Too many freerolls ?

#1 4th June 2009, 11:12 AM

I played last night on 6 diffrent freerolls trying to take notice of another member and not to spend any cash, just freerolls
6 at the same time my head was done in.
stars,f/t/cake,etc. think i ended up concentrating on 2 pokerstars, cake in the end.
10,000 on pokerstars 72 to qualify for the $2,000 freeroll finished 78th. Gutted.
9,000 on cake finished 150ish top 7 won a ticket to a $40 sat.better luck tonight lol nothing on others. lots of free fun tho!!!
i think it was a case of see which ones i was doing well on an more or less ditch they otheres lol.

6 at the same time,that is too more truly.You cant take time to observe your opponents.I think 3 is the most.But still take most of your force on one of them until you bust out in that.

2 at once is usually enough for me, anymore and it can get really annoying.

Those freerolls on cake get 9000 players now!??!!?! I remember playing those like a year and a half ago and they only had maybe 200 players. Still had the same payout too, although I think the round 2 is $1,000 now instead of $500?

There is a lot of free rolls out there, this tends to make people throw all in with nothing when you have a hand, and than you get beaten. It is no fun =(

I have played 2 freerolls at once, thats the last time I do that..The whole thing made me nuts..I am a 1 game at a time player.

I like one or two tourneys at a time.

One really keeps you focused. Two at a time and while one is slow the other will keep you from tilting off chips getting bored. Three or more then your concentration will definitely be lacking. It will definitely give you more respect for the ring game players who multi-table all day.

Better Luck the Next one!

I'm just getting the hang of two tourney's at a time. I have played 4 once last week, but did not fare well. It did, however, desensitize me for playing two at a time, which is good. You need a quick decision making process to play so many.

I do not understand what for so many tournaments to play! It is not necessary to be greedy 1-2 tables quite approaches))

Yeah, I think two tournaments is best if you want to spend the entire time playing poker. Online poker does give the luxury of surfing (at least I have it since I have multiple computers) while playing. Also, in case I lose one and I still want to play, I have the other. But if the tournament is small and the prizes are decent, then I want to stay pretty focused on just one.

I agree with everyone else. After 2, you're just playing your cards. No way you can get a feel for your opponents.

Playing six freerolls at the same time is totally insane. You cannot concentrate and will eventually lose your game. Just stick on playing one freeroll at a time and try to improve your play in order to win the first place. Good Luck and may the force be with you.
