Tomorrow starts a new month and I plan to start building your bankroll at PokerStars playing in the OPEN SKILL LEAGUE. I plan to play at least 60 tournaments and how to climb higher in the leaderboard. Will share my results. Maybe someone else has similar plans or past experiences please share them

Good luck sirkosun I also play the open skill league freerolls might see you at the tables hope you are successful in your challenge the last time I won first place in an open skill freeroll was 2 months ago it's a great feeling to get any amount of money for nothing once again good luck my friend hope you are successful in your challenge.
I doubt that you can achieve good results in this series of tournaments played ... there are so many different fish that donkeys and be there among the winners rather difficult .. good luck there is more important than skill games

If you want to build a BR i suppose that you d'ont have 20 points made last month.
So if you don't it is a lost of time playing this open league to make money cause if you make top 500 in the leaderboard at the end of the month you will get $1.00 or $5.00 if had make the 20 points.
Don't count on tournament money to build a BR the prize are to low and not impossible to finish first but very difficult task.
Anyway if you decide to play it good luck to you and let us know how you do.

I tried the open skill league some years ago, but there are to many players in my opinion for a small cash. But with enough dicipline and time, you can reach a good place ion the leaderboard. I wish you gl and fun for your challenge

Good luck playing the open league at pokerstars. I agree with PINOTTE that if you want to build a bankroll, this is a lot of effort for little reward. You would be better off playing the BankRollMob leaderboard game at 888 or looking for some other freebie games that don't require as much effort. Whatever you do....good luck.
