Default Acquiring FPPs on stars

My bankroll is microscopic and I basically get no FPPs for the cash games I'm playing in. On UB there are UB point tournaments to win UB points. Is there anything like that on stars?

I recently discovered the 70fpp satellite into the sunday 100k and I'm addicted, but I'm almost out of FPPs. Help!

Move up in cash games???

If your bankroll is TINY, play the micro MTTs and multi-table sit-n-gos if you want FPP that bad. You should be more focused about winning $ at the micro levels than getting FPP.

Well here's the story:

I was playing break even poker for a long time. I decided that starting over would be good for me. I cashed out like basically all of my bankroll except for $40 and bought a new computer. I have worked my $40 up to $130ish while learning NL too. I'm too impatient and want to play in a live game again. I'm looking for a quick big score to fund a live poker trip.

If I stop wasting money on tournament entry fees, I can grind my way back up. FPPs seem like a cheap way to play tourneys without spending my roll. Alas, there is no way to acquire any more free ones.

I won my way into this Sunday's 100k, but then I only have 3 satellites worth of FPPs left, so I'll be back to grinding out my new bankroll. Wish me luck in this Sunday, I was on a hot streak last week and got trapped into a nasty flip situation and lost.

If you like Sats, you might like the 4 table $2.20 SNGs that award 6 seats. They're somewhat fast, and they are pretty easy to beat. You can grind out tournaments and $T from them.

EDIT: Yay! Post 100

If you win your way in to one of those crapshoot tourneys just unregister and take the $T to play more (or play sngs with the $T).
