Winner Poker - lots of fish?

#1 1st January 2010, 4:07 PM

Im busy playing my first freeroll at winner poker and it seems that these people have no idea how to play. OK it is a freeroll but Ive had two people donk of thier stack to me with mid pair and a rubbish kicker... and thats after I raised 4.5 BB preflop with AA and KK respectively.

Ive caught several of them betting blindly in the hope to take down the pot with a small pair. It just seems to easy. PLay solid poker and you ITM. Its first break and Im sitting in 4th place with 43 left and it pays from 20th.

OK breaks over ill post more later

most freerolls are full of donks. whats important is the field size. 120 entrants is a very good field size but it doesn't look like it was a donkfest because it took almost 4hours even though the field size was so small

might have to check it out if us players can play. Haven't checked any other sites out recently. Sounds like a cheap freeroll $25 bucks. oh well

A $25 freeroll is cheap but the competition of 120 is really small with 20 players ITM.
Depending of the time of day there are as few as 70-80 entries, so easy money for free.

Ive now played 6 of these.....made it ITM 4 times.

Yes the field sizes are relatively small so that could be helping out.

You will find that with freerolls every time, people go in it who do not have and clue and that's why they are called donkfests!
If you want to succeed in these free rolls you have to wait until the later stages of the tournament to start playing properly when the play tightens up.

After playing a few of these I have to disagree with you here Janovsky, it isn't easy money for free, I would rather bash myself with a hammer over my head than to waste my valuable time playing against these idiots.
Maybe I am just spoiled by playing too many CC games.
