WHEN ALL SITES will not have any freerolls ($0 buy-in with rewards), would you play microstakes (buy-in of up to $25), or just "play money" or "token" games for fun, or perhaps quit poker?

When you say "Money Games" do you mean cash games or tournaments you have to pay to enter?

I'll generally play low stakes cash games and a few low buy-in tournaments

I would be sad about such a bonus going forever but I would continue grinding micro and lowstakes as Im doing already

Howdy! I think micro are more of $0.33, $0.5, $1.1 buy-in (just capped at $25).

I meant that is suppose to be "play money" or "tokens". Will ask mod to edit if possible to be clear. @Andyreas, is it possible to edit the poll choices pls?

I will definitely continue to play at the micro-limits at the limit available to me. There will be one more motivation to play well so as not to lose your entire bankroll

Personally, I'm going to play micro, just like I'm still playing.

I would definitely start playing tournaments with microstakes buy-ins (maximum up to 5 USD). It doesn't even cross my mind to never play again.

I don't really understand playing only free tournaments is a waste of time for me. I play a lot of paid tournaments and with real money, I find a lot of fun and opportunities to earn some money. I play free tournaments selectively and optionally.

I play freerolls because they exist and that gives me my fix. 50 cent win can feel just as good as 500 lol

I like that micro buy-ins help me improve my games, it's a shame that I haven't been able to progress to bigger buy-ins yet

If there were no freerolls the micros would be flooded with fish.

I prefer to play microstakes and not waste time, it doesn't matter if it's a 1USD buy-in, knowing it's real money keeps me focused.

I think I'm going to try myself as a cash game player like I do at GGPoker. And on pokerstars today I played my 1,000,000th cash game hand. So I guess I won't get lost and quit playing poker.

I would quit playing. Although I play for fun, but I am not ready to pay for this fun as I am used to free tournaments.

It is in their interest not to lose players but most likely and that is the goal to see how many they will give up 🙂🙂🙂
