How did that happen!

I am new to online poker and really, I didnt think I was this bad. I keep playing these freerolls at fulltilt and it seems to be different every time. for starters the first one I didnt make 20 mins, before I was all in with a full house and lost to a 4 of akind,kings. the second one I tried to be tight and after an hour and only one good pot I found myself to low on the chip count to play a hand without going all in against someone with 3-5 times the cash flow. best finish outta 2700- 402. Any tips? thanks

Maybe Deposit through this site. play smaller fields. CC events have them as do buy-ins. Did I mention Deposit through this site?

btw u posted this in a the wrong forum, just saying
but it is a freeroll and all u can do is play basic strategy, cant really bluff as a lot of ppl are calling stations.cant push ppl of draws as they dont know the odds,
just play ABC poker, raise with good hands, fold the bad
thats all i can really say, i dont play much freerolls anymore

edit: listen to what poolboy says, he talks some sense

at a freeroll you normally cant make much moves,because those junks call you with evry shitty hand so just play if you got something good,or deposit and play 1 dollar tournaments or so

also you havent really played a lot of these....you need more of a range maybe your just running bad now....youll do better if you keep playing and play solid.....dont forget its a free tourney so it is a lot more loose also....nothing to lose
