How should I play?

In the freeroll tournament I was in I noticed that often 2 or 3 players would bet getting the others all in on almost every hand towards the end. When your not catching cards in the later stages and you are sure to have a caller (or raiser) no matter what you bet from any position how do you survive?

Simple
You pick a hand, close your eyes and push all-in, and hope to win.

Once the blinds and antes are high enough you cant afford to be picky.

+1 ^^^ With less than 8BB Ax, KT+, QT+, JT, T9, 98, any PP = shove if you are in HJ or later in an unopened pot. In the blinds, if you have good enough reads to 'know' when an LPer is shoving a midPP and you have 2 overs, overshove. etc. etc. Never limp in the late stages, shove or fold only. If you get a big hand AA-JJ, AK, AQ in LP and think you can get blind to shove if you limp then try the trap.

Unless you just want to spam mobile phone apps, of course.

this is spot on. I've played lots of freerolls and in later stages, limping is just a no go. You have a better chance going all in with 2/7o than limping to test your luck because other people will be doing jillychemung said.
click all in. close ur eyes. look up and pray.

Stop playing freerolls if you're serious about the game. It's not really 'real' poker.

Anyways, as your stack gets shorter and shorter than ~10bbs, the range of hands with which you should be willing to open-shove with preflop should be increasing. You never want to be calling a shove with garbage unless you're absolutely desperate (say you have 2bbs and one of those is invested in posting the big blind), but shoving is okay. Of course the reason freerolls are terrible is that often you may as well just be calling a shove by open shoving because there are a lot of people who won't fold anything, particularly if they've built up a huge stack by being ridiculously lucky as one person at every freeroll table seems to do.

it simple, play extremely tight at the start and when you get to a certain stage where the blinds and antes are high, your tight table image will stand you in good stead when you raise and play a bit looser to steal pots. and if your low on chips, just pick your cards, wait for a good position and push, if you get called you have a decent shot of doubling up, and if you don't you should steal a decent sized pot in chips and antes.. good luck!

You really think freeroll players have a clue what your table image is? Plus freerolls general have a fair few players in them so you get mvoed tables to often to develop any sort of image.

sorry i missed the freeroll part somehow! they're pretty much luckfests to be honest with so many donk players, just play tight and you should be able to pick off a few players who constantly push with crap cards, though typically the donks usually win!
