Well I think you d better start playing those freerolls and build up your bankroll from there.
It will have the following benefits :
- you will have to show some pokerskills to get ITM and learn to face some bad beats and beats versus bingo players. - the more you get into the money, your poker play will improove - once you collected a bankroll of +20 dollars , you will remember the effort it took to build it up... so you will be carefull with it.
tip : - freerolls on small poker sites are often more interesting, smaller prices but less players ( like yachting) tip 2 : maybe look for a NDB

Might just be me ....... but your wife will kill U if U manage to get some money online????? better not get any money then......
Play those feerolls on stars and tilt..... If U play them calm , tight and pay enough attention to ur oponents, then U will be ITM. Build up ur BR like that , keep urself to decent BRM and U will have a positive br in no time........
I did it like that and I know many more who builded their BR from scratch, this way U'll appreciate it more.
Poker is not about fast money.....thats gambling .
Wish U the best of luck while grinding and I do hope U'll find a job soon.

seriously- what the fcuk can u do with $2? it's just too shallow roll to work on it, and besides if you can't win those pesky two bucks in freerolls- isn't this like a wake-up call? maybe just quit playing poker/or stick with ndb's, freerolls...if you do that immediately makes you at the very least a break-even player...ain't this an instant improvement?

Building a Bankroll from scratch is almost impossible. Even if build a few dollars BR, it doesn't leave you with any margins for error. You have to get lucky few times in a raw (or at least not get unlucky). Most of the times I just fail when trying to double up my BR to have enough to get into tournaments. I once turned 50c into 87$ (Lost it later on), but that was EXTREMELY LUCKY of me

You are just trying to make a begging thread look like it`s not a begging thread. Guess what, we still get it`s a begging thread. You`re a grown man, plase don`t beg for a couple of dollars. I`m sure you can afford to do a 10$ deposit if you can afford to pay your rent.
