If you have patience, start with lowest DoN you can get. If you dont have, its pretty much same, where you going to lose your no deposit bonus. One for sure, stay away from omaha

Hello everybody! The sit & go to 9 players are very good. You just make several at once you take the smallest buy-in such a dollar. See you soon for new posts lol!

Play the lowest limts you can, id say cash games, but thats prefrence. The real trick is to just not lose it, some sites say they will take it back after "x "time, iv never known any to do so, the time limit is normall on the bonus side not the no-deposit bonus, that will have a cash out restriction.(IE you got 25+25) the first 25 will not be on a time limit. TBH forget about that 2nd 25, just build a roll, then when u have one move it to the next no-deposit, or deposit bonus and you have a bigger roll, more likely to release the 2nd bonus...then it snowballs. You should play limit, but most PPL wont so try at least pot limit. GL.

when u registered on a merge software site maybe try at first the free sng´s u can win a 1$ for nothing and get a feeling for the game before u start play for real money. And there gives many artikels here and in internet for beginners read a few of them and then play low limits. Play not so long make a break between the games. I startet in beginning with sng´s i think too DON is a good way for the begin

I once got a NDB from Mansion, through BRM. I found that they had a quite nice chipset that I wanted, that could be bought through collecting the same points that were needed for the bonus. But I had to collect a shitload of them.
I then found that it, at least on the Ipokernetwork, worked good playing limit cashgame, on 4 tables, and on the 5/10c level. The points kept rolling in, and it just took me half a year (pretty much without profit) to get a chipset that I probably could have bought for 100 bucks.
A tip of me. Look up the promotion page on internet from the site wich you get your ND from. Most of the time when you pay attention to that page you will find promotions wich can give you some extra value to build your bankroll with not to hard work.
As most of posted before me said, there is an essential skill required to build a bankroll: patience, patience and patience. After playing for a while you will be more capable, more experienced but without patience you won't go anywhere.

Posted by shokaku: Depends on the tems of the bonus.
Contributed: Play low stakes shorthanded NL holdem or a Stud based game
Dealt: Play low stakes full ring NL holdem or fixed limit
+1 and in fact those that say "no omaha", well, it could be good to play omaha for clearing bonuses on dealt conditions. The pots in omaha usually grow larger than in HE, so if you exercise caution, you could clear the bonus faster in omaha than in holdem

I thinck the best solution is Dons, they are easy to play and hard to loose your money, but better play 4 or more tables in the same time. Also if you know Omaha play PL Omaha, usaly the pots are big and you will earn points farst enough.
