There are some short stacks players prefer to steal blind at middle stage.
Anyway most of freerolls is for fun.

my strategy is to shove early and often, if i bust, nothing lost, if i build up a big stack quick, it means i can make a deeper run withstanding those times when my KK runs into AA, or my AA runs into 83o that hits two pair...

Its tough to play those any other way. Most freerolls take a lot of time and you win very little.

and then, should you get into a cardschat freeroll, you might have to deal with, as i did, an admin here trying to rattle you by questioning your eleigebility to even be there, so that thier favorite players stand a better chance, and while they might appologize to you in private, youve already busted out, and no public appology is ever forthcomming, becuase the game is rigged, the popular kids get the best odds

Blairsy you are so right. People play freerolls like they are rolling dice. But the key is to just stay out of thir ways until the Donkeys weed themelves out and you are left with quite alot of players who are there to play poker. Don't get discouraged.

Yeh, if you don't double up in the first ten hands or so, it's all for naught. I've played many freerolls, and have yet to beat one with a large field, I got 3rd once.

Yes. Most of players want to get it in with almost any two cards. If they triple up, they start playing for real(if you will)

You are right it is mostly bingo. I had AK in a free roll on Titan Poker yesterday went all in pre flop one caller with J10. I hit the Ace and then runner runner turn J river 10.

If you think it's rigged you don't have to play they put the freerolls on for us and we get fun tournaments to get to know each other better by seeing how they play . To bitch about someone giving you things for free is ridiqulous

In freerolls, trying to build a big stack in the beginning by shoving with any two cards might be a valid strategy. Bingo sounds like the right term here, but hey freerolls are fun, so don't worry about those players. You can also use their loose play to your advantage assuming you have a good starting hand and like your chances..

This is what i try to do but usually end up knocked out with some random straight or something

Yeah, that's the normal freeroll game:D
But I have to say in CC freerolls all players are playing poker, and that's absolutely great! How sanych said, freerolls aren't there to improve your poker gae, but CC freerolls could do
