[Challenge] From Freeroll to 100 [Challenge] From Freeroll to 100

Hello ppl. This is Lucas from Argentina. This my first challenge and i think it is going to be very challenging, lol.

I started playing cash like 1.5 years ago, in an online poker room from my country. I got and accident and a lot of free time then and used it to learn how to play and start. It took me like 6 months to be break even, then like 2 more to gain like 35-40 u$s and then i quit the poker room and moved to pokerstars.

Startet there at NL2, with 50u$s bankroll. Up and down for months, when I had like 15, i started playing mtts and sits.

I quit cash and started mtts and sits 1.1 - 1 - 2.20. Lost like 5 50u$s bankrolls from then lol.

And now, things have changed a lot:

- In all the 1.5 year time played, i had 2 jobs. I Worked like 14+ hours a day and used ALL the free time to play poker, and sleep nothing. I think that was a big issue. I was bored and tired a lot, and tried to get it hot with stupid mtts buy ins (some $11, also won like 5-6 $11 tickets and wasted them at sunday storm). Tilt, doing stupid things because of doing them, etc

- Now a days I only have a job and the better one: i can choose my work hours, and work normal amount of hours or less (steel sleep a lot ). So i can concentrate, care about, enjoy, study and I have time for myself too.

- But, I have no money, lol. When i had like 12u$s left, i tried to use my brains but i failed. I played some 1 sits, and 3,30 bigs (lol)

So i will have to start from freerolls. I will get all the free pokerstars tickets i have left and play it as serious as possible to have the chance to be back!

I can't see now the usual 10 freerolls from pokerstars, is that my problem o it doesnt exist anymore?

Plan:

Freeroll >>> luck >>> 0.25 sits 90/45 man. Nothing turbo or hyper >>> more luck >>> 50 u$s >>> one $1 sit 180 a day, 0.25 sits. Starcoins are for mtts tickets for bigs >>> so many luck >>>> u$s100! >>> then i think about.

Already started while writing this: School Pass event 4x3.30 tourney tickets. 98/347. Late reg ends in 2 min. Lol, wish me luckk, I need to win 1 of these!

P.S: Sorry about my english

9/5 update..

Bankrolls:

Pokerstars: 0.01
888: 1.84
BetOnline: 0.00

I played a lot of freerolls, won no cent.

I played like 5-6 0.10c 10 man turbo, no so many time today. I think I prefer reading and studing at this moment. Will play all freerolls I find while reading anyway.

I started also reading about staking. Will give a try to that if I get the chance.
