't told me if you know any good freerolls 🙂

Try BetOnline. They have a daily noon $200 Freeroll that you can play. It is full of fish so you can work on your fishing skills. Also, there are some OK freerolls on True Poker / America Cardroom. I can't get an account on Hero poker so I don't know what to compare that to.

I understand where you are with deposits. I am in the same boat. I have opted not depositing anymore on US branded sites. I was trying a deposit and Merge has stopped allowing US put credit cards. I refuse to go to a Western Union and put 100.00 up for a deposit on a site that I run a risk of not getting it off when I need to. Gone are the days currently in a US online poker room where on a Sunday if you decide to deposit 215.00 to play in a tournament and run a good session for like 5000.00 and put it right back in your account the next week.

The way it looks to me is that we risk our credit card / debit card to a third party processor in Xin Leu China and get charged extra 2.00 transaction that then signals a deposit and then give your blood samples and your next child to back that 50.00 up to get your money on because you live in US. Then our 50.00 roll, we play, play play, get it up to 1150.00 and then getting it off. That is another issue all together.  Anywhoos.

Love live, cage give money, cage give chips money in pocket out the door. Duplicate that and I will play me some online.
