Hold'em Free-Roll Strategies. How do you play?
Having played a few free-rolls during down time at work i noticed just how different people play. Curious what everyone's strategies in free-role are? It's so vastly different the way everyone bets without a care until later game.
I have had really good success so far making others think they have the upper by not betting and checking till last two flops. Raising their bets against me each time.
I have been told most just all-in every good hand they get and cross their fingers. Eventually stacking 5k+ off the bat and just sitting back till late game.
What are your strategies in free-role? Especially low stacked approaching late game. My biggest issue is i can hang on with a mid sized chip stack till last 20-50players. Then just fall out to the bug guys bully betting.
Side note: How do you guys call on trying for straights/flushes? Everytime i have the perfect hand to nail one it fails. Every-time i fold crap it nails it last flop on a big pot.
