I've been entering this freeroll for weeks without success and would like any advice on how to gain a chip lead early in the game.

It's at pokerstars. The buy-in to the tourney is either 1 ticket or 10 FPP. You may have already used your ticket if you've been at this for a while now. I think they gave everyone one ticket to begin with and I just never realized I had one. As soon as I tried to enter round 1, it said I could use my ticket, so I did.

i minimize the lobby and dont look at the chip count. to see where im at in chip count i look at the info tab in the chat box. i also just try to stay around average chip count and dont worry about who has the most chips because i start to feel like i need to hit a hand and start playing hands i shouldnt be playing.

yeh, i dont mind being at a average chip stack, i just sit back and be patient and wait for some good hands to try earn a nice pot or even a double up off.

Haven't placed in one of these MoneyMaker freerolls yet, dont really play them, i have placed 3rd & 7th in normal NL freerolls but there abit of a waste of time.

Go allin every hand and hope you get lucky?

Or just try and see a lot of cheap flops with marginal hands if your table is passive enough. The players in this thing are so terrible if you hit a monster you're likely to get paid off.

Thats what I did called with marginal hands and got real lucky, won a seat in round 2, but what Dorkus says is so true it was a donkament out there people going all in with anything LOL, so I stayed patient and it paid off, anyway hope to see more CC members get in.

Do a Tenbob at the first hour. Sit out the second and start to play for real during the third hour.

4731 entrants guys. Freerollers to make it even worse. You're better off buying a lottery ticket.
