It's great to have this type of games to boost our balances but there are over 1000 Russian and Ukrainian players ,who spoil all the games with their arrogant type of gambling!!

I used to get upset when ridiculous hands won in freeroll. Now I accept I am playing poker in a fish storm, and to adjust accordingly.

i use the hit and miss to my advantage. I actually wait for decent cards and then go all in as i know someone will call all in. Some people think of freerolls as something to do with extra time. I was also amazed how many people will call when they have trash cards. The worst is when they actually win with them. I've gotten into the money with freerolls so don't give up on them.

In my opinion most do not value it as it is due, want fast results and are long tournaments of several hours where ay to have a lot of patience

I think that it all depends on luck in this game mode

I find that players purposely play loose in freerolls just to spite the players who takes these tournaments seriously.

It certainly does not help when the better hand going all-in some how gets beaten by lesser quality hand.

In my opinion, some freerolls are not even being played like real poker, but rather Craps shooting. Everyone moves all in just because they can, not because they have a strong hand. The only real way to play....well for me.....is to wait out the mad rush of push or fold until you have a good hand. But I don't know, it's crazy to me. If you're not playing to win, then why even sign up for the Tournament if you're just going to be Sir Donk-a-Lot.

I think not, many player play trash cards even all in. I try to be better with every tournament but some frees are frustrating and more frustranting is loose with a good hand versus trash hand. I see players playing all in to try get advantage of chips early and get a lot of chips, but some good players keep pushing and get it. Keep playing hard and improving your game no matter what happens is the goal.

The truth is that you will find those same type players at every level, but most of the time they don't get very far, because that little bull shit don't last long, and the sit back players take them a part.

Freeroll is a great training place. Chance to win money without investing is just a huge +EV. Plus to that, while novice and recreational players are learning to play poker (some more, some less, some learn never xD) in these game. It's mistake to think that good players can't gain anything of that. Because it's full of fish and donks, it's also as i said a great training place for refining your skills of getting most value out of fish. Because having such skills can be vital also at normal tournaments on your limit you play. When you suddenly get one or two fishes jumped at your table, you should be ready to hook them up, before other regs did.

Freerolls can help you get your bankroll started, but you'll need some luck. I think only once you get ITM, the real game starts, and even then you can get some maniacs there. But at the early stages it is crazy, so many people playing any 2 cards. It can be really frustrating, but yes it helps you to learn how to deal with tilt.

Freerolls only for fun to put on everything and look lucky or unlucky ... Nothing but excitement ... No poker, no tactics, no strategy .. nothing at all .. When you're not lucky, you only experience more :)

In freerolls a small prize fund, as well as a large number of games and that many crazy people go on garbage. It's all for what they do not do not lose.

Freerolls are free, very few people appreciate, many players go all-in, you have AA, and he has 24 different sets and they collect a flush or a full house. It's insignificant, patience and again the patience in freerolls

You should take any game you play seriously. Otherwise you are essentially practicing how to play wrong.

I think freerolls should be played only at the initial stage of poker training, and then move on to real money, although there are enough mad men in micro-limits who rely solely on luck ...

I never take for granted any tourney, no matter if it is payed tourney or if it is a freeroll. I always try to win something and play seriously.
