If you are new at pokerstars (registered in the last 90 days), the "150 $ Freshmann Leader Board" is a fine freeroll. 2 times a week, good structure, max 6 tables, only arround 140 participants. The price is in Tourneymoney. Tickets therefore are needed with StarCode "SCHOOLFRESHMAN"
Also the PokerStars "Scholar Leader Board", not free at all (0,20$ buy in, but PS adds 300 $).
Much better to improve the skills then those huge amounts of coinflip freerolls at 888

Guess you are absolutely right
Also these weird people who dont like (very) fast structure in freerolls should stick to whatever MTT with a buy-in if they do want to spend 3-4+ hours in one tournament lol

Agreed, and I am glad someone mentioned ACR.
The open to all, $50 guaranteed FRs run on ACR ever few hours and are the most accessible of any site. The fields are deep but not overwhelming, somewhere between 1,400 down to around 650. I have cashed these numerous times even though I tend to play them somewhat casually in the background of whatever else I am doing, until I near the cash. I do not play them so regularly now but they helped build confidence as well as bankroll.
Then for fast and successful hit, I would personally cite the daily freebies on GG Poker. This is somewhat of a contentious matter as some claim to never win anything and others even claim they are rigged. I argue otherwise as they have given a major boost to a starting bankroll for me.
Then of course you have the CC FRs which are a different universe.

I occasionally play the ACR, Sportsbetting and BetOnline ones that CC hosts. ACR is the same as Stars with the fast blinds but SB and BOL are much better with the deeper stacks even though the blind levels are still fast. The SB and BOL ones also have fewer people in them than Stars and ACR so making deep runs is much easier. The only drawback is that the RNGs are awful (worse than both Stars and ACR) so there are more bad beats. For example, I played Saturday and very first hand I get KK. I 3 bet a MP raiser and he jams it all in and of course I call. He has 99 and flops a set. So, you gotta take the good with the bad.

Hi
I think CardsChat freerolls are by far the best around and if you are in a location that most poker clients allow you to play, then you will have plenty of opportunities every day to improve your poker game and build your bankroll. Yes, it takes time and patience and study and good lord a lot of emotional control as many like to gamble with any cards and they will break your aces and kings, which can be very annoying at times, especially if that happens for 2-3 weeks in a row (been there, done that). But that's the game and you're supposedly in for the long-term. But I have not found a better way to build a bankroll.
ACR was offering about 6-7 daily $50 freerolls in HoldEm, Omaha and PLO8, but I don't know if they still are as I haven't been able to find them in the list since January 2022. If anyone knows what the issue is, please let me know. Also, there seem to be many twitch streamers' freerolls and guess you get the password on their streams. Haven't tried that.
888 seems to have plenty of gambling freerolls that are unlocked with any deposit, but are restricted to people who have never deposited. There are also some spin wheel tickets you can get on App and pc every day. However, there are thousands of players enrolled in every one of them, but I guess it's worth a gamble since it's free. I have not yet deposited so cannot tell you more about them, but I am planning to move some of my bankroll across to 888 and give it a shot shortly.
Pokerstars' own freerolls, I never got to like it and the amount of players for the small prizes was deemed not worth my time by my brain. CC freerolls on PS are amazing though apart from when a password gets leaked, which is really annoying as the dollars are split into very few cents for itm. So whoever shares a password, ruins a great game for everyone, including themselves.
GGPoker offers daily 25c tickets with a $1 ticket on Saturdays. No other freerolls, unless you register through an affiliate like Cardschat and then you can play that particular affiliate's freerolls. Very rarely there are streamers' freerolls. I found 2 in nearly a year.
SWC have many (various games, including horse, badugi, 2-7, PLO5 etc.) freerolls constantly with about 30-40 players, which are really easy to win. However, I haven't yet figured out how much I have won), but I have some numbers in yellow and green. From my calculations, not much, rather pennies so I decided it wasn't worth my time. Also, not much action going on if you haven't got a good bankroll to challenge the regs in OFC (open face chinese poker).
Ladbrokes and Coral had some great $1000 daily freerolls, but they banned me (out of nowhere) after building a small bankroll of about $40-50 in about a month from their freerolls. They accused me of cheating, and breaking of some random T&C's that had nothing to do with me. As I do not even know how to cheat and thought it must have been a misunderstanding, I have reported them to IBAS, requested proof of their allegations and after 8 months of wait I was told that they can do whatever they want as and when they please and since I didn't deposit anything, they have nothing to return to me. They provided no proof of my cheating or their allegations of me breaking anything, obviously because I didn't. I asked for my access to my accounts back and got flipped off instead. Dodgy is not a strong enough word to describe them. If anyone wants to think that I am indeed a cheater in any way, finding excuses, please save your time. It's incredibly frustrating when you play fair without any HUD's or any alternative helping software and you get all your work confiscated and banned without one single explanation, evidence or proof of your wrong doing and the association that is supposed to regulate these scammers, does not give a shite about you as a person, but sends you an official resolution document in which it states that there's nothing they can do.
Party Poker & BWin, I think still have their daily $1200 freeroll, restricted to depositors only, but with tournament tickets as prizes. I am just a bit weary of them as they are on the same network as Ladbrokes and Coral and I don't like the anxiety of anything like that happening to me again.
Other poker rooms (unibet, betfair, william hill, Grosvenor, Bet365 etc.) have regular $25 - $50 freerolls, and I tried a few but found better returns and way more fun in CardsChat ones.
I think that sums it up for me.

I usually just stick to 888, sometimes poker stars or ACR.

ACR and 888
The 888 site is a mother, it really has a lot of freerolls, some very fast, others not so much.
The ACR site has every day with a single value, a smaller, uniform field.
These two are the best I know. But I play freerolls on other platforms too like N8, Bet365, HightStakes and more.
